1. Getting Started

Please read the safety instructions in the

“Precautions” section before using your phone.

About SIM cards

To use your phone, you must insert a valid SIM card

supplied by your network operator or retailer. The

SIM card contains your subscription information,

your mobile phone number and a memory in which

you can store phone numbers and messages.

With two SIM card slots, X710 allows you to use

two SIM cards or phone numbers on one phone.

You can access or choose to send calls and

messages from the secondary SIM card, if you have

set the secondary SIM card to active.

Some functions are only available on the primary

SIM card, such as those requiring GPRS, WAP,

OTA services, the interactive data services, moving

and copying messages between the phone and SIM

card. To use such functions on a secondary SIM

card, press RSwap SIM to change it to the

primary SIM card, if necessary.

Insert SIM cards

Follow the steps below to insert your new SIM

cards.Remember to switch off your mobile phone

before removing the back cover.

1. Press on the back cover and slide the cover as

shown.

2. As shown, take out the battery.

6 Getting Started

You may lose all your personal settings if you

remove the battery when the phone is switched

on.

3. As shown, align your SIM card with the SIM

card slot, clipped corner facing you and gold

contact downwards. Insert your SIM card

under the metal clip holder.

4. As shown, align the metallic connectors on the

battery and battery slot. Press the battery

down until it is locked.

5. As shown, slide the back cover along the slots

Getting Started 7

Charge the battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery.

A new battery is partially charged. The battery

symbol indicates the state of the battery. To charge

the battery, plug in the connector as shown below.

Then plug the other end into a power socket.

During charging, the battery symbol scrolls. It takes

about 6 hours to fully recharge the battery.

Depending on the network and condition of use,

talk time goes up to 8.5 hours and stand-by time up

to one month.

Keeping the charger plugged to the mobile

phone when the battery is fully charged will not

damage the battery. The only way to turn off

the charger is to unplug it, so it is advisable to

use an easily accessible power socket.

If you do not intend to use your phone for

several days, we recommend that you remove

the battery.

You can use the phone while it is charging. If

the battery is completely flat, the battery

symbol will only reappear after a few minutes

of charging.

according to sequence. When you wish to input the

character, press the keys corresponding to the

required strokes according to sequence to get the

desired character. The stroke input method in this

phone classifies a Chinese character into 5 basic

strokes: (horizontal, vertical, left falling stroke,

right falling stroke and over-down) as well as a

special stroke. When the stroke you need does not

correspond to the 5 basic strokes, replace it with

the special stroke.
