Your phone features earSmart™, an intelligent voice processor that delivers a clear voice experience, allowing you to
in nearly any environment. earSmart technology uses the science of human hearing to distinguish sounds, identify your voice, and
suppress surrounding noise for clear conversations just about anywhere.
How Does It Work?
•
The earSmart voice processor in your phone captures your voice and all the sounds around you.
•
Working like the human ear, it processes and distinguishes these sounds, isolates your voice conversation, and removes background noise – from both
ends of a call.
•
It also automatically equalizes and adjusts voice volume so you can hear and talk naturally, even in the noisiest places.
•
With earSmart technology, you can talk where you want, and have clear conversations for mobile calls, video chats, even speakerphone calls, without
worrying about surrounding noise.

Section 1: Getting Started
This section explains how to start using your phone by first
configuring your hardware, activating your service, and then
setting up your voice mail.
Setting Up Your Phone
Prior to use, it is necessary to install both the battery and SIM
into their corresponding internal compartments.
1. Remove the battery cover by placing your fingernail
into the slot in the side of the cover (1).
2. Pull the cover up (2) and then lift up and away from the
phone (3).
Getting Started 5
Page 10
Installing the SIM Card
A Subscriber Identity Module (SIM Card) is a “smartcard” that
houses personal information, such as your mobile phone
number, calling plan, account information, and content, such
as contacts, text messages, and call history.
The Verizon Wireless 4G LTE SIM Card is compatible with any
Verizon Wireless 4G LTE certified device. You can move the
4G LTE SIM Card from one device to another and your
wireless service will work seamlessly as long as you have a
compatible device and service plan. To see which devices
are compatible with the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE SIM Card,
visit
verizonwireless.com/certifieddevice
.
With the battery removed, carefully slide the SIM card
into the SIM card socket (as shown) until the card locks
into place.
•
Make sure that the card’s gold contacts face into the phone
and that the upper-left angled corner of the card is positioned
as shown.
Important!
6
The plug-in SIM card information and its contacts
can be easily damaged by scratching or bending,
so be careful when handling, inserting, or
removing the card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach
of small children.
Note:
If the card is not inserted correctly, the phone will not
detect the SIM card. Re-orient the card back into the slot
if the SIM is not detected.
Page 11
Installing the Battery
1. Insert the battery into the opening on the back of
the phone, making sure the three metal connectors
align (1).
2. Gently press down to secure the battery (2).
3. Replace the battery cover (the back of the phone) by
aligning the bottom of the battery cover with the phone
as shown.
4. Press the cover down into place.
Getting Started 7
Page 12
5. Press down firmly along the edges of the cover to
ensure that the cover is flush with the phone. You
should hear a light click as the cover locks in place.
Note:
Make sure the battery is properly installed before
switching on the phone.
8
Charging a Battery
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. The
Wall/USB Charger, which is used to charge the battery, is
included with your phone. Use only approved batteries and
chargers. Long backlight settings, searching for service,
vibrate mode, browser use, and other variables may reduce
the battery’s talk and standby times.
Although you can use the phone while the battery is
charging, doing so requires additional charging time.
Note:
You must fully charge the battery before using your
phone for the first time. A discharged battery recharges
fully in approximately 4 hours.
Important!
Verify that the handset battery is installed prior to
connection. If the battery is not properly installed
and the wall charger is connected, the handset
may power off and on continuously, preventing
proper operation.
Page 13
Using the Wall/USB Charger
1. Connect the USB cable to the power adapter.
2. Plug the power adapter into a standard
electrical outlet.
3. Connect the small end of the USB cable into the
phone’s Micro USB Charging Port.
Note:
When you connect the charger, your phone powers on
automatically. Your Windows phone stays powered on
whenever it is charging.
Warning!
While the device is charging, if the touch screen
does not function due to an unstable power supply,
unplug the USB power adapter from the power outlet
or unplug the USB cable from the device.
4. When charging is finished, remove the flat end from
the interface connector jack on the phone.
Note:
Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the
battery can cause damage to the phone.
Getting Started 9
Page 14
Low Battery Indicator
When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time
remain, the “Battery critically low” warning appears and the
device sounds a warning tone at regular intervals.
For a quick check of your battery level, glance at the battery
charge indicator located in the upper-right corner of your
device’s display. A solid battery icon () indicates a
full charge.
When the battery level becomes too low, the phone
automatically turns off.
Note:
If the phone automatically turns off because the battery
level is too low, you must charge the battery until the
phone turns on automatically.
10
Memory Card
Your device supports optional, removable, microSD or
microSDHC memory cards (not included) for storage of
music, pictures, and other files.

2. Place the card with the gold strips facing down.
3. Carefully slide the optional microSD card into the card
slot (as shown) until it “clicks” into place.

Linking People Information
Many people now maintain multiple email accounts, social
networking logins, and other similar account information. For
example, a Facebook account login name might differ from a
corporate email account login because they are maintained
separately and for different groups of people.
This device can synchronize with multiple accounts such as
Windows Live, Outlook, Google, Facebook, Twitter, and
LinkedIn. When you synchronize your phone with these
accounts, each account creates a separate contact entry in
the People list.
If one of your contacts (Amy Smith, for example) has a
regular email account that you maintain in Hotmail, but also
has a Facebook account under her maiden and married
name, as well as a Google account, when you merge these
accounts into your Contacts list you can link all of her entries
and view the information in one record.

The next time you synchronize your phone with your
accounts, any updates that contacts make to email account
names, email addresses, etc. automatically update in your
