Tips on efficient operation
Your phone has a built-in antenna. As with
any other radio transmitting device, do
touch the antenna unnecessarily 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.
When you avoid touching the antenna area during a
call, you optimize the antenna performance and the
talktime of your phone.

Dynamic memory use
Some features in your Nokia 6590i phone, including Calendar notes, Todo list, WAP cache, WAP bookmarks, and WAP security cache and
certificates use a common pool of memory (storage capacity) called
dynamic memory. When any of these features are used, there is less
available memory for other features which are also dependent on dynamic
memory. This is especially true with heavy use.
For example, entering 250 calendar notes, saving multiple WAP bookmarks
and entering several items in your To-do list may consume most of the
available dynamic memory. Consequently, if you attempt to download a
WAP bookmark into your phone, a message saying
To proceed, you would need to delete some of the items/information
occupying the available dynamic memory.

• PREDICTIVE TEXT INPUT
Predictive text input allows you to write messages much faster than the
ABC mode. With predictive text input, you only need to press each number
key once for each letter. Your phone uses a built-in dictionary to predict
or guess what you are writing. You can also add new words to the dictionary.
For example, to write “Nokia” with the English dictionary selected, press:
(for N) (for o) (for k) (for i) (for a)
The display shows the above words for each key pressed.
Since the displayed word changes after each key stroke, disregard the
word until you have keyed in all the characters.

Predictive text input may not be available for all languages.

The voice features in your phone make communication more convenient.
You can check messages from friends or business associates, record a voice
memo, and use voice dialing and voice commands for handsfree operation.
• ABOUT VOICEMAIL
Voicemail is a network feature that allows callers to leave a voice message
for you when you are not able to take the call.
To use Voicemail, you must have:
• A Voicemail subscription
• A voice mailbox number
• A temporary password
These items are assigned by your service provider. Your service provider
should also tell you how to record a greeting for your voice mailbox and
how to change the temporary password.
After you obtain this information from your service provider, you must
then save the voice mailbox number to your phone.
Voicemail indicators
When you receive a voice message, your phone lets you know by beeping,
displaying an icon on the screen, or showing a text message. The method
of notification depends upon your carrier.
Additionally, if you receive more than one Voicemail message, your phone
may display the number of messages that you have received. Finally, if you
subscribe to two different phone lines, the message would indicate the line
to which the message was addressed.
Note:
If you have difficulty using the Voicemail feature, contact
your service provider.

Notes about voice tags
Before using voice dialing, note that:
• Voice tags are not language dependent. They are dependent on the
speaker's voice.
• Voice tags are sensitive to background noise. Record them and make
calls in a quiet environment.
• When recording a voice tag or making a call by saying a voice tag,
hold the phone in the normal position near to your ear.
• Very short names are not accepted. Use long names and avoid similar
names for different numbers.
Note:
You must say the name exactly as you said it when you
recorded it. This may be difficult in, for example, a noisy environment
or during an emergency, so you should not rely solely upon voice
dialing in all circumstances.
