Maintain your water and dust resistant
feature
Your phone offers limited protection against accidental
exposure to water in some conditions, but you should
never intentionally immerse the phone in water.
Do not expose your phone to high water pressures or
•
any other liquids, such as salt water, ionized water or
dirty water.
If the phone gets wet, dry it thoroughly with a clean soft
•
cloth.
Ensure that all covers are properly aligned and tightly
•
closed.
Always keep the back cover, headset jack cover,
•
multifunction jack cover, and the area around them clean
and be careful to avoid damaging them. If these areas
become contaminated, they may not provide protection
from dust and water.
Any service performed on the phone may reduce the
•
water and dust protection. Avoid exposing the phone to
dust and water if any service has been performed on it.
Exposing the phone to extreme temperatures may
•
reduce the water and dust protection. Use your phone at
-20 °C to 50 °C.
The back, headset, and multifunction jack cover might
be opened slightly when the device get an unexpected
and unpredictable shock. Ensure that all the covers
are properly aligned and tightly closed. Otherwise,
they may not provide protections from water.
Install the SIM card and battery
Turn the screw anti-clockwise to unlock the back cover,
1.
and then remove the cover and insert the SIM card.
Insert the battery and replace the back cover, and turn
2.
the screw clockwise to lock the cover.
Charge the battery
Plug a travel adapter.
1.
When charging is
2.
finished, unplug the
travel adapter.
Do not remove the battery before removing the
•
travel adapter. Doing this may cause damage to
the phone.
To save energy, unplug the travel adapter when not
•
in use. The travel adapter does not have a power
switch, so you must unplug the travel adapter from
the outlet when not in use to avoid wasting power.
The travel adapter should remain close to the socket
when in use.
Insert a memory card (optional)
Your phone accepts microSD
™
or microSDHC
™
memory cards up to 16 GB (depending on memory card
manufacturer and type).
Formatting the memory card on a PC may cause
•
incompatibility with your phone. Format the memory
card only on the phone.
Frequent writing and erasing of data will shorten the
•
lifespan of memory cards.
Remove the back cover.
1.
Insert a memory card with the gold-coloured contacts
2.
facing down.
Push the memory card in the memory card slot and
