If the indicator light doesn’t turn on when you connect your smartphone to the AC charger, double-check the cable connection and the electrical outlet to which it is connected.

When your smartphone is on (see Turning your smartphone on and off), the onscreen battery icon displays the charging status:

A red lightning bolt indicates that the battery is connected to a wall outlet and is charging.

A green lightning bolt indicates that the battery is connected to a wall outlet and is fully charged.

A partial battery without a lightning bolt indicates that the battery is not connected to a wall outlet and it has some power.

An almost empty battery that is red at the bottom indicates that you need to charge the battery immediately.

Highlighting and selecting items

On most screens, one item—a button, a list entry, or a check box—is highlighted by default. The highlight identifies which item is affected by your next action. Use the 5-way to move the highlight from one item to another before opening or selecting it.

The highlight can take one of two forms, depending on what is highlighted:

• Border glow: When an onscreen button

(such as OK or Cancel) or pick list is highlighted, the item displays a glow around its border. If an entire list screen

TIP

When a border appears at the top and bottom of a list screen, press Center on the 5-way to highlight the first item in the list.

• Colored background: When a phone

number, text, an email address, a web link, or an item in a list is highlighted, the item is displayed as white text against a colored background. Examples of lists include the Contacts list, the Messaging Inbox, and the Tasks list.

After highlighting an item, you can select or activate it by pressing Center , or by tapping the item with the stylus.

The phone and the screen of your smartphone can be turned off and on separately. This means that you can wake up the screen to use just the organizer features of your smartphone, without turning on the phone. Also, when the screen is turned off, the phone can be on and ready for you to receive and make calls.

Once you form a partnership with a device, you don’t need to enter a passkey to connect with that device again. Partnership is also known as paired relationship, pairing, trusted device, and trusted pair.

Once you set up a partnership with a Bluetooth headset or car kit, you can communicate with that device whenever it is turned on and within range. Bluetooth range is up to 30 feet/10 meters in optimum environmental conditions. Performance and range may be reduced by physical obstacles, radio interference from nearby electronic equipment, and other factors.

The longer the passkey, the more difficult it is for the passkey to be deciphered.

YOUR EMAIL AND OTHER MESSAGES

Which application should I use?

Your smartphone includes the VersaMail® application (called Email in Applications View), which you can use to access your corporate, personal, and fee-based Internet email. You can also access web-based email, like Yahoo! Mail or Hotmail, from the web browser on your smartphone.

NOTE Your wireless service provider may

offer additional email applications that are compatible with your Treo 700 smartphone. Contact your wireless service provider’s customer service department for more info.

TIP

An email application is not an email provider. It works with an account from a provider to transfer messages to your smartphone.

KEY TERM

Email provider The service you

use to send and receive email. Your email provider’s name appears between the @ symbol and the dot symbol in your email address.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN You must activate

data services on your wireless service provider account before you can use email on your smartphone.

The VersaMail application

Before you can use VersaMail, you need to enter your email account settings. If you have multiple email accounts, you must enter settings for each email account.

You can find additional information on using and customizing VersaMail in the User Guide for the VersaMail Application on your computer.
