Protecting your phone with encryption
You can encrypt all the data on your phone: your accounts, application data, music
and other media, downloaded information, and so on. If you do, you must draw an
unlock pattern, or enter a numeric PIN or a password each time you power on your
phone.
WARNING!
Encryption is irreversible. The only way to revert to an unencrypted phone is to
perform a factory data reset, which erases all your data.
Encryption provides additional protection in case your phone is stolen, and may be
28
required or recommended in some organizations. Consult your system administrator
before turning it on. In many cases the pattern, PIN or password you set for
encryption is controlled by the system administrator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
Set a screen lock pattern, PIN or password.
Charge the battery.
Keep the phone connected to the charger.
Schedule an hour or more for the encryption process: you must not interrupt it
or you will lose some or all of your data.
When you're ready to turn on encryption:
1. Touch the Home key > > Settings > Security > Encrypt phone.
2. Read the information about encryption carefully.
The ENCRYPT PHONE button is dimmed if your battery is not charged or your
phone's not plugged in.
If you change your mind about encrypting your phone, touch the Back key.
WARNING!
If you interrupt the encryption process, you will lose data.
3. Touch ENCRYPT PHONE.
4. Draw your screen lock pattern or enter your PIN or password, and touch NEXT.
5. Touch ENCRYPT PHONE again.
The encryption process starts. Encryption can take an hour or more, during which
time your phone may restart several times.
When encryption is completed, you're prompted to draw the unlock pattern, or enter
your PIN or password.
Subsequently you must draw your unlock pattern, or enter your PIN or password
each time you power on your phone in order to decrypt it.
29

Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems while using the phone, or if it performs abnormally, you
can refer to the chart below. If your particular problem cannot be resolved using
the information in the chart, contact the dealer where you purchased the phone.
Problem Possible causes Possible solution
Poor reception
The network signal is too weak
at your current location, for
example, in a basement or near
a tall building, because wireless
transmissions cannot effectively
reach it.
Move to a location where the
network signal can be properly
received.
The network is busy at the
current time (for example,
during peak times, there may
be too much network traffic to
handle additional calls).
Avoid using the phone at such
times, or try again after waiting
a short time.
You are too far away from a
base station for your service
provider.
You can request a service area
map from your service provider.
Echo or noise
The network link quality is poor
on the part of your service
provider.
End the call and dial again. You
may be switched to a
better-quality network link or
phone line.
125
Problem Possible causes Possible solution
The local telephone line quality
is poor.
End the call and dial again. You
may be switched to a
better-quality network link or
phone line.
Unable to select
certain features
Your service provider does not
support these features, or you
have not applied for services
that provide these features.
Contact your service provider.
Cannot charge
the battery
The battery or battery charger
is damaged. Contact the dealer.
The phone’s temperature is
below 0 °C or higher than 45 °C.
Adjust the battery charging
environment to avoid extremes
of temperature.
The contact between the
battery and charger is poor.
Check all connectors to ensure
that all connections have been
properly made.
Shortened
standby time
The standby time is related to
your service provider system
configuration. The same phone
used with different service
providers’ systems will not
provide exactly the same length
of standby time.
If you are located in an area
where signaling is weak,
temporarily power off the
phone.
126
Problem Possible causes Possible solution
The battery is depleted. In high
temperature environments,
battery life will be shortened.
Contact the dealer to change a
new battery.
If you are not able to connect to
the network, the phone will
continue to send out signals as
it attempts to locate a base
station. Doing so consumes
battery power and will
consequently shorten standby
time.
Change your location to one
where the network is
accessible, or temporarily turn
off your phone.
Cannot turn your
phone on
Battery power has been
depleted. Recharge the phone’s battery.

be susceptible to blackouts or seizures (even if they have never had one before)
when exposed to flashing lights or light patterns such as when playing games or
watching videos. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts or have a family
history of such occurrences, please consult a physician. To reduce the risk of
blackouts or seizures, you can use your phone in a well-lit room and take frequent
breaks.
Repetitive strain injuries
To minimise the risk of Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) when texting or playing games
with your phone:
Do not grip the phone too tightly.
Press the buttons lightly.
Use the special features which are designed to minimise the times of pressing
buttons, such as Message Templates and Predictive Text.

Take frequent breaks to stretch and relax.
Emergency calls
This phone, like any other wireless phone, operates using radio signals, which
cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should not rely solely
on any wireless phone for emergency communications.
Loud noise
This phone is capable of producing loud noises, which may damage your hearing.
Turn down the volume before using headphones, Bluetooth headsets or other audio
devices.
Phone heat
Your phone may become warm during charging and normal use.
Electrical safety
Accessories
Use only approved accessories.
Do not connect with incompatible products or accessories.
Take care not to touch metallic objects, such as coins or key rings, or allow them to
contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.
Never puncture the surface of the battery with sharp objects.

Radio frequency interference
General statement on interference
Care must be taken when using your phone in close proximity to personal medical
devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturers to determine if the
operation of your phone may interfere with the operation of your medical devices.
138
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15 cm be
maintained between a mobile phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference
with the pacemaker. To achieve this, use the phone on the opposite ear to your
pacemaker and do not carry it in a breast pocket.
Hearing aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience interfering
noises when using wireless devices or when one is nearby.
The level of interference depends on the type of the hearing device and the distance
from the interference source. Increasing the separation between them may
reduce the interference. You may also consult your hearing aid manufacturer to
discuss alternatives.
Medical equipment
Switch off your wireless device when you are requested to do so in hospitals,
clinics or health care facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible
interference with sensitive medical equipment.
Aircraft
Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed to do so by airport or
airline staff.
Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on board the aircraft and
enable flight mode of your phone when boarding an aircraft.
139
Interference in vehicles
Please note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment,
some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles
unless a hands-free kit with an external antenna is included in the installation.
Explosive environments
Petrol stations and explosive atmosphere
In locations with potentially explosive atmosphere, obey all posted signs to turn off
wireless devices such as your phone or other radio equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmosphere include fueling areas, below decks 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.
Blasting caps and areas
Power off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a blasting area or in areas
where signs are posted to power off “two-way radios” or “electronic devices” to avoid
interfering with blasting operations.
