Starting Up

Installing the microSD Card and Battery

Switch off your phone before installing or replacing the battery

or microSD card. The microSD card is pre-installed in the

handset.

13

1. Remove the back cover.

2. Hold your microSD card with the metal contacts facing

down and slide it in.

NOTE: The microSD logo is a trademark of the

SD Card Association.

14

3. Insert the battery by aligning the gold contacts on the

battery with the gold contacts in the battery compartment.

Gently push down on the battery until it clicks into place.

4. Press the cover gently back into place until you hear a

click.

Removing the Battery and microSD Card

1. Make sure that your mobile phone is off.

2. Remove the back cover.

3. Lift the battery up and out.

4. Slide the microSD card out.

15

Charging the Battery

When you first get your new phone you’ll need to charge the

battery.

1. Connect the adapter to the charger jack. Ensure that the

adapter is inserted with the correct orientation. Do not

force the connector into the charger jack.

2. Connect the charger to a standard AC wall outlet.

3. Disconnect the charger when the battery is fully charged.

NOTE: Use only ZTE-approved batteries and chargers with

your phone. The failure to use a ZTE-approved battery and

charger may increase the risk that your phone will overheat,

catch fire or explode, resulting in serious bodily injury, death

or property damage.

16

How much charge have you got?

If the battery is low, there will be a pop-up message on the

screen. As you charge your phone, the screen will tell you the

exact battery level each time you wake up your phone.

If the phone is on, you’ll see this charging icon

/ appear

on the status bar. As soon as the charging is completed, this

icon

appears on the status bar.

Extending the Battery Life

Active applications, screen brightness levels, Bluetooth and

Wi-Fi usage and GPS functionality can drain your battery.

You can follow the helpful tips below to conserve your battery

power:

• Reduce the screen backlight time.

• Lower the screen brightness.

• Turn Bluetooth off when not in use.

• Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use.

• Disable the GPS function when not in use. Most

applications using this function will periodically query the

GPS satellites for your current location; each query drains

your battery.

• When taking pictures, do not use a flash unless you have

to.

17

Switching Your Phone On/Off

Make sure the battery is charged.

• Press and hold the Power Key to switch on your phone.

• To switch it off, press and hold the Power Key to get the

phone options. Touch Power off, and then touch OK.

Setting Up Your Phone for the First Time

When you first power on your phone after you purchase it or

reset it to factory settings (see Sorting out Your Phone

Settings – Privacy: Reset to Factory Settings), you need to

adjust some settings before using it.

want to use, if needed.

2. Touch the Android robot on the screen.

3. Touch Activate and listen to the instructions provided to

activate your phone.

4. Create a Google Account or Sign in your account.

You can also touch Skip to set up an account later.

5. Configure the Google location options and touch Next.

Switching to Sleep Mode

To save battery power, Sleep Mode suspends your phone to

a low-power-consumption state while the display is off. Your

phone also goes into Sleep Mode by itself when the display

18

is automatically turned off after a certain period of time, which

you can set in Settings > Display > Screen timeout.

Press the Power Key to switch to Sleep Mode.

Waking Up Your Phone

1. Press the Power Key to activate your screen display.

2. Drag the

icon to the right to unlock the screen.

NOTE: If you have set an unlock pattern, PIN or password for

your phone (see chapter Sorting out Your Phone Settings –

Security Settings), you’ll need to draw the pattern or enter the

PIN/password to unlock your screen.

Getting Around Your Phone

icons, or press onscreen buttons, simply touch them with

your finger.

19

at once and pinching them together (to zoom out) or

spreading them apart (to zoom in).

• Rotate the screen

For most screens, you can automatically change the

screen orientation from portrait to landscape by turning

the phone sideways.

own wallpaper, add the widgets, folders or application

shortcuts you need, or remove them as you like.
