Introduction

Overview

This user guide is intended to provide you with full details on how to use the prominent features on your Vertu Constellation.

When you set up the phone, it is recommended that you complete registration, because you can then activate all Vertu's services, including the additional home screens Vertu Select and City Brief.

The pictures used in this user guide are provided for illustration purposes only. They may differ from those on your actual version of the Vertu Constellation.

Tip: To access Vertu services, select > Vertu.

Help and support

To find out more about using your Vertu Constellation:

• Contact Vertu Technical Support using the Concierge key and select either Call Technical Support or Email Technical Support.

• Refer to the user guide on your phone or to the full reference manual on the Vertu website.

• Use the setup wizards available on your Vertu Constellation that can help you with registration and mail account creation. Select > Vertu > Registration.

Introduction 7

Care of your phone

If your Vertu Constellation, or any of the accessories, are not working as they should, contact your Vertu dealer.

General care

• Always use your Vertu Constellation in the documented manner. Incorrect usage may affect performance.

• Do not attempt to open or disassemble your Vertu Constellation. The only part you ever need to open is the SIM door. Your Vertu Constellation should only be serviced by Vertu authorised personnel.

• Do not mishandle or abuse your Vertu Constellation.

• Use only Vertu approved accessories.

• The supplied chargers are only intended for use with your Vertu Constellation. Do not use them with any other device, as this could result in permanent damage to the phone, battery, or charger.

• Keep your Vertu Constellation and all parts and accessories out of the reach of small children and pets.

• Do not allow your Vertu Constellation or accessories to come into contact with liquids or moisture, or dust and dirt.

• Do not expose your Vertu Constellation to extreme temperatures, as these may cause the battery to stop working temporarily. Performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.

• Do not apply paint or other similar substances to your Vertu Constellation.

• Only use a soft, clean cloth to clean your Vertu Constellation. Do not use chemicals, detergents, abrasive substances, or any liquids. Use a cotton swab to clean the camera lens.

Interference

• If interference affects the performance of your Vertu Constellation, move away from the source of the interference.

Battery

• Your Vertu Constellation has an internal, non-removable battery. Do not attempt to take it out of the phone. You should not leave it connected to the charger and power source for longer than is necessary.

Materials

Your Vertu Constellation has been crafted from some of the finest materials, and care needs to be taken to keep it in good condition.

• Do not drop, knock, or rub your Vertu Constellation on or against hard surfaces.

8Introduction

• Ceramics and sapphire are very hard materials, but are also brittle and can be scratched by harder materials or objects. They can also be damaged if dropped. Therefore, avoid contact with hard materials such as diamond jewellery, nail files, abrasives, and mineral crystals.

• All leather can be damaged and should be treated with care. Therefore, avoid exposing your Vertu Constellation to extreme temperatures or water and high humidity, and avoid contact with oily substances, make-up, and solvents.

• Vertu metals are finished to a high standard, and care needs to be taken to maintain their appearance. Therefore, you should avoid contact with sharp objects, metal polishes, and chemicals such as solvents, alkaline and acid solutions, cola-based drinks, and salt water. If contact occurs, wipe the surface with a clean, soft cloth as soon as possible.

About registration

Vertu aims to provide you with the best possible user experience. To enable us to do this, you are strongly advised to register your Vertu Constellation and activate the services when prompted. Once you do this, you get:

• Full access to Vertu’s range of personalised services, including Concierge and Vertu Technical Support.

• Additional home screens, including Vertu Select, that offers content individually tailored to your passions, and City Brief, that changes as you travel.

• An @vertu.me mail account that you can access at mail.vertu.me.

• Access to Vertu Fortress.

Tip: To view the personalised services to which you have access following

registration, select > Vertu. You also then have access to options that allow you to rerun the registration application and the setup wizard at any time.

Register your Vertu phone

Normally your Vertu Constellation is registered during the setup process, but you can also register later using any of the following methods:

• Select > Vertu and Registration.

• Select Call Concierge using the dedicated key.

• Register at www.vertu.me.

• Select any of the Vertu services on the phone.

Initial setup

1 Before you switch on your Vertu Constellation, make sure that you have inserted a

valid, active SIM card, and that you are in a location with cellular data connectivity. 2 Start up your Vertu Constellation, and launch the setup wizard. 3 The setup wizard takes you through the registration process. Once you have

entered your details, opted to activate the services, and accepted the terms and

conditions, the Vertu services are immediately available.

If you declined to activate the Vertu services, you can still use the phone. To gain

access to the services later on, go through the registration process again and opt

to activate the services.

If you are already a registered customer, enter your username and password. 4 You are automatically taken through mail setup following the registration process.

Get started 17

Mail setup

The final part of setup allows you to create mailboxes from a list of mail service providers, including @vertu.me if you have registered.

Select a mail service provider, and enter the requested details. The mailbox is automatically displayed in a Mail widget on the home screen provided space is available. This widget gives you quick access to the most recent mails. To go to the inbox, select the title bar.

For each subsequent mailbox that you create, you need to add a Mail widget for it on the home screen of your choice. Note that you can choose either a single line Mail widget or a three line Mail widget.

Tip: To add a new mailbox into an existing three line Mail widget, select on

the top right of the widget. Select Create new mailbox, and follow the displayed instructions. The new mailbox replaces the previous mailbox inside the widget.

Your Vertu Constellation has full compatibility with Microsoft Exchange Server, allowing you to configure one of your mail accounts as a Mail for Exchange mailbox. This gives you mobile access to the mail, calendar, contacts, and tasks on the account, with the option to keep content fully synchronised.

You are asked during mail setup whether you want your corporate account to be used as your Mail for Exchange mailbox. If you decide against this, a list of alternative mail providers is displayed. If you select Vertu.Me from this list, your @vertu.me account is used as your Mail for Exchange mailbox. Alternatively, you can select Other, enter the mail address and password, and, if the associated provider is compatible, select Exchange ActiveSync instead of POP/IMAP.

You can add further mailboxes as required. For each subsequent mailbox that you create, you need to add a mail widget to the customisable home screen of your choice.

About the default home screen

The default home screen acts as a gateway to the functions on your Vertu Constellation:

• The other home screens. There are two home screens on one side of the default home screen that are dedicated to Vertu Select and City Brief. On the other side, there is one home screen that provides access to the initial mailbox and a row of shortcuts to Vertu's specially curated applications; and another home screen that provides access to the application quick launch widget. These two home screens are customisable so that you can add the applications and shortcuts that you use the most.

You can also add a sixth, blank, home screen that is fully customisable. When you are travelling, and wish to avoid roaming charges, to deactivate Vertu

Select or City Brief, select

• The three most commonly used profiles – Silent, Offline and General. To change the profile, select the profile icon in the top left of the default view, and select a different profile.

About Mail

Select > Mail.

Your Vertu Constellation allows you to configure one of your mail accounts as a Mail for Exchange mailbox. This gives you mobile access to the mail, calendar, contacts, and tasks on the account, with the option to keep content fully synchronised.

You are asked during mail setup whether you want your corporate account to be used as your Mail for Exchange mailbox. If you decline, a list of alternative mail providers is displayed. If you select Vertu.Me from this list, your @vertu.me account is used as your Mail for Exchange mailbox.

Alternatively, you can select Other, enter the mail address and password, and, if the associated provider is compatible, select Exchange ActiveSync instead of POP/ IMAP.

Once security is applied to the Mail for Exchange mailbox, you are prompted to enter a lock code, which you should memorise.

Once you have created a mailbox at initial setup for the account of your choice, the unread mail is automatically displayed in a Vertu mail widget on the home screen to the right of the default home screen. Tap the title bar of the widget to go to the inbox.

You can add further mailboxes as required. For each subsequent mailbox that you create, you need to add a Vertu mail widget to the customisable home screen of your choice. Select either a one line or three line mail widget.

Tip: Mail contains interactive elements. For example, select and hold a mail to view a pop-up menu allowing you to delete or mark the mail, or move it to another folder.

Set up a mailbox

You can have several active mailboxes on your Vertu Constellation, from a variety of mail service providers. However, you can only have one Mail for Exchange mailbox.
