NOTE: Proximity Sensor• When receiving and making calls, the proximity sensor automatically turns
the backlight off and locks the touch screen by sensing when the phone is near your ear. This extends battery life and prevents you from unintentionally activating the touch screen during calls.
WARNINGPlacing a heavy object on the phone or sitting on it can damage the display and touch screen functions. Do not cover the proximity sensor with screen protectors or any other type of protective film. This could cause the sensor to malfunction.

IMPORTANT• Some applications, such as Calendar, work only with the first Google Account
you add. If you plan to use more than one Google Account with your phone, be sure to sign into the one you want to use with such applications first. When you sign in, your contacts, Gmail messages, Calendar events, and other information from these applications and services on the web are synchronised with your phone. If you don't sign into a Google Account during setup, you will be prompted to sign in or to create a Google Account the first time you start an application that requires one, such as Gmail or Play Store.
