Safety And Use - Alcatel Move User Manual

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. In particular 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 "hands-free" 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 paint it.
Use only batteries, battery chargers, and accessories which are recommended by TCT Mobile Limited and its
affiliates and are compatible with your phone model. TCT Mobile Limited 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 exposed to flashing lights, or 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 or enabling a flashing-lights feature on your phone.
Parents should monitor their children's use of video games or other features that incorporate flashing lights on
the phones. 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:
▪ Do not play or use a flashing-lights feature if you are tired or need sleep.
▪ 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.
Prolonged exposure to music at full volume on the music player may damage the listener's hearing. Set
your phone volume safely. Use only headphones recommended by TCT Mobile Limited and its affiliates.
