Welcome
Welcome
Congratulations on the purchase of this car phone, which allows
you to access GSM900 networks worldwide.
GSM, the Global System for Mobile Communications, is the digital standard used in many countries throughout the world, enabling you to benefit from the GSM services provided by your
car phone.
About labels on your car phone
Your car phone has labels on it which are important for service
and related purposes. Therefore be careful not to remove or lose
any label or the information it contains.
Security code
The factory setting for the security code is 12345. It is supplied
with the car phone on an identification sticker. The security
code protects your car phone against unauthorised use.
Change the code, see “4-3 Security settings” on page 28, and
keep the new code secret and in a safe place separate from the
car phone.
Using this guide
The car phone described in this guide is approved for use on the
GSM900 network.
There are a number of features included in this guide which are
called Network Services. They are special services provided by
wireless service providers. Before you can take advantage of any
of these Network Services, you must subscribe to these services
with your home service provider and obtain instructions for
their use.
In this manual, the menu names and commands that appear on
the display of your phone are always in bold print. For example:
Phone book, calling.
Before you can use your car
phone, you must place a
SIM (Subscriber Identity
Module) card in the phone.
Your car phone has two SIM card readers: one in the radio unit
and the other in the handset. The factory setting assigns the
card reader in the handset priority; the car phone will only work
with the prioritised card (e.g. Phone book).
The user can change the priority of the card readers for use via
the menu, see “4-2-7 SIM card priority” on page 28. The user‘s
priority setting is then used as a default setting. If only one
reader is initially loaded with a card, that reader is automatically used.
If an invalid or corrupted SIM card is used in the prioritised card
reader, the user is notified through a message on the display.
The phone will not try to use a different card reader with a lower
priority. Switch off the car phone and remove the invalid SIM
card. Then restart the car phone. The car phone will then work
with the second SIM card.
Inserting a SIM card in the radio unit
The SIM card and the contacts stored in it can easily be damaged if scratched or bent, so be careful when handling, inserting
or removing the card.
Before you insert the SIM card,
make sure that the car phone
has been switched off!
Insert the SIM card into the slot
so that the contacts are towards
the radio unit.
Inserting a SIM card in the handset
Warning! Keep all miniature
SIM cards out of the reach of
small children.
Before you insert the SIM card,
make sure that the car phone
has been switched off!
1. Press at least one push button of the cradle to lift off
the handset.
2. At the back of the handset,
push the cover for the SIM
card aside.

Your car phone employs the data transmission capabilities of
the GSM network to send faxes, short messages and e-mail and
to establish connections with remote computers.
GSM data capabilities of your car phone
- Data compression with V.42bis
- Non-transparent and transparent data transfer at 9.6kbit/s
-AT commands
(for further information, see Nokia 6090 Product Support on
www.forum.nokia.com website)
- Fax service classes 1, 2 and 2.0 and ECM (sending)
- SMS sending and receiving
Cellular data connections can be made from most of the locations where your car phone operates. However, we recommend
that you move the car to a location where the strongest possible
cellular signal can be obtained. When the signal is strong, data
transmission is efficient.
In general, you should not expect the same performance from
cellular data communications as from line-connected communications due to the inherent characteristics of the cellular environment. The following factors may impair cellular
connections:
Noise
Radio interference from electronic appliances and equipment as
well as from surrounding traffic may impact the transmission
quality.
Handover
As the car phone user moves from one network cell to another,
the signal strength of the channel drops and the cellular telephone exchange may hand the user over to a different cell and
frequency where the signal is stronger. A cell handover may also
occur when the user is stationary due to varying cellular traffic
loads. Such handovers may cause slight delays.
Dead spots and dropouts
Dead spots are areas where radio signals cannot be received.
Dropouts occur when the car phone user passes through an area
where the radio signal is blocked or reduced by geographic or
structural obstructions.
Low signal strength
Due to either distance or obstacles, the radio signal strength
from a cell site may not be strong or stable enough to provide
reliable cellular connection for communication. Therefore, to
ensure the best possible communication, remember to take the
following points into consideration when using your car phone:
The data and fax connection works best when the car is stationary. Attempting cellular communication while in a moving vehicle is not recommended. Fax transmission is more easily
impaired than data or short message transmission.
Check that the cellular signal strength on the handset display is
sufficient. If the cellular signals are not strong enough to support a voice call, data connection should not be attempted until
you can find a location with better signal reception.
Environmental impacts
Your car phone works in an temperature range between -20°C
and +60°C.
Access codes
You can use the access codes described in this section to prevent unauthorised use of your phone and SIM card.
Your car phone may contain two different SIM cards. These
cards use different access codes. Remember to check which SIM
card is currently in use.
The access codes (except PUK and PUK2 codes) can be changed
by using the menu “4-3-5 Change access codes” on page 29. If
you want to change the codes of the second SIM card, you have
to change the priority of the card reader, see “4-2-7 SIM card
priority” on page 28, restart the car phone and change the codes
of the second SIM card.
Security code (5 digits)
The security code can be used to prevent unauthorised use of
your phone. The security code (factory setting: 12345) is usually
supplied with the phone.
Change the code, see “4-3 Security settings” on page 28,and
keep the code secret and in a safe place separate from the
phone.
PIN code (4 to 8 digits)
The PIN (Personal Identification Number) code protects your
SIM card against unauthorised use. The PIN code is usually supplied with the SIM card.
PIN2 code (4 to 8 digits)
The PIN2 code, supplied with some SIM cards, is required to access some functions, such as call cost limit. These functions are
only available if supported by your SIM card.
PUK code (8 digits)
The PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) code is required to change a
blocked PIN code. The PUK code may be supplied with the SIM
card. If not, contact your local service provider for the code. If
you lose the code, contact your service provider.
The PUK2 code, supplied with some SIM cards, is required to
change a blocked PIN2 code. If you lose the code, contact your
service provider.
Battery information
Your radio unit does not contain its own battery. The voltage is
supplied straight from your car battery to the car phone. The car
phone works with a voltage from 10.8V to 16V.
If the voltage is higher than 16V, the car phone switches off automatically and remains off until the voltage drops to a value
within the permissible range.
If the voltage of the car battery drops lower than 10.8V, a warning appears that phone calls are not possible because of low
power. If the voltage drops below approx. 6V, the phone switches off and will automatically switch on as soon as the voltage
rises again. The next time the car phone is turned on, a message
appears on the display giving the reason for the error.
Warning! Use only accessories approved by the phone manu-
facturer for use with this particular phone model. The use of any
other types will invalidate any approval or warranty applying to
the phone, and may be dangerous.
6090 DIN/ISO installation kit
With the DIN/ISO installation kit, the Nokia 6090 is optimally
designed for easy installation in your car, either in the dashboard or in the central console. You have easy access to the ra-
dio unit SIM reader or the data connector. For availability of
approved accessories, please check with your dealer.
Warning! When you disconnect the power cord of any accessory, grasp and pull the plug, not the cord.
GSM antenna
This antenna is used to connect your car phone to the wireless
GSM network. The antenna is not included in the package and has
to be purchased separately. Your Nokia dealer can advise you
about the antenna that best suits your needs. A dedicated 8W
GSM 900 antenna is recommended, combined GSM-phone/FMradio antennas are not, because they might not be designed for
8W output power. The frequency switch of a combined antenna
can be destroyed and the FM-radio reception quality might suffer.
Data cable
This cable is used to connect your car phone to your device (e.g.
to the 9-pin serial port of a compatible portable computer or
portable fax). As this cable is a standard cable (1:1 modem cable, also called "DB9-prolongator cable" or "RS-232 modem cable") and is not included in the phone package, it can be
purchased in shops that sell accessories for computers. To enable a compatible computer to communicate with the phone, a
driver file can be downloaded from Nokia 6090 Product Support
on www.forum.nokia.com website, and installed in the computer according to instructions provided there.
Your car phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The suggestions below will
help you to fulfil any warranty obligations and to enjoy this
product for many years. When using your car phone or any accessory:
• Keep it and all its parts and accessories out of small chil-
dren‘s reach.

assist you and, if necessary, arrange for service.
Do not use a handheld telephone while driving a vehicle. If using
a handheld telephone park the vehicle before conversing. Always secure the phone in its holder; do not place the phone on
the passenger seat or where it can break loose in a collision or
upon a sudden stop.
The use of an alert device to operate a vehicle’s lights or horn
on public roads is not permitted.
Remember road safety always comes first!
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area
and always switch off your phone whenever it is forbidden to
use it, or when it may cause interference or danger.
When connecting the phone or any accessory to another device,
read its user’s guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are
advised that for the satisfactory operation of the equipment and
for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that the equipment should only be used in the normal operating position.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment may
not be shielded against the RF signals from your car phone.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing
aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult
your service provider.
Other medical devices
Operation of any radio-transmitting equipment, including cellular phones, may interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the
manufacturer of the medical device to determine if your devices
are adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you should
have any questions.
Switch off your car phone in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or
health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles (e.g. electronic
Check with the manufacturer or their representative regarding
your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any
equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted facilities
Switch your car phone off in any facility where posted notices
require you to do so.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Switch off your car phone when in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting
in bodily injury or even death.
Users are advised to switch off the car phone when at a refuelling point (service station). Users are reminded of the need to
observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots
(fuel storage and distribution areas), chemical plants or where
blasting operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not
always, clearly marked. They include below-deck on boats,
chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using liquified
petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal
powders and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Vehicles
Only qualified personnel should service or install the car phone
in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and
may invalidate any warranty which may apply to the unit.
Check regularly that all car phone equipment in your vehicle is
mounted and operating properly.
Do not store or transport flammable liquids, gases or explosive
materials in the same compartment as the car phone, its parts
or accessories.
For vehicles equipped with an airbag, remember that an airbag
inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including both
installed or portable wireless equipment in the area over the airbag or in the airbag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless
equipment is improperly installed and the airbag inflates, serious injury could result.
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to suspension or
denial of telephone services to the offender or legal action or
both.
Important! This car phone, like any wireless phone, operates us-
ing radio signals, wireless and landline networks as well as userprogrammed functions which cannot guarantee connection in
all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any
wireless phone for essential communications (e.g. medical
emergencies).
Remember, to make or receive any calls, the car phone must be
switched on and in a service area with adequate signal strength.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain network services and/or phone features
are in use. Check with local cellular service providers.
To make an emergency call:
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.
Some networks may require that a valid SIM card is properly
inserted in the phone.
2. Press and hold c for several seconds to ready the phone
for calls.
3. Key in the emergency number applicable for your present location (e.g. 112 or other official emergency number). Emergency numbers vary according to location.
4. Press M (Call).
If certain features are in use (Fixed dialling, etc.), you may first
need to turn those features off before you can make an emer-
gency call. Consult this document and your local cellular service
provider.
When making an emergency call, remember to give all the necessary information as accurately as possible. Remember that
your wireless phone may be the only means of communication
at the scene of an accident - do not cut off the call until given
permission to do so.
The phone audio line-out has to be connected to the car radio line-in. It delivers
two differencial audio signals, each one sur-
rounded by a mass. At a load impedance >
1kOhm, the nominal level is 70 mVrms, the maximum level 2000
mVrms. Check with your car radio dealer to ensure that your
specific radio line-in is compatible with your phone equipment.
Note: The SIM card and antenna represented here are not included in the package.
Recommendations
Warning! Only qualified personnel should service the car phone
or install the car phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service
may be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty which may
apply to the unit.
Note: When installing the car kit in Australia and New Zealand,
the 6090 should be installed in accordance with AS/NZS 4346.
• Microphone installation
The recommended position for the microphone should be the
top of the A-pillar or, alternatively, near the back mirror in
the middle of the car. The microphone should be pointed in
the direction of the driver‘s mouth with a optimum distance
of 30 cm. Streams of fresh air should not be directed at the
microphone and the microphone cable should not be laid in
the ventilation system. Use the provided soft material to connect the HF microphone to the A-pillar in order to avoid any
noise coupling from the car to the microphone.
• Loudspeaker installation
The best position for the RF speaker is in the lower front-seat
passenger area.
• Audio line out
Handsfree can also be provided by using the audio line out
signal of the 6090 in combination with an appropriate FM
car radio supporting the audio line-in function which enables
use of the car loudspeaker system instead of using the delivered handsfree loudspeaker HFS-10. For good performance,
use the front loudspeaker only and adjust the volume via the
6090 handset. So that keypad and warning tones may be
audible, the external handsfree loudspeaker also has to be
installed as described above. In case the FM car radio is not
equipped with a connector for the audio line-out signal (see
picture), the connector may be removed in order that the two
wires can be directly connected to the FM car radio line-in.
Since the 6090 audio line-out provides a differential signal
instead of a +/- signal, the wires may be connected either
way.
Warning! Don't connect the handsfree loudspeaker cable (3)
to the car radio line-in, you would damage the phone and the
car radio. Make sure you connect it only to the HFS-10 loudspeaker provided. Do not use any other loudspeaker than the
one provided. Only the audio line-out cable provided (10)
may be connected to a car radio.
• Connection to the car battery
Take the voltage directly from the car battery and use the
cable supplied with the sales packages. This cable includes
fuses to protect the phone. If you do not so, noise may
impact the quality of the 6090 loudspeaker. The description
of the cable and its colour may be taken from the attached
illustration.
• GSM antenna
A dedicated 8W GSM antenna is recommended. For more
information about antenna see “GSM antenna” on page 37.
Warning! In order to comply with RF exposure requirements
for mobile transmitting devices, a minimum distance of
20 cm must be maintained between the antenna and all persons.
• Connect only the 6090 handset to the system connector as
shown in the installation picture.
• When installing the radio unit, ensure a sufficient air supply
(e.g. not in a box under the carpet).
• Do not extend the system cable by any wires.
• Use only correct fuses.
• The backlight dimming line (9) requires a signal from the car
that matches VDA specifications if backlight dimming of the
phone is to be fully functional.
For further information, see Nokia 6090 Product Support on
www.forum.nokia.com website.
Alternate line service allows you to have two different phone
numbers, which page the same SIM card. Each of these phone
numbers can have different settings: call barrings, diverts, etc.
This is a network service which has to be subscribed to separately with your service provider. These two phone numbers are handled as separate numbers in the network. They are invoiced
separately and can be used, for example, for differentiating between personal and business calls.
