Getting started

This phone comes with the SIM card and battery already inserted and ready for use. If you however stop using the Fuss Free Phone service and wish to place a new SIM card or battery in, please follow these instructions.

SIM card

Insert/remove the SIM card

Remove the battery cover, ensuring the phone is switched off. Hold the phone face down in one hand with the flip screen closed and the back of the phone facing you. Using your other hand, locate the two recessed indentations near the top edge of the cover on the back of the phone. With your thumb pushing in on these slide the cover down toward the bottom of the case and lift the cover up and away.
With the back facing you and the hinge furthest away from you, the SIM-card slot is located in the top right corner of the battery bay and is accessible when the battery is removed.
With the brass coloured contacts of the SIM Card facing down and the cut off corner of the SIM-card positioned on the bottom right, slide the SIM-card into the SIM-card slot under the metal bridge piece, making sure it is pushed as far as it will go.
To remove the SIM card, push down with your thumb on the top of the SIM and ease it towards you until it comes out.
Re-insert the battery with the three battery contacts at the top left of the battery being inserted first. Replace the battery cover by placing it over the open back of the phone with the lugs locating in the recesses and sliding it up from the bottom until it clicks in to place.

SIM - Enter PIN

This function has not been activated with the SIM card originally supplied with the phone.
If it is displayed on screen when you switch the phone on, enter the 4-digit number that will come with your SIM card paperwork. As you enter the number the display will show stars instead of numbers.
Warning - if you enter the PIN number wrong three times then the phone will lock completely and you will have to contact your Network operator for an unlock code.
If there is no SIM card in the phone the display will show a single small square and an arrow pointing down and the switch on sequence will stop.
Please note: if you press the green call button with no SIM card in the phone, it will dial the emergency services.

Battery insertion

Remove the battery cover, ensuring the phone is switched off. Hold the phone face down in one hand with the flip screen closed and the back of the phone facing you. Locate the two indentations on the back cover and with your thumb pushing in on these slide the cover down toward the bottom of the case and lift the cover up and away.
Place the phone face down on a flat surface, with the battery cover removed and the battery bay closest to you. The flat, almost square battery has three brass coloured contacts and two locating lugs at the top end. Hold the battery so that you insert the battery into the bay, with the brass contacts positioned at the top left, and then press the battery flat into the bay. (The battery has a white side with writing on it and this side should face upwards).
Replace the battery cover by placing it over the open back of the phone and slide it up from the bottom until it clicks in place.

Memory card

The Doro 612 has the facility to use removable Micro SD memory cards to store pictures, sound and videos captured by the phone. A Micro SD card is not supplied with the phone and must be purchased separately if required.

Insert/remove the memory card

First, remove the battery cover as described in the previous section and remove the battery using a thumb nail under the bottom edge.
With the back facing you and the hinge furthest away from you, the memory card slot is located in the top left corner of the battery bay and is accessible only when the battery is removed.
With the brass coloured contacts of the Micro SD Card facing downwards on the left and the notched cut out on the top left, slide the card into the memory card slot moving it from right to left making sure it is pushed as far as it will go.
To remove the memory card, push down on it using your thumb and slide it from left to right.
Re-insert the battery with the three battery contacts at the top left of the battery being inserted first. Replace the battery cover by placing it over the open back of the phone and sliding it up from the bottom until it clicks in place.

Battery

Battery removal

Locate the two recessed indentations on the left and right hand side of the battery near the bottom edge. With a finger and/or thumb nail under the two small lugs pull the battery up and out of the battery compartment.

Charging the battery

When charging the battery for the first time, it is recommended that you charge it for at least three hours. Note, however, that the full battery capacity will not be reached until it has been charged three or four times.
The charger that is supplied with the phone consists of a three-pin charger plug and a length of cable with a micro USB connector on the end to plug into the phone. It is important that this connector is plugged in the correct way into the phone or desk stand to prevent damage. Note that this connector has a printed Doro logo and two tactile lines on the upper surface as well as the top of a triangular moulding nearest to the metal connections. Plug this connector into the socket on the right edge of the phone. Finally plug the three-pin charging unit into a mains socket and switch on.
When you start charging, the display will show a large rectangular battery symbol, which will appear to be filling from right to left and a red LED will flash every three seconds on the front of the phone. If the phone is switched on when charging it will also give an audible beep and a two-pin plug symbol will momentarily appear on the display when you start charging. When the charging lead is removed the same symbol with a diagonal line through it will momentarily appear. With the phone turned on, a small filling battery symbol will appear in the top right corner of the screen through the duration of charging.
Instead of plugging the charger directly in to the phone it is possible to place the closed phone into the supplied charging cradle with the front cover facing towards you. Plug the charger lead connector in to the socket on the back of this cradle.
The battery can only be charged in the phone and if it is totally flat it may take a few minutes of charge before it shows evidence of charging.
If you are not going to use the mobile phone for more than a month, it is recommended that you remove the rechargeable battery from the phone and store it safely.

Turning the phone on and off

Press and hold down the power on/off/end call button with the red telephone symbol for a few seconds, until the display and the keyboard backlight come on and you hear a series of audio tones. Switch on is complete when the Doro graphic animations on the display stop and the display shows the time. It can also show the name of the network provider if a SIM card is fitted and if the standby display has been set to include this.
To turn the phone off, press and hold the same power on/off/end call button. You will hear a beep and then be prompted on the screen with a large question mark and “POWER OFF” to confirm that you want to turn the phone off. Press the left soft button for “Yes” (or right soft button for “No”). You will then hear the turning off series of tones and the screen shows a Doro logo on the display which then goes blank.

Initial set-up

When you first turn on your phone on you will be asked whether you want to “Run Start up wizard?”. This provides you with the opportunity to choose your key settings immediately. Select No to skip or Yes to proceed. You will then be asked if you want to change the following settings; “Language”, “Time & Date”, “Ring tone”, “Ring volume”, “Text size” and “Theme”. Select “Yes” to amend these setting, and “No” to skip past the option.

Making and receiving phone calls

There are four ways to dial a number and make a phone call.

The display will show a telephone handset symbol with an animated arrow pointing away from it. It will also show the number you are dialling at the bottom of the display. Remember to use the full STD code. If you are dialling from outside the UK then add a plus + symbol for international dialling by pressing the star button on the number keypad twice quickly then add the international dialling code for the country you are dialling.

You will then be taken to a screen where the cursor is prompting you to enter a name alongside an icon of a person’s head. Using the letters on the keypad enter the name. E.g. to enter SUE press the 7 key four times for the S, then the 8 key twice for the U and finally the 3 key twice for the E. (Use the right button on the top row to "Clear" if you make a mistake). Press “Save” (left soft button) to save this name and number and you will then be taken back to where you originally entered the number.

Speed dial

The phone has three dedicated Speed dial buttons labelled A, B and C on the third row below the display. It is also possible to store Speed dials against the nine number buttons 2 through to 9 and 0. Please see the section titled Storing Speed dial numbers for information on how to do this. To dial any stored Speed dial number press and hold down one of these nine Speed dial buttons or the dedicated A, B, C buttons. The name of the contact you are dialling will appear on the display while the phone dials that number.
