1. Introduction

The Nokia Digital Pen allows you to create colourful and personal multimedia messages (MMS). Draw a picture or write a poem, and send it to the compatible phone that supports Bluetooth wireless technology. Display the image on your phone or forward it as a multimedia message to another compatible phone or to an e-mail address.
The Nokia Digital Pen also allows you to write meeting minutes or personal notes, and save them in your PC. The Nokia Digital Pen can save up to 100 A5 pages, all of which can be sent to your PC by placing the pen in the Connectivity Stand, which is connected to your PC via the USB port.
Read this user’s guide carefully before using the Nokia Digital Pen. For important safety and maintenance information and for details about phone features, check the user’s guide of your phone.

Bluetooth wireless technology

The Nokia Digital Pen is specially designed for compatible phones that support Bluetooth wireless technology and Object Push Profile, Dial-up Networking Profile, Generic Object Exchange Profile and Serial Port Profile (A profile is a set of Bluetooth commands that your phone uses to control the pen).
With the Bluetooth wireless technology you can connect compatible devices without cables to other products using Bluetooth wireless technology. A Bluetooth connection does not require that the phone and the Nokia Digital Pen

be in line of sight, but both devices should be within 10 metres of each other, although the connection can be subject to interference from obstructions, such as walls, or other electronic devices.
The Nokia Digital Pen is compliant with and adopts Bluetooth Specification 1.1. However, interoperability between the Nokia Digital Pen and other products with Bluetooth wireless technology is not guaranteed because it depends on compatibility. For more information on the compatibility between the Nokia Digital Pen and other products with Bluetooth wireless technology, check with your dealer.

are saved in the pen until its memory is full. Once the pen’s memory is full, the new data replaces the oldest one in the pen’s memory.
• When you run out of paper, you can obtain notepads from authorized Nokia
retail stores. You can also print a specific PDF file (on CD-ROM) that contains the digital paper pattern on normal printing paper and use it as digital paper.

Using the notepads

The sales package includes two types of notepad paper, a small MMS pad (B7 size) and a large notepad (A5 size). Use the smaller notepad for sending multimedia messages to a compatible phone or to an e-mail address.
The bigger notepad has two functions. You can either save the notes in a PC using the PC application included in the sales package or send them to a compatible phone via a Bluetooth connection. In both cases you only need to select whether you want to send the notes to PC or to the phone by selecting the appropriate box on the notepad, see Using the Nokia Digital Pen with a PC on page 17.
Before starting to use a new notepad, select the box "New notepad" on the first page. Use only one notepad type (MMS pad and notepad) at a time, and start using a new pad of the same type only after you have finished the old pad.

Using the stylo settings

You can change the colour and line thickness of the digital ink while you write or draw. The stylo settings are listed in the fold-out of the notepad back cover.

5. Battery information

Charging and Discharging

Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. Note that a new battery's full performance is achieved only after two or three complete
charge and discharge cycles! The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will eventually wear out.
When the operating time is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery. Unplug the charger when not in use. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for
longer than a week, since overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If left unused a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.
Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge. Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery which is damaged. Leaving the Digital Pen in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter
conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59° F and 77° F). Digital Pen with a hot or c old batter y may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully charged. Batteries' performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.
