Network services
To use the phone you must have service from a wireless
service provider. Many of the features require special network
features. These features are not available on all networks;
other networks may require that you make specific
arrangements with your service provider before you can use
the network services. Your service provider can give you
instructions and explain what charges will apply. Some
networks may have limitations that affect how you can use
network services. For instance, some networks may not
support all language-dependent characters and services.
Your service provider may have requested that certain
features be disabled or not activated in your device. If so,
these features will not appear on your device menu. Your
device may also have a special configuration such as changes
in menu names, menu order, and icons. Contact your service
provider for more information.
This device supports WAP 2.0 protocols (HTTP and SSL) that
run on TCP/IP protocols. Some features of this device, such as
MMS, browsing, and e-mail require network support for these
technologies.
Enhancements, batteries, and
chargers

Prolong battery life
Many features in your device increase the demand on
battery power and reduce the battery life time. To save
battery power, note the following:
● Features that use Bluetooth technology, or allowing
such features to run in the background while using
other features, increase the demand on battery power.
Turn Bluetooth technology off when you do not need
it.
● Features that use wireless LAN (WLAN), or allowing
such features to run in the background while using
other features, increase the demand on battery power.
WLAN on your Nokia device switches off when you are
not trying to connect, not connected to an access point,
or not scanning for available networks. To further
reduce battery consumption, you can specify that your
device does not scan, or scans less often, for available
networks in the background.

available in connection settings, and there is no
packet data coverage (GPRS), the device periodically
tries to establish a packet data connection. To prolong
the operating time of your device, select Packet data
connection > When needed.

Transfer content
You can use the Switch application to copy content such
as phone numbers, addresses, calendar items, and
images from your previous Nokia device to your new
device using Bluetooth connectivity.
The type of content that can be transferred depends on
the model of the device from which you want to transfer
content. If that device supports synchronisation, you can
also synchronise data between the devices. Your device
notifies you if the other device is not compatible.
If the other device cannot be switched on without a SIM
card, you can insert your SIM card in it. When your device
is switched on without a SIM card, the offline profile is
automatically activated.
Transfer content for the first time
1. To retrieve data from the other device for the first
time, on your device, select Switch in the Welcome
application, or press
Utilities > Switch.
2. Select the connection type you want to use to transfer
the data. Both devices must support the selected
connection type.
3. If you select Bluetooth, connect the two devices. To
have your device search for devices with Bluetooth
connectivity, select Continue. Select the device from
which you want to transfer content. You are asked to
enter a code on your device. Enter a code (1-16-digits),
and select OK. Enter the same code on the other
device, and select OK. The devices are now paired.
"Pair devices", p. 98.
Some earlier Nokia devices do not already have the
Switch application. In this case the Switch application
is sent to the other device as a message. To install the
Switch application on the other device, open the
message, and follow the instructions on the display.
4. From your device, select the content you want to
transfer from the other device.
When the transfer has started, you can cancel it and
Content is transferred from the memory of the other
device to the corresponding location in your device. The
transfer time depends on the amount of data to be
transferred.
Synchronise, retrieve, or send
content
After the first transfer, select from the following to start
a new transfer, depending on the model of the other
device:
to synchronise content between your device and the
other device, if the other device supports
synchronisation. The synchronisation is two-way. If an
item is deleted in one device, it is deleted in both. You
cannot restore deleted items with synchronisation.
to retrieve content from the other device to your
device. With retrieval, content is transferred from the
other device to your device. You may be asked to keep or
delete the original content in the other device, depending
on the device model.
to send content from your dev ice to y our ot her dev ice
If Switch cannot send an item, depending on the type of
the other device, you can add the item to the Nokia
folder to C:\Nokia or E:\Nokia and send it from there.
When you select the folder to transfer, the items are
synchronised in the corresponding folder in the other
device, and vice versa.
Use shortcuts to repeat a transfer
After a data transfer, you can save a shortcut with the
transfer settings to the main view to repeat the same
transfer later.
To edit the shortcut, scroll to it, and select Options >
Shortcut settings. You can, for example, create or change
the name of the shortcut.
A transfer log is shown after every transfer. To view the
log of a previous transfer, scroll to a shortcut in the main
view, and select Options > View log.
Handle transfer conflicts
If an item to be transferred has been edited in both
devices, the device attempts to merge the changes
automatically. If this is not possible, there is a transfer
conflict. Select Check one by one, Priority to this
phone, or Priority to other phone to solve the conflict.
For further instructions, select Options > Help.

headset where it can endanger your
safety.
Some headsets come in two parts, a
remote control unit and headphones. A
remote control unit has a microphone
and keys to answer or end a phone call,
adjust the volume, and play music or
video files. To use the headphones with a remote control
unit, connect the unit to the Nokia AV Connector (3.5 mm)
in the device, then connect the headphones to the unit.
If a headset does not include a microphone, for handsfree
phone calls, use such a headset with a compatible remote
control unit or the microphone of the device.
When using certain headset enhancements, to adjust the
volume during a call, use the volume key in the device.
Some headset enhancements have multimedia volume
controls that are used to adjust the volume only for music
or video playback.
Do not connect products that create an output signal as
this may cause damage to the device. Do not connect any
voltage source to the Nokia AV Connector.
When connecting any external device or any headset,
other than those approved by Nokia for use with this
device, to the Nokia AV Connector, pay special attention
to volume levels.
Volume and loudspeaker
control
To increase or decrease the volume level when you have
an active call or are listening to a sound, use the volume
key.
The built-in loudspeaker allows
you to speak and listen from a
short distance without having to
hold the device to your ear.
Warning: Do not hold the device near your ear
when the loudspeaker is in use, because the volume may
be extremely loud.
To use the loudspeaker during a call, press Loudsp..
