Standby and Talktime Information

Memory

Copyright and Legal Information
Your phone incorporates features that are new to the mobile phone world. These include camera and camcorder facilities, Email, advanced graphic games, music & video reproduction and browsing the Internet. To enhance the quality of reproduction we have also incorporated a 65,536 -colour display. The way you use this display and the features will affect the performance of the battery and how long it lasts between charge cycles. We have quoted standby times and talk times that show the minimum and maximum performance you can expect from the battery under normal network conditions and with the default settings as set by the factory. However, you should be aware that playing games (particularly with the backlight continuously switched on), using the camera and camcorder, listening to music and watching videos will shorten the time available for standby and to make and receive telephone calls.
Operation times also vary depending on network conditions, SIM settings, charging and battery condition, how you use your phone, and other factors.
Your phone contains an internal memory device that stores the software required to operate the mobile phone, communicate with the GSM/GPRS network and provide the user interface. We have also included some features in this internal memory to run additional devices, such as the camera, camcorder, and attachable keyboard, and some additional games and utilities. Unlike some other mobile phones you can also load your own games and other applications into the phone from, for example, websites such as:
http://www.sendo.com/shop
You should be aware that the amount of internal memory available in the phone is finite and may be insufficient to store large numbers of applications and media files. We have provided an additional external memory feature on the phone that provides more resource on which to store games, photos, video clips and applications.
You can add to the memory capacity of your phone by inserting a memory card.
z Warning: Remember to back up your data
frequently. Always back up all data and programs before sending your phone in for repair.

supplied by your service provider.
Charge the battery.
Install the Companion CD.
These simple steps are described on the next few pages.

The Basics
z Tip: You will have been supplied with a Quick
Start Guide with your Sendo X phone. This guide provides simple step-by-step information on getting started with your phone. Also, the interactive tutorial (the Sendo X Experience) on the Companion CD provides a demonstration of the basic features of your phone.

Inserting the SIM card

1. Remove the back cover of the phone - press down on the raised Sendo logo near the bottom of the phone, slide the cover down and lift off.
2. Remove the SIM from its packaging as detailed in the instructions provided with the SIM. Slide the SIM into the socket, with the logo facing you and the cutout towards the top of the phone (as shown below). Make sure that the gold-coloured contacts of the card are touching the contacts of the phone.
3. Insert the battery with the label facing up. Align the tabs at the top of the battery with the tabs on the back of the phone. Slide into place and press down.
If you need to remove the battery, ensure your phone is switched off, pull the small tab at the bottom of the phone and lift the battery out.
4. Replace the cover. Place the cover onto the back of the phone and slide the cover into place making sure the tabs click into place.

Charging the battery

You must charge the battery for at least 4 hours before you use the phone for the first time. After this, the battery will normally take around 2 to 3 hours to charge.
1. Insert the connector on the charger lead into the connector at the base of the phone.
z Note: Keep all SIM cards out of small children’s
reach. The SIM card is easily damaged by scratches or bending, so be cautious when inserting and removing the card.

The Basics
2. Plug the charger into a mains AC socket. When charging commences, the battery icon will
change into a charger cable icon (insert icon). When the battery is fully charged, the battery icon will reappear and you can disconnect the charger.
z Note: When the battery is completely
discharged it may take some time for the battery charging icon (insert icon) to appear after you have connected the charger.
Once you connect the charger, you can switch your phone on. If the battery is completely empty, it may take a few minutes before you can make or receive a call once you plug the phone into a charger.

Charging and discharging

Please observe the following precautions regarding the use of batteries and related equipment.
Note
Note that a new battery's full performance is achieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge cycles. Operation times provided vary depending on network conditions, SIM settings, charging and battery condition, how you use your phone, and other factors. Some activities, such as playing games, accessing the Internet or using other features, reduce talk and standby time.
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out. When the operating time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
Note
Use only batteries approved by Sendo and recharge your battery only with the chargers approved by Sendo. When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the power source. Do not leave the battery connected after the battery indicator shows that the battery is full, or for longer than a single day, since overcharging may shorten its life. If left unused a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.
Do not attempt to discharge the battery by any other means.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged or worn out.
Do not short circuit the battery. All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns if a conductive material such as jewelry or keys comes into contact with the exposed terminals. The material may complete an electrical circuit and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling your phone battery. For example, avoid carrying your phone battery loose in a pocket or purse. This product is designed for use with Sendo-approved batteries only. Use of unapproved batteries may be dangerous and may cause damage to the battery or the phone and may void your warranty.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter conditions, may reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). A phone with a battery that has been exposed to temperature extremes may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully charged.
Dispose of the battery properly. Comply with all local laws or regulations in disposing of your battery. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.

Common actions

You may notice that the pre-installed features on your phone share a common “look and feel”, for example:
menus are set out and navigated in the same
way
colour schemes are the same
the softkeys perform the same commands
This common design should make using the different features on your phone easier.
The table below shows a list of commands from the
Options menu which are common to most features
on the phone (apart from those which you have installed yourself). You can access these commands by pressing Options g.

Entering text and numbers

You can enter text and numbers on your phone using the keypad. Your phone supports three input modes for entering text and numbers:
Multitap - normal text entry mode.
T9 - predictive text entry mode.
Numeric - number entry mode
z Note: When you select a field that requires text
or numeric entry, the phone automatically defaults to the appropriate input mode. The status indicator on the title bar shows the input mode you are currently using.
z Note: Some networks may not support all
language dependent characters.
!
To switch input modes
Press and hold the Hash # key until the status
indicator for the input mode you want is displayed in the title bar.
To switch between uppercase and lowercase text,
do a short press on the Hash # key.
z Tip: To set predictive text input on or off when
writing text, press the Hash # key twice in quick succession.

Entering text in Multitap mode

When you are in Multitap mode (sometimes called multipress mode), you enter a letter by pressing the number key on which the letter is printed.

The Basics
!
z Note: Most keys have extra characters as well as
those printed on the key.
Press the key repeatedly until the required character is displayed. The letter entered most recently is underlined until you have completed the key presses for the letter and moved on to the next one.
For example:
To enter the letter “i” press 444.
To enter the word “maria,” press 6, 2,
777, 444, 2.
If a word you are entering contains two consecutive letters which are located on the same key, pause after entering the first letter and wait until the underline disappears before entering the next letter.
For example:
To enter the word “anna,” press 2, 66
pause until the underline disappears, press
66 again and then press 2.
z Tip: You can avoid this wait by pressing the right
] joypad key after entering the first character.
To enter punctuation in Multitap mode
Press 1 repeatedly to cycle through common
punctuation, or
Press the Asterisk key * to display a list of
special characters. Select the symbol you want using the joypad and press Select A or OK g.

Entering text in T9 mode

To save time when you are writing a message you can use Tegic T9 predictive text entry. This is a built­in dictionary feature which guesses words by the sequence of letters you are typing.
If you use T9, you only have to press each key once. The letters change as you type, so it is important that you ignore what is displayed on the screen until you have finished typing completely.
For example, to enter the word "maria" you can spell out the word with just five key presses, 6 2 7 4 2.
T9 Text input recognises that the most commonly used word matching that numeric sequence is "maria".
If the word which you are typing shares the same sequence of keys with another word, the wrong word may be displayed, but you can still select the correct word:
Press the Asterisk key * repeatedly to display all
matches one at a time, or
Press the Edit key (insert symbol) and select Dictionary then Matches from the pop-up menus,
to display all the matches in a scrollable list.
Press Select A to confirm your choice and insert a space.
If a
? character appears after a word that you have

typed, it means that it is not in the phone’s dictionary. You can add a word to the dictionary by
