It has a simple key layout with only four dedicated speed dial buttons for your outgoing calls so is simple to use. You can also receive incoming text messages.

Label each of the four buttons with names so that you can call family and friends quickly and simply. On the back there is an emergency button, which once pressed, will send a text message to your recipients as well as text your location and call the first number on your list.

The large screen enables you to adapt the display settings and increase the font size and background colour – making it more suited to you to your read requirements.

Orientation Position the phone so that the flat display screen and the number keypad are facing upwards with the number pad closest to you.

Starting at the very top of the phone and coming towards you there is a small centrally located hole to allow sound out from the loudspeaker.

Immediately below this hole there is the first flat dark surface, which is the display screen, and at the bottom of the screen there is a silver Doro logo. The display will show numbers and information in white text when the phone is switched on.

Next there are two rows of two buttons followed by 4 individual buttons running down the left hand side.

The first row has 2 adjacent rounded rectangular black buttons with white markings across their centre. These are the left and right function keys and their function

2 varies with use of menu options. Between the two buttons is a larger vertically oriented button that is the navigation up/down button.

The second row has two round buttons. The left hand one is green with a black angled telephone handset on it and the right hand button is red with a black horizontal handset with a line underneath. The green button is the Dial/Answer button and the red is the End/cancel button.

Following these two rows there are the four individual square buttons on the left hand side. These 4 black buttons have the letters A, B, C and D printed on them in white and are the 4 pre-set speed dial numbers. Pushing these buttons will display the preset number (if stored) ready for dialing.

To the right of these 4, A to D buttons is a large rectangular, slightly recessed area with a small cutaway on the right hand side. This is where one of the name slips, when completed, should be inserted after first removing the clear protective, flexible cover with a fingernail. Once the slip has been inserted replace the cover by inserting the small lugs on the cover into the holes on the case. To locate them on both sides it may be necessary to flex the cover slightly.

Between buttons B and C there is a small centrally located hole in the case to allow sound to reach the microphone.

Underside of the phone The battery cover forms the entire back of the phone and removing this gives access to the rechargeable battery bay and the SIM card tray. Immediately above the battery compartment in the centre is the Assistance button slightly depressed below the surface with a tactile surround. Above this button is the small metal grill for the loudspeaker.

Top Edge With the screen facing you, there are three sockets/buttons decreasing in size across the top edge. From left, there is a rubber cover over the USB charging socket; in the middle there is a rubber cover over the earpiece socket; on the right is the power button.

Left side With the phone facing upwards, on the left side edge there are three black buttons. The top two are the volume buttons with an up and down button. To scroll, press either the top one (Up) (+) or the bottom one (Down) (-). They are used to increase and decrease the volume and to step through menu options and other selections. The bottom button is the Menu button, which will display the list of menu options.

3 Bottom Edge On the bottom edge of the phone there are two small centrally positioned holes that can be used to fit a neck loop. On either side of these holes there are recesses for contacts, which enable the phone to be charged when sitting in the charging cradle.

Right side Towards the bottom corner of this side there is a 1cm wide notch which enables you to remove the back cover from the phone using a finger nail for leverage. Use the phone Get started Charge the phone CAUTION Only use the batteries, charger and accessories that have been approved for use with this particular model. Connecting other accessories may be dangerous and may invalidate the phones type approval and guarantee.

Tip: Use the cradle to charge your device.

You can use the cradle to charge your phone. This is the recommended option. Position the cradle so the notch in the phone cradle is facing away from you. On the large side facing you, in the centre of the bottom edge, there is a socket for the smaller end of the USB cable. Orient the cable so that the ridged side by the USB connector is upper most and insert it into the socket on the cradle. Do not force it into place. Connect the larger end of the USB cable into the socket on the underside of the power adaptor.

Alternatively, you can connect the USB cable directly to the phone via the socket on the top edge; the left most of the three sockets/buttons on that edge. Orient the smaller end of the USB cable so that the ridged side by the USB connector is towards the screen and insert the connector into the socket under the power socket cover.

Note! When you have fully charged the battery and disconnected the charger from the device, unplug the charger from the wall outlet to save energy.

Turn the phone on Press the power button on the right hand side of the top edge for 3 seconds.

4 Turn the phone off Press the power button on the right hand side of the top edge for 3 seconds to power the phone off. A question mark will appear on the screen and then press the left function button to turn the phone off.

Display When the phone is switched on the display shows a series of small graphic symbols on the top row. Starting from the right they are:

An X indicates no network coverage.  Ring/vibrate - a musical note symbol with two vertical wavy lines either side shows that the phone will both ring and vibrate.  Silent - a musical note symbol with a diagaonal line through it indicates silent. No ringtone or vibration for incoming calls.  Headset - A headphone symbol will appear if the headset is connected. This symbol will replace the ring/vibrate symbol.  Battery charge level - in the top right hand corner of the screen. It consists of a small battery shaped graphic with a combination of three white or black segments that change with battery charge level. Three black segments indicate full charge and three white segments means the battery is almost flat  Missed call – Green handset with an exclamation symbol.  Headphones – headset connected  Bluetooth symbol – Bluetooth enabled  Circle inside a square – GPS active  Egg timer inside a square – on-going safety timer
