Charging the Battery
Your Smartphone is powered by a rechargeable Lithium­Ion battery. The battery will eventually wear out after a few hundred charges or discharges. Replace the battery through an authorized vendor when the operating time is noticeably shorter than usual.
NOTE: The time it takes for a battery to fully charge depends on the environment temperature at the time of charge; a com­pleted charge normally takes about 3.5-4 hours under 0-10 degree temperatures, and below 3 hours for temperatures ranging from 20-45 degrees.
Mode Estimated battery life
Talk time 3.5 to 4 hours
GPRS Up to 2 hours
Standby 140 hours
Fully charge the new battery before using your Smartphone for the rst time. When the low-battery indicator appears, save any unsaved data you are working on by synchronizing your phone with your PC or a Microsoft Exchange Server. Do not restart your Smartphone until you have connected it to an external power source.
NOTE: Do not leave your Smartphone connected to a
charger for longer than a week because overcharging can shorten a battery’s lifespan. Your battery will automatically discharge when the device is not in use. Leaving the battery in extremely hot or cold places may also reduce its capacity or shorten its lifespan.

1.6 Entering Text and Numbers

Your Smartphone supports three input modes for entering text and numbers: Multipress, T9, and Numeric. The Multipress and T9 modes are used for entering text, and the Numeric mode is for entering numbers. When you select a eld that requires text or numeric entry, your Smartphone will automat­ically select the appropriate input mode. When the cursor is in a eld which requires text or number input, you can switch input modes by holding down the asterisk (*) key. Input and mode choices are Symbols, 123, Abc, and T9 English. One of the following status indicators will display in the Title Bar to show which input mode is currently active:
Multipress Mode
When you are in Multipress mode, you can enter a letter by pressing the number key on which the letter appears. To enter the rst letter on the number key, press the key once, to enter the second letter, press the key twice quickly, and so on. The letter entered most recently is underlined until you have completed the keypresses for the letter and moved on to the next letter.
For example: To enter the word "hat," press 44, 2, 8.

When you enter letters that are on the same number key, you must pause after entering the rst letter and wait until the underline disappears before entering the next letter so your Smartphone can process the rst letter. This pause is called the Multipress time-out, and you can adjust the length of the pause between keypresses.
For example: To enter the word "cat," press 222, pause, press 2, and then press 8. Press the # key to move a space.
To enter punctuation in Multipress mode, press 1 repeatedly until you see the punctuation mark that you want.
To change the Multipress time-out:
1. Select Settings from the Start menu.
2. Select Accessibility.
3. In the Multipress time-out eld, select the length of the pause between keypresses that you prefer.
4. Press the Left Softkey (“Done”) to save the settings and return to the Settings screen.

T9 Mode
When you are in the T9 mode, just press the number keys that contain the letters that you want to form a word. T9 will then analyze your keypresses and attempt to complete the word.
For example: To enter the word "shoe," press 7, 4, 6, 3.
To enter text in T9 mode:
1. Press and hold the * key until the input menu appears.
Scroll down and choose “English.” The T9 indicator should appear at the top of the display.
2. Enter letters by pressing the keys on which the letters
appear. Press a key only once for each letter.
3. Press the # key to accept the word and enter a space
after it, or press the Down button on the Navigation Pad to scroll through the other word options; press the Action button to accept the word choice.
4. Press 1 and then press the Up or Down button on the Navigation Pad to cycle through common punctuation symbols.
NOTE: T9 cannot always nd the word you want in the T9
dictionary. In these cases, switch to Multipress mode. After you have entered the word in Multipress mode, the word will be added to the T9 dictionary.
Numeric Mode
When you are in the Numeric mode, just press the number(s) you want to enter on the keypad. If a eld permits a nu­merical entry only, such as the Work phone number eld in Contacts, the input mode will automatically default to Numeric mode.

the Quick List. Select Device lock, then press the Left Softkey (“Select”).
2. In the Lock phone after eld, select the amount of
time you want your Smartphone to be inactive before it automatically locks.
3. In the Password eld, enter the password you want
to use, to access your phone when it is locked.
4. In the Conrm password eld, enter the password

To unlock your Smartphone: Press the Unlock softkey,
enter your password, and then press the Unlock softkey again.
To turn off phone lock: Select Start > Settings > Security > Disable Phone Lock, enter your password, and then press the Done softkey.
NOTE: If you forget your password, there is a way to regain access to your Smartphone, but you will lose all programs you installed. First, turn off your phone. Then press and hold down the Left Softkey (“Softkey 1”), the Right Softkey (“Softkey 2”), and the Power button, all at the same time. Continue to hold them down until a message appears and asks you if want to clear the memory.
