Safety
Never attempt to disassemble your phone. You alone are responsible for how
you use your phone and any consequences of its use.
As a general rule, always switch off your phone wherever the use of a phone is
prohibited. Use of your phone is subject to safety measures designed to protect
users and their environment.
Do not use your phone in damp areas (bathroom, swimming pool…). Protect it
from liquids and other moisture.
Do not expose your phone to extreme temperatures lower than - 10°C and
higher than + 55°C.
The physicochemical processes created by chargers impose temperature limits
when charging the battery. Your phone automatically protects the batteries in
extreme temperatures.
Do not leave your phone within the reach of small children (certain removable
parts may be accidentally ingested).
Electrical safety: Only use the chargers listed in the manufacturer’s catalogue.
Using any other charger may be dangerous; it would also invalidate your
warranty. Line voltage must be exactly the one indicated on the charger’s serial
plate.
Aircraft safety: When traveling by plane, you will need to switch your phone
off when so instructed by the cabin crew or the warning signs.
Using a mobile phone may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft and may
disrupt the phone network.
Its use is illegal and you could be prosecuted or banned from using cellular
networks in the future if you do not abide by these regulations.
Explosive materials: Please comply with warning signs at petrol station asking
you to switch your phone off. You will need to comply with radio equipment
usage restrictions in places such as chemical plants, fuel depots and at any
location where blasting operations are under way.
Electronic equipment: To avoid the risk of demagnetization, do not let
electronic devices close to your phone for a long time.
Electronic medical equipment: Your phone is a radio transmitter which may
interfere with electronic medical equipment or implants, such as hearing aids,
pacemakers, insulin pumps, etc. It is recommended that a minimum separation
of 15 cm be maintained between the phone and an implant. Your doctor or the

4
manufacturers of such equipment will be able to give you any advice you may
need in this area.
Hospitals: Always make sure that your phone is switched off in hospitals when
so instructed by warning signs or by medical staff.
Road safety: Do not use your phone when driving. In order to give your full
attention to driving, stop and park safely before making a call. You must comply
with any current legislation.
Distance of operation: This phone model has been tested and meets
radiofrequency exposure guidelines when used as follows:
• Against the ear: Place or receive a phone call and hold the phone as you would
a wire line telephone.
• Body worn: When transmitting, place the phone in a carry accessory that
contains no metal and positions the phone a minimum of 1.0 cm form your body.
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with radiofrequency
exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body worn accessory and are not
holding the phone at the ear, position the phone a minimum of 1.0 cm from your
body,
• Data operation: When using a data feature, position the phone a minimum of
1.0 cm from your body for the whole duration of the data transmission.
Environment
Packaging: To facilitate the recycling of packaging materials, please obey the
sorting rules instituted locally for this type of waste.
Batteries: Spent batteries must be deposited at the designated collection points.
The product: The crossed-out waste bin mark affixed to the product means that
it belongs to the family of electrical and electronic equipment.
To promote the recycling and recovery of waste electrical and electronic
equipment (WEEE) and at the same time safeguard the environment, European
regulations require you to obey the sorting rules instituted locally for this type
of waste.

4 ActiveSync
4.1 Data synchronization
Some applications on your phone (Contacts and so on) give you access to the
same personal information that you can add, view, and edit on your computer
using Web applications. This means that when you add, change, or delete your
information in any of these applications on the Web, the updated information
also appears on your phone, and vice versa. Also, if you lose your phone or if
your phone is destroyed, your personal information is not lost and will appear,
as before, on a replacement phone.
This mirroring of information happens through over-the-air data
synchronization, or data “syncing”. Data syncing occurs in the background and
shouldn’t ever get in your way. You’ll know your data is being synchronized
when you see this icon in the status bar:
Because sending large amounts of data back and forth over the air can take time
and require considerable bandwidth, there are some settings on the phone that
allow you to control data sync.

18
Sync by application
To control synchronization Contacts, you can do the following:
1. On the Home screen, then touch and select Settings.
2. Select Accounts & sync. When any of the applications are synchronizing, you
will see the “sync” icon . You will also see the last time your data was
synchronized.
3. By default, the personal information in Contacts will sync whenever you
make a change or receive a new message. You can change this behavior:
Auto-sync: When selected, Auto-sync will sync Contacts automatically, as you
make changes or receive new messages. When OFF, information will not be
synced automatically, although you can force sync by using the individual
application check boxes described below.
4. Sync problems:
If you see this icon to the left of the sync check box, then there was a
temporary problem with the data synchronization. Check your data connection
and try again later.
4.2 Bluetooth
You can use Bluetooth to send and receive calls using a headset or hands-free
car kit.
Turn on Bluetooth services
1. On the Home screen, then touch and select Settings.
2. Select Bluetooth, and then select ‘Bluetooth’ check box to turn on Bluetooth
services.
3. When on, the Bluetooth icon appears in the status bar.

up to 120 seconds.
To make your phone discoverable:
1. Make sure you have turned Bluetooth on.

Bluetooth devices within range. As they are found, the devices appear in the list
of Bluetooth devices.
3. To pair with a device in the list, select it.

Notes: The phone supports only the headset and hands-free Bluetooth profiles,
so if you try to connect to a device that is not a headset or hands-free car kit,
then you will receive an “unable to connect” message.
If you pair with a second headset while connected to the first, the first headset
will remain connected. To switch connection to the second headset you must
manually select that headset again after pairing.
