ATTENTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the Oricom Touch
Phone with its high tech touch sensitive keypad. The touch
panel is much more sensitive than a normal phone keypad
and provides very fast and responsive keying - however
like most new technology it takes a little getting used to.

To get the best use out of your Touch Phone

• Pick it up from the rear and cradle it in your hand.

• During use, avoid touching the keypad area unnecessarily

to prevent accidental triggering of the keypad.

• The keypad will automatically disable when you hold

the receiver to your ear. The idea being, to reduce the risk
of accidental keypad presses while the phone is held
against the side of your face.
