Getting Started with Your Phone
14
Battery Temperature Protection
Though extremely rare, if the
battery becomes overheated, the
phone will automatically turn off.
When you turn the phone back on,
a message pops up alerting you
that the phone was powered off for
your safety.
Battery Charge Level
You can find the battery charge
level at the top right corner of the
LCD screen. When the charge level
approaches low, the battery sensor
sounds a warning tone, blinks
the battery icon, and displays a
warning message. As the charge
level approaches empty, the phone
automatically switches off without
saving any current tasks.
Signal Strength
Call quality depends on the signal
strength in your area. You can tell
how much signal strength you have
by the number of bars next to the
signal strength icon: the more bars,
the stronger the signal. If you’re
having problems with signal quality,
move to an open area or, when
inside a building, try moving near
a window.
Screen Icons
When the phone is on, the LCD
screen displays the phone's status
icons. To view what they mean:
1. Unlock the touch screen by
dragging up and
touch the Menu Quick Key .
2. Touch Settings .
3. Touch Phone Info.
4. Touch Icon Glossary.
5. Touch a category of icons from
the list to display its status
icons.
Making Calls
1. Unlock the touch screen by
dragging up.
2. Touch the Phone Quick Key
to display the dialpad. Enter the
phone number you want to call.
NOTE You can search your Contact List
or Recent Calls
and select a number to call
instead of manually dialing.
