Turning your iPhone On and Off

iPhone
To turn on your iPhone, press the sleep/ wake button at the top of the iPhone (Shown circled here in red on the left). After a moment, the apple logo will appear, and then you'll get the unlock screen. Slide the arrow button to the right to unlock your iPhone and get to the home screen, Which is pretty much your main jumping off point to all the different things the iPhone can do. If you want to turn your iPhone completely off(you won't be able to use any iPhone functions), just press-and-hold the Sleep/ Wake button for a few seconds until the red Slide to Power Off button appears. TO shut down, Just take your finger, press lightly on that red button, and slide it to the right. Your screen will turn black, you'll see a small round status icon for just a moment, then your iPhone will power off.

iTips: Canceling the Shutdown
if you get to the "power down" screen and then decide you didn't want to actually turn off your iPhone after all, just tap the cancel button and it will go back to the screen you were on. If you do nothing for about 30 seconds, that will also cancel the shutdown.
