Automatic proximity sensor
Your phone has a built-in proximity sensor. To locate the proximity sensor, see the picture
of the different keys and parts in the Quick start guide. When you put the phone to your
ear, the proximity sensor turns off the loudspeaker and changes back to earpiece mode. The
proximity sensor works by sensing if something solid is approaching, so it is possible that
the proximity sensor will react to objects that it is not meant to.
Note: The proximity sensor is not active when an application that is meant to be
used by holding the phone away from your mouth and face, for example, a game, is
active. In this case, when a call comes in, loudspeaker mode is stopped and you can
answer the call normally by pressing and placing the phone to your ear.
Note: The proximity sensor cannot activate the loudspeaker.
Headset mode
To adjust the volume level when a headset is connected to your phone, move the joystick
to the right or left or use the headset’s keys.
