to customize it. These functions are arranged in
menus and submenus, accessed using the two soft
keys, and . Each menu and submenu allows
you to view and alter the settings of a particular
function.
The roles of the soft keys vary, depending on the
current function you are using; the labels on the
bottom line of the display just above each key

Your phone’s modes
Standby mode
Standby mode is the most basic state of your
phone. The phone goes into Standby mode soon
after you turn it on, or whenever you briefly press
the key. When your phone is in Standby mode,
you will typically see the current time and date. If
you enter a phone number, you can press the
key to dial it, or press the
Save
soft key to save it
in the internal Phone book.
Press the key at any time to return to Standby
mode. Be careful; if you are on a call when you
press the key, your phone disconnects the call
and returns to Standby mode. Press the
C
key
several times or hold it to return to Standby mode
without ending the call.
Talk mode
You can place and answer calls only when your
phone is turned on. During a call, the phone is in
Talk mode. While you are in Talk mode, pressing
the
Menu
soft key gives you a list of options. See
page 34 for details on the options.
Power Save mode
Your phone comes with a power save feature that
will automatically be activated if your phone is
unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of
searching. While this feature is active, the phone’s
battery charge is conserved. To return to Standby
mode, press any key.
