If you have not yet installed the synchronization software nor created a partnership, please do so by following the procedures in Chapter 5.

Tip To set up your company e-mail account so that you can access Outlook e-mail messages wirelessly, you must set up your device to synchronize via an over-the-air connection with your company's Exchange Server. For more information about synchronizing with your company e-mail server, see Chapter 8.

Set up a POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail account

Set up a POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail account on your device if you have an e-mail account from an Internet service provider (ISP) or other e-mail provider, or a web-based account such as Gmail, Yahoo! Mail Plus, etc. You can also add a work account that you access using a VPN server connection as a POP3/IMAP4 account.

1. Tap Start > Messaging > Setup E-mail.
2. Enter the E-mail address and Password for the e-mail account and select the Save password option. Tap Next.
3. Tap Next. E-mail Setup searches your device for preloaded e-mail configuration settings. If the device cannot find the server settings for the specified e-mail account, your device needs to connect to the Internet and try to download the settings. If it cannot find the settings online, you need to enter the settings manually.
4. Enter Your name and the Account display name and then tap Next.
5. In the Automatic Send/Receive list, choose how frequent you want e-mail messages to be automatically sent and downloaded on your device. Tap Finish.

Tip When you are using an e-mail domain name but hosted by a different e-mail provider (For example, the e-mail account "[e-mail]" is hosted by "email.com"), choose the Custom Domain option in the E-mail Setup wizard to manually set up the e-mail account.

To specify e-mail server settings

If Auto Setup is unsuccessful, contact your ISP or e-mail provider for the Incoming mail server and outgoing mail server settings so you can enter them on your device.

Other options that you can select include the following:

• Select the Outgoing server requires authentication check box, if required by your provider.
• If the outgoing e-mail server requires a different user name and password for sending e-mail, clear the Use the same user name and password for sending e-mail check box. You will be prompted to enter this information.
• Tap Advanced Server Settings, then select the Require SSL check boxes if your e-mail provider uses an SSL connection for more secured e-mail. From the Network connection list, select the data connection that you use for connecting to the Internet.

To customize download and format settings

Before you tap Finish when setting up your POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail account, you can tap Review all download settings to choose download options, message format, and other settings.

Options Description
Automatic Send/Receive	You can select a time interval for connecting to the Internet automatically to send and receive messages.

8.2 Working With Company E-mails

Your device gives you instant access to your company e-mails and lets you manage your messages easier. Direct Push, Fetch Mail, Remote e-mail search, and e-mail flags are just some of the tools you can use to manage your e-mails.

Note Some messaging features depend on the Microsoft Exchange Server version used in your company. Please check with your network administrator for the availability of these features.

Automatic synchronization through Direct Push

Direct Push technology (push e-mail feature) enables you to receive new e-mails on your device as soon as they arrive in your Inbox on the Exchange Server. With this feature, items such as contacts, calendar and tasks are also immediately updated onto your device when these items have been changed or new entries have been added on the Exchange Server. To make Direct Push work, you need to have a GPRS connection on your device.

You need to perform a full synchronization between your device and the Exchange Server first before Direct Push can be enabled.

A.2 Regulatory Notices

Regulatory Agency Identifications

For regulatory identification purposes, your product is assigned a model number of NEON300.

To ensure continued reliable and safe operation of your device, use only the accessories listed below with your NEON300.

The Battery Pack has been assigned a model number of NEON161.

Note This product is intended for use with a certified Class 2 Limited Power Source, rated 5 Volts DC, maximum 1 Amp power supply unit.

Federal Communications Commission Notice

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or TV reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or television technician for help.

Safety precautions for RF exposure

• Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories that do not contain any metal.
• Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate your local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals

Your device contains a radio transmitter and receiver. The radiated output power is far below the international radio frequency exposure limits. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by international standards bodies:

• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992
• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Report 86.1986
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
- Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in usage.

As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.

Your device has an internal antenna. Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the phone, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well as result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your country.

To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF energy is within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards; always use your device only in its normal-use position. Do not touch or hold the antenna area unnecessarily when placing or receiving a phone call. Contact with the antenna area may impair call quality and cause your device to operate at a higher power level than needed. Avoiding contact with the antenna area when the phone is IN USE optimizes the antenna performance and the battery life.

Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operation can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed

the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (for example, at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. Body-worn measurements were tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the device kept 1.5 cm from the body.

SAR Information

xxx W/Kg @ 1g (FCC)

Telecommunications & Internet Association (TIA) safety information

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:

• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn the phone OFF immediately.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider, or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Turn the phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
