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.

USING THE KEYBOARD
When using the keyboard, most people find it easiest to hold the smartphone with two hands and
to use the tips of both thumbs to press the keys.

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

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.

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.

■ 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.

Dialing by contact name
You can look up contacts quickly by entering just a few letters of a contact’s name directly from
your Today screen. If you have no contacts listed on your smartphone, you can add contacts
directly into your smartphone (see “Adding a contact” on page 42), but the fastest way to enter
lots of contacts is to enter them in your desktop software and then synchronize to transfer them
from your computer to your smartphone (see “Synchronizing information” on page 20).
1. Go to your Today screen (see “Using your Today screen” on page 19).
2. Using the keyboard, begin entering one of the following for the
contact you want to call:
■
First name (JOH for John)
■
Last name (SMI for Smith)
■
First initial, a space, and then last initial (J S for John Smith)
■
First name and last name (JOH SMI for John Smith)
For example, entering SM finds both Smilla Anderson and John
Smith. Entering SM A finds only Smilla Anderson.
3. Select the number you want to dial.
4. Press Phone/Send to dial.
NOTE To clear the Dial Lookup field and start another Contacts search, press OK. To delete letters when correcting a
misspelled name, press Backspace.
