HTC 8900 Cell Phone User Manual


 
26 Getting Started
1.4 Starting Up
After inserting your SIM card and battery and charging the battery, you can
now power on and start using your device.
Turn your device on and off
To turn on your device, press and hold the POWER button. When
you turn on your device for the first time, a Quick Start Wizard will
guide you through the calibration process and the setup of regional
settings, date and time, and password. For more information about
touch screen calibration, see “Calibrate the device”.
To turn off your device, press and hold the POWER button for a few
seconds. A message will then be displayed, prompting you whether
or not to turn off the device completely.
Switch your device to Sleep mode
Quickly pressing the POWER button turns off the display temporarily and
switches your device to Sleep mode. Sleep mode suspends your device to a
low power state while the display is off in order to save battery power.
Your device also automatically goes into Sleep mode when you leave the
device idle after a certain amount of time.
To specify the timeout period before your device goes into Sleep mode
1. Tap Start > Settings > System tab > Power > Advanced tab.
2. Under On battery power, make sure the Turn off device if not used
for check box is selected.
3. Select the battery timeout period, then tap OK.
You will still be able to receive messages and calls while your device is in
Sleep mode. Pressing the POWER button again or new incoming calls/
messages will wake up your device.
Calibrate the device
Calibrating the touch screen involves tapping the center of a cross with the
stylus as the cross moves around the screen. This process ensures that when
you tap the screen with your stylus, the tapped item is activated.
