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 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.
Please note the battery of your phone is not removable. If you disassemble

your phone the warranty will not apply. Disassembling the phone may damage

the battery, and may cause leakage of 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 mobile 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, 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

phone or enabling a flashing-lights feature on your phone.
