• NETWORK SERVICES
To use the phone you must have service from a wireless service provider. Many of
the features in this device depend on features in the wireless network to function.
These Network Services may not be available on all networks or you may have to

instructions for their use and explain what charges will apply. Some networks may
have limitations that affect how you can use Network Services. For instance, some

• CONTACT NOKIA
When you need help, the Nokia Customer Care department can provide
information about Nokia products. However, you may wish to check
through your user guide before calling the customer care center, as it is a
comprehensive guide to using your phone.
Whether you are calling about your phone or an enhancement, have the
equipment with you when you call. For example, if you are calling about
a headset, please have it nearby.

The phone label
The label is on the back of your phone (under the battery). It contains
important information about your phone, including the model and
serial numbers.
Please do not remove or deface the label.
Nokia recommends that you note this information on the first page
of this guide.
• CONTACT YOUR SERVICE PROVIDER
Some service providers program a one-key customer support number into
the phone. This number can be useful if you are having trouble dialing a
number, especially when you are traveling outside your home area.
This one-key feature might not be available on your system. Contact your
service provider for availability.
Your phone has a built-in antenna. As with
any other radio transmitting device, avoid
touching the antenna 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. Not touching the antenna area during
a phone call optimizes the antenna
performance and the talk time of your phone.
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna
pointed up and over your shoulder.
Warning: If the phone becomes too hot during a call, the call is
automatically terminated. You will not be able to make or receive
calls until the phone cools.

• ACCESSIBILITY SOLUTIONS
Nokia is committed to making mobile phones easy to use for all individuals,

about phone features, enhancements, and other Nokia products designed
with your needs in mind, visit www.nokiaaccessibility.com
Alternate format user guides
This user guide is available in alternate formats, including:
To request any format, call Nokia Customer Care at 1-888-665-4228.
TTY/TDD users can contact Nokia at 1-800-246-6542.
The LPS-4 loopset is a Nokia enhancement designed to make the phone
more accessible to hearing-aid users.
The Nokia loopset gives hearing-impaired wireless customers clear access to
digital telephony for the first time. With the loopset, people who use a T-coil
equipped hearing aid can make and receive calls without noise interference.
The LPS-4 loopset uses inductive technology to transmit sound to a
hearing aid equipped with a T-coil. With inductive technology, the sound
from the phone is amplified more efficiently and background noise is
eliminated.
The loopset is easy to use. You wear the loopset around your neck, connect
it to your phone, and speak directly toward the microphone.
For detailed instructions on using the loopset, refer to the booklet that
comes with the LPS-4.
Note: The loopset can be purchased separately as an
enhancement.
TTY/TDD capable
This feature makes the phone more user friendly for hearing-impaired
users. This is a network-dependent feature. Contact your service provider
to ensure that it supports this feature.
To send and receive messages using a TTY or TDD device, you will need the
following equipment (in addition to your phone):
• A TTY/TDD device that is “cellular ready” or “cellular compatible”
• A connector cable, usually supplied with the TTY/TDD device
• The Nokia TTY/TDD cable HDA-8 phone adapter, which can be
purchased as an enhancement.
Connect the TTY/TDD device
1 Connect the cable to the TTY machine.
2 Connect the cable to the adapter.

Then, write down and store the new code in a safe place, away from
your phone.

time you press a key. The * prevents others from seeing your code.
• If you enter the wrong security code five times in a row, your phone
will not accept any entries for the next five minutes. However, if you
