Closing Applications

You can have several applications open at once, so you don’t need to exit an application to
open another one. In most cases, applications close automatically when available memory is
low, but you can also close applications manually.

1.

Press and hold OK

to

open

Task Manager.

2.

Do either of the following:

Select the application you want to close and press End Task

(left softkey).

Press Menu

(right softkey) and select End All Tasks to close all your

applications.

Tip

With the

Start

menu open, you can press the letter underlined in the

application’s name to open the application. For example, press

H

to open

Help

. You can also use the

5-way

to select the shortcut icons at the top of

the

Start

menu when you want to open recently used applications.

In

Programs

, press a letter to jump to the first application that begins with

that letter. For example, press

C

to jump to

Calculator

. Press

C

again to

jump to

Camera

, and so on.

Note

If you press

OK

to leave an application, the current application continues to

run in the background. Manually closing applications helps conserve battery
power and frees up memory.
