Proximity sensor

When receiving and making
calls, this sensor automatically
turns the backlight off and locks
the touch keypad by sensing
when the phone is near your
ear. This extends battery life and
prevents the touch keypad from
activating unintentionally during
calls.

P500, Press the power key to
lock your phone. This helps
prevent accidental presses and
saves battery power.

replaced with the lock screen to
conserve the battery.
- If there are any programs
running when you lock your
phone, they may be still
running in lock mode. It is
recommended to exit all
programs before entering
18
the lock mode to avoid
unnecessary charges. (e.g.,
phone call, web access and
data communications)

on the screen.
