skin, wallpaper, screensaver, ring tone, volume, vibrate and voicemail number.
If there are contacts saved in your SIM card, you are invited, if you wish, to copy them in the phone contacts memory.

Activating your phone 17
Setting time and date
When you use your phone for the first time, you need to set the date and time.
In due course, when the battery is completely discharged, or if it has been removed, you will be prompted systematically to
confirm date and time.
Setting the date:
Set the date by entering it directly in numerical form or by using

key (or
W
key) to access the next (or last) data input field.
Once the date is correct, press the key to validate.
Setting the time:
Same procedure as for setting the date.
Network
From now on the phone hunts for a network on which it can make calls. If it finds one, it displays the name of the network on
the screen. You are then ready to send or receive a call.
First call
Dial the number of your correspondent.
Press the key.
During the call, the call in progress icon flashes on screen and tones may indicate the establishment of the call.
Once communication has been established, the call icon stops flashing.
You can adjust the sound level (volume) using the
T
S
keys.
At the end of the conversation press the key to hang up.
If the network icon appears, calls are possible on your operator's network.
If the letter R and a network name are displayed, calls are possible on the network of a different operator.
If the letter E is displayed without any network name, only the emergency services are accessible (ambulance, police,
fire brigade).
If the network icon flashes, the phone is in permanent search mode. There is no network available. The signal strength
indicator received allows you to display the quality of reception. If it indicates less than three bars, search for better
reception in order to call in good conditions.

Using your phone 19
Using your phone
Freeing the antenna
The antenna is integrated inside your phone, under the back cover at the top.
Avoid putting your fingers on this area when the phone is switched ON.
If your fingers obstruct the antenna, the phone may have to operate with a higher
power level than usual; decreasing its efficiency quickly. It could also affect the
quality of your communications.
Increase the efficiency of your phone
-Don't press the keys when not necessary: each keypress activates the backlight, and uses much power.
-Don't activate too often the screensaver: if the frequency of activation is too high, the power consumption increases.
252085045_myV-56_lu_en.book Page 19 Lundi, 30. mai 2005 3:54 15

20 Using your phone
Charging the battery
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. A new battery must be
charged for 4 hours at least before being used for the first time. It reaches its
optimum capacity after a few cycles of use.
When your battery has been discharged, the phone displays the state (empty
battery icon flashes). In this case recharge your battery for at least 15 minutes
before making any calls in order not to be cut off in the middle of a call.
To recharge the battery
Connect the charger to a socket.
Plug the end of the cable into the bottom connector of the phone.
The phone is then charging up. The battery icon is scrolling up and down to
indicate that it is charging. When the battery is fully charged, the charging stops
on its own. Disconnect the cable.
When charging, the battery may warm up, this phenomenon is normal.
WARNING
There is danger of explosion if the battery is placed in an incorrectly way or if it is exposed to fire.
Do not short circuit it.
The battery does not have any part that you can change.
Do not try to open the battery casing.
Use only the appropriate chargers and batteries recommended by your Vodafone retailer.
Used batteries must be disposed of in the appropriate places.
We advise you to take the battery out if you plan not to use the phone for extended periods.
