back cover and lift it up gently.

13

2. Hold the nano-SIM card with the cut corner oriented as

shown and slip them into the card holders.

14

WARNING!

To avoid damage to the phone, do not use any other kind of

SIM card, or any non-standard nano-SIM card cut from a SIM

service provider.

removing it.

1. Remove the back cover.

2. Hold your microSDHC card with the metal contacts facing

down and slide it in.

16

NOTE:

Some applications may require a microSDHC card to store

certain data on it and to work properly. Therefore, it is

recommended that you keep a microSDHC card installed and

not remove or replace it unnecessarily.

3. Replace the back cover.

17

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 will tell you the

exact battery level on the lock screen. See Locking/Unlocking the

Screen and Keys.

WARNING!

Use only ZTE-approved chargers and cables. The use of

unapproved accessories could damage your phone or cause the

battery to explode.

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

adapter is inserted with the correct orientation. Do not force

the connector into the charging jack.

18

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, you may be unable to power on

the phone even when it is being charged. In this case, try again

after charging the phone for at least 20 minutes. Contact

customer service if you still cannot power on the phone after

prolonged charging.

19

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 Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and auto-sync 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, and each query drains your battery.

Powering On/Off

 Press and hold the Power key to turn on your phone.

 To turn it off, press and hold the Power key to open the

options menu and touch Power off.

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.

Flick the language field to select the language. Then follow the

prompts to set up Wi-Fi, Google account, Google location and

other options.

20

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 a certain period of time when you leave it idle. You

will still be able to receive messages and calls while the phone

screen is off.

To unlock the screen and keys:

1. Press the Power key to turn the screen on.

2. Touch and hold the screen to unlock.

NOTE:

If you have set an unlock pattern, a PIN or a password for your

phone (see Protecting Your Phone With Screen Locks), draw the

pattern, or enter the PIN/password to unlock your phone.
