Installing the micro-UIM Card and
Battery

removing or replacing the battery.
WARNING!
To avoid damage to the phone, do not use any other kind of SIM
15
cards, or any non-standard micro-UIM card cut from a SIM card.
You can get a standard micro-UIM card from your service
provider.
1. Insert your fingernail into the slot at the bottom right of the
back cover and lift it up gently.
2. Hold the micro-SIM card with the cut corner oriented as
shown and slip it into the card holder.
16
3. Insert the battery by aligning the metal contacts on the battery
with the metal contacts in the battery compartment. Gently
push down on the battery until it clicks into place.
4. Align the back cover with the back of the phone and press the
cover back into place. Ensure that all the tabs are secure and
there are no gaps around the cover.
18
NOTE:
Some applications may require a microSDHC card to work
normally or may store certain data on it. Therefore, it is
recommended that you keep a microSDHC card installed and
not remove or replace it randomly.
3. Replace the back cover.
Charging the Battery
Your phone’s battery should have enough power for the phone to
turn on, find a signal, and make a few calls. You should fully
charge the battery as soon as possible.
If the battery is low, there will be a pop-up message on the
screen. As you charge your phone, the screen will tell you the
exact battery level each time you wake up your phone.
WARNING!
19
Use only ZTE-approved chargers and cables. The use of
unapproved accessories could damage your phone or cause the
battery to explode.
1. Connect the adapter to the charging/micro-USB jack. Ensure
that the adapter is inserted with the correct orientation. Do not
use force.
2. Connect the charger to a standard AC power outlet. If the
phone is on, you’ll see a charging icon, such as or ,
appear on the status bar.
3. Disconnect the charger when the battery is fully charged.
NOTE:
20
If the battery is extremely low, you may be unable to power on
the phone even when it is being charged. In this case, try again
after charging the phone for at least 20 minutes. Contact the
customer service if you still cannot power on the phone after
prolonged charging.
Extending the Battery Life
Active applications, screen brightness levels, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi
usage and GPS functionality can drain your battery. You can
follow the helpful tips below to conserve your battery power:
Reduce the screen backlight time.
Lower the screen brightness.
Turn Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and auto-sync off when not in use.
Disable the GPS function when not in use. Most applications
using this function will periodically query the GPS satellites
for your current location, and each query drains your battery.
Powering On/Off
Press and hold the Power Key to turn on your phone.
To turn it off, press and hold the Power Key to open the
options menu and touch Power off.
