Studies show using a mobile phone while driving is a real risk, even with hands-free kits. Drivers should refrain from using their mobile phone unless the vehicle is parked.

Check and obey local laws regarding wireless phone use while driving. Use may be prohibited or restricted.

Do not use the phone and headset to listen to music or radio while driving, as it can be dangerous and may be forbidden.

When switched on, the phone emits electromagnetic waves that could interfere with vehicle electronics like ABS or airbags. To ensure safety:

• Do not place your mobile phone on the dashboard or within an airbag deployment area.

• Check with your car dealer or manufacturer to ensure the vehicle’s electronic devices are shielded from mobile phone RF energy.

• Switch off the phone occasionally to optimize performance.

• Switch the phone off before boarding an aircraft.

• Switch off in health care facilities, except in designated areas, as mobile phones can interfere with medical devices.

• Switch off near gas or flammable liquids. Obey signs in fuel depots, petrol stations, chemical plants, or explosive atmospheres.

• Keep the phone at least 15 cm from medical devices (pacemakers, hearing aids, insulin pumps). Hold the phone to the ear opposite the device, if applicable.

• To avoid hearing impairment, pick up calls before holding the phone to your ear. Move the handset away during “hands-free” mode due to amplified volume.

• Do not let children use or play with the phone/accessories unsupervised.

• If the phone has a removable cover, be aware it may contain substances causing an allergic reaction.

• Handle the phone carefully; keep it clean and dust-free.

• Avoid exposure to adverse conditions (moisture, humidity, rain, liquids, dust, sea air). Recommended operating temperature: 0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104°F).

• Display legibility may be temporarily impaired above 40°C (104°F).

• Emergency numbers may not be reachable on all networks. Never rely solely on your phone for emergency calls.

• Do not dismantle or attempt self-repair.

• Do not drop, throw, or bend the phone.

• Do not use if the screen is damaged, cracked, or broken.

• Do not paint the phone.

• Use only recommended batteries, chargers, and accessories. Using others may cause damage and voids warranty.

• Back up important information regularly.

• Discontinue use and consult a doctor if symptoms like convulsion, eye/muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movements, or disorientation occur. To limit risks:

– Do not play if tired or need sleep.

– Take a 15-minute break hourly.

– Play in a well-lit room.

– Play at the farthest possible distance from the screen.

– Rest for several hours if hands/wrists/arms become tired or sore. See a doctor if soreness persists.

Respect local laws regarding photography and sound recording. It may be forbidden to photograph/record others’ voices or personal attributes and distribute them, potentially invading privacy. Obtain prior authorization if needed for recording private conversations or taking photos of others. The manufacturer, seller, and carrier disclaim liability for improper use.

Charge the battery first. Observe these precautions:

• Do not attempt to open the battery (risk of toxic fumes/burns).

CAUTION: RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS.

Home A.C./Travel chargers operate from 0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104°F).

They meet safety standards for IT and office equipment.

Due to differing electrical specifications, a charger from one region may not work in another. Use only for its intended purpose.

Power supply characteristics (country dependent):

• Travel charger: UC11US

• Input: 100-240V, 50/60Hz, 200mA

• Output: 5V, 1A

• Battery: Lithium 1850mAh typ

SAR compliance for body-worn operation requires a 15 mm separation distance. Carry the device at least 15 mm from your body.

Use belt clips or holsters without metallic components to maintain this separation.

Avoid body-worn accessories containing metal, as their RF exposure compliance has not been tested or certified.

If the equipment causes harmful interference (determine by turning it off/on), try these measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a different circuit from the receiver.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician.

Your phone has a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, avoid touching or degrading it.

Protecting your personal data is your responsibility. Do not share it with unauthorized devices.

• For Wi-Fi features, connect only to trusted networks.

• When using the phone as a hotspot, use network security.

• Personal info can be stored on SIM, memory card, and internal memory. Remove/clear all personal info before recycling, returning, or giving away the product.

• Choose apps and updates carefully; install only from trusted sources. Some apps can access private info (account details, call data, location, network resources).

Access, review, and edit your personal information by logging into your user account, visiting your user profile, or contacting the provider directly. If you request editing or deletion, you may be asked for proof of identity.

Go to Settings > Device > Regulatory & Safety or press *#07# on the keypad to find labeling information, including the FCC ID.

The IMEI (phone serial number) is shown on the packaging label and in the phone’s memory. Find it by entering *#06# on the keypad.

Note this number when you first use the phone and keep it safe. It may be requested by police or your carrier if the phone is stolen. The IMEI allows the phone to be blocked, preventing use even with a different SIM card.
