Dynamic Noise Suppression from Audience™
Your phone is equipped with an advanced voice processing chip that delivers clear mobile calls by suppressing background noise,
intermittent sounds (like a siren or nearby conversation), and echoes, allowing you to hear and be heard nearly anywhere.
How Does It Work?
Based on the intelligence of the human hearing system, the technology:
•
Captures, evaluates and distinguishes all the sound signals surrounding your phone, and the person you're speaking with.
•
Then isolates the primary voice in conversation and filters out the background noise - so the person you're calling hears only your voice, without
disturbing background noise.
•
Dynamically equalizes and adjusts voice volume to optimize your calling experience, so you can hear clearly and don't need to speak louder to overcome
surrounding noise.
The noise suppression technology is built-in and already enabled in your new mobile phone. So it's ready to provide unsurpassed voice
clarity with every call.

Section 1: Getting Started
This section describes the first steps to operating your phone.
SIM Card Information
When you subscribe for 3G cellular network services, you receive
a plug-in SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card loaded with your
subscription details, such as your PIN, and available optional
services.
Activating Your Phone
Activating your phone requires several things: inserting the SIM
card, charging the battery, and turning on the phone.
䊳
If necessary, power-off the phone by pressing and holding
the key until the power-off image displays.
Removing the Battery
1. Use a coin or other object inserted in the slot on the back
cover (1) and turn it counter-clockwise to open the battery
cover (2).
5
2. Use the grooves at the top of the cover to lift the cover up
and away from the back of the phone (1).
Lift the battery up (1) and away (2) from the phone, as
3.
shown.
Installing and Removing the SIM Card
Important!:
The plug-in SIM card and its contacts can be easily damaged by
scratches or bending. Use caution when inserting or removing
the card, and keep all SIM cards out of reach of children.
1. Remove the back cover and battery.
2. Make sure to orient the SIM card with the gold contacts
facing down and the corner notch positioned as shown
below, then slide the SIM card completely into the socket.
3. To remove the SIM, gently slide it out of the socket.
Note:
The angled corner of the SIM should be inserted as shown in the
previous diagram. Improperly inserting the SIM can cause the phone to
not recognize the SIM.
Getting Started 6
Installing the microSD™ Card
Correct
Incorrect
To add additional memory to your phone, you can insert a
microSD card into the memory card slot, located to the left of the
SIM card, inside the phone.
Use the following instructions and illustrations for proper
