Getting Started

Inserting the SIM card and battery

When you register with a service provider, you receive a SIM card (Subscriber Identity Module card). Your phone must have a SIM card in order to make calls. The SIM card is a computer chip that contains your phone number, phonebook information, and service provider information. Handle it with care and do not bend it or expose it to static electricity or dirt. Be sure the power to your phone is off before you insert your SIM card.

The SIM card slot is situated underneath the battery. To insert the card, follow these steps:

1. Press the back cover and slide the cover off to remove it.

2. Remove the battery. The battery compartment has a notch at the top to make it easier to grasp and remove it.

Getting Started

3. Insert the SIM card into the holder with the correct orientation. The gold contacts of the SIM card should face down.

4. Place the battery back into the battery compartment noting the correct polarity.

5. Replace the battery cover. Place the back cover against the phone case, then slide it upwards to lock into place.

Caution:

• Use only the battery recommended by the manufacturer. Using an incompatible battery with the phone may cause risk of an explosion.

• Dispose of the used batteries as instructed by the manufacturer or ask your local authorities for assistance.

Charging the battery

Turning the phone on/off

1. Connect the charger plug to a power outlet.

2. Connect the charger to the socket at the bottom of the phone. The connector can only be inserted one way.

3. The phone will be turned on and charge the battery.

To turn the phone on, do the following:

1. Hold down the power/end

key until the

screen lights up.

2. If needed, enter your SIM card PIN code and press the Enter key.

To turn the phone off, do the following:

• Press the power/end

key and hold until

the phone shuts down.

Note: If you set an alarm using the Organizer menu and turn off the phone, the phone will turn itself on when the alarm is activated. After you disable the alarm, the phone prompts you if you want to keep the phone turned on or off. See the Organizer section for details about setting an alarm.

Note: If the battery has been deeply discharged, it may take

several minutes before the phone is turned on by the charger.

Select Smart Abc (the default is Abc; press “*” to switch between lower and upper case inputs) to let the phone predict the words you are typing, use the up and down joystick key to select the predicted words.

Multitap text entry

Multitap text entry enables you to enter individual letters one by one. This is ideal for

adding a phonebook entry or entering a WAP address.

When you press a key, the characters assigned to the key appear in the lower center of the screen. Press the key repeatedly to scroll through these characters.

You can choose the correct word by pressing the keys repetitively and scrolling through the words suggested by the phone. By reducing the number of keystrokes, the smart text entry method helps some users to type messages more quickly.

Whenever you press a key, a list of possible characters or character combinations is created. To enter text, use the up and down joystick keys to ﬁ nd the character combination you want. Press the right joystick key to proceed entering the next character. If you make a mistake, press Clear.

key again quickly to go to the next suggestion which is ba. If you press the up/down joystick keys, the phone scrolls through all possible twoletter combinations of the letters a, b, and c.

3.Press the

key again quickly to display three-letter combinations of the letters a, b, and c.

4.Press the up/down joystick keys to scroll through the possible words. When you see the bab combination, press the right joystick key to proceed to the next letter.

5.Press the

key and the letter x appears. Press the up/down joystick keys to scroll through letter options and select y.

6.Press Option > Done when ﬁ nished.

Note: For smart text entry to work properly, ensure the language settings in your phone match the language you want to type in. For setting language, see Phone Setup under Settings.

Numeric text entry

Numeric text entry allows you to create a text message composed of numbers. To use this method, select Option > Input Method and then select Numeric. Now you can directly input the numbers using the keypad.

Symbols text entry

With this method, you can enter various types of symbols. Select Option > Input Method > Insert Symbols. A list of symbols is displayed. Use the joystick keys to select the desired symbol and select OK when done. You can also press the “0” key as a shortcut to open the symbol table.
