Basic operations of the iHome Phone
You can operate the iHome Phone by touching the surface of the screen using the Stylus
pen (included) or with your finger.
4.3.1 Using the stylus pen
The stylus pen is tucked away inside a holder (see page 4).
To remove the stylus pen, simply pull it out of the holder.
Whenever you want to replace the stylus pen back into the holder, make sure that the clip
is facing up and the pen is inserted with the tip first. Then, gently push the stylus pen into
the holder.
Familiarize yourself with the stylus actions until you can navigate the various screens on
your iHome Phone.
