8 Getting Started
Turning Your Phone On and Off
To turn your phone on:
•
Press to turn your phone on.
Once your phone is on, it automatically enters standby mode – the phone’s standby
mode. At this point, you are ready to begin making and receiving calls.
If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching, the Power
Save mode is automatically activated. When a signal is found, your phone
automatically returns to standby mode.
In Power Save mode, your phone periodically searches for a signal without your
intervention. You can also initiate a search for service by pressing any key (when
your phone is turned on).
Tip: The Power Save mode helps to conserve battery power when you are in an
area without a signal.
To turn your phone off:
•
Press and hold for two seconds until you see the powering down
animation on the display screen.
Your screen remains blank while your phone is off (unless the battery is charging).
Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger
Battery Capacity
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery. It allows you to recharge
your battery before it is fully drained.
When the battery reaches a low capacity, the battery icon will blink, followed
eventually by an audible alert and then power off.
Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, playing games,
or using the web affect the battery’s talk and standby times.
Tip: Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the battery
before it runs out of power.
