all local codes and ordinances.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR POWER SUPPLY UNIT
• Use the correct external power source
A product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the electrical ratings
label. If you are not sure of the type of power source required, consult your authorized service provider
or local power company. For a product that operates from battery power or other sources, refer to the
operating instructions that are included with the product.
• Handle battery packs carefully
This product contains a Li-ion battery. There is a risk of fire and burns if the battery pack is handled
improperly. Do not attempt to open or service the battery pack. Do not disassemble, crush, puncture,
short external contacts or circuits, dispose of in fire or water, or expose a battery pack to temperatures
higher than 60˚C (140˚F).
 ARNING: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. To reduce risk of fire or burns, do not
disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, expose to temperature above  60° C (140° F), or
dispose of in fire or water. Replace only with specified batteries. Recycle or dispose of used batteries
according to the local regulations or reference guide supplied with your product.
• Take extra precautions
• Keep the battery or device dry and away from water or any liquid as it may cause a short circuit.
• Keep metal objects away so they don’t come in contact with the battery or its connectors as it may
lead to short circuit during operation.
• Do not use a battery that appears damaged, deformed, or discolored, or the one that has any rust
on its casing, overheats, or emits a foul odor.
• Always keep the battery out of the reach of babies and small children, to avoid swallowing of the
battery. Consult the doctor immediately if the battery is swallowed.
• If the battery leaks:
• Do not allow the leaking fluid to come in contact with skin or clothing. If already in contact,
flush the affected area immediately with clean water and seek medical advice.
• Do not allow the leaking fluid to come in contact with eyes. If already in contact, DO NOT rub;
rinse with clean water immediately and seek medical advice.
• Take extra precautions to keep a leaking battery away from fire as there is a danger of ignition
or explosion.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR DIRECT SUNLIGHT
Keep this product away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures. Do not leave the product or
its battery inside a vehicle or in places where the temperature may exceed 60°C (140°F), such as on a car
dashboard, window sill, or behind a glass that is exposed to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for
extended periods of time. This may damage the product, overheat the battery, or pose a risk to the vehicle.
PREVENTION OF HEARING LOSS
CAUTION: Permanent hearing loss may occur if earphones or headphones are used at high volume for prolonged periods
of time.
SAFETY IN AIRCRAFT
Due to the possible interference caused by this product to an aircraft’s navigation system and its
communications network, using this device’s phone function on board an airplane is against the law in most
countries. If you want to use this device when on board an aircraft, remember to turn off your phone by
switching to Airplane Mode.

ENVIRONMENT RESTRICTIONS
Do not use this product in gas stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in
progress, or in potentially explosive atmospheres such as fuelling areas, fuel storehouses, below deck
on boats, chemical plants, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Please be aware that sparks in such areas could
cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
When in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere or where flammable materials exist, the product
should be turned off and the user should obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause
an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Users are advised not to use the equipment at
refueling points such as service or gas stations, and are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the
use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress. Areas
with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. These include fueling areas,
below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals
or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
ROAD SAFETY
Vehicle drivers in motion are not permitted to use telephony services with handheld devices, except in the
case of emergency. In some countries, using hands-free devices as an alternative is allowed.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE
• Avoid using your phone near metal structures (for example, the steel frame of a building).
• Avoid using your phone near strong electromagnetic sources, such as microwave ovens, sound
speakers, TV and radio.
• Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories that do not contain any metal.
• Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate your local RF exposure guidelines
and should be avoided.
INTERFERENCE WITH MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FUNCTIONS
This product may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use of this device is forbidden in most
hospitals and medical clinics.
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if they
are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
HEARING AIDS
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may
want to consult your service provider, or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.
NONIONIZING RADIATION
Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be operated in its normal-use position to ensure
the radiative performance and safety of the interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment,
users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is
recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation
of the equipment.
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and
damage the phone, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well as
result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your country.

To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF energy is within the guidelines
set forth in the relevant standards, always use your device only in its normal-use position. Contact with the
antenna area may impair call quality and cause your device to operate at a higher power level than needed.
Avoiding contact with the antenna area when the phone is IN USE optimizes the antenna performance and
the battery life.
Antenna location
General Precautions

1.6 Navigating Your Device
There are different ways you can navigate and interact with the interface of your device.
Finger-touch control
A quick and easy way to interact with the home screen and the whole interface of your device is by touch.
Basically, the following are the types of actions, called finger gestures, you would do when interacting with
your device:
Touch or tap
When selecting items on the screen, such as the Home screen tabs, Start menu, programs and settings icons,
and large on-screen buttons, simply touch them with your finger. Apply some pressure with your finger pad
when touching an item on the screen.
Tapping means to touch lightly and quickly with your finger pad or fingertip. On screens that display smallersize items, you can more accurately select an item by tapping it with your fingertip.
Swipe
To swipe means to drag your finger vertically or horizontally across the screen. The following are some
instances when you would use swiping:
• Flipping on the Home screen
Swipe your finger vertically to flip through favorite contacts, messages, music albums, photos, and
more. For more information, see “Using the TouchFLO 3D Home Screen” in Chapter 3.
• Scrolling
When browsing the contacts list, web pages, documents, and certain selection lists on the Home screen
(such as the All Programs list), slowly swipe your finger vertically across the screen to scroll. This allows
you to scroll by page and to view the content or available selections as you scroll.
The direction of swiping resembles the way you move a printed document as you are reading it. For
detailed instructions, see “Finger scrolling” in Chapter 3.
Getting Started 21
Slide
Sliding on the touch screen also involves dragging with your finger, but you need to 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.
The following are some instances when you would use sliding:
• Switching between Home screen tabs
Slide your finger left and right to switch between the Home screen tabs. For more information, see
“Using the TouchFLO 3D Home screen“ in Chapter 3.
• Advancing playback
In players that have a progress bar, such as the Home screen’s Music tab and Windows Media® Player
Mobile, slide your finger horizontally on their progress bar to advance forward or move backward in the
music or video you are playing.
For more information about the Home screen’s Music tab, see “Music” in Chapter 3.
For more information about Windows Media® Player Mobile, see “Using Windows Media® Player Mobile” in
Chapter 11.
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 list. See “Finger scrolling”
in Chapter 3 for details.
Finger zooming and panning
In programs such as Album and Opera Mobile, you can use finger gestures when zooming and panning. See
Chapter 3, 8 and 11 for details.
Stylus
You can use the stylus to navigate and interact with the touch
screen. To use the stylus, pull it out from the stylus compartment
at the bottom of the right panel of your device. If the backlight
is off, removing the stylus automatically turns the backlight back
on.
The stylus is magnetic and sticks to the side when held close
to the device. This prevents you from accidentally losing or
misplacing the stylus.
Basically, you tap with the stylus to open programs and select items on the screen, and you tap and hold on
the screen to open a shortcut menu. You can also use the stylus the same way as what you do with finger
gestures, such as swiping, sliding and flicking on the screen.
Navigation Control
On the home screen and in many programs on your device, you can use the Navigation Control for directional
control. Press the directional arrows to navigate up, down, left, and right on the screen. When an item has
been selected on the screen, press the ENTER button (the center button) to confirm your selection.
The Navigation Control is also touch sensitive and can be used for zooming. Slide your finger clockwise
around the Navigation Control to zoom in, counterclockwise to zoom out.
Sliding your finger clockwise

22 Getting Started
The following programs allow you to use the Navigation Control for zooming:
• Album
• Opera Mobile
• Camera
• Word Mobile and Excel Mobile
Tip
If you purchase and install GPS navigation software on your device, you can also use the Navigation Control for
zooming in the GPS software.
On the Home screen’s Music tab, you can advance forward in the music you are playing by sliding clockwise
around the Navigation Control. To move backward in the music, slide counterclockwise. See “Music” in Chapter
3 for details.

View and reply to messages
To download a complete e-mail
By default, each e-mail received in the inbox on your device contains only the first few kilobytes of the
message. When you open an e-mail, it displays only the headers and part of the message. You must download
the whole e-mail to view the complete content.
To download a complete e-mail message, open the e-mail and then do one of the following:
• Finger-scroll to the end of the message, and tap Get entire message and any attachments (POP3 email account) or tap Get the rest of this message (IMAP4 and Outlook e-mail accounts).
• Tap Menu > Download Message.
Notes •	The Fetch Mail feature, which is available for POP3 and IMAP4 Internet e-mail accounts, downloads an entire
e-mail without the need for you to perform a full synchronization. This limits the download to just the e-mail
message that you want and helps save data cost. Fetch Mail is also available for Outlook E-mail. See “Instant
download through Fetch Mail” in Chapter 7 for details.
•	Download may take some time, depending on the speed of your Internet connection, size of the whole
e-mail, and whether file attachments are automatically downloaded.
To download file attachments
• POP3 e-mail account: File attachments of a POP3 Internet e-mail account are automatically
downloaded when you download a complete e-mail.
• IMAP4 and Outlook e-mail accounts: File attachments appear below the subject of an e-mail
message. Tapping an attachment opens the attachment if it has been fully downloaded or marks it for
download the next time you send and receive e-mail.
You can set automatic download of file attachments. See “Customize e-mail settings” in this chapter for
details.

Automatic synchronization through Direct Push
Direct Push technology (push e-mail feature) enables you to receive new e-mails on your device as soon as they
arrive in your Inbox on the Exchange Server. Items such as contacts, calendar and tasks are also immediately
updated onto your device when these items have been changed or new entries have been added on the
Exchange Server. To make Direct Push work, you need to have a Wi-Fi or data connection on your device.
You need to perform a full synchronization between your device and the Exchange Server first before Direct
Push can be enabled.
Requirement	The Direct Push feature works for your device only if your company is using Microsoft Exchange
Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2) with Exchange ActiveSync or higher version.
You can turn on Direct Push in the Comm Manager or ActiveSync.
To turn on Direct Push in Comm Manager
1. To open the Comm Manager, slide to the Settings tab on the TouchFLO 3D Home screen and then
touch Communications.
2. On the Comm Manager screen, touch Microsoft Direct Push.
To turn on Direct Push in ActiveSync
1. Tap Start > Programs > ActiveSync and then tap Menu > Schedule.
2. Select As items arrive in the Peak times and Off-peak times boxes.
Note When Direct Push is off, you need to manually retrieve your e-mails.
Scheduled synchronization
If you do not want to use Direct Push, you can set a regular schedule for synchronizing Outlook e-mail and
information.
1. In ActiveSync on your device, tap Menu > Schedule.
2. Select a shorter time interval in the Peak times box for you to be able to receive e-mails more
frequently. (Peak times usually refer to your working hours when e-mail volume is high).
3. Select a longer interval in the Off-peak times box.
Tip
To set the days and hours that make up your peak and off-peak times, tap the peak times link at the bottom of the
screen.
Instant download through Fetch Mail
The Fetch Mail feature downloads an entire e-mail immediately without the need for you to perform a full
Send/Receive action. This limits the download to just the e-mail message that you want and helps save data
cost.
Requirement	Fetch Mail works for your device only if your company is using Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or
higher.
1. On the TouchFLO 3D Home screen, slide to the Mail tab, select your Outlook account, and then tap
Inbox.
2. Open an e-mail message.
3. By default, only the first few words of the message is shown. To download the whole e-mail, fingerscroll to the end of the message, then tap Get the rest of this message.
4. Wait for the remainder of the message body to download.

8.1 Ways of Connecting to the Internet
Your device’s networking capabilities allow you to access the Internet or your corporate network at work
through one of the following connections:
• Wi-Fi
• Dial-up
Note You can also add and set up the following connections:
• VPN: A VPN connection is used to access your corporate network by using an existing Internet connection.
•	Proxy: A Proxy connection is used to access the Internet using an existing connection to your corporate or WAP
network.
Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi provides wireless Internet access over distances of up to 300 feet (100 meters).
To use Wi-Fi on your device, you need access to a wireless access point or “hotspot”.
Note The availability and range of your device’s Wi-Fi signal depends on the number, infrastructure, and other objects
through which the signal passes:
To turn Wi-Fi on and off
1. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab.
2. On the Settings screen, tap Communications > Wi-Fi to enable/disable the wireless function.
When enabled, the On indicator is activated and available wireless networks will be detected.
To connect to a wireless network
After Wi-Fi is turned on, your device scans for available wireless networks in your area.
1. The network names of the detected wireless networks are displayed on a
pop-up message window. Tap the desired wireless network, then tap OK.
Note
When you select an open (unsecured) network, you will be 		
automatically connected to the network after tapping OK.
You do not need to do steps 2 and 3.
2. On the next pop-up message window, do one of the following:
• Tap The Internet if the wireless network connects your device to the
Internet.
• Tap Work if the wireless network connects your device to a private
network.
3. Enter the key and then tap Connect.
Next time you use your device to detect wireless networks, you will not see the pop-up message windows
again, and you will not be prompted to enter the network key of the previously accessed wireless network
(unless you perform a hard reset which will erase custom settings on your device).
Note Wi-Fi networks are self-discoverable, which means no additional steps are required for your device to connect to a
Wi-Fi network. It may be necessary to provide a username and password for certain closed wireless networks.
Internet 77
To check wireless network status
You can check the current wireless connection status from any of the following screens of your device:

Wi-Fi is turned on, your device scans for available wireless networks and the wireless signal icon
appears on the title bar. The arrows in this icon move back and forth while your device is scanning for a
wireless network signal. Once your device successfully connects to a wireless network, the arrows stop
moving.
• Wireless LAN screen. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab
and then tap Menu > Wireless Networks. On the Main tab, you will
see the wireless network that your device is currently connected to.

to the Settings tab and then tap All Settings. In the Connections
tab, tap Wi-Fi. This screen displays the wireless networks currently
available. To connect to a wireless network in the list, tap and hold on
the desired network, then tap Connect. Tap a wireless network in the
list to view or change its connection settings. You can also add new
wireless networks, if available, by tapping Add New.
To save battery power while connected to a wireless network

Your device’s networking capability allows you to access the Internet through the dial-up connection. Settings
for connecting to your service provider’s 1xRTT/EVDO network are already preconfigured on your device, and
your device is ready to connect to the Internet. Please do not change these settings as this may cause your
data connection to stop working.
If you need to use another dial-up connection from an ISP (Internet Service Provider), you can manually
add it to your device. To establish a dial-up connection on your device, you need the same settings that you
normally use when you dial up from your computer. This includes the ISP server phone number, your user
name and password.
