Using the applications
When the cover is opened, the application which
was active when you closed the cover, appears in
the same state. However, if you have made or an-
swered a voice call via the phone interface and
switch to the communicator interface by open-
ing the device cover, the Telephone application
activates automatically, see chapter 4 "Tele-
phone".
To switch to another application, press the cor-
responding application button. You can do this
even during an active call.
Note: You need not "exit" any application before
starting another. All inactive applications are run
in the background until they are activated again.
However, if the battery is removed or completely
discharged, all data will be saved, but the appli-
cations return to their default states.
Note: Information need not be specifically saved
(there is no "Save" command). When you switch
applications, press the Close command button or
close the device cover, all data will be stored au-
tomatically.
