Chapter 2: Using your Smartphone
Turning on for the first time
To turn on your smartphone for the first time, press and hold the power button
until the screen turns on. You will then be asked to configure some settings
before you can use your smartphone.
Follow the onscreen instructions to complete setup.
Sign in to or create a Google account
If you have Internet access, your smartphone allows you to synchronize
information with a google account.
During the start-up process, you may create or sign in to your account, which
will be used to synchonise your contact list, email, calendar and other
information. If you do not yet have Internet access then tap Try Again, but then
tap Back and then Skip the connection step.
Entering your PIN
When you install a SIM card for the first time, you may need to enter a PIN
using the onscreen number pad.
Important: Depending on your settings, you may be required to enter your PIN each
time you switch on the phone function.
Activating a new SIM card
If you are using your SIM card for the first time, it may require activation.
Contact your network operator for details on how to do this.
Locking your smartphone
If you will not use your smartphone for a while, briefly press the power button
to lock access. This saves power and ensures your smartphone does not
unintentionally use any services. Your smartphone will lock automatically if it is
not used for one minute.
Waking your smartphone
If the screen is off and the smartphone does not react to any taps on the screen
or front panel button, then it has been locked and is in sleep mode.
