The fixed antenna is active unless the extendable antenna is fully extended.

Note: Parts of the device are magnetic. Metallic materials may be attracted to the device, and persons with a hearing aid should not hold the device to the ear with the hearing aid. Always secure the device in its holder, because metallic materials may be attracted by the earpiece. Do not place credit cards or other magnetic storage media near the device, because information stored on them may be erased.

In the Nokia 6256i phone, the GPS antenna is also internal and is activated when placing emergency calls or when On is selected from the Location info sharing menu. For more information, see "Location info sharing," p. 64.

Note: As with any other radio transmitting device, do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the device 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 talktime of your device.

Messages (Menu 1)

4. Messages (Menu 1)

If you have subscribed to a message network service, you can send and receive messages to compatible phones that are also subscribed to a message service. You can also send and receive picture messages, multimedia messages, and e-mail if supported by your service provider. Also, you can make distribution lists that contain phone numbers and names from your contact list. See "Distribution lists," p. 34 for more information.

When composing TXT Messages, picture messages, or multimedia 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.

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.

Mobile Web (Menu 9)

12. Mobile Web (Menu 9)

Mobile Web 2.0 is a digital network service and is not available everywhere. Mobile Web text messages and alerts fees apply for messages both sent and received. Airtime charges apply. See "Network Services," p. 6 for more information.

Your phone has a built-in browser you can use to connect to selected services on the mobile Web. If your wireless service provider supports this feature, then you can view weather reports, check news or flight times, view financial information, and much more.

Your device may have some bookmarks loaded for sites not affiliated with Nokia. Nokia d oes not warrant or endo rse t he se sites. If you choo se to ac ce ss th em , you should take the same precautions, for security or content, as you would with any internet site.

The security icon does not indicate that the data transmission between the gateway and the content server (or place where the requested resource is stored) is secure. The service provider secures the data transmission between the gateway and the content server.

■ Mobile web access

Because mobile web content is designed to be viewed from your phone, your wireless provider is now your mobile web service provider as well.

It is likely that your wireless provider has created a home page and set up your browser to go to this page when you log on to the mobile web. Once at your service provider’s home page, you may find links to a number of other sites.

It should not be necessary to manually configure the browser on your phone. Normally this is done by your wireless provider once you have subscribed to the feature. Contact your wireless provider if you have problems using the browser.

■ Sign on to the Mobile web

In the standby mode, select Menu > Mobile Web. Press the Scroll up key for quick access.

After a brief pause, your phone attempts to connect to your wireless provider’s home page. If you receive an error message, your phone may not be set up for browsing. Contact your wireless provider to make sure that your phone is configured properly.

■ Navigate the mobile web

Since your phone screen is much smaller than a computer screen, mobile web content is displayed differently than you may be accustomed to seeing. This section contains guidelines for using phone keys to navigate a site.

Phone keys

• To display the Mobile web home screen, press the Power key.

• To browse the site, press the Scroll up or Scroll down key.

• To select a highlighted item, press Select.

• To enter letters and numbers, press a key from 0–9.

• To enter special characters, press the * key.

Receive a call while online

Depending on your wireless service provider, you may still be able to receive a voice call while using the browser.

• To answer the incoming call, press the Send key.

• To reject the incoming call, press the End key.

After you end your voice call, the mobile web connection automatically resumes.

Note: If your wireless service provider does not support incoming calls while browsing, then the incoming calls are automatically forwarded to voice mail.

Make an emergency call while online

You can end your data connection and then make an emergency call.

1. To close your mobile web connection, simply press the End key.

2. Press the End key as many times as needed to clear the display and ready the

phone for calls.

3. Enter the emergency number for your present location (for example, 911). Emergency numbers vary by location.

4. Press the Send key.

Mobile Web (Menu 9)

Clear the cache and disconnect

A cache is a memory location that is used to store data temporarily. If you have tried to access or have accessed confidential information requiring passwords, empty the cache after each use. The information or services you have accessed is stored in the cache. To empty the cache while in the browser menu, select Navigate > Advanced > Clear > Cache from the home page. You can also clear the cache by pressing and holding the Power key to power off your phone.

To close your mobile Web connection while browsing, press and hold the End key.

13. Connectivity (Menu 10)

You can connect the phone to a compatible device using an IR or Bluetooth connection. You can also connect the phone to a compatible PC using IR or Bluetooth; and use the phone as a modem to enable connectivity from the PC.

For vehicle and accessory compatibility to Bluetooth, check the Verizon Wireless Website: www.verizonwireless.com/bluetoothchart

■ Bluetooth connectivity

Bluetooth connectivity enables cost-free wireless connections between electronic devices within a maximum range of 30 feet. A Bluetooth connection can be used to send and receive images, texts, voice recordings, video c lips, notes, business cards, and ca lend ar notes. It can al so be us ed to connect wirelessl y t o products that use Bluetooth wireless technology, such as computers, Bluetooth carkits, and Bluetooth headsets. You can synchronize your phone and your PC using a Bluetooth connection.

Since devices with Bluetooth connectivity communicate using radio waves, your phone and the other device do not need to be in direct line-of-sight.

The two devices only need to be within a maximum of 30 feet (10 meters) of each other, although the connection can be subject to interference from obstructions such as walls or from other electronic devices.

The Bluetooth application consumes the battery and reduces the operating time of the phone. Take this into account when performing other operations with your phone.

There may be restrictions on using devices with Bluetooth connectivity. Check with your local authorities.

These devices are compliant with Bluetooth specification 1.1 supporting the following profiles:

• Object push profile (OPP)

• File transfer profile (FTP)

• Dial-up networking profile (DUN)

• Generic object exchange profile (GOEP)

• Headset profile (HSP)

• Hands-free profile (HFP)

Connectivity (Menu 10)

• Generic access profile (GAP)

• Serial port profile (SPP)

To ensure inter o perability between other devices su pporting Bluetooth technology, use Nokia approved enhancements for this model. Check with the manufacturers of other devices to determine their compatibility with this device.

There may be restrictions on using Bluetooth technology in some locations. Check with your local authorities or service provider.

Features using Bluetooth technology, or allowing such features to run in the background while using other features, increase the demand on battery power and reduces the battery life.

Pairing

You can set up a permanent association (pairing) between your phone and another device with Bluetooth connectivity. Some devices may require pairing before data transfer can take place.

To pair with a device, you and the owner of the other device must agree on a passcode of 1–16 numeric characters. The first time you try to connect the devices, you must each enter the same passcode. The default passcode is 0000. Once the devices are paired, you will not need to use the passcode again, so there is no need to remember it.

Paired devices are placed in your paired device list. You can view the list even when Bluetooth is not active or when the devices in the list are not available for connection.

To view the paired device list:

1. In the standby mode, select Menu > Connectivity > Bluetooth > Paired devices.

2. Scroll to the desired device, and select Options and one of the following

Assign short name—Give a nickname to the selected device (visible to you only).

Request conn. authorization—Select No if you want the phone to connect to the selected device automatically or Yes if you want the phone to ask for your permission first.

Delete pairing—Delete the pairing to the selected device.

Pai r ne w de vic e—Search for active devices with Bluetooth connectivity within

range, scroll to the desired device, and select Pair to establish pairing with that device.

Settings

You can define how your phone is shown to other devices with Bluetooth connectivity.

In the standby mode, select Menu > Settings > Connectivity > Bluetooth >

■ Infrared

You can set up the phone to receive data through its IR port. To use an IR connection, transmission and reception must be to or from an IR compatible phone or device.

Do not point the IR (infrared) beam at anyone’s eye or allow it to interfere with other IR devices. This device is a Class 1 laser product.

Send and receive data

1. Ensure that the IR ports of the sending and receiving devices are pointing at each other and that there are no obstructions between the devices.

The preferable distance between the two devi ces in an IR conn ecti on is from 3 inches to 3 feet.

Connectivity (Menu 10)

2. Activate IR in your phone by selecting Menu > Settings > Connectivity > Infrared.

3. The user of the other device should activate IR as well.

If data transfer is not started within two minutes after the activation of the IR port, the connection is cancelled and must be restarted.
