CONNECTING TO OTHER DEVICES

When connecting to any other device, read its user guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.

EMERGENCY CALLS

Ensure the phone is switched on and in service. Press the end key as many times as needed to clear the display and return to standby mode. Enter the emergency number, then press the call key. Give your location. Do not end the call until given permission to do so.

■ About your device

The wireless device described in this guide is approved for use on the CDMA 800, and 1900, and AMPS networks, and also receives signals from the global positioning system. Contact your service provider for more information about networks.

When using the features in this device, obey all laws and respect privacy and legitimate rights of others.

When taking and using images or video clips, obey all laws and respect local customs as well as privacy and legitimate rights of others.

Warning: To use any features in this device, other than the alarm clock, the device must be switched on. Do not switch the device on when wireless device use may cause interference or danger.

■ Network services

To use the phone you must have service from a wireless service provider or network operator. 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 make specific arrangements with your service provider before you can utilise network services. Your service provider may need to give you additional 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 networks may not support all languagedependent characters and services.

Your service provider may have requested that certain features be disabled or not activated in your device. If so, they will not appear on your device menu. Your device may also have been specially configured. This configuration may include

viii

changes in menu names, menu order and icons. Contact your service provider for more information.

This device supports WAP 2.0 protocols (HTTP and SSL) that run on TCP/IP protocols. Some features of this device, such as Mobile web require network support for these technologies.

■ Shared memory

The following features in this device may share memory: Messaging,

Contacts, Gallery, Organiser, and Extras. Use of one or more of these

features may reduce the memory available for the remaining features sharing memory. For example, saving many photos to the Gallery may use all of the available memory. Your device may display a message that the memory is full when you try to use a shared memory feature. In this case, delete some of the information or entries stored in the shared memory features before continuing. Some of the features, such as Messaging and

Contacts, may have a certain amount

of memory specially allotted to them in addition to the memory shared with other features.

Welcome

Congratulations on your purchase of this Nokia mobile phone. Your phone provides many functions which are practical for daily use, such as a handsfree loudspeaker, and more. Your phone can also connect to a PC, laptop, or other device using a USB data cable or Bluetooth wireless technology.

■ Keyguard

With keyguard, you can lock the keypad to prevent keys from being pressed accidentally. Remember to lock your phone keypad to prevent accidental calls or activation of features. If the keypad is locked, it unlocks when you receive a call. After the call, the lock automatically reactivates.

When the keyguard is on, calls may be possible to the official emergency number programmed into your device.

If the phone is closed, open it. When the phone is open:

• To unlock the keypad, select

Unlock, and press * within 2

seconds.

• To lock the keypad, select Menu, and press * within 2 seconds.

Text entry

3. Text entry

You can use two methods for entering text and numbers: standard mode and predictive text mode.

■ Standard mode

Standard mode is the only way to enter text into the contacts list, and to rename caller groups.

Text (Abc)

• Press a key once to insert the first letter on the key, twice for the second letter, etc. If you pause briefly, the last letter in the display is accepted and your phone awaits the next entry.

• Press 0 to enter a space, thereby accepting a completed word.

• Press 1 as many times as necessary to scroll through a list of commonly used characters.

• Press * to display a complete list of special characters.

• Press and hold # to open Editor

settings, and select Number mode, Prediction on or Prediction off.

Numbers (123)

To switch to 123 mode from Abc mode, press and hold # at any message entry screen to open the Editor settings. Select Number mode, and the device returns to the message entry screen and switches the ABC icon in the upper left corner of the display to the 123 icon (or back). To return to Abc mode, press and hold #.

Punctuation and special characters

While at any text entry screen, press * to display special characters (press and hold * if predictive text is on). Press * again to cycle through all available characters. Scroll to navigate through the list of special characters. Once a character is highlighted, select Insert to insert the character into your message.

■ Predictive text mode

Predictive text input allows you to write messages quickly using your keypad and the built-in dictionary. It is much faster than the standard mode method, because for each letter, you only press the corresponding key on your keypad once.

Text entry

Activate and deactivate

At any text entry screen, select and hold Options to turn predictive text on or off depending on previous mode, or select Options > Predictive text >

Prediction on or Prediction off. Press #

twice to change from predictive text mode to standard mode and back.

Enter text

The illustration below simulates your display each time a key is pressed. For example, to write Nokia with predictive text on and with the English dictionary selected, press each of the following keys once:

665 4 2

• Press 0 to enter a space and begin writing the next word.

• If a displayed word is not correct, press * to see other matches. To return to the previous word in the list of matches, select Prev.

• If ? appears after a word, it is not in the dictionary. Select Spell to add the word to the dictionary.

• Press 1 to insert a period into your message.

• Press and hold * to display special characters. Press * again to cycle through all available characters.

• Press and hold the specific number key to enter a number.

• Press and hold # to open Editor

settings, and select Number mode, Prediction on or Prediction off.

■ Change case and

mode

Press # to switch between uppercase, lowercase, and sentence case, as well as standard and predictive text modes. Case and mode are indicated by the following icons that appear in the upper left of the display screen.

Uppercase text: standard mode is on.

Lowercase text: standard mode is on.

Sentence case text:

standard mode is on. Only available at the beginning of a sentence.

Uppercase text:

predictive text is on.

Lowercase text:

predictive text is on.

Sentence case text:

predictive text is on. Only available at the beginning of a sentence.

Text entry

■ Delete text

To delete text, use one of the following options:

• Select Clear to backspace the cursor and delete a character.

• Select and hold Clear to backspace continuously and delete characters.

4. Messaging

Messaging

Your phone is capable of creating and receiving text, multimedia, voice and minibrowser messages. Check with your service provider to see what messaging is available for you.

■ Text messages

Text messaging is a network service. See “Network services”, p. viii, for more information. If your wireless service provider or network operator supports this feature, you can send and receive text messages to compatible phones that are also subscribed to the service.

When composing text messages, check the number of characters allowed in the top right corner of the message. Using special (unicode) characters takes up more space. If there are special characters in your message, the indicator may not show the message length correctly. Before the message is sent, the phone will tell you if the message exceeds the maximum length allowed for one message. Also, you can make distribution lists that contain phone numbers and names from your contact list. See “Distribution lists”, p. 27 for more information.

Note: When sending messages, your device may display Message sent. This is an indication that the message has been sent by your device to the message center number programmed into your device. This is not an indication that the message has been received at the intended destination. For more details about messaging services, check with your service provider.

■ Multimedia messages

Multimedia messaging is a network service. See “Network services”, p. viii, for more information. If your wireless service provider or network operator supports this feature, you can send and receive multimedia messages to compatible phones that are also subscribed to the service.

A multimedia message can contain text, sound, a picture, or a video clip. Your phone supports multimedia messages that are up to 600 KB. If the maximum size is exceeded, the phone

may not be able to receive the message.

Note: Only devices that have compatible features can receive and display multimedia messages. The appearance of a message may vary depending on the receiving device. The wireless network may limit the size of multimedia messages. If the inserted picture exceeds this limit, the device may make it smaller so that it can be sent by multimedia message.

Depending upon your network, you may receive a message that includes an Internet address where you can go to view the multimedia message. Pictures are scaled to fit the display area of the phone. Your phone has a multimedia message viewer for playing messages and a multimedia inbox for storing saved messages. Once you save the multimedia message, you can use the image as a screen saver or the sound as a ringing tone.

Copyright protections may prevent some images, ringing tones, and other content from being copied, modified, transferred, or forwarded.

Multimedia messaging only supports the following formats:

• Picture: JPEG, GIF, animated GIF, WBMP, BMP, and PNG
