Switching your phone on or off

Switching your phone on

Press the POWER button. Easy.

When you turn on the phone for the first time, you’ll need to set it up. Go to “Setting up your phone for the first time” and we’ll take you through it.

Switching your phone off

1.If the display is off, press the POWER button to turn it back on.

2.Unlock your phone if the Lock screen is displayed. See “Unlocking the screen” in the Getting started chapter.

3.Press and hold the POWER button until you see the word “Goodbye” onscreen.

Entering your PIN

Most SIM cards come with a PIN (personal identification number) set by your mobile operator. If you’re asked for a PIN, enter it and then tap enter.

To find out how to enable, disable, or change the PIN, see “Protecting your SIM card with a PIN” in the Security chapter.

If you enter the PIN wrong three times, your SIM card is blocked. No problem. Just contact your mobile operator and ask for the PUK (PIN Unblocking Key).

Finger gestures

Tap

When you want to type using the keyboard, select items onscreen such as apps

 

and settings, or press onscreen buttons, simply tap them with your finger.

 

 

Press and hold

To open the available options for an item (e.g. contact or link in a web page),

 

simply press and hold the item.

 

 

Swipe or slide

To swipe or slide means to quickly drag your finger vertically or horizontally across

 

the screen.

 

 

Drag

Press and hold your finger with some pressure before you start to drag. While

 

dragging, do not release your finger until you have reached the target position.

 

 

Flick

Flicking the screen is similar to swiping, except that you need to swipe your finger

 

in light, quicker strokes. This finger gesture is always in a vertical direction, such as

 

when flicking the contacts or message list.

 

 

Rotate

For most screens, you can automatically change the screen orientation from

 

portrait to landscape by turning the phone sideways. When entering text, you can

 

turn the phone sideways to bring up a bigger keyboard.

 

 

Pinch

In some applications, like Pictures or the web browser, you can “pinch” the screen

 

using 2 fingers (for example, thumb and index fingers) to zoom in or zoom out

 

when viewing a picture or a web page.
