1.3 Setting up your Smartphone

In this section you will learn how to install a battery, SIM card, Mini SD card, and how to charge the battery.

Installing the SIM Card

The SIM (Subscriber Identication Module) card contains a computer chip that stores your personal number, phone book, and other services provided by your cellular service provider.

Started

1. Getting

To insert a SIM card:

1. Press on the battery release latch and move the backside cover downward to open.

2. Remove the battery by lifting it up from the bottom end.

3. Pry the SIM metal socket open.

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: Please note that 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.

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 the cursor is in a eld which requires text or number input, you can switch input modes yourself by holding down the asterisk (*) key to pop up the menu. Commands on the menu 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:

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.

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.

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.

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.
