stored in the shared memory features before continuing. Some of the features,
such as Messaging and Contacts, may have a certain amount of memory specially
allotted to them in addition to the memory shared with other features.

The security feature protects your device from unauthorized outgoing calls or

of your phone number), instead of the security code.
You must enter your lock code to access the Security menu.
To access the Security menu, do the following:
1. Select Menu > Settings > Security.
2. Enter the lock code, and select OK. See "Security," p. 79.
Depending on your wireless service provider, the preset lock code may be
1234 or 0000 instead of the last four digits of your phone number. If none of
these work, contact your wireless service provider for more help.

security code (defaulted to 12345 or 00000) instead of the lock code.

accept your current lock code for 5 minutes. This occurs even if when you power
down the phone between incorrect attempts.

■Antenna
Your device has an external antenna. Extend the
antenna fully.
Hold the device as you would any other telephone
with the antenna area pointed up and over your
shoulder.
Note: As with any other radio transmitting device, do not touch the
antenna unnecessarily when the device is switched on.
Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the device
to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed. Avoiding
contact with the antenna area when operating the device optimizes the
antenna performance and the battery life.
■Battery
Always switch off the power and disconnect the charger and any other device
before removing the battery. Avoid touching electronic components while
changing the covers. Always store and use the device with the covers attached.
Prolonged, continuous use of your device may increase the device temperature.
The increased temperature is a normal function of this product and does not pose
a safety concern for you or the device. If the temperature is uncomfortable to
you, use a headset or allow your device to return to room temperature before
your next call.
