Getting started

What is the SIM card?

When registering your mobile phone number, you will have a SIM card (Subscriber Identity Module) provided by the network supplier.
With the SIM card, which stores many parameters required for communication, you can use the various functions of the phone and store personal information, including PIN (Personal Identification Number), phonebook, message and other additional system services.
Please handle the SIM card with care, twisting or pressing it may cause damage. If it is lost, please contact your network operator immediately for help.

Installing your SIM card

Switch off your phone before installing the SIM card. To install the SIM card at the back of the phone, follow the steps below:
1. Turn the phone over to the back and remove the battery by pushing up the battery latch.
2. With the metal contacts of the SIM card downward and the unfilled corner against the one within the groove, put the card into the groove gently and push it down until it doesn't move.
3. Insert the bottom of the battery into the fastening groove of the phone, and push it down until the top latch of the battery is locked..

PIN1

It is Personal Identification Number used to access your SIM card. If PIN1 protection function has been enabled, the screen will display “Enter PIN:” when switched on.
You can get PIN1 code while obtaining the SIM card from your network supplier, which usually has 4 digits.
During input of PIN1 code, the screen will display “*” to substitute the inputted content.

PIN2

It is a Personal Identification Number required when using specific functions provided by the network, such as charge information etc.

Charging your battery

Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The full performance of a new battery is achieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge cycles. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will eventually wear out. When the talk and standby times are noticeably shorter than normal, replace the battery. Uses only approved batteries, and recharge your battery only with approved chargers designated for this device.
If a replacement battery is being used for the first time or if the battery has not been used for a prolonged period, it may be necessary to connect the charger and then disconnect and reconnect it to begin charging the battery.
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the device when not in use. Do not leave a fully charged battery connected to a charger, since overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge over time.
If the battery is completely discharged, it may take a few minutes before the charging indicator appears on the display or before any calls can be made.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery that is damaged.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object such as a coin, clip, or pen causes direct connection of the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the battery. (These look like metal strips on the battery.) This might happen, for example, when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the connecting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). A device with a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged. Battery performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode.
Batteries may also explode if damaged. Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Please recycle when possible. Do not dispose as household waste.

Procedure for battery charging

■ Connect the charger to a main socket, and insert the charging plug into the left-side socket of the phone in proper direction.
■ The phone will display "Charger Connected!" and start charging after properly connected. The battery icon will display the charging process dynamically.
■ Under switch-off state, the phone will display the charging process dynamically.
■ When fully charged, charging process stops automatically, and the battery icon indicates full grid on the screen. After the battery is fully charged, please unplug the phone as soon as possible and take off the charging plug.

Note:
1. After the phone has run out of battery, we recommend you recharge in time. If you did not recharge in two days, the phone may enter into slow charging mode when you recharge the battery and there will be no display temporarily.
After about 10 minutes, the charging indicator icon will be displayed on the screen of the phone.
If it's more than two days, the battery may enter into overdischarge protection state and at this time in order to get the battery into normal charging mode quickly, we recommend you charge the battery on an adapter and activate the battery for charging. Then charge the battery with the phone. Alternatively, you can charge the battery with the adapter separately.
2. To ensure safety, neither change the parts and accessories of the battery by yourself nor take off the battery shell.
3. We suggest you only use the original battery supplied with your phone by our company to avoid any damage to your phone.
4. The temperature range for charging the phone is 0ºC -40ºC. Do not charge the battery in too high or too low temperature.

5. When charging, Please don’t use the mobile phone, keep the handset away from charger before you using it.

6. Please don’t keep charging a long time; pull out the charger quickly after the battery is fully charged.
