  1. Earpiece Lets you hear callers and automated prompts.

  2. Proximity sensor Senses proximity toward other objects (such as your head) so that tap commands are not accidentally activated during a call. It also employs an ambient sensor which measures the surrounding light and adjusts the LCD brightness to provide a vivid screen.

    NOTE
    • Do not block the sensor or near the sensor to avoid problems with the touchscreen.

    • When receiving and making calls, the proximity sensor automatically turns the backlight off and locks the touchscreen by sensing when the phone is near your ear. This extends battery life and prevents you from unintentionally activating the touchscreen during calls.

  3. QuickTap bar Provides icons for quick, one-touch access to the apps you use most often.

    NOTE

    You can change the icons in the QuickTap Bar to suit your needs. To reposition, add, or remove an icon, see Changing the QuickTap Bar.

  4. Home key Press to return to the Home screen (or your default Home screen panel from any of the Home screen extension panels). You can also press it to wake your phone from screen timeout. Press and hold it to display recently used apps with access to the Task Manager app.

    NOTE

    The Home key LED will illuminate when you have pending notification(s).

  5. Back key Tap to return to the previous screen. It also closes pop-up items such as menus, dialog boxes, and the on-screen keyboard.

  6. Menu key Tap to open an Options menu with options that affect the current screen or app. This only applies when available, depending on the screen or app.

  7. Home screen Displays all of the items needed to operate your phone including icons for app access, widgets, and the Status Bar (with status icons) allowing simple touch access to all of its functions and features.

    WARNING

    Placing a heavy object on the phone or sitting on it can damage the LCD and touchscreen functions. Covering the proximity sensor with a protective film could cause the sensor to malfunction.
