If you forget any of the access codes, contact your service
provider.

Personal identification number (PIN) code — This code
protects your SIM card against unauthorised use. The PIN

code (4 to 8 digits) is usually supplied with the SIM card.
After three consecutive incorrect PIN code entries, the
code is blocked, and you need the PUK code to unblock it.

UPIN code — This code may be supplied with the USIM
card. The USIM card is an enhanced version of the SIM card
and is supported by UMTS mobile phones.

PIN2 code — This code (4 to 8 digits) is supplied with some
SIM cards, and is required to access some functions in your
device.

Lock code (also known as security code) — The lock code
helps you to protect your device against unauthorised use.
The preset code is 12345. You can create and change the
code, and set the device to request the code. Keep the new
code secret and in a safe place separate from your device.
If you forget the code and your device is locked, your
device will require service. Additional charges may apply,
and all the personal data in your device may be deleted.
For more information, contact a Nokia Care point or your
device dealer.

Personal Unblocking Key (PUK) code and PUK2
code — These codes (8 digits) are required to change a
blocked PIN code or PIN2 code, respectively. If the codes
are not supplied with the SIM card, contact the operator
whose SIM card is in your device.

UPUK code — This code (8 digits) is required to change a
blocked UPIN code. If the code is not supplied with the

8

USIM card, contact the operator whose USIM card is in your
device.

Remote lock

To prevent unauthorised use of your device, you can lock
your device and memory card remotely using a text
message. You must define the text message, and to lock
your device, send the text message to your device. To
unlock your device, you need the lock code.

To enable remote locking, and to define the text message,
select Menu > Settings and Phone > Phone mgmt. >

Security settings > Phone and SIM card > Remote
phone locking > Enabled. Tap the text input field to

enter the text message content (5-20 characters), select

, and verify the message. Enter the lock code.

Prolong battery life

Many features in your device increase the demand on
battery power and reduce the battery lifetime. To save
battery power, note the following:

• Features that use Bluetooth technology, or allowing
such features to run in the background while using
other features, increase the demand on battery
power. Deactivate Bluetooth technology when you do
not need it.

• Features that use wireless LAN (WLAN), or allowing
such features to run in the background while using
other features, increase the demand on battery
power. WLAN on your Nokia device deactivates when
you are not trying to connect, not connected to an
access point, or not scanning for available networks.
To further reduce battery consumption, you can
specify that your device does not scan, or scans less
often, for available networks in the background.

• If you have set Packet data connection to When

available in connection settings, and there is no

packet data coverage (GPRS), the device periodically
tries to establish a packet data connection. To prolong
the operating time of your device, select Packet data

connection > When needed.

• The Maps application downloads new map
information when you scroll to new areas on the map,
which increases the demand on battery power. You
can prevent the automatic download of new maps.

• If the signal strength of the cellular network varies
much in your area, your device must scan for the
available network repeatedly. This increases the
demand on battery power.

If the network mode is set to dual mode in the network
settings, the device searches for the UMTS network.
You can set the device to use only the GSM network.
To use only the GSM network, select Menu >

Settings and Connectivity > Network > Network

mode > GSM.

• The backlight of the display increases the demand on
battery power. In the display settings, you can change
the length of the time-out period after which the
backlight is switched off, and adjust the light sensor
that observes lighting conditions and adjusts the
display brightness. Select Menu > Settings and

Phone > Display > Light time-out or Brightness.

• Leaving applications running in the background
increases the demand on battery power. To close the
applications you are not using, press and hold the
menu key, select Options > Show open apps., and
go to the application by pressing the menu key

repeatedly. Press and hold the menu key, and select

Exit.

Charge the battery

Your battery has been partially charged at the factory.
There may not be a need to charge the battery in advance.
If the device indicates a low charge, do the following:

14

Regular charging

1 Connect the charger to a wall outlet.
2 Connect the charger to the device. The charging

indicator light next to the USB connector is lit when
the battery is being charged.

3 When the device indicates a full charge, disconnect the

charger from the device, then from the wall outlet.

You do not need to charge the battery for a specific length
of time, and you can use the device while it is charging. If
the battery is completely discharged, it may take several
minutes before the charging indicator appears on the
display or before any calls can be made.

Tip: Disconnect the charger from the wall outlet when the
charger is not in use. A charger that is connected to the
outlet consumes power even when it is not connected to
the device.

USB charging

You can use USB charging when a wall outlet is not
available. With USB charging, you can also transfer data
while charging the device.

1 Connect a compatible USB device to your device using

a compatible USB cable.

some cases, it may take a very long time for charging
to start and the device to start functioning.

2 If your device is switched on, you can select from the

available USB mode options on the display of the
device.

Headset

You can connect a compatible headset or compatible
headphones to your device. You may need to select the
cable mode.

Some headsets come in two parts, a remote control unit
and headphones. A remote control unit has a microphone
and keys to answer or end a phone call, adjust the volume,
and play music or video files. To use the headphones with
a remote control unit, connect the unit to the Nokia AV
Connector in the device, then connect the headphones to
the unit.

Warning:

When you use the headset, your ability to hear outside
sounds may be affected. Do not use the headset where it
can endanger your safety.

Do not connect products that create an output signal as
this may cause damage to the device. Do not connect any
voltage source to the Nokia AV Connector.
