Access codes
If you forget any of the access codes, contact your service
provider.
© 2009 Nokia. All rights reserved. 9
Personal identification number (PIN) code — This code
protects your SIM card against unauthorised use. The PIN
code (4 - 8 digits) is usually supplied with the SIM card. After
three consecutive incorrect PIN code entries, the code is
blocked, and you need the PUK code to unblock it.
UPIN code — This code may be supplied with the USIM card.
The USIM card is an enhanced version of the SIM card and is
supported by 3G mobile phones.
PIN2 code — This code (4 - 8 digits) is supplied with some
SIM cards, and is required to access some functions in your
device.
Lock code (also known as security code) — The lock code
helps you to protect your device against unauthorised use.
The preset code is 12345. You can create and change the code,
and set the device to request the code. Keep the new code
secret and in a safe place separate from your device. If you
forget the code and your device is locked, your device will
require service. Additional charges may apply, and all the
personal data in your device may be deleted. For more
information, contact a Nokia Care Point or your device dealer.
Personal Unblocking Key (PUK) code and PUK2 code — These
codes (8 digits) are required to change a blocked PIN code or
PIN2 code, respectively. If the codes are not supplied with the
SIM card, contact the network service provider whose SIM
card is in your device.
UPUK code — This code (8 digits) is required to change a
blocked UPIN code. If the code is not supplied with the USIM
card, contact the network service provider whose USIM card
is in your device.
International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI)
number — This number (15 or 17 digits) is used to identify
valid devices on the GSM network. Devices that are, for
example, stolen, can be blocked from accessing the network.
The IMEI number for your device can be found under the
battery.

Prolong battery life
Many features in your device increase the demand on battery
power and reduce the battery lifetime. 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.
Deactivate Bluetooth technology 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 deactivates 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.
• If you have set Packet data connection to When
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.
• The Maps application downloads new map information
when you scroll to new areas on the map, which
increases the demand on battery power. You can prevent
the automatic download of new maps.
• If the signal strength of the cellular network varies much
in your area, your device must scan for the available
network repeatedly. This increases the demand on
battery power.
If the network mode is set to dual mode in the network
settings, the device searches for the 3G network. You can
set the device to use only the GSM network. To use only
the GSM network, select Menu > Settings and
Connectivity > Network > Network mode > GSM.
• The backlight of the display increases the demand on
battery power. In the display settings, you can change
the length of the time-out period after which the
backlight is switched off. Select Menu > Settings and
Phone > Display > Light time-out. To adjust the light
sensor that observes lighting conditions and adjusts the
display brightness, in the display settings, select Light
sensor.
• Leaving applications running in the background
increases the demand on battery power. To close the
applications you are not using, if they are not responding,
select Options > Show open apps., and go to the
application using the menu key. Press and hold the menu
key to open the application, and select Options > Exit.

Nokia Switch
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 device.
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, and transfer can be done.
Transfer content for the first time
1 To retrieve data from the other device for the first time,
on your device, select Menu > Settings >
Connectivity > Data transfer > Phone 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 connectivity as the connection
type, 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.
Some earlier Nokia devices may not 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 On your device, select the content you want to transfer
from the other device.
When the transfer has started, you can cancel it and
continue later.
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
Select Menu > Settings > Connectivity > Data transfer >
Phone switch.
After the first transfer, select from the following to start a
new transfer, depending on the model:
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 device to your other device
If you 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 in your device. 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.
