Important Health Information and Safety Precautions

When using this product, the safety precautions below must be taken to avoid possible legal liabilities and damages. Retain and
follow all product safety and operating instructions. Observe all warnings in the operating instructions on the product. To reduce the
risk of bodily injury, electric shock, fire, and damage to the equipment, observe the following precautions.

Electrical Safety

This product is intended for use when supplied with power from the designated battery or power supply unit. Other usage may be
dangerous and will invalidate any approval given to this product.

Safety Precautions for Proper Grounding Installation

CAUTION: Connecting to an improperly grounded equipment can result in an electric shock to your smartphone.

This product is equipped with a USB Cable for connecting with desktop or Notebook computer. Be sure your computer is properly
earthed (grounded) before connecting this product to the computer. The power supply cord of a desktop or notebook computer
has an equipment-earthing conductor and an earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet which is properly
installed and earthed in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR POWER SUPPLY UNIT

Use the correct external power source

A product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the electrical ratings label. If you are not sure of the
type of power source required, consult your authorised service provider or local power company. For a product that operates from
battery power or other sources, refer to the operating instructions that are included with the product.

Handle battery packs carefully

This product contains a Li-ion battery. There is a risk of fire and burns if the battery pack is handled improperly. Do not attempt to
open or service the battery pack. Do not dismantle, crush, puncture, short external contacts or circuits, dispose of in fire or water, or
expose a battery pack to temperatures higher than 60˚C (140˚F).
WARNING: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. To reduce risk of fire or burns, do not dismantle, crush, puncture,
short external contacts, expose to temperature above 60°C (140°F), or dispose of in fire or water. Replace only with specified
batteries. Recycle or dispose of used batteries according to the local regulations or reference guide supplied with your product.

Take extra precautions

• Keep the battery or phone dry and away from water or any liquid as it may cause a short circuit.

• Keep metal objects away so they don’t come in contact with the battery or its connectors as it may lead to short circuit during
operation.

• The phone should be only connected to products that bear the USB-IF logo or have completed the USB-IF compliance program.

• Do not use a battery that appears damaged, deformed, or discoloured, or one that has any rust on its casing, overheats, or emits a
foul odour.

• Always keep the battery out of the reach of babies and small children, to avoid swallowing of the battery. Consult the doctor
immediately if the battery is swallowed.

• If the battery leaks:

• Do not allow the leaking fluid to come in contact with skin or clothing. If already in contact, flush the affected area immediately
with clean water and seek medical advice.

• Do not allow the leaking fluid to come in contact with eyes. If already in contact, DO NOT rub; rinse with clean water immediately
and seek medical advice.

• Take extra precautions to keep a leaking battery away from fire as there is a danger of ignition or explosion.

Safety Precautions For Direct Sunlight

Keep this product away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures. Do not leave the product or its battery inside a vehicle or
in places where the temperature may exceed 60°C (140°F), such as on a car dashboard, window sill, or behind a glass that is exposed
to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for extended period of time. This may damage the product, overheat the battery, or pose a
risk to the vehicle.

Prevention of hearing loss

CAUTION: Permanent hearing loss may occur if earphones or headphones are used at high volume for prolonged periods of time.

Safety in Aircraft

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

Environment Restrictions

Do not use this product in petrol 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, chemical plants, 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 fuelling 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 mobile phones, except in the case of emergency. In some countries, using
handsfree phones as an alternative is allowed.

Safety Precautions for RF Exposure

• Avoid using your phone near metal structures (for example, the steel frame of a building).

• Avoid using your phone 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 phone is forbidden in most hospitals and medical clinics. If
you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your phone to determine if they are adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Your doctor may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Turn your 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.

Nonionising Radiation

Your phone 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 unauthorised 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 smartphone only in its normal-use position. Contact with the antenna area may impair call quality
and cause your smartphone to operate at a higher power level than needed. Avoiding contact with the antenna area when the
smartphone is IN USE optimises the antenna performance and the battery life.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

Avoid applying excessive pressure to the smartphone

Do not apply excessive pressure on the screen and the smartphone to prevent damaging them and remove the phone from your
trouser pocket before sitting down. It is also recommended that you store the phone in a protective case and only use the stylus
or your finger when interacting with the touch screen. Cracked display screens due to improper handling are not covered by
the warranty.

Warming of the phone after prolonged use

When using your phone for prolonged periods of time, such as when you’re on a long call, charging the battery or browsing the web,
it may become warm. In most cases, this condition is normal and therefore should not be interpreted as a problem with the phone.

Heed service markings

Except as explained elsewhere in the Operating or Service documentation, do not service any product yourself. Service needed on
components inside the phone should be done by an authorised service technician or provider.

Damage requiring service

Unplug the product from the electrical outlet and refer servicing to an authorised service technician or provider under the following
conditions:

• Liquid has been spilled or an object has fallen onto the product.

• The product has been exposed to rain or water.

• The product has been dropped or damaged.

• There are noticeable signs of overheating.

• The product does not operate normally when you follow the operating instructions.

Avoid hot areas

The product should be placed away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.

DO NOT use the phone in an extreme environment with high temperatures or humidity levels

Try to keep your phone in temperatures of between -20ºC (-4ºF) and +40ºC(104ºF).

Avoid wet areas

Never use the product in a wet location. DO NOT try to dry your phone in a microwave oven. If you do, sparks can occur and cause
an explosion or fire.

Avoid using your phone after a dramatic change in temperature

When you move your phone between environments with very different temperature and/or humidity ranges, condensation may form
on or within the phone. To avoid damaging the phone, allow sufficient time for the moisture to evaporate before using it again.
NOTICE: When taking the phone from low-temperature conditions into a warmer environment or from high-temperature conditions
into a cooler environment, allow it to acclimatise to room temperature before turning on power.

Avoid pushing objects into product

Never push objects of any kind into cabinet slots or other openings in the product. Slots and openings are provided for ventilation.
These openings must not be blocked or covered.

DO NOT abuse the phone.

Avoid striking, shaking or knocking it. When not using it, lay it down to avoid possible damage due to instability.

DO NOT dismantle the phone or its accessories.

If a service or repair is required, return the phone to an authorised service centre. If the phone is dismantled, there may be a risk of
electric shock or fire.

DO NOT short-circuit the battery terminals with metal items, etc.

Mounting accessories

Do not use the product on an unstable table, cart, stand, tripod, or bracket. Any mounting of the product should follow the
manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.

Avoid unstable mounting

Do not place the product with an unstable base.

Use product with approved equipment

This product should be used only with personal computers and options identified as suitable for use with your equipment.

Adjust the volume

Turn down the volume before using headphones or other audio devices.

• Don’t attempt to take the battery apart – it is a sealed unit with no serviceable parts.

• Don’t accidentally short circuit the battery by carrying it in your pocket or purse with other metallic objects,

such as coins, clips and pens. This may critically damage the battery.

E-mail

The Xda Venn allows you to send e-mails with several options. You can copy, blind copy, set priority, and store

e-mails just as you would from a computer. The Xda Venn uses Outlook as the default mail program.

You can send and receive e-mail messages in one of these ways:

• Synchronise e-mail messages with Microsoft® Exchange or Microsoft® Outlook on your PC.

• Send and receive e-mail messages by connecting directly to an e-mail server through an Internet Service

Provider (ISP) or a network.

Synchronising e-mail messages

Use the Outlook E-mail account to send and receive e-mail messages by synchronising e-mail messages with

Microsoft® Exchange or Microsoft® Outlook on your PC. E-mail messages can be synchronised as part of the

general synchronisation process. You will need to enable Inbox synchronisation in ActiveSync.

During synchronisation:

• Messages are copied from the mail folders of Exchange or Outlook on your PC to the Outlook E-mail

folders on your phone.

• E-mail messages in Outlook E-mail on your phone are transferred to Exchange or Outlook, and then sent

from those programs.

Connecting directly to an E-mail Server

You can send and receive e-mail messages by connecting to an e-mail server. You’ll need to set up a remote

connection to a network or an ISP, and a connection to your e-mail server. When you connect to the e-mail

server, new messages are downloaded to the phone’s Inbox folder. Also, messages in the phone’s Outbox

folder are sent, and messages that have been deleted on the e-mail server are removed from the phone’s

message folders.

Folder Behaviour during a direct connection to an E-mail Server

The behaviour of the folders you create depends on whether you are using POP3 or IMAP4.

• If you use POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link is broken between the

messages on the phone and their copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server

will see that the messages are missing from the phone and delete them. This prevents you from having

duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you will no longer have access to messages that you

move to folders created from anywhere except the phone.

• If you use IMAP4, the folders you created and the e-mail messages you moved are mirrored on the server.

Therefore, messages are available to you any time you connect to your mail server. This synchronisation

of folders occurs whenever you connect to your mail server, create new folders or rename/delete folders

when connected.

57

Creating an E-mail Account

You need to create a new account to be used for retrieving and sending e-mail messages.

multiple addresses.

5. Enter a subject.

6. Enter a message.

7. Press Send. E-mail messages are stored in Outbox and are sent to recipients the next time you synchronise

or connect to your e-mail server and send and receive mail.

TIP: You can quickly enter e-mail addresses from your contact cards. In To, press ENTER and select a recipient

from the list. Then, select the recipient’s e-mail address.

Overview of e-mail security

You can help prevent impersonation, tampering, and eavesdropping when sending e-mail messages from

your Outlook e-mail account by using Secure Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (S/MIME) digital

signatures and encryption.

A signature helps prevent impersonation and tampering. Impersonation occurs when a hacker sends e-mail

messages while pretending to be someone else. Tampering occurs when a hacker intercepts your e-mail

messages and changes the message without the recipient’s knowledge.

Signing a message applies the sender’s certificate (and public key) to the message. This proves to the recipient

that the message is from the sender and not from an impostor.

Encryption helps prevent eavesdropping, which occurs when a hacker intercepts and reads your e-mail

messages. Using a cryptographic message format such as S/MIME for encryption helps improve e-mail privacy

because it converts plain, readable text of the message into cipher (scrambled) text. The sender’s messaging

program uses the recipient’s public key to encrypt (lock) the e-mail message and attachments. Only the

recipient who has the private key that matches the public key you used to encrypt the message can decipher

(unscramble) the message.

A certificate is a digital means of proving your identity. When you send a digitally signed message, you are

sending your certificate and public key. Certificates can expire or be revoked.

NOTE: S/MIME encryption and digital signatures for Windows® Mobile-based devices are available only with

Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2 or a later version that supports S/MIME. If you aren’t using one of these

products, or have not yet synchronised, these options are unavailable.

Downloading an e-mail message

You can save e-mail messages and retrieve them at any time when you synchronise or connect to your

mail server.

1. On the home screen, press Start > All Programs > Messaging > [OK].

2. Select an e-mail account and the message to download.

3. Press Menu > Download Message. The complete message is retrieved the next time you synchronise

or connect to your e-mail server and send and receive e-mail.

Downloading an attachment

In an open message with an attachment to download, press the attachment. The attachment is downloaded

the next time you synchronise or connect to your e-mail server and send and receive e-mail.

NOTE: If there are multiple attachments in the message, all attachments are downloaded.

59

Selecting a folder for synchronisation

When you synchronise your Outlook e-mail account with your PC, the same Inbox folders that are in Outlook

on your PC are created on your phone.

1. On the home screen, press Start > All Programs > Messaging > [OK].

2. Select Outlook e-Mail.

3. Press Menu > Folders.

4. Press Menu > Show All Folders.

5. Press Menu > Manage Folders.

6. Select a folder to synchronise and press Show Sync Folder.

7. Press Done. The next time you synchronise, the folder(s) that you selected on your phone are synchronised

with the corresponding folders in Outlook on your PC.

Adding a picture to an e-mail message

You can retrieve pictures that have been downloaded to your phone and insert them into your

e-mail messages.

1. In the message area of an e-mail message, press Menu > Insert > Picture.

2. Select the picture you want to add.

Verifying the digital signature on a message you receive

For additional security, you can check digital signatures on messages before opening them. In some cases,

the signatures may not be available.

1. Open the message that has been digitally signed.

2. At the top of the message, press View Signature Status.

3. Press Menu > Check Certificate.

NOTE: There can be several reasons why a digital signature is not valid. For example, the sender’s certificate

may have expired, it may have been revoked by the certificate authority, or the server that verifies the

certificate is unavailable. Contact the sender to report the problem.

S/MIME encryption and digital signatures for Windows® Mobile-based devices are available only with Exchange

Server 2003 Service Pack 2 or a later version that supports S/MIME. If you aren’t using one of these products,

or have not yet synchronised, these options are unavailable.

over the Internet.

When you send a message from an account you have with an Internet service provider (ISP) or from an

account you access using a VPN server connection (typically a work account), Messaging always tries to use an

SSL connection. However, sometimes the e-mail server at the other end doesn’t support SSL, so the message is

sent without an SSL connection.

To ensure that your e-mail is always sent using an SSL connection, or not at all, select ‘Require SSL connection’

when you set up your e-mail account.

ActiveSync®

Microsoft® ActiveSync® synchronises data between your phone and PC. ActiveSync® is already installed on your

smartphone, but you need to install it on your PC before you can synchronise data.

Installing and setting up ActiveSync

Install ActiveSync® on your PC, as described on the Windows® Mobile Getting Started Disc. After Setup has

completed, the Sync Setup Wizard automatically starts when you connect your phone to the PC.

Simply follow the instructions on the screen. In the Sync Setup Wizard, you can:

• Synchronise your PC with your phone and vice versa.

• Configure an Exchange Server connection to synchronise directly with an Exchange Server. To synchronise

your phone with an Exchange Server, obtain the name of the Exchange Server, your user name, password,

and domain name from your administrator before finishing the wizard.

• Choose the types of information you wish to synchronise.

NOTE: When you finish the wizard, ActiveSync® synchronises your phone automatically. Once this is completed,

you can disconnect your phone from your PC.

See also Connect the phone, Change ActiveSync® settings.

Setting up an Exchange Server connection

To be able to complete this configuration, you will need to get the name of the server and the server domain

name from your service provider or system administrator. You also need to know your Exchange user name

and password.

Before changing synchronisation settings on the phone, disconnect it from your PC.

1. From your phone’s home screen, press Start > All Programs > ActiveSync > OK.

2. Press Menu > Configure Server > OK. If you have not yet set up sync with Exchange Server, this will say

Add Server Source.

3. In Server address, enter the name of the server running Exchange Server, and press Next.

4. Enter your user name, password, and domain name, and press Next.

5. If you want the phone to save your password so you don’t need to enter it again when connecting, select

the Save password check box and press [OK].

6. Select the check boxes for the types of information that you want to synchronise with Exchange Server.

7. To change available synchronisation settings, select the type of information, and press Menu >

Settings > OK.

8. To change the rules for resolving synchronisation conflicts, press Menu > Advanced > OK.

9. Press Finish.

Changing ActiveSync® settings

Once you’ve set up synchronisation using the Sync Setup wizard on your PC, you can change your

synchronisation settings:

• To change the settings for synchronising with your PC, use ActiveSync® on the PC. For more information,

see Changing the amount of information synchronised in ActiveSync® Help on the PC.

• If you want to change the settings for synchronising with the Exchange Server, use ActiveSync® on your

phone, as described in Change settings for an information type.

See also Install and set up ActiveSync®, Connect the phone, Change settings for an information type.

Scheduling synchronisation as items arrive

You can schedule automatic synchronisation between your phone and Exchange Server every time an item

arrives or is changed in Exchange Server, provided your company is running Exchange Server with Exchange

ActiveSync®, and after your first full synchronisation with Exchange Server.

1. On the phone home screen, press Start > All Programs > ActiveSync > OK.

2. Press the Menu > Schedule > [OK]. Choose one or both of the following:

• Peak times: select ‘As items arrive’. This is more cost-efficient to synchronise at regular intervals when

mail volume is high.

• Off-peak times: select ‘As items arrive’. This can be more cost-efficient than synchronising on a regular

schedule when mail volume is low.

3. Press Done.

NOTE: Before changing the phone settings for synchronisation, disconnect the phone from your PC.

Changing the synchronisation schedule

Before changing synchronisation settings, disconnect the phone from your PC.

1. On the phone home screen, press Start > All Programs > ActiveSync > [OK].

2. Press Menu > Schedule > [OK]. Do one or more of the following:

To sync Do this

When you are working, or e-mail volume is high Select an appropriately frequent interval in the Peak

times list.

When e-mail volume is low Select a longer interval or As items arrive in the Off-

peak times list.

While roaming Select the Use above settings while roaming check

box. To minimise roaming charges, clear the check

box, and synchronise manually while roaming.

When you Press Send in Messaging on the phone Select the Send outgoing items immediately

check box.

99

NOTE: The phone’s power-down timer is reset each time you synchronise. If you schedule a synchronisation

interval that is shorter than the time interval set for the phone to automatically power down, the phone will

never turn off to save battery power.

TIP: To change peak time settings to more accurately reflect periods of e-mail volume for you, press Menu

> Peak Times.

Starting and stopping synchronisation

The ActiveSync® program allows you to access a PC to keep information on both the PC and the phone

current. There are several types of information you will want to keep updated on both.

1. On the phone home screen, press Start > All Programs > ActiveSync > [OK].

2. Press the Sync > [OK].

3. To stop synchronising, press Stop.

NOTE: You can start and stop synchronisation only if your phone already has a sync relationship with a PC

or Exchange Server.

Viewing information about Sync status

ActiveSync® keeps synchronisation status messages on a status page for you to view at any time.

You can view status in one of the following ways:

• When alert text is displayed on the ActiveSync® main page, press the alert text to open the status page.

• Press Menu > Status > [OK].

NOTE: Some errors interfere with automatic synchronisation. If you suspect that a scheduled synchronisation

has not occurred, you should attempt to manually synchronise your information. Successfully completing

manual synchronisation resets automatic synchronisation. For more information, see Synchronising Information

in ActiveSync® Help on the PC.

Changing settings for an information type

Before changing synchronisation settings on the phone, disconnect it from your PC.

1. On the home screen, press Start > All Programs > ActiveSync > [OK].

2. Press Menu > Options > [OK].

3. Select one of the information types. Do one of the following:

• To view or change settings for an information type (when available), press Settings.

• To view or change settings for a computer or Exchange Server, press Menu > Settings > [OK].
