Device Basics

Opening and Closing the Display

To open the display, press your left thumb on the lower-left corner of the display and gently push up in a clockwise direction. The display will spring smoothly into the open position.

Alternatively, use your right index finger to push down gently on the upperright corner of the display. The screen will spring into the open position.

The normal operating position of the device is horizontal, with the trackball on the right, as shown above.

To close the display, reverse the motion to pivot the display counterclockwise and snap it into the closed position.

Do not open or close the display in the wrong direction as this may damage your device. Stop if you feel any resistance; the display should spring smoothly into position. Protect the display from scratches by always using the carrying case to transport your device.

Volume Controls

There are two ways you can open the volume controls:

 Press MENU + DONE . Roll the trackball left/right to step through

your sound profiles. Left is louder, right is softer. (Read more in

“Sound

Profiles” on page

 Press the + or - volume buttons on the lower-left edge of your device.

Continue pressing the buttons to step through your sound profiles:

If you are on the phone, the volume control panel includes separate volume controls for the phone call. This control is focused by default; to change your Sound Profile, roll the trackball down to focus the Sound Profile pane, then roll the trackball left or right to select a profile.

Wireless On/Off Control

If you need to turn off your device’s GSM and GPRS wireless connectivity (for example, during aircraft takeoffs and landings), do the following:

1 From the Jump screen, press MENU and select Airplane Mode > Turn

Wireless Off

2 Your device is now offline. You should confirm offline status by looking

next to the radio tower icon in the title bar; it should read OFF.

3 To turn wireless back on, from the Jump screen, press MENU and

select Airplane Mode > Turn Wireless On.

Note that after you select the Turn Wireless On/Off menu item, it takes a few seconds for the radio to actually turn on or off. During that time, the menu item will appear dimmed and you will not be able to select it.
