With the phone switched off, hold your phone securely with the
front facing down.
Starting from the small opening at the bottom of the phone, lift
the back cover and remove it completely.

Please handle the back cover with care since your phone’s antennas are placed
underneath it. Avoid twisting or bending the back cover.
To get the best signal for calls, data connection, or GPS navigation, be sure to
secure the back cover tightly to the phone.
Align the back cover onto the phone’s top panel.

6 Basics
Battery
Your phone uses a rechargeable battery. Please use only original
batteries and accessories that came with your phone or replacements
that we recommend.
How long the battery can last before it needs recharging depends on
how you use your phone. Among these are the phone features and
accessories you use (for example, leaving your Bluetooth connection
always on uses more power). Long phone calls and frequent web
browsing use up much battery. Also, consider your location: poor
signal strength from your mobile network and extreme temperature
make the battery work harder.
Removing the battery
When you take your phone out from the box, make sure to peel off the thin film
of the battery that’s inside your phone. Pull the flap of the film to release the
battery.
1. Take the back cover off. See “Removing the back cover”.
2. Lift the battery from the groove at the top of the battery
compartment.

Basics 7
Inserting the battery
Insert the battery (with its exposed copper contacts first) into the
battery compartment. Then gently push the battery into place.
Charging the battery
The battery is partially charged when shipped. Before you turn on
and start using your phone, it is recommended that you charge
the battery. Some batteries perform best after several full charge/
discharge cycles.
Only the power adapter and USB sync cable provided with your phone
must be used to charge the battery.
Do not remove the battery from the phone while you are charging it using
the power or car adapter.
1. From the adapters that are included in your device package,
select and insert the appropriate adapter to the AC charger.
You can check the wall socket to know which adapter to use.
2. Connect one end of the USB cable to the AC charger.

8 Basics
3. Connect the smaller end of the USB cable to the USB Connector
on the left side of your wireless device.
4. Plug in the AC charger to a wall socket to start charging the
battery.
As the battery is being charged, the notification LED shows a solid
orange light. The light turns to solid green when the phone is fully
charged.
When you charge the battery while the phone is on, the charging
battery icon is displayed in your phone’s status bar. After the
battery has been fully charged, the charging battery icon turns to a
full battery icon .
As a safety precaution, the battery stops charging when it overheats.

10 Basics
Swipe or slide To swipe or slide means to quickly drag your finger
vertically or horizontally across the screen.
Drag Press and hold your finger with some pressure before you
start to drag. While dragging, do not release your finger
until you have reached the target position.
Flick Flicking the screen is similar to swiping, except that you
need to swipe your finger in light, quicker strokes. This
finger gesture is always in a vertical direction, such as when
flicking the contacts or message list.
Rotate For most screens, you can automatically change the
screen orientation from portrait to landscape by turning
the phone sideways. When entering text, you can turn the
phone sideways to bring up a bigger keyboard.

Getting started
Setting up your phone for the first time
When you switch on your phone for the first time, you’ll be asked to
set up your phone. You can choose your language, how you want to
connect to the Internet, and whether you want your current location
to be automatically detected.
If you still have personal contacts and calendar events stored on your
old phone, you can easily transfer them to your new phone through
Bluetooth as well.
Just follow the onscreen instructions and you’ll be up and running
with your phone in no time.
Some features that need to connect to the Internet such as location-based
services and auto-sync of your online accounts may incur extra data fees from
your mobile operator. Don’t worry. You can enable or disable them in your
phone’s settings as you go along later on. To find out how, see the Settings
chapter.

Update and reset
Updating the phone software
From time to time, software updates for your phone may be available.
Your phone can check and then notify you if there’s a new update. You
can then download and install the software update using your phone’s
Wi-Fi or data connection.
Checking and downloading phone software updates may incur additional
data transfer fees from your mobile operator.
Make sure your phone has a microSD card inserted. The update will be
downloaded to the microSD card.
Depending on the type of update, the update may erase all your
personal data and customized settings, and also remove any
applications you’ve installed. Make sure that you’ve backed up the
information and files you want to keep.
When there is an update available, the Install system software
update dialog box will appear onscreen. Select Install now and
then tap OK.
If you’re in the middle of a call and there’s an update available,
you’ll receive an update notification. After you end the call, slide
open the Notifications panel (see “Opening the Notifications
panel” in the Getting started chapter). Then tap the update
notification to download and install the software update.
Wait for the update process to finish. When the update is finished, the
phone will automatically reset.

Restarting or factory resetting your phone
Restarting your phone (soft reset)
If your phone is running slower than normal, an application is not
performing properly, or your phone becomes unresponsive, try
restarting your phone and see if that helps solve the problem.
If the display is off, press the POWER/LOCK button to turn it
back on.
Unlock your phone if the Lock screen is displayed. See
“Unlocking the screen” in the Getting started chapter.
Press and hold the POWER/LOCK button, and then tap Restart.
When asked to confirm, tap Restart.
If you can’t restart the phone following the above steps, remove the
battery, wait for a few seconds, reinsert the battery, and then turn the
phone on.
Performing a factory reset (hard reset)
If you’re passing your phone on to someone else or your phone has a
persistent problem that cannot be solved, you can do a factory reset
(also called a hard reset). This returns your phone to the state it was in
before the first time you turned it on.

still perform a factory reset by using the buttons on the phone.

battery.

press the POWER/LOCK button.
Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and
