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 to 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. Inparticular 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 "handsfree" 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.
When replacing the cover please note that your phone may contain 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 cellular 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 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.
Parents should monitor their children’s use of video games. 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:
-  Take a minimum of a 15-minute break hourly.
-  Play in a room in which all lights are on.
-  Play at the farthest distance possible from the screen.
-  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.

When you play games on your phone, you may experience occasional discomfort 
in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. Follow the 
instructions to avoid problems such as tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or other 
musculoskeletal disorders.
