seizure or blackout. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family history  
of such occurrences, please consult your doctor before playing video games on your phone or  
enabling a flashing-lights feature on your phone.  
Given that studies show that using a mobile phone while driving a vehicle constitutes a real risk,  
even when the hands-free kit is used (car kit, headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from using  
their mobile when the vehicle is not parked.  
When driving, do not use your phone and headphone to listen to music or to the radio. Using a  
headphone can be dangerous and forbidden in some areas.  
When switched on, your phone emits electromagnetic waves that can interfere with the vehicle’s  
electronic systems such as ABS anti-lock brakes or airbags.To ensure that there is no problem:  
-
-
do not place your phone on top of the dashboard or within an airbag deployment area,  
check with your car dealer or the car manufacturer to make sure that the dashboard is  
adequately shielded from mobile phone RF energy.  
CONDITIONS OF USE:  
Parents should monitor their children’s use of video games or other features that incorporate  
flashing lights on the phones.All persons should discontinue use and consult a doctor if any of the  
following symptoms occur: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary  
movements, or disorientation.To limit the likelihood of such symptoms, please take the following  
safety precautions:  
You are advised to switch off the telephone from time to time to optimise its performance.  
Switch the phone off before boarding an aircraft.  
Switch the phone off when you are in health care facilities, except in designated areas.As with many  
other types of equipment now in regular use, mobile telephones can interfere with other electrical  
or electronic devices, or equipment using radio frequency.  
Switch the phone off when you are near gas or flammable liquids. Strictly obey all signs and  
instructions posted in a fuel depot, petrol station, or chemical plant, or in any potentially explosive  
atmosphere.  
When the phone is switched on, it should be kept at least 15 cm from any medical device such as  
a pacemaker, a hearing aid or insulin pump, etc. In particular when using the phone, you should hold  
it against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any.  
To avoid hearing impairment, pick up the call before holding your phone to your ear.Also move the  
handset away from your ear while using thehands-free” mode because the amplified volume might  
cause hearing damage.  
-
-
-
-
-
Do not play or use a flashing-lights feature if you are tired or need sleep.  
Take a minimum of a 15-minute break hourly.  
Play in a room in which all lights are on.  
Play at the farthest distance possible from the screen.  
If your hands, wrists, or arms become tired or sore while playing, stop and rest for several hours  
before playing again.  
-
If you continue to have sore hands, wrists, or arms during or after playing, stop the game and see  
a doctor.  
When you play games on your phone, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands,  
arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. Follow the instructions to avoid problems such  
as tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or other musculoskeletal disorders.  
Do not let children use the phone without supervision.  
When replacing the cover please note that your phone may contain substances that could create  
an allergic reaction.  
Prolonged exposure to music at full volume on the music player may damage the listener's  
hearing.  
Always handle your phone with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place.  
Do not allow your phone to be exposed to adverse weather or environmental conditions  
(moisture, humidity, rain, infiltration of liquids, dust, sea air, etc).The manufacturer’s recommended  
operating temperature range is -10°C to +55°C.  
Set your phone volume safely. Use only headphones recommended by TCT Mobile Limited and its  
affiliates.

PRIVACY:  
RADIO WAVES:  
Please note that you must respect the laws and regulations in force in your jurisdiction or other  
jurisdiction(s) where you will use your mobile phone regarding taking photographs and recording  
sounds with your mobile telephone. Pursuant to such laws and regulations, it may be strictly  
forbidden to take photographs and/or to record the voices of other people or any of their personal  
attributes, and duplicate or distribute them, as this may be considered to be an invasion of privacy.  
It is the user's sole responsibility to ensure that prior authorisation be obtained, if necessary, in  
order to record private or confidential conversations or take a photograph of another person; the  
manufacturer, the seller or vendor of your mobile phone (including the operator) disclaim any  
liability which may result from the improper use of the mobile phone.  
Proof of compliance with international standards (ICNIRP) or with European Directive 1999/5/EC  
(R&TTE) is required of all mobile phone models before they can be put on the market. The  
protection of the health and safety for the user and any other person is an essential requirement  
of these standards or this directive.  
THIS MOBILE PHONE COMPLIESWITH INTERNATIONALAND EUROPEAN REQUIREMENTS  
REGARDING EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.  
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter/receiver. It was designed and manufactured to comply  
with the radiofrequency (RF) exposure thresholds recommended by international requirements  
(1)  
(2)  
(ICNIRP) and by the Council of the European Union (Recommendation 1999/519/EC)  
.
These limits are part of a set of requirements and establish authorised radiofrequency levels for  
the public.These limits were established by independent groups of experts on the basis of regular  
and detailed scientific assessments.They include a significant safety margin intended to ensure the  
safety of all, regardless of age or state of health.  
The exposure standard for mobile phones is determined by a measurement unit known as the  
Specific Absorption Rate or “SAR”.The SAR limit is set by international requirements or by the  
Council of the European Union at 2 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of body tissue.  
The tests used to determine SAR levels were carried out on the basis of standard usage modes  
with the phones transmitting at their maximum power level over the entire range of frequency  
bands.  
Although the SAR was established at the highest certified level, the actual SAR level for the mobile  
phone during use is generally much lower than the maximum values. In fact, since mobile phones  
are designed to operate at many different power levels, they only use the minimum level of power  
required to provide a connection to the network. In theory, the closer you are to a base station  
antenna, the lower the power level required by the mobile phone.  
BATTERY:  
Before removing the battery from your phone, please make sure that the phone is switched off.  
Observe the following precautions for battery use:  
-
-
-
Do not attempt to open the battery (due to the risk of toxic fumes and burns).  
Do not puncture, disassemble or cause a short-circuit in a battery,  
Do not burn or dispose of a used battery in household rubbish or store it at temperatures above  
60 °C.  
Batteries must be disposed of in accordance with locally applicable environmental regulations. Only  
use the battery for the purpose for which it was designed. Never use damaged batteries or those  
not recommended by TCT Mobile Limited and/or its affiliates.  
This symbol on your telephone, the battery and the accessories means that these  
products must be taken to collection points at the end of their life:  
- Municipal waste disposal centres with specific bins for these items of equipment  
- Collection bins at points of sale.  
They will then be recycled, preventing substances being disposed of in the environment, so that  
their components can be reused.  
In European Union countries:  
These collection points are accessible free of charge.  
All products with this sign must be brought to these collection points.  
In non European Union jurisdictions:  
Items of equipment with this symbol are not to be thrown into ordinary bins if your jurisdiction  
or your region has suitable recycling and collection facilities; instead they are to be taken to  
collection points for them to be recycled.  
CAUTION: RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE.  
DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS  
CHARGERS  
Mains powered chargers will operate within the temperature range of: 0 °C to 40 °C.  
The chargers designed for your mobile phone meet with the standard for safety of information  
technology equipment and office equipment use. Due to different applicable electrical  
specifications, a charger you purchased in one jurisdiction may not work in another jurisdiction.  
They should be used for this purpose only.  
(1)  
The ICNIRP requirements are applicable in the following regions:  
Central America (except Mexico), South America, North and South  
Africa, Pacific Asia (except Korea),Australia.

The highest tested SAR value for this mobile phone for use at the ear and compliance against the  
standard is 1.0 W/kg.While there may be differences between the SAR levels on various phones  
and at various positions, they all meet the relevant International guidelines and EU requirements  
for RF (radio-waves) exposure.  
The World Health Organisation (WHO) considers that present scientific information does not  
indicate the need for any special precautions for use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned,  
they might choose to limit their own or their children’s RF exposure by limiting the length of calls,  
or using “hands-free” devices to keep mobile phones away from the head and body (fact sheet n°  
193). Additional information about electromagnetic fields and public health are available on the
