Please read the user manual carefully in order to make the products in best condition. Images we use in this manual are only used to demonstrate the mobile phones functions, so they might be a bit different from what you see on your phone. Please take your handset as the standard. If content of brochure have some different from actual item caused by updating, ZTE Corporation reserves the right to make modifications on print errors or update specifications in this guide without prior notice. Your Safety This section includes some important information on safe and efficient operation. Please read this information before using the phone. Operational Precautions Please use your phone properly. When making or receiving a call, please hold your phone as holding a wire telephone. Make sure that the phone is at least one inch (about two point five centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Do not touch the antenna when the phone is in use. Touching the antenna area affects call quality and 8 may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than needed. Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to flashing lights, such as when watching television or playing video games. 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-light feature on your phone. (The flashing
-light feature is not available on all products.) FCC Compliance This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this device does not cause harmful interference. Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the users authority to operate the equipment. 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 9 guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful 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. Health and safety information Radio Frequency (RF) Energy This model phone meets the governments requirements for exposure to radio waves. This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government:
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone 10 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 phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 1.16 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.14 W/kg (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available enhancements and FCC requirements.) While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: Q78-UV760 For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an 11 accessory that contains no metal and the positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from your body when the phone is switched on. Distraction Driving Full attention must be given to driving at all times in order to reduce the risk of an accident. Using a phone while driving
(even with a hands free kit) can cause distraction and lead to an accident. You must comply with local laws and regulations restricting the use of wireless devices while driving. Operating Machinery Full attention must be given to operating the machinery in order to reduce the risk of an accident. 12 Product Handling General Statement on Handling and Use You alone are responsible for how you use your phone and any consequences of its use. You must always switch off your phone wherever the use of a phone is prohibited. Use of your phone is subject to safety measures designed to protect users and their environment. Always treat your phone and its accessories with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place. Do not expose your phone or its accessories to open flames or lit tobacco products. Do not expose your phone or its accessories to liquid, moisture or high humidity. Do not drop, throw or try to bend your phone or its accessories.

Please use original accessories or accessories approved by the phone manufacturer. Using any unauthorized accessories may affect your mobile phones performance, damage your phone or even cause danger to your body and violate related local regulations about telecom terminals. Some electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic interference sent by phone if inadequately shielded. Please use phone at least 20 cm or as far away as you can from TV set, radio and other automated office equipment so as to avoid electromagnetic interference. Operating phone may interfere with medical devices like hearing aids and pacemakers, or other medical devices in hospital. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device before using phone. Be aware of the usage limitation when using phone at places such as oil warehouses, or chemical factories, where there are explosive gases or explosive products being processed, because even if your phone is in idle state, it still transmits radio frequency
(RF) energy. Therefore power off your phone if required. 14 Keep the antenna free from obstructions and position the antenna straight up. This will ensure best call quality. Small Children Do not leave your phone and its accessories within the reach of small children or allow them to play with it. They could hurt themselves or others, or could accidentally damage the phone. Your phone contains small parts with sharp edges that may cause an injury or may become detached and create a choking hazard.
