Before using your Apollo, you must contact a network operator to get a personal SIM (Subscriber Identity Module).

The SIM card contains your Apollo number, the services included in your subscription, and your personal data such as your phonebook and messages. The phone is unusable (except for emergency calls) until a valid SIM card is inserted. Your Apollo will display a warning message if the SIM card is not inserted properly.

Please note

If the phone or the SIM card is lost or stolen, you should contact your network operator immediately in order to prevent unauthorized use.

Copy SIM contacts to phone memory

To copy your SIM contacts to your Apollo, tap Start > Programs > SIM contacts > Copy Now button.

2.3 Battery

Your Apollo contains a removable and rechargeable Li-ion polymer battery. Battery life will depend on actual usage, network coverage and whether the device is on standby mode.

Battery life estimates:

• Talk-time: 5.5 hrs.

• Standby: 150 hrs (approximate).

The above timings are based on the assumption that the user only uses one function at a time. Battery life may also vary depending on how frequently the user switches between functions. For battery safety, please refer to Chapter 13 The important safety bit at the Back.

Please note

Using any battery pack or AC adapter (charger) not specied/endorsed by O

on this phone may be dangerous

and may invalidate any warranty and approval given to the phone. Unplug the charger from the power supply when it is not in use.

Charging the battery

A new battery must be fully charged (for 8 hours) before being used for the rst time. You may charge the battery in the following ways:

• AC Adapter: Connect the battery

charger to a suitable main power socket and the charger plug into the connector of your Apollo. Note the

orientation when plugged in.

Please note

• When charging, make sure that the phone has its battery inserted. Place the battery’s

metallic end towards phone’s metallic part. Please refer to 2.1 Inserting the Battery & 2.2 SIM card on inserting the battery correctly.

• During charging, the LED lights up amber. When charging is completed, the amber light

goes off.

• USB Cable: Connect your Apollo to your PC’s USB port with the USB cable supplied in your package as shown below.

Checking the battery

The battery indicator displays the charge level of the battery. Check the icon at the top right corner of the Today screen.

• Full battery power

• Low battery power

• Battery empty

• Battery charging

Low battery indication

When the battery voltage falls below the working level, a warning message appears on the screen and a warning tone sounds to alert you, if you activate the warning sounds for system events (Please see Chapter 11. Settings). Save the data you are working on at the moment, perform synchronization with your PC, and turn off your Apollo. (For more details about data safety, please see 2.9 Data Backup).

2.4 Switching the device on or off

• Press the Power button on the top of

2.5 Screen tapping & calibration

When you rst start up your Apollo, you will be asked to calibrate the screen by tapping the center of a cross with your stylus as it moves around the screen. This process ensures that, when you tap the screen with your stylus, the tapped item is activated.

Re-calibrate the screen

If your Apollo does not respond accurately to screen taps, you will need to recalibrate it:

1. Tap Start > Settings > System tab >

Screen.

2. Tap the Align Screen button on the

2. On the General tab, select the Orientation by tapping Portrait, Landscape (right- handed), and Landscape (left-handed).

The Portrait mode allows you to get a better view or a better operation of certain programs on your Apollo, while Landscape may be optimal for viewing longer text les.

2.7 Entering information

You can enter information on your Apollo in the following ways:

• Synchronizing: Using ActiveSync, exchange information between your PC and device. (For more information, see Chapter 3 Synchronization).

• Typing: Using the input panel or the keyboard, enter typed text into the device. You can do this by tapping keys on the screen soft keyboard, by pressing the keyboard, or by using the handwriting recognition software

• Writing: Using the stylus, write directly on the screen.
