FCC RF Exposure Information
WARNING!
Read this information before operating the phone.
In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States, with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326, adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters.
Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies.
The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.
CAUTION!
Use only the supplied and approved antenna. Use of unauthorized antennas or modifications could impair call quality, damage the phone, void your warranty and/or result in violation of FCC regulations. Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with skin, a minor burn may result. Contact your local dealer for a replacement antenna.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 0.6 inches (1.5cm) between the user’s body and the back of the phone. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.6 inches(1.5cm) must be maintained between the user s body and the back of the phone. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components should not be used. Bodyworn accessories that cannot maintain 0.6 inches(1.5cm) separation distance between the user's body and the back of the phone, and have not been tested for typical body-worn operations may not comply with FCC RF exposure limits and should be avoided.
Vehicle Mounted External Antenna (optional, if available)
A minimum separation distance of 8 inches (20cm) must be maintained between the user/bystander and the vehicle mounted external antenna to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements. For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov

Turn the Device On and Off
To turn on the device, press the button. When you turn on the device for the first time, you are asked to complete a calibration process. For more information, see “Calibrate the device” on next page.
To turn off the device, press again.
Reset the Device
Occasionally you may need to reset your device. A normal (or soft) reset of your device clears all active program memory and shuts down all active programs. This can be useful when the device is running slower than normal, or a program is not performing properly. A soft reset is also necessary after the installation of some programs. If a soft reset is performed when programs are running, unsaved work will be lost.
24
You can also perform a hard reset (also known as a full reset). A hard reset should be performed only if a normal reset does not solve a system problem. After a hard reset, the device is restored to its default settings—the way it was when you first purchased it and turned it on. Any programs you installed, data you entered, and settings you customized on the device will be lost.
To perform a soft reset
• Find out Soft reset key which is small hole at the left side of your device shown enclosed by circles in the picture below. Use the stylus to press the reset key and hold it for a while. Your device may shut down. Press the POWER button, the device restarts and displays the Today screen. A soft reset of your device clears all active program memory and shuts down all active programs. This can be useful when your device is running slower than normal, or a program is not performing properly. A soft reset is also necessary after the installation of some programs. If a soft reset is performed when programs are running, unsaved work will be lost.

Picsel Viewer Pan and Zoom Mode
The document you wish to see is often larger than the space available on the screen. There are two ways to see more of it. To pan (or ‘scroll’) to a different part of the document, simply stroke your pen across the screen in the direction you would like the page to move.
To pan the page up, touch and hold your pen somewhere near the middle of the screen and draw a line towards the top, then take your pen off the screen. You can do this repeatedly so that you can view any size of document. Further, you can ‘throw’ the document across the screen, and it will continue moving after you have released the pen. This gives you time to start another stroke. This inertia can be used to save time while you pan around the document.
You can also zoom the size of the document, so that more or less of it is visible at a different size. The tap-and-stroke gesture for this is to tap your pen briefly near the middle of the screen then touch and hold it again in the same place (a “double-tap”). Now, stroke your pen up to zoom in, or down to zoom out. Release your pen when you reach the scale you like. Using this, you can view small print details on diagrams, or can get an overview of a whole page.

Activesync
ActiveSync synchronizes information on your device with information on your PC, such as Outlook content. ActiveSync can also synchronize over a cellular network with Microsoft Exchange Server, if your company or service provider is running Microsoft Exchange Server with Exchange ActiveSync. When you synchronize, ActiveSync compares the information on your device with the information on your PC and/or Exchange Server and updates all locations with the most recent information.
With ActiveSync, you can:
v
Synchronize information, such as Outlook E-mail, Contacts, Calendar, or Tasks information on your
device with your PC, as well as pictures, video, and music.
v
Synchronize Outlook E-mail, Contacts, Calendar appointments, and Tasks on your device directly with
Exchange Server so that you can stay up to date even when your PC is turned off.
v
Exchange files between your device and your PC without synchronizing.
v
Select which types of information are synchronized and specify how much information is
synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of past Calendar appointments to synchronize.
Before you can synchronize information with a PC, first, you must install ActiveSync on your PC. And then you create a synchronization relationship between your device and the PC. You can install ActiveSync from the Getting Started disc that comes.
Once you have installed ActiveSync and set up a synchronization relationship, ActiveSync on the PC recognizes your device when you connect it, and automatically transfers the synchronization settings you specified on your device.
You may be able to synchronize your device with Exchange Server through your company or wireless service provider. If you plan to do so, obtain e-mail address, Exchange Server address, user name, password, and domain name from your administrator before starting the Sync Setup Wizard.

Synchronizing Information
When you connect your device to the PC using a USB or a Bluetooth connection, ActiveSync will immediately synchronize. While the device is connected, ActiveSync synchronizes every time you make a change on either the PC or the device.
Synchronizing Outlook information
If you have set up a synchronization relationship between your device and the PC, synchronization keeps Outlook information up-to-date on both computers. ActiveSync synchronizes a limited amount of information by default to save storage space on your device. You can change the amount of information synchronized for a given information type in Settings for the information type.
You can set up your device to synchronize with more than one PC or with a combination of one or more PCs and Exchange Server. When synchronizing with multiple computers, the items that you synchronize will appear on all of the computers with which they are synchronized.
For example, if you have set up synchronization with two PCs (PC1 and PC2), which have different items, and you synchronize Contacts and Calendar on the device with both computers, the result is as follows:
Location New state
PC1
All Outlook contacts and calendar appointments that were on PC2 are now also on PC1.
PC2
All Outlook contacts and calendar appointments that were on PC1 are now also on PC2.
Device
All Outlook contacts and calendar appointments from both PC1 and PC2 are on the device.
