NOTE
Proximity sensor
When receiving and making calls, the proximity sensor automatically turns the backlight
off and locks the touch screen by sensing when the phone is near your ear. This extends
battery life and prevents you from unintentionally activating the touch screen during
calls.
WARNING!
Placing a heavy object on the phone or sitting on it can damage the LCD and touch
screen functions. Do not cover the LCD proximity sensor with protective film. This
could cause the sensor to malfunction.
TIP!
If your phone has errors when you use it or you cannot turn it on, remove the battery,
install it again and turn it on after 5 seconds.
