Tips and hints
Tips and hints for using your new Nokia 6810 phone and for transferring data
from your previous phone to your new phone.
■ Transferring data from the previous phone
• If your old phone has no PC Suite support, the only way to transfer data is
via the SIM card.
1. Transfer all the contact information (names and phone numbers) in the old
phone to the SIM card. For more information, refer to the user guide of the
old phone.
2. Remove the SIM card and install it in your Nokia 6810 phone.
3. Press Menu and select Contacts, Copy, From SIM card to phone and All to
copy the contacts to the new phone.
• If your old phone has PC Suite support, you may be able to transfer data
using the Nokia Content Copier feature of PC Suite.
You can copy data directly from the old phone to the new phone. If you no
longer have the old phone, but you have backed it up to a compatible PC at
some stage, you may still be able to transfer the backup data to your new
phone. Note that only the data that was saved in the old phone when you last
backed it up with the PC can be transferred. For more information, refer to the
PC Suite documentation.

manufacturer for use with this particular phone model. The use of any other types
may invalidate any approval or warranty applying to the phone, and may be
dangerous.
For availability of approved accessories, please check with your dealer.
The security code helps to protect your phone against unauthorised use. The
preset code is 12345. When you have changed the code, keep the new code secret
and in a safe place separate from your phone. To change the code, and to set the

display Code error. Wait for five minutes and key in the code again.
PIN and PIN2 codes (4 to 8 digits), Module PIN and Signing PIN
• The PIN (Personal Identification Number) code protects your SIM card against
unauthorised use. The PIN code is usually supplied with the SIM card. Set the
phone to request the PIN code each time the phone is switched on, see
Security settings on page 131.
• The PIN2 code may be supplied with the SIM card and is required to access
some functions.
• The module PIN is required to access the information in the security module.
See Security module on page 167. The module PIN is supplied with the SIM
card if the SIM card has a security module in it.
• The signing PIN is required for the digital signature. See Digital signature on
page 169. The signing PIN is supplied with the SIM card if the SIM card has a
security module in it.
If you key in an incorrect PIN code three times in succession, the phone may

Your Nokia 6810 phone is approved for use on EGSM 900, GSM 1800 and GSM
1900 networks. It provides many functions that are practical for daily use, such as
calendar, radio, loudspeaker, clock and alarm clock. Your phone also supports the
following functions (many of which are network services):
• EDGE (Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution), see EGPRS on page 123. EDGE
packet transmission networks enable faster connection than GPRS.

graphical content from service providers’ web servers. See Services (Menu 9)
on page 158.
• Presence-enhanced contacts, which allow you to conveniently share your
availability information with your colleagues, family and friends with
compatible devices and services. See My presence on page 105.
• Chat, which is a way of sending short text messages that are delivered to
online users. See Chat on page 80.
• The messaging keyboard for writing text comfortably, see Writing and sending
messages on page 63.
• The e-mail function, which allows you to write, send and retrieve e-mails from
your e-mail account. See E-mail application on page 76.
• The multimedia messaging service (MMS), which allows you to send and
receive multimedia messages that contain text, picture, sound or video clips to
and from compatible devices. You can save the pictures and ringing tones for
personalising your phone, see Multimedia messages on page 70.
• Polyphonic sound (MIDI), which consists of several sound components that are
played at the same time. The phone has sound components from over 40
instruments and it can play up to 16 instruments at the same time. The phone
supports Scalable Polyphonic MIDI (SP-MIDI) format.

applications and games to your phone, see Applications (Menu 8) on page 151.
• An integrated stereo radio. You can listen to the radio using a headset or via
the loudspeaker, see Radio (Menu 6) on page 135.
Shared memory
The following features in this phone may share memory: contacts, text, chat and
multimedia messages, the e-mail application, voice tags and SMS distribution
lists, images, ringing tones, video and sound clips in the gallery, calendar, to-do
notes, Java games, applications, and the note application. Using any oif these
features may reduce the memory available for applications that require shared
memory. This is especially true with heavy use of any of the features (although
some of them may have a certain amount of memory specially allotted to them in
addition to the amount of memory shared with other features). For example,
saving many images, Java applications, etc. may take all of the shared memory
and your phone may display a message that the memory is full. In this case, delete
some of the information or entries stored in the shared memory features before
continuing.
• Keep all miniature SIM cards out of the reach of small children.
• The SIM card and its contacts can easily be damaged by scratches or bending,
so be careful when handling, inserting or removing the card.
• Before installing the SIM card, always make sure that the phone is switched off
and disconnected from any enhancement and then remove the battery.
1. With the back of the phone facing you, push
the back cover release button (1) and, at the
same time, slide the back cover off the
phone. If the battery is in place, remove it by
lifting it up.
2. To release the SIM card holder, slide the card
holder backwards (2) and lift it up (3). Insert the SIM card into the SIM card
holder (4). Make sure that the SIM card is properly inserted and that the golden
The text Charging is displayed briefly
if the phone is switched on. If the
battery is completely flat, it may take a few minutes before the charging
indicator appears on the display or before any calls can be made.
You can use the phone while the charger is connected.
The charging time depends on the charger and the battery used. For example,
charging a BLC-2 battery with the ACP-12 charger takes about 1 hour and 30
minutes while the phone is in standby mode.
■ Switching the phone on and off
Warning: Do not switch the phone on when wireless phone use is prohibited or
• If the phone requests a PIN code or a security code, key
in the code, and press OK.
See also Security settings on page 131 and General
information on page 20.
• If the phone displays Insert SIM card even though the
SIM card is properly inserted, or SIM card not supported,
contact your network operator or service provider. Your
phone does not support 5-Volt SIM cards and the card may need to be
changed.
TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: Your phone has a built-in
antenna. As with any other radio transmitting device, do
not 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. Not touching the antenna
area during a phone call optimises the antenna
performance and the talktime of your phone.
