My phone in 5 minutes

Setting time and date

Date and time

Valid date?

thursday

15 JAN 2004

Cancel OK

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 the

keys to increase or decrease the default values.

Use the key (or 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 time.

If necessary, you can choose the Time zone and eventually the season.

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.

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 R 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.
