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 authorised vendor when the operating time is noticeably shorter than usual.

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 hours in 0-10 degree temperatures, and less than 3 hours in temperatures ranging from 20 to 45 degrees.

Fully charge the new battery before using your Smartphone for the ﬁrst time. When the low-battery indicator appears, save any unsaved data you are working on by synchronizing your Smartphone with your PC or an 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 phone is not in use. Leaving the battery in extremely hot or cold places may also reduce its capacity or shorten its lifespan.

1.5 Navigating

This section discusses how to navigate through your Smartphone’s screens in order to perform tasks efﬁciently.

Navigation Pad

The Navigation Pad provides an easy way to move or scroll through selections on the screen.

• Press the left side of the Navigation Pad to move left.

• Press the top of the Navigation Pad to move up.

• Press the bottom of the Navigation Pad to move down.

Action button

When you scroll to a checkbox, pressing the Action button activates or clears the box.

Softkeys

There are two softkeys on your Smartphone, located directly below the display screen: the Left Softkey (“Softkey 1”) and the Right Softkey (“Softkey 2”). Each softkey performs the command displayed immediately above it on the screen (called the “Softkey label”).

Smartphone User Manual

Started

Menus

On many screens, the function of the Right Softkey is to open a menu which displays a list of options that are relevant to the current screen/application. Selecting a menu option will either perform that command or take you to another part of the user interface where you can perform the command. The example menu shown below comes from the File Manager application.

The Home button

Pressing the Home button takes you to the Home screen, which is your starting place for most tasks. All programs and features can be accessed from the Home screen.

By default, there are six program icons displayed at the left of

Home screen: Contacts, Call History, Messaging,

data is displayed in the

Home screen, such as date/time,

and current proﬁle.

If you use Settings > Home Screen to change to a different Home screen layout value, the Home screen will change the layout according to your setting (explained in section 4.2).

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 you select a ﬁeld that requires text or numeric entry, your Smartphone will automatically select the appropriate input mode.

When the cursor is in a ﬁeld 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, T9 English, and T9 Languages. Selecting T9 Languages will open a submenu of all the languages available on your Smartphone with T9 capability.

One of the following status indicators will display in the Title Bar to show which input mode is currently active:

Indicator Mode

abc Abc ABC t

T9 123

Multipress text input mode, lowercase Multipress text input mode, uppercase Multipress text input mode, caps lock T9 text input mode, lowercase T9 text input mode, uppercase T9 text input mode, caps lock Numeric input mode

Smartphone User Manual

1. Getting

Started

Multipress mode

When you are in Multipress mode, you can enter a letter by pressing the number key on which the letter appears. To enter the ﬁrst letter on the number key, press the key once, to enter the second letter, press the key twice quickly, and so on. The letter entered most recently is underlined until you have completed the keypresses for the letter and moved on to the next letter.

For example: To enter the word "hat," press

44, 2, 8.

When you enter letters that are on the same number key, you must pause after entering the ﬁrst letter and wait until the underline disappears before entering the next letter, so your Smartphone can process the ﬁrst letter. This pause is called the “Multipress time-out,” and you can adjust the length of the pause between keypresses.

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.

To change the Multipress Time-Out setting:

1. Select Settings from the Start menu.

2. Select Accessibility.

3. In the Multipr ess time out field, select the length of the pause between keypresses that you prefer. (See illustrations on the next page.)

Started

T9 mode

When you are in the T9 mode, just press the number keys that contain the letters that you want to form a word. T9 will then analyse your keypresses and attempt to complete the word. For example: To enter the word "shoe," press 7, 4, 6, 3.

To enter text in T9 mode:

1. When in an editable ﬁeld, press and hold the asterisk (*) key until the input menu appears. Select the desired T9 language from the menu. The t9 indicator should display in the Title Bar.

2. Enter letters by pressing the keys on which the letters appear. Press a key only once for each letter.

3. Press the

# key to accept the word and enter a space after it, or press the Down button on the Navigation Pad to scroll through the available words; press the Action button to accept the word choice.

4. Press 1 and then press the Up or Down button on the Navigation Pad to cycle through common punctuation symbols.

Smartphone User Manual

1. Getting

Started

NOTE: T9 cannot always ﬁnd the word you want in the T9 dictionary. In these cases, switch to Multipress mode. After you have entered the word in Multipress mode, the word will be added to the T9 dictionary.

Numeric mode

When you are in the Numeric mode, just press the number(s) you want to enter on the keypad. If a ﬁeld permits numerical entry only, such as the Work phone ﬁeld in Contacts, the input mode will automatically default to Numeric mode.

Miscellaneous input tasks

• To enter a space: In Multipress or T9 mode, press the # key.

• To start a new line: Press the Action button.

• To switch between uppercase, lowercase, and caps lock: Press the * key.

• To enter a symbol: Press and hold the # key, select the symbol you want, and then press the Done softkey.

• To enter a number, an asterisk (*), or a pound sign (#): Press and hold the * button on the phone keypad to pop up a selection list, then select

123 for Numeric mode. You can then press the desired corresponding key on the keypad.

• To delete ch aract ers: Pr ess the Back but ton to backspace over a single character. Press and hold the Back button to backspace and delete all text in a ﬁeld.

• To enter the plus (+) sign for international calls: Press and hold 0.

1.7 Securing Your Smartphone

You can customise the level of security you want to have on your Smartphone by locking the SIM card, the keypad, or the entire phone.

Locking the keypad

The keypad lock turns off the keypad functionality. This is a helpful feature if, for example, the phone is turned on and in your pocket, and you want to prevent accidental keypresses from dialing a number, etc. One way is to select Settings > Security > Enable Phone Lock from the Start menu. Another way:

• To lock your keypad: When in the Home screen, press and hold the

End button. The Left Softkey will display

Unlock, indicating that your phone is locked.

• To unlock your keypad: When in the Home screen, press the Unlock softkey, and press the # key.

Locking the SIM card

Locking your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card prevents you from using your Smartphone, but you can still turn it on and make emergency calls. When you turn your Smartphone on, you will be prompted for your PIN1 password, which you must enter correctly before you can use the phone.

• To lock the SIM: Select Settings > Security > Enable SIM Lock, and then press the Action button. Enter your PIN1 password, and then press the Done softkey.

• To unlock the SIM: Select Settings > Security > Disable SIM Lock, and then press the Action button. Enter your PIN1 password, and then press the Done softkey.
