Note: Instructions in this manual are based on default settings and may vary from your device depending on the software version on your device and any changes to the device’s settings. Note: Unless stated otherwise, instructions in this user manual start with the device unlocked, at the Home screen. All screen images in this manual are simulated. Actual displays may vary depending on the software version of your device and any changes to the device’s settings. Special Text In this manual, some text is set apart from the rest.
