Turning Your Device On and Off
To turn on your device, press and hold the Power Key at the right side of the device. When you turn on your device for the first time, a Quick Start Wizard will guide you through the calibration process and the setup of regional settings, date and time, and password. For more information about touch screen calibration, see “Calibrating the Device.” For information about setting up the device password, see “Protecting Your Device” in Section 4.
To turn off your device, press and hold the Power Key for a few seconds. A message will then be displayed, prompting you whether to turn off the device completely.
Switching to Sleep Mode
Quickly pressing the Power Key turns off the display temporarily and switches your device to sleep mode. Sleep mode suspends your device to a low power state while the display is off in order to save battery power.
Your device also automatically goes into sleep mode when you leave the device idle after a certain amount of time.
To specify the timeout period before your device goes into sleep mode:
1. Tap Start > Settings > System tab > Power > Advanced tab.
2. Under On battery power, make sure the Turn off device if not used for check box is selected.

Calibrating the Device
Calibrating the device screen involves tapping the center of a cross with the stylus as it moves around the screen. This process ensures that when you tap the screen with your stylus, the tapped item is activated.
If your device does not accurately respond to screen taps, please follow these steps to recalibrate it:
1. Tap Start > Settings > System tab > Screen.
2. On the General tab, tap Align Screen, and follow the instructions on the screen.

Tips on Using Smart Dialing
Smart Dialing starts looking for numbers or contacts that match the sequence you have entered. Below are some tips on how to use Smart Dialing to quickly find a desired phone number or contact.
To find a phone number:
Simply enter the first one or two digits to find a phone number in Call History.
Enter the first three digits or more if you want to find a phone number from the saved contacts on
your device.
To find a contact name:
You can just enter the first letter of a contact’s first name or surname. Smart Dialing will search for the letter starting from the first character of a contact name as well as from the character that appears after a space, dash, or underscore in a contact name. For example, if you tap number “2” which is associated with [a, b, c] on the Phone keypad, contact names such as the following will be considered matches: “Ben Miller,” “George Adams,” “John-Carter,” “Carter, Ellen,” “Dixon, Allan,” “Thomas_Clark,” “JaneCampbell.”
If the matching list is long and you want to narrow down the search further, enter another letter. Using the same example above, if you continue to tap “3” which is associated with [d, e, f], the matching list will be narrowed down to the following names: “Ben Miller,” “George Adams,” “Carter, Ellen,” “Dixon, Allan.”

To change Exchange Server settings, open ActiveSync on your device, then tap Menu > Configure Server.
96 Section 8: Working With Company Email and Meeting Appointments
Starting Synchronization
Before you start synchronizing with the Exchange Server, make sure your device has been set up with a data connection to the Internet so that you can synchronize wirelessly. For more information about connections, see Section 11.
After you finish setting up an Exchange Server connection, your device automatically starts synchronization.
You can manually start synchronization anytime by tapping Sync in ActiveSync.

Your device gives you instant access to your company email and lets you manage your messages more easily. Direct Push, Fetch Mail, Remote email search, and email flags are just some of the tools you can use to manage your email.

Working With Company Email

Note:
Some messaging features depend on the Microsoft Exchange Server version used in your company. Please check with your network administrator for the availability of these features.
Automatic Synchronization Through Direct Push
Direct Push technology (push email feature) enables you to receive new email on your device as soon as it
arrives in your Inbox on the Exchange Server. With this feature, items such as contacts, calendar appointments, and tasks are also immediately updated onto your device when these items have been changed or new entries have been added on the Exchange Server. To make Direct Push work, you need to have a data connection on your device.
You need to perform a full synchronization between your device and the Exchange Server first before Direct Push can be enabled.
Note:
To enable Direct Push via Comm Manager:
1. On the Today screen, tap the Comm Manager icon ( ).
2. On the Comm Manager screen, tap the Direct Push button
The button will turn to ; this indicates that you will receive email messages as they arrive.
The Direct Push feature works for your device only if your company is using Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2) with Exchange ActiveSync or higher version.
.
When the button is in the
state, you need to manually retrieve your email messages.
To enable Direct Push via ActiveSync:
1. In ActiveSync on your device, tap Menu > Schedule.
2. Select As items arrive in the Peak times and Off-peak times boxes.
Note:
When the dial-up and Wi-Fi connections are turned on at the same time, the Direct Push feature will always go through the dial-up connection, for which you will be charged for airtime minutes.
98 Section 8: Working With Company Email and Meeting Appointments
Scheduled Synchronization
If you do not want to use Direct Push, you can set a regular schedule for synchronizing Outlook email and information. Set how often to synchronize during peak times (which usually refer to your working hours) when email volume is high, as well as off-peak times when email volume is low.
1. In ActiveSync on your device, tap Menu > Schedule.
2. Select a shorter time interval in the Peak times box to check for email messages more often during peak
times.
3. Select a longer interval in the Off-peak times box to check for email messages less often during off-peak times.
Tip:
To set the days and hours that make up your peak and off-peak times, tap Adjust peak times to fit your schedule.
Instant Download Through Fetch Mail
The Fetch Mail feature downloads an entire email message immediately without the need for you to perform a full Send/Receive action. This limits the download to just the email message that you want and helps save data cost.
Note:
1. Tap Start > Programs > Messaging > Outlook E-mail.
2. Tap an email message to open it.
3. By default, only the first few kilobytes of the message are shown. To download the whole message, scroll to the bottom of the message, and then tap Get the rest of this message.

Flagging Your Messages
Flags serve as reminders to yourself to follow up on important issues or requests that are indicated in the messages. Flagging messages, which has been a useful feature on desktop Outlook Email, can also be done in Outlook Mobile on your device. You can flag received messages on your device.

Flags are enabled only if email messages are synchronized with Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or higher. Flags are disabled or hidden if email messages are synchronized with earlier versions of Microsoft Exchange Server.
To flag or unflag a message:

2. Select a message, or open a message.

Set Flag. Mark the message with a red flag to indicate that it
needs follow-up action.
Complete Flag. Mark the message with a check mark to
indicate that the issue or request in the email is already completed.
Clear Flag. Remove the flag to unmark the message.
Note:
Email message reminders are displayed on your device if the messages are flagged with reminders and synchronized from the Exchange Server.
