IMPORTANT Do not become distracted from driving safely if

operating a motor vehicle while using Device Software.

Operating certain parts of this Device requires user attention. Diverting attention away from the road while driving can possibly cause an accident or other serious consequences. Even occasional, short diversions of attention can be dangerous if your attention is diverted away from your driving task at a critical time. Do not change system settings or enter data non-verbally (using your hands) while driving. Stop the vehicle in a safe and legal manner before attempting these operations. This is importan t since while setting up or changing some functions you might be required to distract your attention away from the road and remove your hands from the wheel.

Microsoft makes no representations, warranties, or other determinations that ANY use of the Software Product is legal, safe, or in any manner recommended or intended while driving or otherwise operating a motor vehicle.

General Operation

NOTE The Voice Command application is not available in all

languages. See Setting up voice commands

Voice Command Control: Many of the functions of the Device Software can be accomplished using only voice commands. Using voice commands while driving allows you to initiate the command with a button and then operate the Device mostly without removing your hands from the wheel.

Page 3

Prolonged Views of Screen: If you are driving, do not access any function requiring a prolonged view of the screen. Pull over in a safe and legal manner before attempting to access a function of the system requiring prolonged attention. Even occasional short scans to the screen may be hazardous if your attention has been diverted away from your driving task at a critical time.

Volume Setting: Do not raise the volume excessively. Keep the volume at a level where you can still hear outside traffic and emergency signals while driving. Driving while unable to hear these sounds could cause an accident.

Let Your Judgment Prevail: The Device Software is only an aid. Make your driving decisions based on your observations of local conditions and existing traffic regulations. The Device Software is not a substitute for your personal judgment.

Use of Speech Recognition Functions: Speech recognition software is inherently a statistical process w hich is subject to errors. It is your responsibility to monitor the speech recognition functions and address any errors.

Inserting the SIM card and battery

To use your smartphone’s phone, email, or web features, you need to insert a SIM card. If a SIM card is not included in your smartphone box, your network operator will provide you with one.

TIP

If you don’t have a SIM card, contact your

network operator.

7 If your SIM card is not already activated,

follow the activation steps provided by your network operator, or contact your network operator directly for

assistance. If you plan to use email and web browsing, you need high-speed data service from your network operator in addition to your service contract. You may also need high-speed data service to send and receive multimedia messages.

TIP

You can buy an extra battery as a spare for long airplane trips or periods of heavy data use. To ensure proper functioning, be sure to use batteries from Palm only. Visit www.palm.com

Charging the battery

Although the battery may come with a sufficient charge to complete the setup process, we recommend that after setup you charge your smartphone for three hours (or until the indicator light is solid green) to give it a full charge. See Maximizing battery life your battery’s power last longer.

Maximizing battery life

Battery life depends on how you use your smartphone. You can maximize the life of your battery by following a few easy guidelines:

• Charge your smartphone whenever

you’re at your desk, or charge it overnight each day. The battery in your smartphone has a much longer useful life if you charge it frequently instead of waiting until it’s fully drained.

• If you spend a lot of time using the

camera, games, media players (including listening to music with wireless headphones using your smartphone’s built-in Bluetooth

wireless technology), or other applications, keep an eye on the battery icon and charge when necessary.

• If you are synchronizing email and other

information directly with your corporate Exchange Server using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync

, set the synchronization interval to not more often than every 15 minutes during peak times and every hour (or turned off completely) during non-peak times (see Setting the synchronization schedule

• Turn off the Bluetooth feature when you

do not need to make a Bluetooth connection (see Entering basic Bluetooth settings).

Moving around on your smartphone

Have you ever been to a new city and felt a bit lost until you figured out the streets? Learning to move around on your smartphone is similar. Most applications that work on your smartphone use the same set of controls. So once you learn how to use these controls, you’ll be driving all over town and you won’t even need a map.

Benefits

• Quickly move around and

complete tasks in applications using one thumb on the 5-way navigator

• Access extra features with menus

• Find and open applications quickly

• Use the stylus to tap or in the

upper-right corner of the screen. These buttons are not accessible using the 5-way.

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.

TIP

The best way to learn to use the 5-way is to experiment. Press the 5-way buttons and as you do, follow the movement of the border around the screen. The behavior of the 5-way varies slightly in each application.

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

• Border: This rectangular border

Synchronizing information

Synchronizing simply means that information that has been entered or updated in one place—your smartphone, your computer, or your corporate server—is automatically updated in the other. There’s no need to enter information twice. Some kinds of synchronization can happen on an automated schedule, so you don’t even have to think about it.

After you get into the habit of synchronizing regularly, you’ll know what a powerful tool synchronization is for transferring, updating, and backing up large amounts of information on your smartphone.

Benefits

• Quickly enter and update

information on your computer and your smartphone

• Protect your information

• Send photos and videos to your

smartphone from your desktop computer

SYNCHRONIZING INFORMATION

This chapter discusses using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync

and other methods to synchronize your smartphone and your computer.

Synchronization enables you to enter or change information on your smartphone or in Microsoft Office Outlook

. Your info is then automatically updated in both places; there’s no need to enter the info twice. This is true whether you sync wirelessly with your company’s Exchange Server using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync (see Setting up wireless synchronization

) or with your computer using ActiveSync desktop software (see Setting up your computer for synchronization).

By default, the info from the following applications is synchronized for either method of synchronization:

You can, however, customize sync settings to suit your needs and sync only some of these applications.

If you set up ActiveSync synchronization with your computer, information in the Favorites application is synchronized by default as well. You can also change settings to synchronize Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF files, as well as pictures, music, videos, and other types of files (see Changing which applications sync). For synchronization of music and videos, you also must have Windows

from the Windows Mobile Getting Started Disc, which came with your smartphone.

You must install this software even if you have already installed a previous version of ActiveSync desktop software. See Installing the desktop synchronization software for instructions.
