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.
10
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.

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 use when interacting with your device:
Getting Started 37
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 smaller-size 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
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.
For detailed instructions, see “Finger scrolling” in Chapter 3.
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.
•
•
38 Getting Started
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 Home screen“ in Chapter 3.
Advancing playback
In Windows Media® Player Mobile, slide your finger horizontally on the
progress bar to advance forward or move backward in the music or video you
are playing. 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 top of the right panel of your
device. 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.

2.2 Making Calls
To make a call, you can either dial a number or select a contact you want to call.
Make a call from the Phone screen
The Phone’s Smart Dial feature makes it quick and easy for you to place a
call. When you start entering a phone number or contact name, Smart Dial
automatically searches and sorts the contact entries on the SIM card, in Contacts,
and the phone numbers in Call History (including incoming, outgoing, and missed
calls). You can then select the desired number or contact from the filtered list.
You can just enter the first letter of the name or number of a contact. Smart Dial will
search for contact phone numbers and the first character of a contact name as well
as from the character that appears after a space, dash, or underscore in a contact
name. For example, if you tap number “2” on the phone keypad, which is associated
with [a, b, and c] on the Phone keypad, contact names such as the following will
be considered matches: “Ben Miller”, “George Adams”, “John-Carter”, “Carter, Ellen”,
“Dixon, Allan”, “Thomas_Clark”, “JaneCampbell”.
If the matching list is long and you want to narrow down the search further, enter
another letter. Using the same example above, if you continue to tap “3” which is
associated with [d, e, f], the matching list will be narrowed down to the following
names: “Ben Miller”, “George Adams”, “Carter, Ellen”, “Dixon, Allan”.

6.5 E-mail Setup Wizard
Windows Mobile’s E-mail Setup wizard walks you through the process of setting
up your e-mail account. It has an Auto Setup feature which can automatically set
up your e-mail account based on the e-mail address and password that you enter,
if your e-mail provider settings are preconfigured on your device. If the settings
are not found on your device, Auto Setup then attempts to retrieve the settings
online for which you may be charged when your device connects to the Internet
and downloads them. If it cannot find the e-mail settings online, you need to enter
them manually.
Note For more information about setting up your company Outlook e-mail account, see
Chapter 7.

account from an Internet service provider (ISP) or other e-mail service provider, or a
web-based account such as Gmail, Yahoo! Mail Plus, or AOL. You can also add a work
account that you access using a VPN server connection as a POP3/IMAP4 account.
1. Add a new e-mail account. See “Add an e-mail account” for instructions.
2. Enter your E-mail address and the Password for your e-mail account and

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.

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