Using Your Treo 700w Smartphone 11
Turning your smartphone on/off CHAPTER 1
Turning your smartphone on/off
The phone and the screen of your Palm Treo 700w smartphone can be
turned off and on separately. This means you can wake up the screen to
use just the organizer features of your device, without turning on the
phone. Also, when the screen is turned off the phone can be on and
ready for you to receive and make calls.
Turning your phone on and off
When you turn on your phone, it connects to a mobile network so that
you can make and receive phone calls and use other wireless services.
1. Press and hold Power/End to turn on your phone. When your
smartphone locates a signal, Verizon Wireless and the signal-
strength icon appear at the top of the screen, indicating you can
use the phone and Internet features (if supported by the local
network).
2. Press and hold Power/End again to turn off your phone. When
your phone is off, the phone-off icon appears at the top of the
screen and your smartphone is not connected to any mobile
network. You can still use the organizer and other features.
Waking up the screen and turning it off
Wake up the screen and leave the phone turned off when you want to
use only the organizer features of your smartphone, for example, when
you’re on a plane and want to look at your calendar. You can also turn
off your smartphone’s screen without turning off your smartphone’s
wireless features.
1. Press Power/End to wake up the screen.
2. Briefly press Power/End to turn off the screen.
