Safety and use ��

We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using

your phone. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage, which

may result as a consequence of improper use or use contrary to the

instructions contained herein.

• TRAFFIC SAFETY:

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:

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 the

“hands-free” mode because the amplified volume might cause hearing

damage.

Do not let children use the phone and/or play with the telephone and

accessories without supervision.

When replacing the cover please note that your phone may contain

substances that could create an allergic reaction.

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.

At over 55°C the legibility of the phone’s display may be impaired, though

this is temporary and not serious.

Emergency call numbers may not be reachable on all cellular networks. You

should never rely only on your phone for emergency calls.

Do not open, dismantle or attempt to repair your mobile phone yourself.

Do not drop, throw or bend your mobile phone.

Do not use the phone if the glass made screen, is damaged, cracked or

broken to avoid any injury.

Do not paint it.

Use only batteries, battery chargers, and accessories which are recommended

by TCL Communication Ltd and its affiliates and are compatible with your

phone model. TCL Communication Ltd and its affiliates disclaim any liability

for damage caused by the use of other chargers or batteries.

Remember to make back-up copies or keep a written record of all

important information stored in your phone.

Some people may suffer epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to

flashing lights. These seizures or blackouts may occur even if a person never

had a previous 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 enabling a flashing-lights feature on your phone.

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:

- 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.

• PRIVACY:

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.

• 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 TCL Communication Ltd 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.

They are also compliant to the ecodesign directive 2009/125/EC. 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.

Due to the used enclosure material, the mobile phone shall only be connected

to a USB Interface of version 2.0 or higher. The connection to so called power

USB is prohibited.The adapter shall be installed near the equipment and shall

be easily accessible. This charger is for indoor use only.

• RADIO WAVES:

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 DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE

TO RADIO WAVES

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed

not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency

electromagnetic fields) recommended by international guidelines. The

guidelines were developed by an independent scientific organization

(ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the

safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known

as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices

is 2 W/kg.

Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with

the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested

frequency bands. The highest SAR values under the ICNIRP guidelines for

this device model are:

Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it

was recorded�

Head SAR GSM900 0.686 W/kg

Body-worn SAR GSM900 0.360 W/kg

During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well below

the values stated above. This is because, for purposes of system efficiency

and to minimize interference on the network, the operating power of your

mobile device is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for

the call. The lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR value.

Body-worn SAR testing has been carried out at a separation distance of

1.0 cm. To meet RF exposure guidelines during body-worn operation, the

device should be positioned at least this distance away from the body.

If you are not using an approved accessory ensure that whatever product

is used is free of any metal and that it positions the phone the indicated

distance away from the body.

Organizations such as the World Health Organization and the US Food and

Drug Administration have stated that if people are concerned and want to

reduce their exposure they could use a hands-free device to keep the phone

away from the head and body during phone calls, or reduce the amount of

time spent on the phone.

For more information you can go to www.alcatelonetouch.com

Additional information about electromagnetic fields and public health are

available on the following site: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.

Your telephone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation,

you should avoid touching it or degrading it.

As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in positions

other than against your ear. In such circumstances the device will be

compliant with the guidelines when used with headset or usb data cable.

If you are using another accessory ensure that whatever product is used

is free of any metal and that it positions the phone at least 1.0 cm away

from the body.
