Nokia 9000il owner manual Keyboard, Battery level, Field strength

Chapter 2 - Getting started 2-11

Battery level

– Battery is low. The battery should be recharged.

– Battery is charging (the bar scrolls until it is fully charged). The outlet plug icon indicates that the commu- nicator is connected to an external power source (usually a wall outlet).

– Battery is fully charged (five bars displayed).

Field strength

– The communicator is connected to a GSM1900 network. When all five indicator bars are shown, radio sig- nal reception is good. If the signal strength is not good, you can try to improve reception by moving the phone slightly or by using the com- municator in the hands free mode.

– The phone interface is on, but the communicator is outside of a net- work coverage area.

– The phone interface is off. The com- municator cannot send or receive calls or messages (via either interface).

Keyboard

In addition to the normal character and number keys, the keyboard has a number of special keys, as shown in Figure 2-13.

1. Application buttons

The row of nine buttons at the top of the key- board (starting from Tel.) activate the corre- sponding applications.

2. Escape (ESC)

To cancel an action, you can either press Cancel or the escape key. The escape key can only be used when Cancel is among the available com- mands. All information notes (like a received fax notification) shown on the display can also be dismissed with the escape key (instead of press- ing the OK command).

3. Tab

Use the tab key to navigate in screens which re- quire you to move from field to field (like the User data page). When editing your own texts, the tab key moves the cursor to the next tab stop.

4. Shift

When you press the shift key and then a letter key, an uppercase letter is inserted in front of the cursor. The shift key does not need to be held down at the same time as the desired letter key;
