							Dynamic Noise Suppression from Audience™
Your phone is equipped with an advanced voice processing chip that delivers clear mobile calls by suppressing background noise,
intermittent sounds (like a siren or nearby conversation), and echoes, allowing you to hear and be heard nearly anywhere.
How Does It Work?
Based on the intelligence of the human hearing system, the technology:
Captures, evaluates and distinguishes all the sound signals surrounding your phone, and the person youre speaking with.
Then isolates the primary voice in conversation and filters out the background noise - so the person youre calling hears only your voice, without
disturbing background noise.
Dynamically equalizes and adjusts voice volume to optimize your calling experience, so you can hear clearly and dont need to speak louder to overcome
surrounding noise.
The noise suppression technology is built-in and already enabled in your new mobile phone. So its ready to provide unsurpassed voice
clarity with every call.

							Getting Started 4
Section 1:  Getting Started
This section explains how to start using your phone by first
configuring your hardware, activating your service, and then
setting up your voice mail.
Setting Up Your Phone
Prior to use it is necessary to install both the battery and SIM into
their corresponding internal compartments. The microSD™ card
slot is also located in this same internal area.
1.Remove the battery cover by placing your thumbnail into
the slot at the bottom of the phone (1). If you have fragile
nails, use a pointed object.
2.Push the cover forward (2) and then lift up and away from
the phone (3).
Installing the SIM Card
When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are provided with
a plug-in SIM card loaded with your subscription details, such as
your PIN, available optional services, and many others features.
Important!:The plug-in SIM card information and its contacts can be easily
damaged by scratching or bending, so be careful when handling,
inserting, or removing the card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach
of small children.

©Carefully slide the SIM card into the SIM card socket (as
shown) until the card locks into place.
Make sure that the card’s gold contacts face into the phone and
that the upper-left angled corner of the card is positioned as shown.
Note:If the card is not inserted correctly, the phone does not detect the SIMcard. Re-orient the card back into the slot if the SIM is not detected.
Installing the Memory Card
Your device lets you use a microSD™(SD) or microSDHC™card
to expand available memory space.
Note:Your phone has been tested to support up to a 32GB memory card.
©Push the microSD card into the slot until it clicks (as
shown).
Make sure the microSD’s gold contact pins face downward and the
card is securely inserted.
Warning!:Once you install a secure digital card, it is formatted to work onlywith your phone. It cannot be used with other devices.
For more information, refer to“Windows Phone 7 and microSD
Cards”on page 10.
