GETTING STARTED
The BIG500SWA model is a phone with a normal keypad,
but that has a series of particular features:
• The SW is ANDROID with WhatsApp pre-installed
• The 2,8” display is a touch screen.
• The main menu is made up of a series of panels with
icons that are simple to interpret.
USING THE TOUCHSCREEN
Unlike normal phones, on which the Display is only used
to display what has been selected using the keypad, the
BIG500SWA has a Display that can be said to be a “Touch-
screen”.
What does that mean?
The Touchscreen makes it possible to use the screen itself
as an active area for accessing menus, icons, and various
functions. This means that by simply touching a specific
icon / function with your fingertip, it is activated and you can
access a sub-menu or other specific functions.
You can therefore touch a point, or “swipe” your finger over
the screen to move the page, unlock the screen, or do many
other actions.
Since this phone has both a touchscreen and a normal
numerical keypad, for many of its functions you are free to
choose whether to use the touchscreen or the numerical
keypad, or interact with both (for example, when using
WhatsApp).
NOTE: This choice cannot be made everywhere. Check
what you can and can’t do from time to time, using only
the touchscreen or the keypad. This does not indicate a
defect in the soware.
USER MANUAL | page 13
• How to unlock the Display
If the phone is on and no activity takes place for a defined time
(usually 30 seconds), the phone’s screen turns black. This is done
to reduce consumption on the battery.
Therefore its status is: phone on, keypad blocked, and display o.
To unlock the screen and begin using the phone, use one of the
two options indicated below:
1) Push the on/o key (red key) for one second, then swipe the
lock key that is displayed at the bottom of the screen to the right.
2) Alternatively, push the le key immediately followed by the *
(asterisk) key, with the display o.
This brings up large icons on the screen, for the following
functions:
1. “Date and time” - the current date and time are displayed.
2. “Contact” - the contacts saved on the SIM and in the Phone.
3. “WhatsApp“ - the chat application
4. “Phone” - to be able to make a phone call
5. “Message” - to be able to send and read messages
Swipe to the right (once) to open a screen that
has 6 favourite contacts that are immediately available (part of
the contacts list)
Swipe to the le (a number of times) to access
other screens that provide access to a series of functions such as,
“Camera”, “Internet“, “File manager”, ”Facebook” (via internet),
”Tools”, etc. (See Fig. 2)
USER MANUAL | page 14
Chapter 3
GETTING STARTED
USING WhatsApp (this app must be enabled):
NOTE: To use WhatsApp the phone must be connected to the
data network via the SIM, or to a Wi-Fi connection. In both
cases we recommend checking the costs of these services
with the service providers.
When using WhatsApp for the first time, you need to enable it.
You must therefore link it to your personal number for the SIM in
the phone.
Then refer to the following points:
1. With the SIM inserted and registered on the internet
(the phone operator’s name is shown in the display) touch the
“WhatsApp” icon on the display - see Fig. 2.
2. Follow the instructions in the sequence they
appear on the screen (you will be asked to add your phone
number).
3. You will receive a message with a activation code,
via that same number (therefore on this phone).
4. Enter this code, where indicated.
(next)
Fig.2
USER MANUAL | page 15
Once the activation procedure has been completed, to use
WhatsApp normally, follow the instructions below:
1. The main menu includes the “WhatsApp” icon.
2. Touch the icon on the display (touchscreen).
3. An icon circled in green (create new message) will be dis-
played in the bottom right corner.
4. Open the contacts menu and choose the contact you want
to write to.
5. Now key in the text of the message.
6. To enter the text you must use the phone’s keypad, which
is set as:
Default setting: Abc lettering”. Each key pushed
corresponds to a letter (according to the individual keys). For
example, to enter the letter “b”, push key 2 twice in quick succes-
sion, and so on.
Push the # (hash) key to switch to the “intuitive
dictionary” mode, and words will be suggested by the SW.
NOTE: not all commonly used words are recognised, this is not a
SW defect.
Push the # (hash) key again to switch to entering
“numbers” only (0 ,1, 2, etc.)
To attach a file (image or any other), touch the
paper clip icon at the bottom right of the screen for the text you
are entering. A list of folders will open, from which the files to be
attached can be taken.
Once you have completed the message, use the
key with the arrow outlined in green to send the message.
To read a WhatsApp message that you have re-
ceived, touch the area of the notification on the screen. You can
reply to the message by repeating points 5 and 6 above, for the
messages to be read.

USER MANUAL | page 18
Chapter 3
GETTING STARTED
Note:
Ensure that the plug of the charger and the plug of the USB
cable are inserted in the right direction. Inserting them
in a wrong direction may cause charging failure or other
problems.
Before the charging, ensure that the standard voltage and
frequency of the local main supply match the rated voltage
and power of the travel charger.
USER MANUAL | page 19
Insert charging connec-
tor here
Plug the charger
plug into an
appropriate
100-240V ~
50-60 Hz power
outlet
Using a travel adapter:
Install the battery into the mobile phone before charging
the battery.
Connect the adapter of the travel charger with the
charging slot in the mobile phone. Ensure that the
adapter is fully inserted.
Insert the plug of the travel charger to an appropriate
power outlet.
During the charging, the battery level grids in the battery
icon keep flickering till the battery is fully charged.
It is normal that the battery becomes hot during the
charging period.
The battery icon does no longer flicker when the charging
process ends.
4 BATTERY USAGE
The performance of a battery is subject to multiple factors:
radio network configuration, signal strength, ambient
temperature, chosen functions or settings, phone fittings, and
the voice, data or other application mode you choose to use.
To guarantee the optimal performance of your battery, please
stick to the following rules:
Use only the battery provided by the vendor. Otherwise,
damages or even injuries could be caused during the
charging.
Power o the mobile phone before removing the
battery.
The charging process lasts a longer time for a new
battery or a battery not in use for long. If the battery
voltage is too low to enable the mobile phone to be
powered on, charge the battery for a longer time. In this
case, the battery icon does not flicker until a long time
aer the battery enters the charge status.
During the charging, ensure the battery is placed in a
room temperature environment or in an environment
close to room temperature.
Immediately stop using the battery if the battery
produces odor, overheats, cracks, distorts or has other
damage, or if the electrolyte leaks.
The battery wears out with use. A longer charging time
is required as the battery is put into use for a long time.
If the total conversation duration decreases but the
charging time increases even though the battery is
properly charged, purchase a standard battery from the
OEM or use a battery approved by our company. Using
any poor-quality fittings will cause harm to your mobile
phone or even incur danger!
