2. Getting Connected
This section will help you understand the ins and outs of
charging and using your battery.
Attaching your battery
Simply place the battery
in the grooves on the
back of your phone. Then
slide the battery upward
until it clicks.
Note: Use only those
batteries approved
by the phone
manufacturer and
recharge your
battery only with the chargers approved by the
manufacturer.
See “Important Battery Information” on page 9.
Charging your new battery
Your phone can be used with either a rechargeable Li-Ion
or NiMH battery. Note that a new battery’s full
performance is achieved only after two or three complete
charge and discharge cycles.
With your phone powered
on or off, connect the lead
from the charger to the
bottom of your phone.
You can also place your
phone on the charging
stand (with the stand
connected to a standard
120V AC outlet via either the ACP-7U or ACP-9U AC/DC
adaptors).
When the battery begins charging, your phone will beep
once and the battery strength indicator on the right side
of the display will begin to scroll after a few seconds.
6180i Phase A7
11/6/00 2:00pm
If your phone displays Not charging, charging is
suspended. Check that the battery is connected only to an
approved charging device. If the battery is very hot or
cold, wait for a while; charging will automatically resume
after the battery is restored to its normal operating
temperature. If charging still fails, contact your dealer.
When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the power
source. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for
longer than a week, since overcharging may shorten its life.
Important: If left unused, a fully charged battery will
discharge itself over time.
When is a good time to charge?
Actually, you can charge anytime. If you have a NiMH
battery, you should allow it to completely discharge once
in a while.
When your phone beeps once and displays Battery low,
you only have a couple of minutes of talk time remaining.
The repetition rate of these battery-low warnings depend
on the remaining battery capacity and the battery
condition. These warnings are more frequent when you’re
in a call.
Note: The phone will not give you the warning tone under certain
conditions. See “Warning and game tones” on page 87.
Once all the power has drained from your battery, you’ll
hear three beeps with the message Recharge battery on
your display. At this point, your phone will switch itself
off and you’ll need to recharge your battery.
When is charging complete?
When the charge indicators stop scrolling, your
phone is considered fully charged. However, a
slight increase in charge may occur if your phone
is left connected to the charger for a couple more
hours. This is called “trickle charge” or
“maintenance charge.”
6180i Phase A8
11/6/00 2:00pm
Charging times depend on the type of battery and
charger used.
For approximate charging and operating times, see “Batteries” on
page 105.
Can you make calls while charging?
Yes, you can. But your battery may not charge while a call
is in progress (depending on which charger you are
using). Charging should resume once you end the call.
See "Chargers and other accessories" on page 106 for more
information.
Discharging NiMH batteries
A NiMH battery lasts longer and performs better if you
fully discharge it from time to time. To discharge the
battery, leave your phone switched on until the battery is
drained. The phone will display several messages that the
battery is low and that you need to recharge it; just
ignore them.
You can also use the battery discharge feature of any
approved accessory available for your phone. Do not
attempt to discharge the battery by any means other
than those just described.
Removing the battery
Note: Switch off the phone before removing the battery!
Press and hold the
1.
button at the top
of the battery.
2. Slide the battery
toward the bottom of the phone.
3. Lift the battery off
the phone.
Important Battery Information
• The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of
6180i Phase A9
11/6/00 2:00pm
times but it will eventually wear out. When the operating
time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter
than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
• Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer
and recharge your battery only with the chargers
approved by the manufacturer. When a charger is not in
use, disconnect it from the power source. Do not leave the
battery connected to a charger for longer than a week,
since overcharging may shorten its life. If left unused a
fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.
• (NiMH batteries only) For optimal operation, discharge the
battery from time to time by leaving your phone switched
on until it turns itself off. You can also use the battery
discharge feature of any approved accessory available for
your phone. Do not attempt to discharge the battery by
any other means.
• Temperature extremes will affect the ability of your
battery to charge: allow it to cool down or warm up first.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• Never use any charger or battery which is damaged or
worn out.
• Do not short circuit the battery. Accidental short
circuiting can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip, or
pen) causes direct connection of the + and - terminals of
the battery (metal strips on the back of the battery), for
example when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or
purse. Short circuiting the terminals may damage the
battery or the connecting object.
• Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a
closed car in summer or winter conditions, will reduce the
capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep
the battery between 59º F and 77º F (15º C and 25º C).
A phone with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not
work, even when the battery is fully charged. NiMH
batteries’ performance is particularly limited in
temperatures below 14º F (-10º C). Li-Ion batteries’
performance is particularly limited in temperatures below
32º F (0º C).
• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with any local
regulations.
Cool Features
All the features in your phone are cool. It’s just that some
6180i Phase A10
11/6/00 2:00pm
are cooler than others!
For example, did you know that you can lock the keys on
your phone to prevent accidental key presses and phone
calls? Or that you can call someonewith the touch of a
single button? You can also stop your phone from ringing
withouteven answering the call.
These are just some of the many Cool Features you’ll find
in your phone. Look for theicon throughout this
owner’s manual to find them.
6180i Phase A11

3. Using Your Phone
The first few days you have your phone, play with it to
learn how the menu and submenu system works. The
more you learn how to access these menus and
submenus, the more fun you’ll have with your phone.
This section describes the different methods of using your
phone menus and submenus.
What is the ‘start screen’?
The start screen appears when you first turn your phone
on, in its idle state.
Anytime you want to get to the start screen, press ,
except during a call (unless you want to hang up).
CAUTION: If you press when the phone is
requesting input (for example, a setting, phone number,
name, etc.), the phone displays the start screen and the
input is not saved.
Navigating tools
Softkeys
Your phone has two softkeys that
appear below the display. Their
current function is indicated by the
words appearing above them.
Simply press the corresponding key
under the choice you wish to select.
This illustration shows the phone at the start screen. The
start screen displays Menu on the left and Names on the
right. Menu allows you to access your phone’s menus and
submenus. Names allows you to access your phone book.
Note: See “Using Shortcuts” on page 14 and “Phone book” on
page 64.
Scroll key
Use the scroll key to navigate through your phone’s
6180i Phase A12
11/6/00 2:00pm
menus and submenus. You can also use it to scroll
through names and numbers in your phone book.
Also, when editing names and numbers (for example,
numbers in your phone book), you may notice a cursor
flashing within the name or number. Pressing the scroll
key up or down moves the cursor within the text,
allowing you to insert letters, numbers, or special
characters via the keypad.
Note: See “Entering text and numbers” on page 42 for more
details.
Scroll bar
When you access your phone’s menu and
submenus, you will notice a scroll bar at the far
right of the screen. This bar indicates where you
are in the menu structure; each “tab” on the bar
represents a different menu item.
For example, press Menu once. The scroll bar appears
with the first (top) tab displayed. A different tab appears
each time you pressorto move up and down
through the menu structure. The scroll bar works the
same way with submenus.
Scrolling through the main menu
At the start screen, press Menu. Then scroll to the desired
menu item.
Press Select, Options or OK (whichever appears) to enter
submenus and to choose options.
Press Exit or Quit to exit the present menu or Back to go
back one level.
Tip: Pressing the key returns you to the start
screen.
Menu and submenu numbering
When you scroll to a menu or submenu, the menu
number and/or submenu number appears on the display
above the scroll bar. If you become familiar with these
6180i Phase A13
11/6/00 2:00pm
numbers, you can use them as shortcuts for accessing
different menus.
For example, when you scroll to Menu 2 (Call log) the
number 2 appears in the top right-hand corner of the
display. If you scroll to Menu 4 (Settings), submenu 3
(Security settings), your phone will display 4-3 in the
top right-hand corner.
Note: See “Summary of Menu Items and Shortcuts” on page 15
for a list of your phone’s features along with their menu
locations.
Also, see “Using Shortcuts” on page 14.
Using Shortcuts
Now that you know about shortcuts, use them as a quick
and easy way to access a menu without having to scroll
through other menus. For example, to display the Dialed calls menu (shortcut 2-3), press Menu
Note: When entering a shortcut that begins with “1”, you must
first press followed by “1” and any other number(s).
For example, to display the Inbox menu (
.
0-1-1-2), press
Menu .
When entering a shortcut, don’t wait more than a
moment between each key press.
For a summary of your phone’s menu structure, see “Summary of
Menu Items and Shortcuts” on page 15.
Help Text
If you’re not sure how a feature works, wait just a few
seconds and help text will automatically appear for most
of your phone’s features. Press More to see the next page
of the text or Back to exit the help text. After a while, the
help text will disappear by itself.
You have purchased a powerful phone, with lots of
features. Read this section for some very basic
information on how to use your phone.
A more comprehensive description of your phone is
covered in “Your Phone A to Z” starting on page 22.
Switching the phone on and off
Press and hold the key for two seconds to switch the
phone on or off.
Switching off with the key
Quickly press the key (Switch off! will appear,
highlighted) then press OK.
Warning: Do not switch on the phone when wireless phone use is
prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.
Note: See “Safety At A Glance” on page 5 for more information.
Getting a strong signal
For best results, fully extend the antenna. Your phone
operates on radio waves, and the quality of radio
reception depends on the strength of the radio signal in
your area. This radio coverage is maintained by a wireless
network and the quality of calls on a wireless phone
depends on the strength of the wireless radio signal.
Note: TIP ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: As with any other radio
transmitting device, do not touch the antenna
unnecessarily when the phone is switched on. Contact with
the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone
to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.
If your phone does not detect service at power up, the
message Searching for service will be displayed.
The phone will continue to search for available service for
15 minutes, at which time it will display No service if
none is found. The phone will periodically continue to
search for service.
6180i Phase A18
11/6/00 2:00pm
Note: The phone will not work in analog mode while searching for
digital service.
Checking signal strength
When at the start screen (see page 14) or in a
call, the strength of the radio signal is
indicated by the signal indicators on the left
side of your phone’s display. These indicators
will move up as the strength of the signal
increases and down as it decreases.
Increasing your phone’s signal may be easy. Try moving
your phone slightly, or move towards a window if you’re
calling from inside a building.
Making a call
Your cellular phone does not have a dial tone. Simply
enter the phone number (including area code, as needed)
and press . Hold the phone as you would any other
telephone, with the antenna pointed up and over your
shoulder.

Minibrowser
Note: This feature is available only if your service provider's
network supports wireless internet access. Your service
provider may also require that you subscribe to this
additional service. For more information, contact your
service provider.
About the Minibrowser
Warning: Your phone must be switched on to use the Minibrowser.
Do not switch on the phone when wireless phone use is
prohibited.
Warning: Emergency Key 9 is disabled while you are in a
Minibrowser session.
The Minibrowser lets you browse the internet for
information such as stock quotes and weather. Browsing
via the phone is not like browsing using a PC. Site
providers usually present only the critical aspects of their
site to wireless phone users, so they have removed most
graphics.
When you start the Minibrowser and connect to a
network, two icons appear in the display:
Minibrowser icon (you are in a Minibrowser
session)
Active call icon (you are being billed accordingly)
After a certain period of inactivity, the Minibrowser
disconnects from the network. For this reason, you may
find that you are billed for several network connections
6180i Phase A53
11/6/00 2:00pm
within a single session. This is normal and is designed to
minimize your bill. Rates will vary according to your
billing plan.
When the Minibrowser disconnects from the network,
the active call icon () disappears, but the
Minibrowser icon () remains. While you are in the
Minibrowser you can still access pages stored in memory
without being connected to the Internet. However, if you
navigate to a page that is not stored in memory, a new
Minibrowser session begins and you'll be billed
accordingly.
Launching the Minibrowser
The first time you launch the Minibrowser, you go
through a security setup process that takes 3 to 5
minutes (follow the on-screen prompts).
1. From the start screen, press Menu, then scroll to

mind you that you may be billed for the connection
time. (You can disable this message. See ‘Disable

Send own caller ID with next call
In most service areas, when you call someone, their caller
ID system allows them to see your name and phone
number. Your phone is set to automatically allow this
information to be seen. Before you make a call, you can
choose to prevent this information from being seen. This
is sometimes referred to as “blocking caller ID”.
Warning: While roaming, you may not be able to block caller ID.
Note: Before you can activate this feature, you should first store
the feature code given to you by your service provider.
Otherwise, this feature may not appear in the menu or
function properly. Check with your service provider to
confirm if the feature code has been pre-programmed for
you. See “Network feature setting” on page 61 for more
details.
This feature works on a per-call basis, so you must

System selection
About selecting a system
The System menu (Menu 5) allows you to customize the
way your phone chooses a system in which to operate
while you are “roaming” (using your phone outside of
your primary or “home” system). Your choice of a system
affects the type and amount of charges you incur. By
default, your phone is set to automatically search for the
most cost-effective system while roaming. If your phone
can’t find a preferred system, it uses a system based on
the option you choose in the System menu.
Note: Befor e selecting an item in the System menu, contact your
6180i Phase A78
11/6/00 2:00pm
service provider to find out how your selection will affect
your service charges.
Roaming
Roaming is the condition of using your phone outside of
its home area. While roaming, another service provider’s
system handles your call, so the service rate for the call is
usually greater than the rate for calls made within your
home area. While roaming, the word Roaming and the
roaming indicator () appear on the start screen.
Note: In some systems, you may need to have a roaming
agreement in order to place a call. If no roaming agreement
has been arranged, a network operator may interrupt and
request information on how you intend to pay for the call.
Service Types
In each wireless service area there are usually two service
providers referred to as type A and type B. When you first
set up your wireless service account, your service provider
will inform you of which system you will be using (usually
type B). This is your home system. The other system (for
example, type A) is known as a non home-type system.
System choices
Note: If you have more than one phone number (NAM), your
choice affects only the currently selected NAM. See ‘NAM
selection’ on page 59.
Note: System choices may differ according to service provider.
• Home only - Your phone cannot roam. This means
you can make and receive calls in your home area
only. While roaming, No Service appears and you will
not be able to make or receive calls.
• Automatic A - Your phone searches for system A. If
system A is not available, it searches for an available
analog system.
• Automatic B - For most service providers, this is the
default selection. Your phone searches for system B. If
system B is not available, it searches for an available
analog system.
6180i Phase A79
11/6/00 2:00pm
• Analog - Your phone searches for an available analog
system. If an analog system is not available, No Service appears. While Analog is selected, if you
power your phone off and back on, your phone will
automatically be reset to Automatic B.

Voice messages
Voice mail is a network service that may require a
subscription from your service provider.
Once everything is set up for your voice mailbox (see next
page), your phone will notify you when you receive a voice
message.
New voice message will appear on the display along with
the icon, and you’ll hear a short beep. Your phone
will display the number of voice messages if you’ve

mailbox number along with it.
Note: Some service providers automatically pre-program this
number into your phone. You will only be able to view (and
not change) this number.
Greetings, passwords, and prompts
These may vary in different wireless systems. So if you
need information about how to record your greeting or
6180i Phase A83
11/6/00 2:00pm
how to store your password, contact your service
provider. You’ll also need to contact them on how to
listen to voice messages once you’re connected to your
voice mailbox.

message priority level if the network supports this
feature:
• New voice message - This is a normal priority
message; it can be sent by anyone.
• Urgent voice mail - The person who sends this kind
of message is requesting an immediate reply. This kind
of message can be sent by anyone.
• Emergency voice mail - This kind of message can be
sent only by a network operator or person in authority
when life of property is threatened.

message of normal priority, the emergency message
notification will disappear and the New voice message
notification will be displayed.
Clearing the voice message icon
In most networks, the voice message icon will
automatically be cleared a few seconds after listening to
your last new message. If the network in which you are

6. Receiving mobile messages
Note: You can receive mobile messages if you have
subscribed to the mobile messaging service offered by
your service provider and the network in which you are
using your phone supports mobile messaging.
About mobile messages
You can receive a message in the form of text that
appears on your phone’s screen. Messages are managed
by your service provider’s message center. The person
who sends you a message usually sends it via another
phone (one which allows the user to send and receive
mobile messages) or through email on the internet.
A message consists of a header and a body. The header
may contain the sender’s address and the date that the
message was sent. The body contains the main part of the
message. If you receive a message that was sent via
email, the message subject (title) may appear at the
beginning of the message.
Messages are stored in folders:
• Inbox - Messages (whether read or unread) that
you have neither erased nor saved.
• Outbox - Messages that you sent (if supported by
your service provider).
• Saved - Messages that you have saved.
The sender may assign a priority level to their message:
• Urgent
• Emergency - Sent only by a network operator.
Your phone can store as many as 60 messages (memory
is shared by all folders). The total number of stored
messages depends on message length.
If your phone’s memory is full when you receive a mobile
(text) message, one or more existing messages will
automatically be deleted to make room for the new
message. The priority level assigned to the received
6180i Phase A89
11/6/00 2:00pm
message determines which message is deleted:
• Normal (non-emergency) messages - When a
normal message is received, the oldest read
message in the Inbox is deleted.
• Emergency messages - When an emergency
message is received, existing messages are deleted
in the following order:
- oldest read message in the Inbox
- oldest message in the Saved folder
- oldest unread message in the Inbox
If No space: message waiting or a similar notification
message appears, delete one or more old messages to
make room for the new message. The network will resend
the message later.
When you receive a mobile message
When you receive a mobile message, the mobile message
iconappears and Message received (or New emergency message) is displayed. Depending on the
message alert tone setting, a tone may sound. See

the new message selected. Press Read again. If necessary,
scroll down to read the entire message. At the end of the
message, scroll further to view the sender’s name or
phone number and the date and time the message was
received. When you’ve seen the last new message,
theicon disappears. While reading a message, you
have several Options:
• Erase deletes the message. Press OK to confirm
the deletion or Back to cancel.
• Use number calls a phone number if it was
included in the message. If more than one number
was included, a list of numbers is displayed.

About mobile messages
You can use your phone to send mobile messages that
can be addressed to email addresses and phone numbers.
The recipient typically receives your message via:
• a phone that supports mobile messaging
• a pager
• the internet (through an email client)
Message folders
Message are stored in folders:
• Inbox - Messages that you have received (whether
read or unread) and that you have neither deleted
nor saved.
• Outbox - Messages that you have sent (or that
you have created then saved, intending to send
later).
• Saved - Messages that were in the Inbox or
Outbox and which you saved.
Predictive text input
When composing a message, you can use the predictive
text input method to quickly enter text. See ‘Predictive
text input’ on page 95.

message. An icon or message should then appear on the
recipient’s phone (or other device) to indicate the high
priority level of your message.
Delivery notification
When you send a message, you can request to be notified
when the recipient receives the message. This
notification is called a delivery note. If you addressed the
message to more than one recipient, a separate delivery
note appears for each recipient.

Addressing a mobile message
If the Recipient(s) field is empty, press Back to exit the
message. If one or more characters is present:
• Press and releaseClear to delete one character
• Press and holdClear to delete all characters
To address a mobile message, enter as many as 5 email
addresses in the Recipient(s) field. The maximum number
of characters allowed in each email address is 48. A
counter in the top right corner of the screen indicates the
remaining number of characters allowed in the entire
Recipient(s) field.
If the recipient’s name is listed in the phone book and an
email address is associated with their name, you can
quickly enter their email address by searching for their
name in the phone book. (See “Associating an email

address with a comma. If you use the Search feature, a
comma is automatically entered after each address. To

from the list of special symbols.
Editing a mobile message
Caution: While editing a message, if you accidentally
press and hold Clear, all text within your message will be
deleted.
A message can contain 88 characters. A counter in the
top right corner of the screen indicates the number of
remaining characters that you can enter. You can use two
different methods to enter text into the message:
• Traditional text input
• Predictive text input
Traditional text input
See “Entering text and numbers” on page 42 for more
information.
Predictive text input
Note: The predictive text feaure is based on a built-in dictionary.
Your phone includes several different language versions of
this dictionary. Although your phone may be able to display
a given language on the screen, it does not necessarily
contain a predictive text dictionary of that same language.
Using the traditional text input method requires that you
press some keys more than once. For example, to enter
the letter “c”, you must press 2 2 2. When using
predictive text input, your phone “guesses” which word
you are typing, requiring that you press a key only once
