Welcome
Nice one.
You’re now the proud owner of an O2X4.
Apart from a top mobile, you’ve bought yourself a shed
load of benefits and services that’ll keep you ahead of the
game for a good while yet.
There’s the 1.3 megapixel camera (with flash) that can take
pictures worthy of the mind blowing 262,000 colours that
the O2X4 colour screen can handle.
xiii
At last the perfect combination; hi-res camera + hi-res
screen = quality pix that you can show and send to people
without having to attach an explanation of what they’re
meant to be.
Not just stills though, the O2X4 is so smart that it lets you
record and play video as well.
Now you can really do your personal messages justice.
It’s also a really good music player on which to store and
play your own MP3 files with an expanded memory pack
so you can store more of whatever you want.
Welcome

Your O2X4 also holds the key to the
whole world of O2Active services. At
3G speeds* you can access streaming
video footage from all sorts of sources
news, sporting highlights and music.
And because your O2X4 links directly
to your PC using its own cable, you can
upload and download files to your
heart’s content.†
It’s been our pleasure to develop the
O2X4, we hope it’s your pleasure to
use it.
* Subject to 3G coverage.

To use your mobile, a SIM card is required at all times –
this contains important information about your mobile and
network. The message Insert SIM appears when the SIM
card is not installed.
Please take care of your SIM card and don’t keep it near
magnetic and electronic devices as this can interfere with
data storage and network operations.
•Turn your mobile over and release the battery latch
•Lift the battery off the mobile
Please note:
Do not remove the battery when the mobile is on. Doing
so could cause you to lose personal settings or data stored
either on your SIM card or in the mobile’s memory.
Plug in your SIM
•Slide the SIM card in under the metal grooves in the SIM
card slot, with the SIM card’s metal contacts facing down
and the cut corner at the bottom left
Please note:
A SIM card can be easily damaged if its metal contacts
become scratched. Therefore, take special care when
holding or inserting it.
If you wish to remove the
SIM card, you must first
press down the stay, then
push the SIM card out of
the slot.

Power connection
Insert the charger’s contact point into the slot and plug the
charger in at the socket.
Please ensure you insert the charger the right side up.
Please note:
Before you use the battery for the first time, make sure
you charge it for at least four hours. Charging the battery
fully each time will help prolong its lifetime – and is much
better than frequent short bursts of charging.
21
Installing the battery
Insert the bottom of the battery into the groove at the
bottom of the mobile. Then push down the battery until it
locks into place.
Removing the battery
Pull down the tab with one hand and then lift the top of
the battery to separate from the mobile.
Please note:
The battery must be securely placed in the battery
compartment. If the battery is improperly inserted your
mobile will not turn on or the battery may slip off
during use.
