Section 3: Menu Navigation
This section explains the menu navigation for your phone. The
a897 has done away with the need for navigation wheels or
keypads. The a897 is completely navigable by either an
on-screen touch or scroll.
•
Touching an on-screen option activates the feature.
•
Long menu list can be easily viewed by either using your fingertip to
scroll either up or down the on-screen list, or pressing the volume
keys up or down.
Menu Navigation
You can tailor the phone’s range of functions to fit your needs
using both menus and widgets. Menus, sub-menus, and features
can be accessed by scrolling through the available on-screen
menus. The a897 originally has three main menus but you can
add two more main menus for a total of five.
