Installing the nano-SIM Cards and
microSDXC Card
Your phone supports two nano-SIM cards, or you can use one
nano-SIM card and one microSDXC card (optional, not included).
A microSDXC card can be installed or removed while the phone
is turned on. You need to unmount the microSDXC card before
removing it. See Using the microSDXC Card as Portable
Storage.
WARNING!
To avoid damage to the phone, do not use any other kind of SIM
cards, or any non-standard nano-SIM card cut from a SIM card.
You can get a standard nano-SIM card from your service
provider.
1. Insert the tip of the tray eject tool into the hole next to the
nano-SIM/microSDXC card tray on the left side of the phone.
15
2. Place the nano-SIM/microSDXC card on the tray with the
gold-colored contacts facing down. Then carefully slide the
tray back into place.
16
NOTE:
When two nano-SIM cards are installed, pay attention to the
following restrictions.
ï‚· If one nano-SIM card connects to 4G LTE, the other card can
only connect to 3G or 2G networks.
ï‚· You can use either card for mobile data service. See Manage
the nano-SIM Cards on how to switch.
ï‚· If one card is connected to a phone call, the other card is
unreachable.
Charging the Battery
Your phone’s battery should have enough power for the phone to
turn on, find a signal, and make a few calls. You should fully
charge the battery as soon as possible.
If the battery is low, there will be a pop-up message on the
screen. As you charge your phone, the screen can show you the
exact battery level on the status bar.
WARNING!
Use only ZTE-approved chargers and cables. The use of
unapproved accessories could damage your phone or cause the
battery to explode.
CAUTION:
Do not change the built-in rechargeable battery in your phone by
yourself. The battery can only be changed by ZTE or ZTE
authorized service provider.
1. Connect the adapter to the charging jack.
17
2. Connect the charger to a standard AC power outlet. If the
phone is on, you’ll see a charging icon, such as or ,
appear on the status bar.
3. Disconnect the charger when the battery is fully charged.
NOTE:
If the battery is extremely low, the phone may not power on even
while charging. In this case, charge the phone at least for 20
minutes before trying to power on again. Contact the customer
service if you still cannot power on the phone after prolonged
charging.
18
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:
ï‚· Use the Power manager feature in Settings.
ï‚· Reduce the screen backlight time.
ï‚· Lower the screen brightness.
ï‚· Turn Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and auto-sync off when not in use.
ï‚· Disable the GPS function when not in use. Most applications
using this function will periodically query the GPS satellites for
your current location, and each query drains your battery.
Powering On/Off
ï‚· Press and hold the Power key to turn on your phone.
ï‚· To power off, press and hold the Power key and touch Shut
down.
NOTE:
If the phone freezes or takes too long to respond, you can press
and hold the Power key for about 10 seconds to restart the
phone.
Setting Up for the First Time
When you first power on your phone after you purchase it or
reset it to factory settings (see Backup and Reset), you need to
do some settings before using it.
19
Touch the language field to select a language. Then follow the
prompts to set up Wi-Fi, name, Google services and other
options.
Locking/Unlocking the Screen and Keys
Your phone allows you to quickly lock the screen and keys (put
the phone to sleep mode) when not in use and to turn the screen
back on and unlock it when you need it.
To lock the screen and keys:
To quickly turn the screen off and lock the keys, press the Power
key.
NOTE:
To save battery power, the phone automatically turns off the
screen after some time of inactivity. You will still be able to
receive messages and calls while the phone screen is off.

2. Swipe up on the screen.
- or -

password for your phone (see Protecting Your Phone with
Screen Locks), you’ll need to press the Power key, draw the
pattern or enter the PIN/password to unlock your screen.
Using the Touch Screen
