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. Do not touch or hold the

antenna area unnecessarily when placing or receiving a phone call. 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.

7.2 Working With Company E-mails

Your device gives you instant access to your company e-mails and lets

you manage your messages easier. Direct Push, Fetch Mail, Remote e-mail

search, and e-mail flags are just some of the tools you can use to manage

your e-mails.

Note Some messaging features depend on the Microsoft Exchange Server version

used in your company. Check with your network administrator for the

availability of these features.

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

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.

Tip You can also tap Start > Messaging > Outlook E-mail.

2. Open an e-mail message.
