Device Overview

Guided Tour

Navigation Arrows

By pressing the navigation arrows – left or right, up or down – you can scroll through the options and lists on the display. To select an item, press the OK button in the center of the four-way navigation arrows. To cancel or back up to a previous screen, press the X or Cancel button below the down navigation arrow. These keys also function as a fast way to navigate to many functions, such as placed calls, received calls, and directory contacts.

Softkeys

The softkeys perform the functions that appear directly above them on the display. Their functions are context-sensitive, which means the function of the softkeys change depending on your current activity. For example, if you are conferencing, the softkeys display functions related to the conferencing. You can also see a list of available settings and options by selecting the OK key. Scroll through the options with the navigation arrows and select Settings. Here, you are able to configure your language, time and date, as well as update your phone’s display and sound settings.
