LEARNING THE BASICS

TURNING YOUR SMARTPHONE ON/OFF

The phone and organizer features of your smartphone can be turned on and off separately. This means you can wake up the screen to use just the organizer features, without turning on the phone. Also, when the screen is turned off, the phone can be on and ready for you to make and receive calls.
NOTE To conserve battery power, the screen turns off automatically after one minute. If you want the screen to stay on longer, you can adjust the shutoff setting. Press Start, select Settings, select the System tab, and then select Power. Select the Advanced tab, and then increase the On battery power setting.

Turning your phone on and off

When you turn on your phone, it connects to a mobile network so that you can make and receive phone calls and use other wireless services.
1. Press and hold Power/End to turn on your phone. When your smartphone locates a signal, the words Verizon Wireless and the signal-strength icon appear at the top of the
screen and the indicator light flashes green, indicating you can use the phone and Internet features (if supported by the local network). If you’re outside a coverage area, the indicator light flashes amber and no bars appear in the signal-strength icon.
2. When your phone is on, press and hold Power/End again to turn off your phone. When your phone is off, the phone-off icon appears at the top of the screen and your smartphone is not connected to any mobile network. You can still use the organizer and other features.
7

Waking up the screen

Wake up the screen and leave the phone turned off when you want to use only the organizer features of your smartphone. You can also turn off your smartphone’s screen without turning off your smartphone’s wireless features.
1. Press Power/End to wake up the screen.
2. Briefly press Power/End to turn off the screen.

MOVING AROUND THE SCREEN

To move around your smartphone screen, you can use the 5-way navigator or you can tap items on the screen with the stylus. As you become familiar with your smartphone, you’ll find your own favorite way to scroll, highlight, and select items.
The 5-way includes the Right , Left , Up , Down , and Center buttons.

LEARNING THE BASICS

Scrolling through screens

As on a computer, on your smartphone you scroll to move from field to field or page to page, or in some cases to highlight an item or option in a list.
There are several methods of scrolling:
Use the 5-way on the front of your smartphone. Press Right , Left , Up , or
Down to move to the next field, button, or action in that direction.
Press and hold Option while pressing Up or Down
to scroll one screen at a time. These keys work just like the Page Up and Page Down keys on your computer keyboard.
Press and hold Option while pressing Left or Right
to jump to the top or bottom of the current document or entry.
When viewing a screen with tabs, such as when adding a
contact or customizing settings, press Down to scroll to the tabs, and then press Left or Right to move between tabs.
When inside a text field, press Right or Left to move to
the next character, and press Up or Down to move between lines.
When inside a list, press and hold Up or Down to rapidly scroll through the list.
Tap an onscreen scroll arrow.
Tap and drag the slider of an onscreen scroll bar.

Closing screens

To accept the information you entered on a screen (or close a screen where no information was changed) and return to the previous screen, do one of the following:
Press OK .
Use the stylus to tap or in the upper-right corner of the screen.

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: This rectangular border highlights items such as an onscreen
button (for example OK, Dismiss, or Hide), a check box, an option, or a web link.
Reverse type (light text on a dark background): This highlights
items such as a phone number, an email address, text, or an item in a list.
After highlighting an item with the 5-way, you can select or activate it by pressing Center . You can also select or activate an item by tapping it with the stylus.
10
LEARNING THE BASICS

Using the action keys

The left and right action keys give you quick access to tasks that you can do on the current screen, so the action key items vary from application to application and from screen to screen. Look on the screen directly above the action key to see the action that it does in the current context. In some contexts, these keys may do nothing at all. In most cases the right action key
opens the menu, and the left action key activates a specific command, such as New or Edit. Remember that action key functions vary from screen to screen, so be sure to check the onscreen label before pressing the action keys.

Selecting menu items

In many applications, a menu provides access to additional features. The menu is hidden until you press Menu (right action key). To get the most out of your smartphone, it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with the additional features available through the menu in various applications.
11
1. Press Menu (right action key) to display an application’s
menu.
2. Press Up or Down to highlight a menu item.
3. If an arrow appears next to a menu item, press Center or
Right to display additional options for that item, and then press Up or Down to highlight a menu item. To return to the main
menu without making a selection, press Left .
4. Press Center to select the menu item, or press Left or
Menu (right action key) to close the menu and cancel your selection.

Selecting options in a shortcut menu

Most applications also provide access to context-sensitive, shortcut menus—similar to the right-click menus on a computer. The shortcut menu options vary based on the highlighted selection.
1. Highlight the item for which you want to open the shortcut
menu.
2. Press and hold Center to open the shortcut menu.
3. Press Up or Down to highlight a menu item.
4. Press Center to select the menu item or press Left to cancel your selection.
NOTE You can also tap and hold an item with the stylus to open the shortcut menu.
12
LEARNING THE BASICS

Selecting options in a list

Lists let you select from a range of options. You can identify whether a list is available when you select the field. If a rectangle appears around the field along with a downward-pointing arrow, a list is available. Lists are different from the menus described earlier in this section.
In a list, do any of the following:
Use the 5-way to highlight the field, and then press
Center to display the items in the list. Press Up or Down to highlight the item you want, and then press Center to accept your selection.
Use your stylus to tap the arrow, and then tap the item in the list
to select it.
To exit the list and cancel your selection, press Left .
NOTE When selecting fields you might not see the downward-pointing arrow until you
press Center on the 5-way. In fields where you see a downward-pointing arrow but no rectangle, you must tap the arrow with the stylus to expand the field.

Understanding the keyboard backlight

Your smartphone includes a keyboard backlight for low light conditions. The keyboard backlight activates automatically when the screen turns on. The backlight turns off automatically when the screen turns off or when you are on a call or playing music in the background for longer than the time specified in Backlight Settings. You can set different time intervals depending on whether the smartphone is operating on battery power or is connected to an external power source (see the User Guide for details). The backlight also turns off when an application’s power-saving features turn it off.
14
LEARNING THE BASICS

Entering lowercase and uppercase letters

By default, the first letter of each sentence or field is capitalized and the remaining text you enter is lowercase. To enter other uppercase letters, do one of the following:
Press Shift (this symbol appears at the bottom of the screen), and then enter a letter.
You don’t need to press and hold Shift while entering a letter.
Press Shift twice to turn on Caps Lock, and then enter a series of letters. When Caps
Lock is on, this symbol appears at the bottom of the screen: . To turn off Caps Lock, press
Shift again.

Entering numbers, punctuation, and symbols

Numbers, punctuation, and symbols appear above the letters on the keys. To enter these characters, do one of the following:
Press Option (this symbol appears at the bottom of the screen), and then press the key
of the desired character. You don’t need to hold Option while pressing the key.
Press Option twice to turn on Option Lock, and then press the desired keys to enter a
series of characters. When Option Lock is on, this symbol appears at the bottom of the screen: . To turn off Option Lock, press Option again.
15

Entering other symbols and accented characters

You can enter symbols and accented characters that don't appear on the keys using the alternate characters list. The alternate characters are grouped according to their similarity to the corresponding key. For example, the alternate characters available for the e key are é, è, ë, and ê.
1. Press Alt to display the alternate character list.
2. Narrow the list by pressing the key that corresponds to the character you want. For example,
to enter an é, press e. See the table on the next page for a list of corresponding characters.
3. Press Up or Down to highlight the desired character.
4. Press Center to insert the character.
NOTE If you don’t know which key to press to narrow the list in step 2, you can scroll through the list until you find the character you want. If you press the wrong key, press Backspace to return to the full list of alternate characters. You can then press another key.

SYNCHRONIZING INFORMATION

Synchronizing simply means that information you entered or updated in one place—your smartphone, your computer, or your corporate server—is updated in the other. There’s no need to enter the information twice. You can synchronize using a cable or you can sync wirelessly.
To synchronize using the cable, you must first install the ActiveSync
®
software from the Getting
Started CD that came with your smartphone. See the Read This First setup poster for instructions. To synchronize wirelessly using Direct Push Technology, make sure you are accessing an Exchange Server 2003 that is upgraded with Service Pack 2. See “Setting up an Exchange Server email account” on page 48.
Each time you connect your smartphone to your computer, it automatically synchronizes the items that are set to sync, including files that you set up for synchronization. You can customize the sync settings (see “Setting synchronization options” on page 84) or use the default settings to synchronize your info in the following applications:
20
LEARNING THE BASICS
1. Connect your smartphone to your computer either
wirelessly or by using the sync cable. You should hear the ActiveSync tone.
2. Look for the ActiveSync icon at the top of your
smartphone’s screen and the ActiveSync icon in the taskbar on your computer.
If you don’t see the ActiveSync icon, make sure the desktop synchronization software that came with your smartphone is running on your computer.
If you have any problems synchronizing, see the User Guide for troubleshooting suggestions.
NOTE A backup and restore app preserves your data and settings if your smartphone is ever lost or stolen, and it protects your data during a hard reset. For information on using a backup, go to www.palm.com/mytreo700wxVerizon

MAXIMIZING BATTERY LIFE

Battery life depends on how you use your smartphone. You can maximize your smartphone’s battery life by following a few easy guidelines:
[ ! ] IMPORTANT Use only the charger provided with Treo 700wx smartphone. Using any charger other than the one
included with your Treo 700wx smartphone may damage your smartphone or battery.
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 when it is topped off frequently, versus charging it after it is fully drained.
This button has no function with your Treo 700wx smartphone
.
21
Your smartphone’s wireless features (phone, email, messaging, and web) generally consume
more power than the organizer features.
If you spend a lot of time using the camera (if included), games, media players, eBooks, or
other applications, keep an eye on the battery icon and charge when necessary.
If you don’t plan to use the wireless features on your smartphone for a while, turn off your
wireless services. You can forward calls to a different number or let all calls be picked up by voicemail (see the User Guide for details). To see if your wireless services are on, tap the phone-off icon, and then select Wireless Manager. If wireless services are on, you can turn all wireless services off in Wireless Manager by selecting All.
As with any mobile phone, if you are in an area with no wireless coverage, your smartphone
searches for a signal, which consumes power. If you cannot move to an area of better coverage, temporarily turn off your phone (see “Turning your phone on and off” on page 7).
Turn off your smartphone’s Bluetooth
®
wireless technology feature when you do not need to
have a Bluetooth connection.
Turn down the screen brightness (see “Adjusting the brightness” on page 96).
Set your screen to turn off automatically after a shorter period of inactivity (see the User
Guide for details).
Keep your battery away from direct sunlight and other sources of heat. Temperatures over
120 degrees Fahrenheit (50 degrees Celsius) can permanently reduce the capacity and life span of any lithium-ion battery.
NOTE If the battery is fully drained, it may take a few moments for the indicator light to turn on while charging. Don’t worry; your smartphone stores your info safely until you recharge the battery. To avoid draining the battery, charge and synchronize every day, especially if you use your smartphone often.

Headset specifications

Your smartphone works with mono and stereo headsets that have a 2.5mm, 3-pin connector. When in doubt, ask the third-party headset manufacturer if the product is compatible with Treo 700wx smartphones. If you hear a headset buzz or poor microphone performance, your headset may be incompatible with your smartphone.

Using a hands-free device with Bluetooth wireless technology

Your Treo smartphone is compatible with many headsets and car kits enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology version 1.1 or 1.2. However, if you want to use a Bluetooth headset for voice dialing, you must use the Voice Command software. See “Setting up and using Voice Command” on page 98 for instructions.
[ ! ] IMPORTANT For a list of compatible hands-free devices with Bluetooth wireless technology, go to
www.palm.com/mytreo700wxVerizon
.
37
To learn how to set up and connect to Bluetooth devices, see “Setting up a Bluetooth® connection” on page 66. Here are tips for working with a Bluetooth hands-free device:
If you’re using a hands-free Bluetooth device and it is within range, your smartphone routes
all calls to the hands-free device instead of to your smartphone’s earpiece. Bluetooth range is up to 30 feet in optimum environmental conditions.
To transfer the call back to the headset, press Menu (right action key) and select
Cancel Bluetooth. To transfer a call from the handset to a Bluetooth hands-free device during
a call, press Menu (right action key) and select Connect Bluetooth. You can also transfer a call to your smartphone by using the user interface on the headset or car kit. See the documentation that came with the device for directions.
To transfer a call from a wired headset to a Bluetooth headset or car kit that is within range
and with which you’ve previously set up a partnership (Bluetooth headset or car kit required, sold separately), unplug the wired headset and press the button on the Bluetooth headset or car kit.
NOTE If you have both a compatible Bluetooth headset and car kit, the one you connected to your smartphone last becomes the active device and all incoming and outgoing calls go to this device when it is in range and switched on. To change to another device, you need to switch the active device off and turn on the other device.

If your computer is enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology, you can also synchronize wirelessly.
[ ! ] IMPORTANT For a list of hands-free devices using Bluetooth wireless technology that are compatible with your
smartphone, go to www.palm.com/
us/products/smartphones/treo700w/bluetooth.html.
66
STAYING IN TOUCH
After you set up a connection with a Bluetooth device, you can communicate with that device whenever it is within range (about 30 feet in optimum environmental conditions) and your smartphone’s Bluetooth feature is turned on.
1. If necessary, prepare the device you want to connect with to
accept a new connection. Check the device’s documentation for details.
2. Go to your Today screen, and then tap Bluetooth .

find the passkey in the documentation for that device. Other devices provide a screen where you enter a passkey that you make up. In either case, you must use the same passkey on both your smartphone and the other Bluetooth device. We recommend that where possible, you make up a passkey of 16 alphanumeric
67
characters (letters and numerals only) to improve the security of your smartphone. The longer the passkey, the more difficult it is for the passkey to be deciphered.

You can now communicate with this device whenever it is within range (about 30 feet in optimum environmental conditions) and your smartphone’s Bluetooth feature is turned on (see steps 1 and 2 earlier in this section). If you’re using a hands-free Bluetooth device and it is within range (30 feet), your smartphone routes all calls to the hands-free device instead of your smartphone’s earpiece. When a call comes in, your smartphone rings and the car kit or headset beeps. Even if you pick up the call on your smartphone earpiece, the call goes to the headset or car kit.
