2.1. Connectors and physical buttons: Sleep/Wake, Volume, Home, Assistance
Your phone has got different physical buttons depending on the device:
- The Sleep/Wake button, which allows you to switch on and off your phone, located on the side
of the phone;
- The volume button, slightly longer, to increase or decrease the sound on your device;
- Three buttons at the bottom of the phone under the screen. You can find the Home button
between the Menu and Return buttons. On Doro Claria devices, these buttons are real physical ones.
- On Doro Claria devices, an Assistance button is located at the back of your device, just under
the camera.
Your phone also provides a micro-USB socket to allow charging or to link the phone to a computer; as well as a jack socket to plug earphones in.
2.2. Insert the SIM card
To access the complete description of the SIM card location on your phone, please refer to the paper
guidelines in the phone’s box. If you do not feel comfortable inserting the SIM card by yourself, sighted
assistance might be required. This operation is indeed difficult for someone being severely sight impaired, as it is easy to damage the socket.

3. Your phone
3.1. Getting started
3.1.1. Position your phone and locate the Home button.
If your elastomer keypad overlay is already on the phone: the Home button will be easy to find.
The home button is located in the middle at the bottom of the device, below the screen and between the physical Menu and Return buttons. It is also marked with two physical dots that you can easily feel when passing your finger on it. The Home button is essential as it allows you to go back to the Home screen at any moment.
Get this habit from the start: if you want to quit an application, launch a new one or if you get lost while using the phone, press the Home button to start back from a familiar point!
Note that the physical Menu and Return buttons have the same actions than the tactile Menu and Back keys that are described in the paragraph below.
3.1.2. Start, switch off, “Sleep-Wake” button
The Sleep-Wake button allows you to switch the phone on and off, and also to activate/deactivate the sleep mode.
Press the Sleep-Wake button for a few seconds to switch on your phone. The starting process should take around 30 seconds.
To switch off your phone, press the Sleep-Wake button for approximately 1 second and select “1- Power off” in the General options menu (through which you can access a series of other options).
To activate the sleep mode, press the Sleep-Wake button. The phone will make a sound then, to let you know the mode has been activated. If you deactivate the sleep mode, the phone will read the first component on the screen. If your Home button is a physical one, you can also get out of the Sleep mode by pressing it.
3.1.3. Volume button
