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 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 phone
when the vehicle is not parked�
When driving, do not use your phone and headset to listen to music
or to the radio. Using a headset 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 phone RF energy.
• CONDITIONS OF USE:
You are advised to switch off the phone 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, phones 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 an
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 phone away from your ear while
using the "hands-free" mode because the amplified volume might
cause hearing damage.
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine
if operation of your phone may interfere with the operation of your
medical device.
In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted
signs to turn off wireless devices such as your phone or other radio
equipment. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include
fuelling areas, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or
storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles,
such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Turn off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a blasting area
or in areas posted with notifications requesting "two-way radios" or
"electronic devices" are turned off to avoid interfering with blasting
operations.
Do not let children use the phone and/or play with the phone and
accessories without supervision.
If your phone has a removable cover, note that your phone may
contain substances that could create an allergic reaction.
If your phone is a unibody device, the back cover and battery are
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 (14°F) to +55°C (131°F).
At over 55°C (131°F) the legibility of the phone’s display may be
impaired, though this is temporary and not serious.
Do not open, dismantle, or attempt to repair your phone yourself.
Do not drop, throw, or bend your 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 backup copies or keep a written record of all
important information stored on your phone.
