For instructions on using your phone's buttons, charger, battery, and other hardware features, check the printed Quick Reference Guide that came with your phone.

The first time you turn on the phone, you'll see a Welcome screen.

• To choose a different language, touch the menu.
• To set up your phone, touch Start and follow the instructions.

A series of screens takes you through the setup process. If you already have Gmail, use your Gmail address and password when asked. If you don't have Gmail or any other Google Account, go ahead and create one.

As you go through the setup screens, you have the option to skip some steps.
