End user notice
NOTE The Voice Command application is not available in all
languages. See Setting up voice commands .
Microsoft® Voice Command Version 1.5 for Windows Mobile®
IMPORTANT Do not become distracted from driving safely if
operating a motor vehicle while using Device Software.
Operating certain parts of this Device requires user attention.
Diverting attention away from the road while driving can possibly
cause an accident or other serious consequences. Even occasional,
short diversions of attention can be dangerous if your attention is
diverted away from your driving task at a critical time. Do not change
system settings or enter data non-verbally (using your hands) while
driving. Stop the vehicle in a safe and legal manner before attempting
these operations. This is important since while setting up or changing
some functions you might be required to distract your attention away
from the road and remove your hands from the wheel.
Microsoft makes no representations, warranties, or other
determinations that ANY use of the Software Product is legal, safe, or
in any manner recommended or intended while driving or otherwise
operating a motor vehicle.
General Operation
NOTE The Voice Command application is not available in all
languages. See Setting up voice commands .
Voice Command Control: Many of the functions of the Device
Software can be accomplished using only voice commands. Using
voice commands while driving allows you to initiate the command
with a button and then operate the Device mostly without removing
your hands from the wheel.
Prolonged Views of Screen: If you are driving, do not access any
function requiring a prolonged view of the screen. Pull over in a safe
and legal manner before attempting to access a function of the
system requiring prolonged attention. Even occasional short scans to
the screen may be hazardous if your attention has been diverted
away from your driving task at a critical time.
Volume Setting: Do not raise the volume excessively. Keep the
volume at a level where you can still hear outside traffic and
emergency signals while driving. Driving while unable to hear these
sounds could cause an accident.
Let Your Judgment Prevail: The Device Software is only an aid.
Make your driving decisions based on your observations of local
conditions and existing traffic regulations. The Device Software is not
a substitute for your personal judgment.
Use of Speech Recognition Functions: Speech recognition
software is inherently a statistical process which is subject to errors.
It is your responsibility to monitor the speech recognition functions
and address any errors.

Maximizing battery life
Battery life depends on how you use your
smartphone. You can maximize the life of
your battery by following a few easy
guidelines:
•Charge your smartphone whenever
you’re at your desk, or charge
it overnight each day. The battery in your
smartphone has a much longer useful
life if you charge it frequently instead of
waiting until it’s fully drained.
•If you spend a lot of time using the
camera, games, media players
(including listening to music with
wireless headphones using your
smartphone’s built-in Bluetooth®
wireless technology), or other
applications, keep an eye on the battery
icon and charge when necessary.
•If you are synchronizing email and other
information directly with your corporate
Exchange Server using Microsoft
Exchange ActiveSync®, set the
synchronization interval to not more
often than every 15 minutes during peak
times and every hour (or turned off
completely) during non-peak times (see
Setting the synchronization schedule).
•Turn off the Bluetooth feature when you
do not need to make a Bluetooth
connection (see Entering basic
Bluetooth settings).
•Turn the voice command feature off if
you have turned it on (it’s off by default;
see Setting up voice commands).

•As with any mobile phone, if you are in
an area with no wireless coverage, your
smartphone searches for a signal, which
consumes power. If you cannot move to
an area of better coverage, temporarily
turn off your phone (see Turning your
smartphone on/off).
•Turn down the screen brightness (see
Adjusting the brightness).
•Set your screen to turn off automatically
after a shorter period of inactivity (see
Optimizing power settings).
•Turn off the option to receive beamed
information (see Beaming a record).
•Keep your battery away from direct
sunlight and other sources of heat.

default. The highlight identifies which item
is affected by your next action. Use the
5-way to move the highlight from one item
to another before opening or selecting it.
The highlight can take one of two forms,
depending on what is highlighted:
•Border: This rectangular border
highlights items such as an onscreen
button (such as OK, Dismiss, or Hide), a
check box, an option, or a web link.
Scroll arrows

Using the action keys
The left and right action keys give you quick
access to tasks that you can do on the
current screen, so the action key items
vary from application to application and
from screen to screen. Look on the screen
directly above the action key to see the
action that it takes in the current context.
In some contexts, these keys may do
nothing at all. In most cases the right
action key opens the menu, and the
left action key activates a specific
command, such as New or Edit.
Remember that action key functions vary
from screen to screen, so be sure to check
the onscreen label before pressing the
action keys.

Synchronizing information
Synchronizing simply means that information that has been
entered or updated in one place—your smartphone, your
computer, or your corporate server—is automatically updated
in the other. There’s no need to enter information twice. Some
kinds of synchronization can happen on an automated
schedule, so you don’t even have to think about it.
After you get into the habit of synchronizing regularly, you’ll
know what a powerful tool synchronization is for transferring,
updating, and backing up large amounts of information on your
smartphone.
Benefits
•Quickly enter and update
information on your computer and
your smartphone
•Protect your information
•Send photos and videos to your
smartphone from your desktop
computer

CHAPTER
This chapter discusses using Microsoft
Exchange ActiveSync® and other methods
to synchronize your smartphone and your
computer.
Synchronization enables you to enter or
change information on your smartphone or
in Microsoft Office Outlook®. Your info is
then automatically updated in both places;
there’s no need to enter the info twice.
This is true whether you sync wirelessly
with your company’s Exchange Server
using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync (see
Setting up wireless synchronization) or
with your computer using ActiveSync
desktop software (see Setting up your
computer for synchronization).
By default, the info from the following
applications is synchronized for either
method of synchronization:
You can, however, customize sync settings
to suit your needs and sync only some of
these applications.
If you set up ActiveSync synchronization
with your computer, information in the
Favorites application is synchronized by
default as well. You can also change
settings to synchronize Word, Excel,
PowerPoint, and PDF files, as well as
pictures, music, videos, and other types of
files (see Changing which applications
sync). For synchronization of music and
videos, you also must have Windows
Media® Player 10 on your computer.
You can set up your smartphone to use any
combination of wireless sync, ActiveSync
synchronization, and Windows Media
Player sync.
DID
YOU
KNOW
?
When you sync Favorites, it
creates a folder in your computer’s web
browser called Mobile Favorites that backs up
any favorites you create in the browser on
your smartphone. You can add or remove
favorites directly to or from the folder.
TIP
If you don’t already have Windows Media
Player installed on your computer, you can
install it from the Windows Mobile Getting
Started Disc. Insert the CD into your
computer’s CD drive, select Add Programs,
and then select Windows Media Player.

CHAPTER
How do I
synchronize?
There are a number of ways to make
synchronization occur. You may be able to
synchronize wirelessly with an Exchange
Server, or you can install ActiveSync
desktop software on your computer to
synchronize in one of a number of
ways.You can, of course, choose to sync
both with an Exchange Server and with
ActiveSync desktop software to maximize
your sync options.
Synchronizing wirelessly with the server
You can set up your smartphone to
synchronize wirelessly with Microsoft
Exchange Server 2003 with Service Pack 2
using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync; see
Setting up wireless synchronization. If you
choose this method, synchronization takes
place automatically after setup; you do not
need to install the software from the
Windows Mobile Getting Started Disc,
which came with your smartphone.
NOTE We recommend that you install
ActiveSync desktop software from the CD
even if you synchronize wirelessly with the
server. You need ActiveSync to synchronize
pictures, videos, music files, and other info
directly with your computer.
Synchronizing with ActiveSync desktop
software
BEFORE YOU BEGIN Install the software
from the Windows Mobile Getting Started
Disc, which came with your smartphone.
You must install this software even if you
have already installed a previous version of
ActiveSync desktop software.
See Installing the desktop synchronization
software for instructions.
If you install ActiveSync desktop software
from the Windows Mobile Getting Started
Disc, you can choose to synchronize in any
of the following ways:
•By connecting your smartphone to your
computer using the sync cable; see
Synchronizing using the sync cable
•Wirelessly, using your smartphone’s
built-in Bluetooth® wireless technology;

Does your company use Microsoft Outlook
as its email solution? Does your company
also use Microsoft Exchange Server 2003
as its email server? If so, you may be able
to wirelessly synchronize the email and
other Outlook info on your smartphone and
the same info stored on the Exchange
Server using Microsoft Exchange
ActiveSync.
When the Exchange Server is upgraded to
Service Pack 2, you may be able to take
advantage of the additional features of

NOTE Even if you sync with an Exchange
Server, we recommend that you install
ActiveSync desktop software as well, to
take full advantage of your smartphone’s
capabilities.

TIP
Ask your system administrator if it is OK to
store your corporate email password on your
smartphone (for increased security, you may
need to enter your password each time you
access your email). If it is not OK, you must
synchronize manually (see Initiating a wireless
sync manually).
