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 25.)

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.

WirelessOn/OffControl

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

1From the Jump screen, press MENU and select AirplaneMode>Turn WirelessOff.

2Your 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.

3To turn wireless back on, from the Jump screen, press MENU and select AirplaneMode>TurnWirelessOn.

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.
