Install the memory card and SIM card Firstly, make sure your Xda Orbit is turned off before you install any cards. Then remove the battery by sliding the battery cover latch. You'll find this at the bottom of your Xda Orbit. If the battery is inside, simply remove it with your finger by lifting the upper right side of the battery slot. Slide the SIM card holder downward to unlock it, then lightly flip it open. Then open the memory card holder. 2. Insert the memory* and SIM cards Now gently slide both the memory SD card and the SIM card into their holders, with their gold contacts facing down. (The cut-off corner of the SIM card should mirror the corner in the SIM card slot). Press down the memory card holder to close and lock it in place. Then close the SIM card holder and slide it upwards to lock it in place. Finally replace both the battery (see instructions in the next section) and the battery cover. * There is no memory card contained in the standard box. 2 3 3. Install and charge the battery You will receive the new batteries partially charged. But before you start using your Xda Orbit, you will need to install and fully charge the battery. To install the battery, remove the battery cover first and insert the battery. The gold connectors on the battery should meet with the row of connectors on the left side of the battery slot. Insert the left side of the battery first, then gently push it down into place (there will be a small click as it is locked into position) and replace the battery cover. Lights on the LED indicator on your Xda Orbit will show the battery status: When your Xda Orbit is off a solid amber light shows when it is charging When your Xda Orbit is on, a solid amber light and a charging icon on the Today screen will show when it is charging After the battery has been fully charged, a green light and full battery icon appears on the Today screen. Top Tip: Some batteries perform best after several full charge and discharge cycles. There's two ways to charge the battery: ­ you can connect your Xda Orbit directly to an electrical outlet using the AC adapter ­ you can plug the sync cable to the USB port on your PC and to the sync connector on your Xda Orbit. 4 5 4. Turn on and set up for the first time Turn on your Xda Orbit by pressing the power button on the right-hand edge. A welcome screen will appear. It will prompt you to Tap the screen to set up your Xda Orbit. You can do this by following the on-screen instructions. Your Xda Orbit will start to set itself up and add applications supplied by O2. After about two minutes, you'll see a customisation screen which lets you tailor some options on your Xda Orbit. These are: Basic: configures your connection settings and adds extra touches so that your Xda is even easier to use. We recommend you to use this setting as standard. Corporate: a tailored solution from O2. No settings or O2 enhancements are installed ­ this option is only available if your Xda Orbit is supplied by your IT manager. Now choose your country and connection settings. Tap OK to complete your set up. Your Xda Orbit will then restart itself. 5. Check the battery power Tap the battery level icon on the Today screen. The power settings screen will open and display the current battery power level. A warning message will show if the battery power is very low. If you see this, you should immediately save your data by synchronising with your PC, or back-up data on a secondary storage card, and then turn off your Xda Orbit. Do not restart it until you have connected it to the power adapter. Press power again to turn off your Xda Orbit. 6. Enter your PIN When your Xda Orbit restarts, it may ask you to enter the PIN for your SIM. Tap in your PIN and select Enter. If you're an O2 Ireland customer, please enter the PUK code supplied with your SIM or call Customer Service on 1909 6 7 Top tip: you'll block your SIM card if you enter the wrong PIN three times. This means you won't be able to make or receive any calls, texts or picture messages. Don't worry ­ you can easily sort this out by contacting your service provider. They'll unblock it for you right away. 7. Synchronise with your PC or laptop Microsoft® ActiveSync® lets you synchronise information on your Xda Orbit with your PC such as Inbox, Calendar, contacts and tasks within Microsoft Outlook®. The software is already installed on your Xda Orbit but you will need to install it on your PC if you haven't already. To do this, insert the Getting Started CD included in your Xda Orbit box into the CD drive of your PC and follow the simple on-screen wizard. When it's installed just connect the USB cable to your PC and start synchronising. Now that you're set up, let's get going! 8 9 Section 2 Using your Xda Orbit Mobile phone Use your Xda Orbit just like a mobile phone to keep in contact, get in touch with the office or send text and picture messages.
