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.
