3. Customizing Your Device
Your device is designed so you can set up many of its features to suit your preferences. Learn how in this
chapter:
The Settings Screens
You customize your device by selecting options listed on the settings screens. There are two types of settings
screens:
• Device-wide settings - From these screens you set device-wide preferences, such as application
shortcuts, sound profiles, key guard idle time, etc. To open these screens, press Jump to go to the Jump
screen, then press Menu and select the Settings submenus.
• Application-specific settings - From these screens you set application-specific preferences, such as call
forwarding options, browser home page, etc. To open these screens, press Jump to go to the Jump
screen, then select any application (Web Browser, Phone, Email, etc.). Once within an application, press
Menu and select Settings.
We recommend you step through the device Settings screens and then the application-specific Settings screens
to completely customize your device for your personal use. Use the tables below to guide you through the
screens.
