About this guide
In this user guide, we use the following symbols to indicate useful and important
information:
This is a note. A note often gives additional information, such as what happens
when you choose to do or not to do a certain action. A note also provides
information that may only be applicable to some situations.
This is a tip. A tip gives you an alternative way to do a particular step or procedure,
or lets you know of an option that you may find helpful.
This indicates important information that you need in order to accomplish a certain
task or to get a feature to work properly.
This provides safety precaution information, that is, information that you need to be
careful about to prevent potential problems.
Some apps may not be available in all regions or with your mobile operator.
