Getting Started
Installing the nano-UIM Card (Included)
The nano-UIM card can be installed or removed while the
phone is turned on.
Power off your phone before removing or replacing the battery.
NOTE:
Your phone will come with the nano-UIM card already
installed.
WARNING!
To avoid damage to the phone, do not use any
other kind of UIM cards, or any non-standard nano-UIM card
cut from a UIM card. You can get a standard nano-UIM card
from your service provider.
1. Insert your ngernail into the bottom left corner of the back
cover and lift it up gently.
12
2. Hold the nano-UIM card with the cut corner oriented as
shown and slide it into the card slot.

bottom left corner of the back
cover and lift it up gently.
2. Hold the microSDHC card with the
metal contacts facing down and the
cut corner oriented as shown, and

cover and lift it up gently.
2. Insert the battery by aligning the metal contacts on the

14
Charging the Phone
Your phone’s battery should have enough power for the phone
to turn on, nd a signal, and make a few calls. You should fully
charge the battery as soon as possible.
WARNING!
Use only ZTE-approved chargers and USB cables.
The use of unapproved accessories could damage your phone
or cause the battery to explode.
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 the customer service if you still cannot power on the
phone after prolonged charging.

• Remember the pattern, PIN or password you set.
Otherwise, you will have to upgrade the phone software to
use the phone.
Protecting Your Phone With Encryption
You can encrypt all the data on your phone: your accounts,
application data, music and other media, downloaded
information, and so on. If you do, you must draw an unlock
pattern, or enter a numeric PIN or a password each time you
power on your phone.
WARNING!
Encryption is irreversible. The only way to revert to
an unencrypted phone is to perform a factory data reset, which
erases all your data.
33
Encryption provides additional protection in case your phone
is stolen, and may be required or recommended in some
organizations. Consult your system administrator before turning
it on. In many cases the pattern, PIN or password you set for
encryption is controlled by the system administrator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
• Set a screen lock pattern, PIN or password.
• Charge the battery.
• Keep the phone connected to the charger.
• Schedule an hour or more for the encryption process: you
must not interrupt it or you will lose some or all of your data.
When you’re ready to turn on encryption:
1. Swipe up from the bottom of the home screen and tap
Settings > Security > Encrypt phone
.
2. Read the information about encryption carefully.
The
ENCRYPT PHONE
button is dimmed if your battery is
not charged or your phone’s not plugged in.
If you change your mind about encrypting your phone,
touch the
Back
key.
WARNING!
If you interrupt the encryption process, you will
lose data.
34
3. Touch
ENCRYPT PHONE
.
4. Draw your screen lock pattern or enter your PIN or
password,
5. Touch
ENCRYPT PHONE
again.
The encryption process starts. Encryption can take an hour or
more, during which time your phone may restart several times.
When encryption is completed, you’re prompted to draw the
unlock pattern, or enter your PIN or password.
Subsequently you must draw your unlock pattern, or enter your
PIN or password each time you power on your phone in order
to decrypt it.
Protecting Your Phone With Screen Pinning
You can use the screen pinning feature to keep an app in view,
so others cannot switch to other apps or access your personal
information.

FCC RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the
emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy
set by the Federal Communications Commission of the United
States.
During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its
highest certied power level in all tested frequency bands,
and placed in positions that simulate RF exposure in usage
against the head with no separation, and near the body with
the separation of 10 mm. Although the SAR is determined at
the highest certied power level, the actual SAR level of the
device while operating can be well below the maximum value.
This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple
power levels so as to use only the power required to reach
the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base
station antenna, the lower the power output.
The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit
of measurement is known as the Specic Absorption Rate, or
SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.
This device is complied with SAR for general population /
uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 and had
been tested in accordance with the measurement methods and
procedures specied in IEEE1528.
153
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this
model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR
information on this model phone is on le with the FCC and
can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/
oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: SRQ-Z3001S.
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage
against the head is 1.19 W/kg, and for usage near the body is
1.15 W/kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all meet the
government requirements.
SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a
separation distance of 15 mm between the unit and the human
body. Carry this device at least 15 mm away from your body to
ensure RF exposure level compliant or lower to the reported
level. To support body-worn operation, choose the belt clips or
holsters, which do not contain metallic components, to maintain
a separation of 15 mm between this device and your body.
RF exposure compliance with any body-worn accessory, which
contains metal, was not tested and certied, and using such
body-worn accessory should be avoided.
154
FCC Regulations
This mobile phone complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This
device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
This mobile phone has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to
try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
155
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
CAUTION:
Changes or modications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-
located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations
for Mobile Phones
In 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless
telephones compatible with hearing aids and cochlear implants.
Although analog wireless phones do not usually cause
interference with hearing aids or cochlear implants, digital
wireless phones sometimes do because of electromagnetic
energy emitted by the phone’s antenna, backlight, or other
156
components. Your phone is compliant with FCC HAC
regulations (ANSI C63.19- 2011). While some wireless phones
are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and
cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or
whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than
others to this interference noise and phones also vary in the
amount of interference they generate. The wireless telephone
industry has developed a rating system for wireless phones
to assist hearing device users in nding phones that may be
compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have
been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their box
or a label located on the box. The ratings are not guarantees.
Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing device and
hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable
to interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone
successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is
the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids
for some of the wireless technologies that it uses. However,
there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this
phone that have not been tested yet for use with hearing
157
aids. It is important to try the different features of this phone
thoroughly and in different locations, using your hearing aid
or cochlear implant, to determine if you hear any interfering
noise. Consult your service provider or the manufacturer of
this phone for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you
have questions about return or exchange policies, consult your
service provider or phone retailer.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements
and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices
than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the
two ratings.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and
are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil
(“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is
the better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing
devices have telecoils in them.)
Your phone meets the M4/T4 level rating.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device
manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you
nd this rating. For more information about FCC Hearing Aid
Compatibility, please go to http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.
