• Setting Up Your Voice Mail

This section explains how to start using your device by activating your service, setting up your
voice mail, or getting an understanding of how this manual is put together.

Section 1: Getting Started 7

Understanding this User Manual

The chapters of this guide generally follow the same order as the menus and sub-menus
in your device. A robust index for quick reference to most features begins on page 172.

Also included is important safety information that you should know before using your
device. Most of this information is near the back of the guide, beginning on page 150.

Notes and tips

Throughout this guide are icons and text that are set apart from the rest. These are
intended to point out important information, quick methods for activating features, to
define terms, and more. The definitions for these methods are as follows:

• Notes: Explain alternative options within the current feature, menu, or sub menu.

• Tips: Provide quick or innovative methods for performing functions related to the subject at

hand.

• Fast Facts: Are like snippets from a glossary. Fast facts provide definitions in context and

proximity to the menu or feature in question.

• Important: Points out important information about the current feature that could affect

performance, or even damage your device.

Activating Your Device

Contact your Wireless Carrier and follow their instructions for obtaining service, if
necessary. We suggest that you read this guide to fully understand the services your
device supports.

Install the Battery

Note: Your device comes packaged with a partially charged rechargeable standard Li-Ion battery and travel adapter.

Important: Y ou must fully charge the battery the first time you use your device, otherwise you could damage the battery.

You can use your device while the battery is charging, but the battery will take longer to recharge.

tabs on the end align with the slots at the top of the
phone.(1) Press the battery down until it clicks into
place.(2)

before switching on the phone.

Turn Your Device On

1. Open the slide on your device.

2. Press and hold the key for two or more seconds.

Note: As with any other radio-transmitting device, do not touch the antenna (located at the top of the battery

compartment) while using your device as this can affect call quality and can cause the device to operate at a higher
power level than is necessary.

3. The device begins searching for a network signal.

4. Once the device finds a signal, the current time displays on the upper, right side of

the icon bar.

5. You’re now ready to place and receive calls.

Note: If you are outside of your carrier’s coverage or roaming area, the No Service icon ( ) appears at the top of the

device’s display. If you cannot place or receive calls, try later when service is available, or at another location.

Turn Your Device Off

䡲 Press and hold the key for two or more seconds. Your device powers off.

Note: If your device is on and you press for less than one second, the device will not power off. This prevents your

convenient, light-weight charger that rapidly charges your
device from any 120/220 VAC outlet.

1. Plug the large end of the Travel Adapter into a

standard 120 VAC or 220 VAC wall outlet.

the lower right side of your device.

Note: The following illustration shows the correct and incorrect method for connecting the charger. Verify the arrow on

Text Entry Modes

Text Entry Modes

You can compose text messages using alphabetical characters, symbols, and numbers.
Each method of character entry (symbol, number, and so on) is called a text entry mode.
There are five text entry modes, as indicated:

• Alpha — Alphabetical text entry mode. Options are:

• ABC — All upper case

• Abc — Initial capital

• abc — All lower case

• Korean — Korean text entry mode. Allows you to enter Korean characters.

• Symbol — Symbol entry mode. Enter symbols into your message or memo by pressing the

corresponding number that appears above it in the display.

• 123 — Number entry. Enter numbers by pressing the corresponding key on the keypad.

• T9Word — Predictive text mode. Press each key only once to enter the letter of the word that

you’re spelling.

Your current mode of text entry [Abc, KOR, Symbol, T9Word, or 123] is indicated in the
lower right part of the display when composing a text message.

Changing the Text Entry Mode

1. While composing a text message, press the Right soft touch key ( ) to toggle the

text input mode through the following options:

• T9Word

• 123

• Symbol

• KOR

• Abc

Note: Each of the text entry modes are explained in greater detail in ‘Section 13: MESSAGE” on page 134.

Entering Text in Alpha (Abc) Mode

1. Enter characters while in Alpha (Abc) mode by pressing the key with the desired

characters (such as, pressing once for “g”).

2. Press the key repeatedly until the desired character appears in the display (such as,

pressing two times for “h”).

GHI

3. Pau se briefly and the displayed character is accepted and inserted into your message.

4. Press the key to enter a space.

SPACE

GHI

Section 5: Entering Text 49

Entering Text in T9 Word Mode

T9 Word recognizes commonly used words for a sequence of keypresses and inserts the

word into your message. Using T9 mode is much faster than the more traditional method
Alpha mode, since T9 requires only one key press per letter of the word that you are
spelling.

Note: See ‘Changing the Text Entry Mode” on page 49 for instructions on changing text entry modes.

1. While in T9 Word mode, press each key that corresponds to a desired letter, in

sequence, one time.
For example, if you press the key sequence , and the word “bad”

ABC ABC

appears on the screen.

2. When you have completed pressing all the keys for the desired word, review the word

displayed in your text.

3. If the word is not the one you meant to enter, press the key to show the next

word that matches the sequence of keys that you pressed.
For example, when you press the key sequence , the word “and”

appears on the screen. Suppose the word you want is “cod”. Just press the
key until “cod” appears in the display.

DEF

NEXT

MNO

ABC

DEF

NEXT

Note: If more than one word shares the same numeric sequence (such as, “263” for both “and” and “cod”), T9 Word
provides the most commonly used word (such as, “and” for “263”). Press the key to display other words, if any
are available.

NEXT

For practice, enter the work ‘Samsung’ into your message by pressing each of the
following keys only once:

PQRS

MNO

ABC

PQRS

MNO

TUV

GHI

SAMSUNG

T9 Word recognizes that the most commonly used word for the sequence of keys you
just pressed is “Samsung.”

Tip: To enter words not likely to be in the T9 Word dictionary, such as uncommon abbreviations or slang, you might want
to change the text entry mode from T9 Word to Abc or ABC.

50

Entering Upper and Lower Case Letters

Entering Upper and Lower Case Letters

In Abc and T9 Word modes, you can select to enter only upper case letters (ABC/T9
WORD), only lower case letters (abc/T9 word), or a mix of the two (Abc/T9 Word).

1. While in T9 Word or Abc mode, repeatedly press the key to change the

SHIFT

capitalization setting.
The left soft touch key label changes to indicate the current capitalization setting.
For example, if the left soft touch key label is ABC, and you want to enter the word

“ball”, press the key until the left soft touch key label changes to abc, then

SHIFT

enter the word “ball”.

Tip: To enter a capital letter within a word, such as “SimTam”, change the capitalization setting to Abc at the beginning
of the word and before entering the “T”. The capitalization setting will automatically change to abc after you enter each
upper case letter.

Entering Korean

Enter Korean characters into a text message or memo while in Korean mode (KOR).

Note: See ‘Changing the Text Entry Mode” on page 49 for instructions on changing text entry modes.

While in KOR mode, press the key containing the corresponding Korean characte r that

Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology capable of exchanging
information over a distance of about 30 feet without requiring a physical connection.

Unlike infrared, you don't need to line up the devices to beam information with Bluetooth. If
the devices are within a range of one another, you can exchange information between
them, even if they are located in different rooms.

The Bluetooth wireless technology settings menu provides the ability to view and change
the device name, show the visibility, and set the security for the device.

Bluetooth Mode

When the Bluetooth is turned on, you can use the Bluetooth features available. When the
Bluetooth is turned off, you cannot send or receive information via Bluetooth. To save
battery life or in situations where Bluetooth use is prohibited, such as airline traveling, you
can turn off the Bluetooth wireless technology headset.
