Getting your device ready  
Installing the SIM card and battery  
Before you can make a phone call using your P525, you need to install a Subscriber Identity  
Module (SIM) card. A SIM card contains your phone number, subscriber details, phonebook,  
and additional phone memory.  
Your P525 comes with a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery.  
New batteries come partially discharged and should be fully charged before using them. They  
generally do not reach their rated capacity until they have been charged and discharged at  
least four (4) times. We recommended that new batteries be charged overnight even though  
they may indicate that the charge is complete after a few hours. Sometimes charging may  
stop during the initial charge and it is necessary to remove the battery for approximately  
fifteen (15) minutes and then put it back on charge.  
CAUTION:  
Use only an ASUS qualified battery.  
To install a SIM card and battery:  
1. Remove the battery compartment over.  
NOTE:  
If the device is on, it automatically turns off  
after you open the battery compartment.  
1ꢄ  
2. Remove the battery.  
3. Insert the SIM card with its gold  
contacts facing down and the notched  
corner oriented to the upper left corner  
of the slot as shown.  
4. Replace the battery into the  
compartment with its copper contacts  
aligned to the copper conductor on the  
device.  
5. Replace battery compartment cover.

Charging the battery  
The bundled battery pack is shipped partially charged. Charge the battery up to four (4) hours  
before using for the first time.  
To charge battery:  
1. Connect the AC adapter plug to the system connector at the bottom of the device.  
2. Connect the AC power plug to a grounded wall socket or power strip.  
NOTE:  
The notification LED turns red and charging battery icon appears on the status bar indicating that the battery is  
charging.  
• If your battery gets totally discharged, you need to recharge it for at least twenty minutes before you can turn it  
back on.

Using ActiveSync™  
ActiveSync™ allows you to synchronize data in your device with data in your computer.  
ActiveSync can also synchronize over a wireless or cellular network with Microsoft Exchange  
Server, provided that your cellular phone service or company is running Microsoft Exchange  
Server with Exchange ActiveSync. When synchronized directly with Exchange Server, you can  
stay up to date even when your PC is turned off.  
During synchronization, ActiveSync compares the data in your device with the data in your  
computer or Exchange Server, and updates all data with recent changes.  
You can select and synchronize data in the following locations using ActiveSync:  
• Contacts  
• Calendar  
• Email  
Tasks  
• Notes  
• Favorites  
• Files  
• Media  
You can also exchange data between your computer and device without synchronizing.  
ActiveSync is already installed in your device, but before you can synchronize data with  
your computer, you must first install ActiveSync in your computer. Install ActiveSync from the  
Microsoft companion CD that came with your device package.  
After you have installed ActiveSync, set up a sync relationship between your device and your  
computer. ActiveSync recognizes your device and automatically transfers the synchronization  
settings you have in your device.  
ꢁꢄ  
If you wish to synchronize your device with Exchange Server through your company or service  
provider, obtain the name of the Exchange Server, user name, password, and domain name  
from your network administrator before starting the Sync Setup Wizard.  
To install and configure ActiveSync in your computer:  
1. Insert the Microsoft companion CD that came with your device package.  
2. Follow succeeding screen instructions.  
3. After the setup is complete, the Sync Setup Wizard automatically starts when you

Using WLAN (IEEE 80ꢀ.11b)  
Introduction  
WLAN (IEEE 802.11b), refers to certain types of wireless local area network (WLAN) that  
use specifications in the 802.11 family. Created by the Wi-Fi Alliance, a nonprofit international  
association to certify interoperability of wireless local area network products. Any device  
tested and approved by the Wi-Fi Alliance are certified as interoperable with each other even  
if they are from different manufacturers.  
Activating WLAN in your device  
To activate WLAN in your device:  
1. Tap Start > Settings > Connections tab then tap the Wi-Fi Manager icon.

You can also turn Wi-Fi ON or OFF from the Today screen:  
1. Tap the Wi-Fi icon  
or  
on the status bar.  
2. From the pop-up callout, tap Turn on Wi-Fi.  
NOTE:  
• When WLAN is used simultaneously with the GPRS, the latter will get signal priority. We recommend not to use  
WLAN and GPRS at the same time.  
• We recommend not to use WLAN and the Bluetooth function at the same time. Disturbance in data transmission is  
possible since both use the same wireless channel.  
• The WLAN and USB connections can not be used at the same time.  
• When the battery power is less than 20% the device prompts a warning message whether to continue using WiFi or  
not. Tap “Yes” to continue using or “No” to disconnect. In any case, we recommend that you plug the power adapter  
immediately to avoid losing data.
