To ignore an IM call:
• Press the Ignore soft key to close the IM pop-up. The IM session is added to the session list in the
hold state and this IM chat session is added to the IM History list as an unread entry.
To end an IM call without responding:
• Press the End key to close the IM pop-up and add the IM session to the IM history list for that user
as an unread entry. The IM session is not placed on hold and will not display in the Session
Manager.
To allow an IM pop-up to expire:
• If you take no action during an IM pop-up annunciation, the pop-up annunciation will terminate
after 20 seconds and the alerting IM session will display in the Session Manager as a held session.
To end an IM session:
Press the End key.
• When you terminate the IM chat by pressing the End key while the IM chat window is active, the
IM chat window closes, and the session is stored in the IM history List.
• When you terminate the IM chat by pressing the End key while the IM chat cell is highlighted and
on hold or alerting, the cell is closed and the chat is stored in the IM history List.
To exit an IM session without ending it:
Do one of the following:
• Press the Home key to place the chat on hold in the Session Manager and display the Home
screen.
• Press the Back key to place the chat on hold and display the Session Manager. If you entered the
IM chat from the IM history list, the IM history list will display, not the Session Manager.
• Press the Start key to place the chat on hold in the Session Manager and display the Dialer.
To open an IM chat window during an existing non-IM call:
• Open the Dialer to locate the IM contact. Press the OK key to put any existing non-IM call on hold
and open an IM Chat window.
Only one IM Chat can be active at any given time. If you have a chat on hold in the Session
Manager and use the Dialer to start a new IM chat session, the old session will be
terminated. Any unfinished user entry will be discarded and the session will be appended
to the IM History. A new chat window will open for the new chat.
