User Guide
English – Version 4.3
Two documents are available to help you learn how to use your new phone:
1. The main features become very clear thanks to the audio CD that is included in the box, designed
for a listening experience in actual operating condition.
2. This user guide is divided in four parts: first, a list of the 10 must-know preliminary points and 5
advanced points, then the table of contents, followed by chapters 2 to 6 explaining how to use the
interface and make calls, and finally chapters 7 to 16 describing how to use the different
applications.
Despite this phone being relatively simple to use, we strongly advise you to carefully read this guide to
master all of its features (especially the 10 must-know key-points) and to go back to it whenever you have a
question. Make sure to keep your cell phone, its elastomer keypad overlay and your SIM card close at hand
while you go through our guide.
