Before You Start
Safety Instructions
WARNING! To reduce the possibility of electric shock, do not
expose your phone to high humidity areas, such as the
bathroom, swimming pool, etc.
Always store your phone away from heat. Never store your
phone in settings that may expose it to temperatures less than
32°F or greater than 104°F, such as outside during extreme
weather conditions or in your car on a hot day. Exposure to
excessive cold or heat will result in malfunction, damage
and/or catastrophic failure.
Be careful when using your phone near other electronic
devices. RF emissions from your mobile phone may affect
nearby in adequately shielded electronic equipment. You
should consult with manufacturers of any personal medical
devices such as pacemakers and hearing aides to determine if
they are susceptible to interference from your mobile phone.

exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.79
inches(2cm) must be maintained between the user's body
and the back of the phone. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and
similar accessories containing metallic components should not

Using RSS reader
Saving a page
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a
family of web feed formats used to
publish frequently updated content
such as blog entries, news headlines
or podcasts. An RSS document,
which is called a feed, web feed, or
channel, contains either a summary
of content from an associated web
site or the full text. RSS makes it
possible for people to keep up
with their favourite web sites in an
automated manner that is easier
than checking them manually.
The user subscribes to a feed by
entering the feed’s link into the
reader or by clicking an RSS icon
in a browser that initiates the
subscription process. The reader
checks the user’s subscribed
feeds regularly for new content,
downloading any updates that it
finds.
