How to Turn on a Sidekick Phone
- 1). Attach the small, rounded end of the included charger to your phone's power port, located at the top of the device.
- 2). Plug the other end of the power cord into a standard wall jack. This should awaken the battery to allow you to turn on the phone. If you have already awakened the battery and used the phone, you may need to leave the phone on charge for a while before turning on the device. Full charge can be achieved in four hours.
- 3). Press and hold the On/Off button for a three seconds. The On/Off button is located to the left of the "Z" key on the keyboard and looks like a circle with a vertical line in the center. The device will power on, but may require several seconds to complete the process.
