Before you can start exploring your new phone, you’ll need to set it up. To insert the SIM card and battery:

1 Hold the phone on your hand ﬁ rmly. With the other hand, lift the back

cover using the ﬁ ngertip cutout located on the left side of the cover and remove it.

2 Slide the SIM card into the SIM card slot. Make sure the gold contact area

Getting to know your phone

3 Insert the battery into place by aligning the gold contacts on the phone

and the battery

4 Replace the back cover of the phone . Apply a steady downward

pressure until the back cover clicks into place

and press the battery down until it clicks into place .

Charging your phone

1 Connect the wall adapter and USB cable as shown below. The USB symbol

on the USB cable should face toward you.

2 Plug the USB cable (as shown below) into the phone's Charger/Accessory

Port. Make sure the USB symbol is facing upwards.

Always unplug the charger from the wall socket after the phone is fully charged to save unnecessary power consumption of the charger.

Getting to know your phone

NOTE:

• The battery must be fully charged initially to improve battery lifetime.

• Your phone has an internal antenna. Be careful not to scratch or damage this

rear area, as that will cause loss of performance. When the battery becomes fully discharged and you connect the phone to a charger, the LED lights for the keys at the bottom of the phone will blink. This is normal operation for a completely discharged battery to prevent overflowing current because the phone is designed to provide reasonable protection against damage to the battery. Once the battery has enough charge, the screen will turn on and display a battery image.

Inserting a microSD card

NOTE: This device supports up to a 2TB microSD card.

1 Remove the back cover.

2 Gently insert the microSD card into the slot. Make sure the gold contact

area is facing downwards.

NOTE: Please insert the notched side of the microSD card first. Refer to the image next to the microSD card slot. The microSD card slot is located at the top of the dual card slot.

NOTE: Some downloaded applications store data on the microSD card as well as on the phone. Due to this feature, if you skip the unmount procedure, it can cause an error because information between the microSD card and the phone is not accorded properly. In the worst case, the microSD card can be corrupted or damaged.

Removing the microSD card

To safely remove the microSD card from your phone, you must first unmount it.

1 From the Home screen, tap > > Settings > General tab > Storage >

Unmount SD card.

2 Remove the back cover and gently pull the microSD card from the slot.

Warning! Do not remove the microSD card without unmounting it first.

Otherwise, it may damage the microSD card as well as your phone, and the data stored on the microSD card may be corrupted.

Getting to know your phone

Formatting the microSD card

Your microSD card may already be formatted. If it isn’t, you must format it before you can use it.

NOTE: All files on the card are deleted when you format the microSD card.

1 From the Home screen, tap > > Settings > General tab > Storage >

Unmount SD card.

2 Tap Erase SD card twice. 3 If you set an unlock pattern, enter it and tap Erase everything. The card will

then be formatted and ready to use.

NOTE: If there is content on your microSD card, the folder structure may be different after formatting since all the files will have been deleted.

Touch screen tips

With the touch of your finger, you can access available applications, make menu selections, and access data saved to your phone. The following terms are used for describing the different available actions using the touchscreen: Tap - A single finger tap selects items, links, shortcuts and letters on the on-screen keyboard. Touch and hold - Touch and hold an item on the screen by touching it and not lifting your finger until an action occurs. For example, to open a contact's available options, touch and hold the contact in the Contacts list until the context menu opens. Drag - Touch and hold an item for a moment and then, without lifting your finger, move your finger on the screen until you reach the target position. You can drag items on the Home screen to reposition them. Swipe or slide - To swipe or slide, quickly move your finger across the surface of the screen, without pausing when you first touch it (so you don’t drag an item instead). For example, you can slide the screen up or down to scroll through a list, or browse through the different Home screens by swiping from left to right (and vice versa). Double-tap - Double-tap to zoom on a Web page or a map. For example, quickly double-tap a section of a Web page to adjust that section to fit the width of the screen. You can also double-tap to zoom in and out when using Maps. Pinch-to-Zoom - Use your index finger and thumb in a pinch or spread motion to zoom in or out when using the browser, Maps, Camera, or browsing pictures. Rotate the screen - From many applications and menus, the orientation of the screen adjusts to the device's physical orientation.

NOTE:

• To select an item, tap the center of the icon.

• Do not to press too hard; the touch screen is sensitive enough to pick up a

light, firm touch.

• Use the tip of your finger to tap the option you want. Be careful not to tap

any other keys or icons.

Proximity sensor

When receiving and making calls, this sensor automatically turns the backlight off and locks the touch keypad by sensing when the phone is near your ear. This extends battery life and prevents the touch keypad from activating unintentionally during calls.

NOTE: When turning the screen on while holding the phone in a horizontal position, make sure you do not cover the proximity sensor. Doing so will turn the screen off immediately after turning it on.

Lock your phone

When you are not using the phone, press the Power/Lock Key to lock your phone. This helps prevent accidental presses and saves battery power. Also, if you do not use the phone for a while, the Home screen, or other screen you are viewing, is automatically replaced with the lock screen after 30 seconds (depending on the screen timeout settings) of inactivity to conserve the battery and prevent pocket dialing. To wake up your phone, press the Power/Lock Key . The lock screen will appear. Swipe the screen in any direction to unlock. The last screen you were working on opens.

NOTE:

• The automatic screen timeout can be configured manually in Settings. To

change it, tap > > Settings > Display tab > Screen timeout.

• If there are any programs running when you lock the phone, they may still be

running in lock mode. It is recommended that you exit all programs before entering the lock mode to avoid unnecessary charges (e.g., phone call, web access and data communications).
