SAFETY IN AIRCRAFT

Due to the possible interference caused by this product to an aircraft’s navigation system and its communications network, using this device’s phone function on board an aeroplane is against the law in most countries. If you want to use this device when on board an aircraft, remember to turn off the phone by switching to Flight Mode.

ENVIRONMENT RESTRICTIONS

Do not use this product in gas stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress, or in potentially explosive atmospheres such as fuelling areas, fuel storehouses, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Please be aware that sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES

When in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere or where flammable materials exist, the product should be turned off and the user should obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Users are advised not to use the equipment at refuelling points such as service or gas stations, and are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. These include fueling areas, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.

ROAD SAFETY

Vehicle drivers in motion are not permitted to use telephony services with handheld devices, except in the case of emergency. In some countries, using hands-free devices as an alternative is allowed.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE

• Avoid using your device near metal structures (for example, the steel

frame of a building).

• Avoid using your device near strong electromagnetic sources, such as

microwave ovens, sound speakers, TV and radio.

• Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories

that do not contain any metal.

• Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate

your local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.

INTERFERENCE WITH MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FUNCTIONS

This product may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use of this device is forbidden in most hospitals and medical clinics.

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Turn the phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

HEARING AIDS

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider, or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.

NONIONIZING RADIATION

Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be operated in its normal-use position to ensure the radiative performance and safety of the interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.

Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the phone, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well as result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your country.

To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF energy is within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards, always use your device only in its normal-use position. Do not touch or hold the antenna area unnecessarily when placing or receiving a phone call. Contact with the antenna area may impair call quality and cause your device to operate at a higher power level than needed. Avoiding contact with the antenna area when the phone is IN USE optimises the antenna performance and the battery life.

Calibrate the device

Calibrating the touch screen involves tapping the centre of a cross with the stylus as the cross 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, follow these steps to re-calibrate it:

1. Tap Start > Settings > System tab > Screen.

2. On the General tab, tap Align Screen and follow the on-screen

instructions to complete the calibration.

Manage screen settings

The device’s display has the following orientation modes: Portrait and Landscape. Portrait mode allows you to get a better view or a better

operation of certain programs, while Landscape mode may be optimal for viewing lengthy files.

• To change the orientation, tap Start > Settings > System tab >

Screen, and select the orientation you want.

• To smooth the edges of screen fonts for many programs, on the

ClearType tab, select the Enable ClearType check box.

• To increase the readability or to see more content on the screen, on

the Text Size tab, adjust the text size by moving the slider.

Switch your device to Sleep mode

Press and immediately release the POWER button to turn off the display temporarily and switch 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 period 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.

3. Select the battery timeout period, then tap OK.

You will still be able to receive messages and calls while your device is in Sleep mode. Pressing the POWER button again or incoming calls/messages will wake up your device.

Check battery power

• Tap Start > Settings > System tab >

Power

When the low-battery warning appears, immediately save your data by synchronising with your PC, or save your data on a storage card, and then turn off your device. Do not attempt to restart your device until you have connected it with the power adapter.
