may require you to insert the SIM card. Your new Eseries
device does not need a SIM card when transferring
data.
Content is copied from the memory of the other device
to the corresponding location in your device. Copying
time depends on the amount of data to be transferred.
You can also cancel and continue later.
The necessary steps for data transfer may vary
depending on your device, and whether you have
interrupted data transfer earlier. The items that you
can transfer vary depending on the other device.

Memory
There are two types of memory into which you can save

Free memory
To see how much memory is currently in use, how

consumed by each data type, select Menu >
Options > Memory details > Phone memory or
Memory card.
Tip: To ensure that you have adequate memory,
transfer data regularly to a memory card or
computer, or use File manager to delete files you
no longer need.
After you install applications to a compatible memory
card, installation files (.sis) remain in the device
memory. The files may use large amounts of memory
and prevent you from storing other files. To maintain
sufficient memory, use Nokia PC Suite to back up
installation files to a compatible PC, then use the file
manager to remove the installation files from the
device memory. If the .sis file is a message attachment,
delete the message from the Messaging inbox.
Memory card
Select Menu > Tools > Memory.
If you cannot use a memory card in your device, you
may have the wrong type of memory card, the card may
not be formatted for your device, or the card has a
corrupted file system. Your Nokia device supports the
FAT16 and FAT32 file system for memory cards.
MicroSD
This device uses a microSD memory card.
To ensure interoperability, use only
compatible microSD cards with this device.
Check the compatibility of a microSD card with its
manufacturer or provider. Other memory cards than
microSD cards are not compatible with this device.
Using an incompatible memory card may damage the
memory card as well as the device, and data stored on
the incompatible card may be corrupted.
Insert the memory card
Use a memory card to save the memory on your device.
You can also back up information from your device to
the memory card.
The sales package of your device may not include a
memory card. Memory cards are available as separate
enhancements.
1. With the back of the device facing you, press the
release button (1) and slide the back cover off (2).
2. Insert the memory card in the slot with the contact
area first. Make sure that the contact area is facing
the connectors on the device.
3. Push the card in until it locks into place.
4. Close the back cover.
Use a memory card
To format a memory card for your device, select
Options > Format memory card. When a memory
card is formatted, all data on the card is lost
permanently. Consult your retailer to find out if you
must format the memory card before you can use it.
To change the name of the memory card, select
Options > Memory card name.
You can protect a memory card with a password to
prevent unauthorised access. To set a password, select
Your Nokia E51
29
Options > Set password. The password can be up to
eight characters long and is case-sensitive. The
password is stored in your device. You do not need to
enter it again while you use the memory card in the
same device. If you use the memory card in another
device, you are asked for the password. Not all memory
cards support password protection.
To remove the memory card password, select
Options > Remove password. When you remove the
Your Nokia E51
password, the data on the memory card is not
protected against unauthorised use.
To open a locked memory card, select Options >
Unlock memory card. Enter the password.
Eject the memory card
Important: Do not remove the memory card in
the middle of an operation when the card is being
accessed. Removing the card in the middle of an
operation may damage the memory card as well as the
device, and data stored on the card may be corrupted.
1. Press the power key briefly, and select Remove
memory card.
