2.2 Using the touchscreen
Your phone provides many touch keys in the Main screen. To use
these keys correctly, calibrate the touch screen in advance (see
“
Calibrator
”). Meanwhile please follow the instructions:
• Do not touch the screen with wet hands.
• Do not touch the screen with great forces.
• Do not touch the screen with metallic or conductive objects.
2.3 Connecting to the network
2.3.1 Inserting and removing the SIM card
Turn off the phone; remove the battery and unplug other external
power supplies. Insert the SIM card into the SIM holder as shown
in the phone.
When you need to remove the SIM card, turn off the phone, remove
the battery and then remove the SIM card from the holder.
Warning: Do turn off your phone before removing the SIM card. Nev-
er insert or remove the SIM card when an external power supply is
connected, as this may cause damage to the SIM card.
2.3.2 Turning your phone on and off
To turn on the phone, hold down the POWER key on the top; to turn
off the phone, hold down the POWER key.
If you have turned on your phone without inserting the SIM card, the
phone will prompt you to install the SIM card. With the SIM card al-
ready inserted, your phone automatically verifies the availability of the
SIM Card.
Then, the screen shows the following:
Enter PIN1 —> if your have set the SIM card password.
Enter phone password —> if you have set your phone password
Search for network —> the phone searches for the appropriate network.
Notes:
If when you turn on the mobile phone, an exclamation mark appears
on the screen and does not disappear, this is possibly caused by
misoperation, that is, you press the Power key and the Volume Up
key at the same time. Such misoperation activates the recovery
mode, hence the occurrence of exclamation mark. If you just turn
off the phone, next time when you turn it on, it will still come to the
recovery mode.
Solution:
Press the Home key when the exclamation mark and robot appear, a
menu will pop up. Use the Menu key to select “reboot system now”
to restart the phone.
2.3.3 Unlocking the SIM card
The PIN 1 (personal identification number) secures your SIM card
from being misused by others. If you have selected this function, you
must enter the PIN1 code each time you turn on the phone so that
you may unlock the SIM card and then make or answer calls. You can
deactivate SIM card protection (see “Safety settings”). In this case,
the misuse of your SIM card cannot be prevented.
• Press the Hang Up key to turn on your phone;
• Enter your PIN1 code. Clear the incorrect digits by using the right
soft key, and press OK for confirmation. e.g. if your PIN1 is 1234,
please enter: 1 2 3 4
If you enter incorrect numbers for three times in succession, your
SIM card will be locked and your phone will ask you to enter PUK
1 number. If you do not know the PUK1 code, do not try. Instead,
contact your network service provider. See “Safety settings”.
Note:
your network service provider sets a standard PIN1 code (4
to 8 digits) for your SIM card. You should immediately change this
number. See “Safety settings”.
2.3.4 Unlocking your phone
To prevent unauthorized use, you can set phone protection. If you
have selected this function, you must draw unlocking pattern each
time you turn on your phone, to unlock the phone and then make or
answer calls. You may clear the unlocking pattern (see “Safety set-
tings”). In this case, the unauthorized use of your phone cannot be
protected.
If you forget your phone password, you must contact the retailer or
local authorized service center to unlock your phone.
2.3.5 Connecting to the network
• Once your SIM card is unlocked, your phone searches for available
network automatically (the screen will show the network searching is
underway). If your phone has found the available network, the name
of network service provider appears at the center of screen.
Note: Making an emergency call If “only for emergency calls” ap-
pears on the screen, it indicates that you are beyond the network
coverage (service area), and that you can still make emergency calls
depending on the signal intensity.
2.3.6 Making a call
When the logo of network service provider appears on the screen,
you can make or answer a call. The bars at the upper left corner of
screen indicate the intensity of network signal.
Conversation quality is significantly affected by obstacles, thus mov-
ing within a small area while making or answering a call can improve
the conversation quality.
2.3.7 Making a domestic call
In the Dial screen, enter a number, and press the Dial key to make a
call. To change the number, delete the digits you have entered. During
dialing, the animation appears on the screen. After the call is picked up,
the screen will show call status information. If the connection alert tone
has been set, your phone will ring the alert tone (network dependent).
