Finally, on the Home screen, press the Star (*) button under the 7 to check the number of activated alarms.
This number is given after the date.
It is also possible to add new Alarm ringtones. To do so, just connect your phone to your computer (as
explained in paragraph 11.1. above) and drag and drop an audio file (frequently mp3) in the Alarms folder
before disconnecting your phone. The new ringtone will appear on the last row of the ringtones list upon
the creation of an alarm.

The GPS Application
Your phone is provided with a pedestrian and car GPS using Google Maps data to guide you on short
distance itineraries. Using your GPS requires an internet connection (Wi-Fi or 3G). A 3G connection with
your telecom operator subscription is necessary for a completely mobile use.
The itineraries must be considered as guidelines only and you may have to follow a different path than the
one calculated if you encounter construction work, traffic jams, difficult weather conditions, diversions or
other problems. Please take this into account when preparing your travel.
To start the GPS from the Home screen, press “5- Utilities” then “2- GPS”.
Important: do not forget to switch on the GPS sensor before launching the application. You can do that
from the General Options menu by pressing the “Sleep-Wake” button for two seconds, or from the Home
screen by going to “9- Settings”, “1- Connections” and “3- GPS” (“1- WiFi”).
11.3.1.
Choose an itinerary and let
the app
guide you
There are two different ways to program an itinerary:
- By selecting “1- Destination only” in the GPS menu, you choose only your destination. The GPS takes your
current position as your starting point.
- By selecting “2- Start and destination” in the GPS Menu, you can choose both your starting point and
destination. This can be useful when preparing a trip or to specify your starting point if the GPS doesn’t
automatically detect your exact position, especially if you are inside a building.
To enter an address you can type it with the ABC keyboard, enter it vocally or select it in your favourite
addresses list.
To enter a place using the voice recognition system, you have to speak very clearly and specify the city or
zip code (for example: 10, Downing Street, London).
Once you have set your starting point and destination, the GPS app calculates your itinerary and presents it
as a list of directions guiding you step by step to your destination. You can check if the itinerary suits you if
you already know it by going through the list with the Up and Down arrow keys.
Then, it informs you automatically through your earphones or speaker of the direction you have to take
while you go, until you reach the final destination.
From an itinerary screen, you can access the following options by pressing the Menu key:
- “1- Current Location”/”Where am I”: to get the address the closest from your current position
