NeoPoint™ 1600 User’s Guide 111
Did you know... you can lock your NeoPoint phone so that no one can use your
phone (except to call numbers on your Emergency List)?
By using the Locking the Phone feature in Quick Mode, you can lock the phone so
that no unauthorized use of your phone is allowed. This prevents anyone from
making calls, accessing information on your phone, including contacts,
appointments, etc., except to place outgoing calls to numbers on your
Emergency List. Refer to “Locking the Phone” on page 67 for more information.
Creating an Emergency List allows anyone to place a call to a number on your list
when your phone is locked. Your Emergency List can have up to four numbers.
These numbers can include: 911, police, your home, etc. Refer to “Creating and
Editing an Emergency List” on page 83 for more information.
Did you know... you can set your NeoPoint phone to not send or receive signals?
Your NeoPoint phone has a mode that allows it to function solely as a personal
digital assistant (PDA). PDA mode blocks the phone from making or receiving
any type of signal and forwards all calls to voicemail. This allows you to work on
your contacts, schedule and notes in areas where cellular calls are not permitted.
For more information on setting your NeoPoint phone to PDA Mode, refer to
“Changing the Phone Mode” on page 68.
Did you know... your NeoPoint phone can spell words for you?
Your NeoPoint phone incorporates Tegic’s T9 text input mode which allows you
to minimize typing on the key pad. As you type in a word, the phone starts to give
any combination of key words. You can press the next key (or the zero button) to
show you the next possible word. Tegic is used to facilitate the storing of contact
numbers, notes etc. For more information on T9, refer to “T9 Mode” on page 32.
Did you know... you can set your NeoPoint phone to guard against accidentally
pressing keys while in your purse or pocket?
Your NeoPoint phone incorporates a feature call Keyguard. Keyguard is different
than locking your phone... it prevents your phone from accidentally pressing
unprotected keys, but is deactivated as soon as you open your flip. For more
information on setting Keyguard, refer to “Enabling Keyguard” on page 66.
