Care of your phone
If your Vertu Constellation, or any of the accessories, are not working as they should,
contact your Vertu dealer.
General care
•
Always use your Vertu Constellation in the documented manner. Incorrect usage
may affect performance.
•
Do not attempt to open or disassemble your Vertu Constellation. The only part you
ever need to open is the SIM door. Your Vertu Constellation should only be
serviced by Vertu authorised personnel.
•
Do not mishandle or abuse your Vertu Constellation.
•
Use only Vertu approved accessories.
•
The supplied chargers are only intended for use with your Vertu Constellation. Do
not use them with any other device, as this could result in permanent damage to
the phone, battery, or charger.
•
Keep your Vertu Constellation and all parts and accessories out of the reach of
small children and pets.
•
Do not allow your Vertu Constellation or accessories to come into contact with
liquids or moisture, or dust and dirt.
8 Introduction
© 2011 Vertu. All rights reserved.
Do not expose your Vertu Constellation to extreme temperatures, as these may
cause the battery to stop working temporarily. Performance is particularly limited
in temperatures well below freezing.
•
Do not apply paint or other similar substances to your Vertu Constellation.
•
Only use a soft, clean cloth to clean your Vertu Constellation. Do not use
chemicals, detergents, abrasive substances, or any liquids. Use a cotton swab to
clean the camera lens.
Interference
•
If interference affects the performance of your Vertu Constellation, move away
from the source of the interference.
Battery
•
Your Vertu Constellation has an internal, non-removable battery. Do not attempt
to take it out of the phone. You should not leave it connected to the charger and
power source for longer than is necessary.
Materials
Your Vertu Constellation has been crafted from some of the finest materials, and care
needs to be taken to keep it in good condition.
•
Do not drop, knock, or rub your Vertu Constellation on or against hard surfaces.
•
Ceramics and sapphire are very hard materials, but are also brittle and can be
scratched by harder materials or objects. They can also be damaged if dropped.
Therefore, avoid contact with hard materials such as diamond jewellery, nail files,
abrasives, and mineral crystals.
•
All leather can be damaged and should be treated with care. Therefore, avoid
exposing your Vertu Constellation to extreme temperatures or water and high
humidity, and avoid contact with oily substances, make-up, and solvents.
•
Vertu metals are finished to a high standard, and care needs to be taken to
maintain their appearance. Therefore, you should avoid contact with sharp
objects, metal polishes, and chemicals such as solvents, alkaline and acid
solutions, cola-based drinks, and salt water. If contact occurs, wipe the surface
with a clean, soft cloth as soon as possible.

•
Select Menu > Vertu and Registration.
•
Select Call Concierge using the dedicated key.
•
Register at www.vertu.me.
•
Select any of the Vertu services on the phone.
Initial setup

Before you switch on your Vertu Constellation, make sure that you have inserted a
valid, active SIM card, and that you are in a location with cellular data connectivity.
2
Start up your Vertu Constellation, and launch the setup wizard.
3
The setup wizard takes you through the registration process. Once you have
entered your details, opted to activate the services, and accepted the terms and
conditions, the Vertu services are immediately available.
If you declined to activate the Vertu services, you can still use the phone. To gain
access to the services later on, go through the registration process again and opt
to activate the services.
If you are already a registered customer, enter your username and password.
4

Get started 17
© 2011 Vertu. All rights reserved.
The final part of setup allows you to create mailboxes from a list of mail service
providers, including @vertu.me if you have registered.
Select a mail service provider, and enter the requested details. The first mailbox is
automatically displayed in the Mail widget on the home screen to the immediate right
of the default home screen. This widget gives you quick access to the most recent
unread mail. To go to the inbox, select the title bar.
For each subsequent mailbox that you create, you need to add a Mail widget for it on
the home screen of your choice.
Tip: To add a new mailbox into an existing Mail widget, select
on the top right
of the widget. Select Create new mailbox, and follow the displayed instructions. The
new mailbox replaces the previous mailbox inside the widget.
Your Vertu Constellation has full compatibility with Microsoft Exchange Server,
allowing you to configure one of your mail accounts as a Mail for Exchange mailbox.
This gives you mobile access to the mail, calendar, contacts, and tasks on the account,
with the option to keep content fully synchronised.
You are asked during mail setup whether you want your corporate account to be used
as your Mail for Exchange mailbox. If you decide against this, a list of alternative mail
providers is displayed. If you select Vertu email from this list, your @vertu.me account
is used as your Mail for Exchange mailbox. Alternatively, you can select Other, enter
the mail address and password, and, if the associated provider is compatible, select
Mail for Exchange instead of POP/IMAP.
You can add further mailboxes as required. For each subsequent mailbox that you
create, you need to add a mail widget to the customisable home screen of your choice.

Vertu Constellation, you can run the setup wizard again.

Interactive home screen elements
About the default home screen
The default home screen acts as a gateway to the functions on your Vertu
Constellation:
•
The other home screens. There are two home screens on one side of the default
home screen that are dedicated to Vertu Select and City Brief. On the other side,
there is one home screen that provides access to the initial mailbox and a row of
shortcuts to Vertu's specially curated applications; and another home screen that
provides access to the application quick launch widget. These two home screens
are customisable so that you can add the applications and shortcuts that you use
the most.
You can also add a sixth, blank, home screen that is fully customisable.
When you are travelling, and wish to avoid roaming charges, to deactivate Vertu
Select or City Brief, select Menu > Settings and Vertu Settings.
•
The three most commonly used profiles – Silent, Offline, and General. To change
the profile, select the profile icon in the top left of the default view, and select a
different profile.
•
Connectivity and WLANs in the top right of the screen.
•
Four shortcuts at the bottom of the screen (and at the bottom of the two
customisable screens) that give you access to Contacts, Calendar, Messaging,
and Web.
•
Instant notifications of new mail, messages, and missed calls.
The default home screen has an interactive clock that automatically detects your
current time and availability, and provides access to your alarms and appointments.
If you are away from your regular time zone, the time at home is also shown on the
clock face, in digital format. Your current appointments are indicated by the arcs
around the clock, and your current alarms are indicated by red markers.
Tip: When you select a quadrant on the clock that contains one or more
appointments, the appointments are displayed in a pop-up window. Select the required
appointment to access the calendar.

missed calls, messages, voice mail, and calendar events.
Notification widget — You can add a Notification widget to one of your home screen
views. This displays your missed events.

a missed call or a new message. To define the events for which the light flashes, select
Menu > Settings and Phone > Notification lights > Notification light.

About positioning methods
Maps displays your location on the map using GPS, A-GPS, WLAN, or network (cell
ID) based positioning.
The global positioning system (GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system used for
calculating your location. Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is a network service that sends you
GPS data, improving the speed and accuracy of the positioning.
WLAN positioning improves position accuracy when GPS signals are not available,
especially when you are indoors or between tall buildings.
With network (cell ID) based positioning, the position is determined through the
antenna system your mobile device is currently connected to.
