1. Welcome

Congratulations on your purchase of a Nokia 7160 mobile phone. You are now on your way to using a new and exciting tool.
However, before you use your phone, read this chapter. It provides information that you need to know about how to use this manual and how to contact Nokia.

• Network services

Call Forwarding and Call Waiting are two examples of features called Network Services. Network Services are special services provided by your wireless service provider, and are described later in this guide. Before you can take advantage of any of these Network Services, you must subscribe to these service(s) from your wireless service provider and obtain instructions from them for their use.
Some networks may not support all language-dependent characters.

Pressing and holding the key (or the key that your service provider instructed you to use) for 2 seconds will automatically dial their customer support number. This feature can be helpful if you’re having difficulties dialing a number, especially when traveling outside your home area.

This one-key feature might not be available on all systems.
Note:
Contact your service provider for availability.

Before you begin

2. Before you begin

• Attach your battery

Prior to using your phone, the battery must be installed and charged. Grasp the phone near the display (rather than on the slide mechanism). Place the battery in the grooves on the back of your phone. Then slide the battery upward until it clicks.
Use only those batteries approved by
Note:
the phone manufacturer. See “Using batteries and chargers” on page 112.

• Charge your battery

1. With your phone on or off, connect the lead from the charger to the bottom of the phone.
2. Connect the charger to an AC wall outlet. The battery indicator bar starts to scroll after a few seconds.
3. Disconnect the charger from the phone and AC outlet when the battery is fully charged.
When the indicator bar stops scrolling, the battery will accept a
Note:
"trickle charge" for an additional 2 hours until it is 100% fully charged (except BMS-2V). See “Charging Times” on page 96 for more information.
Important battery information:
• Recharge your battery only with the chargers approved by the manufacturer.
• The phone can be used while charging if the phone is switched on.
[ 5 ]
• If the battery is totally empty, it may take a few minutes before you can make and receive calls, and before the charging indication appears on the display. For more information about specific chargers, see pages 98-100.
• If the phone is switched on when charging is completed, is displayed on the screen momentarily.
• Unlike NiMH batteries, the BLS-2S Li-Ion battery does not need to be fully discharged before recharging.
