Safety and use ..............................
We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your cellphone. 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 cellphone 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
cellphone when the vehicle is not parked. Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless
cellphones and their accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. The use of these
devices may be prohibited or restricted in certain areas.
When driving, do not use your cellphone 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 cellphone 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 cellphone 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 car’s electronic devices
are shielded from cellphone RF energy.
CONDITIONS OF USE:
•
You are advised to switch off the cellphone from time to time to optimize its performance.
Remember to abide by local authority rules of cellphone use on aircrafts.
Switch the cellphone off when you are in health care facilities, except in designated areas. As with
many other types of equipment now in regular use, cellphones can interfere with other electrical
or electronic devices, or equipment using radio frequency.
Switch the cellphone off when you are near gas or flammable liquids. Strictly obey all signs and
instructions posted in a fuel depot, gas station, or chemical plant, or in any potentially explosive
atmosphere.
When the cellphone 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. In particular when using the cellphone you should
hold it against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any.
To avoid hearing impairment, answer the call before holding your cellphone to your ear. Also
move the handset away from your ear while using the “hands-free” option because the amplified
volume might cause hearing damage. It is recommended to have proper supervision while small
children use your cellphone.
When replacing the cover please note that your cellphone may contain substances that could
create an allergic reaction.
Always handle your cellphone with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place.
5
6
Do not allow your cellphone 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 (the max value depends on device, materials and
housing paint/texture).
Over 55°C the legibility of the cellphone’s display may be impaired, though this is temporary and
not serious.
Do not open or attempt to repair your cellphone yourself.
Do not drop, throw or try to bend your cellphone.
Do not paint it.
Use only batteries, battery chargers, and accessories which are recommended by
TCT Mobile Limited and its affiliates and are compatible with your cellphone model.
TCT Mobile Limited and its affiliates disclaim any liability for damage caused by the use of other
chargers or batteries.
Your cellphone should not be disposed of in a municipal waste. Please check local regulations for
disposal of electronic products.
Remember to make back-up copies or keep a written record of all important information stored
in your cellphone.
Some people may suffer epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to flashing lights, or when
playing video games. 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 playing video games on your cellphone or
enabling a flashing-lights feature on your cellphone. Parents should monitor their children’s use of
video games or other features that incorporate flashing lights on the cellphones.
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:
- Play at the farthest distance possible from the screen.
When you play games on your cellphone, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands,
arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. Follow these instructions to avoid problems
such as tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or other musculoskeletal disorders:
- Take a minimum of a 15-minute break every hour of game playing.
- 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.
Prolonged exposure to music at full volume using the music player may damage your hearing.
Set your cellphone’s volume to it’s lowest setting prior to inserting headphones in your
ears and adjust the volume to your preference. Only use headphones that are
recommended by TCT Mobile Limited and it’s affiliates.
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 cellphone regarding taking photographs and recording
sounds with your cellphone. 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 reproduce 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 authorization 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 cellphone (including the operator) disclaim any liability
which may result from the improper use of the cellphone.
BATTERY AND ACCESSORIES:
•
Before removing the battery from your cellphone, please make sure that the cellphone 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 the garbage 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.

RADIO WAVES:
Battery:
•
THIS CELLPHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO
WAVES.
Your cellphone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed
the emission limits for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy.
These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for
the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These
guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless
of age and health.
The exposure standard for cellphones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by public authorities such as the Federal Communications
Commission of the US Government (FCC), or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram
of body tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the cellphone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the
cellphone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the cellphone is
designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power
output of the cellphone
Before a cellphone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with national regulations
and standards must be shown.
The highest SAR value for this model cellphone when tested is 0.592 W/Kg (OT-806A), 0.636
W/Kg (OT-807A) for use at the ear and 0.976 W/Kg (OT-806A), 1.17 W/Kg (OT-807A) for use
close to the body.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various cellphones and at various
positions, they all meet the government requirement for RF exposure. For body-worn operation,
the cellphone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a non-metallic
accessory with the handset at least 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific information does not
indicate the need for any special precautions for use of cellphones. 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 cellphones away from the head and body. (fact sheet n°193).
Additional WHO information about electromagnetic fields and public health are available on the
following website: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
9
For the receiver devices associated with the operation of a licensed radio service (e.g. FM
broadcast), they bear the following statement:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this
device does not cause harmful interference.
For other devices, they bear the following statement:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Your cellphone 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 cellphone at least 2cm away from the body.
