Settings

Your device normally has MMS, GPRS, streaming, and mobile internet settings automatically configured, based on your network service provider information. You may have settings from your service providers already installed in your device, or you may receive or request the settings from the network service providers as a special message.

You can change the general settings in your device, such as language, standby mode, display, and keypad lock settings.

Access codes

If you forget any of the access codes, contact your service provider.

Personal identification number (PIN) code — This code protects your SIM card against unauthorised use. The PIN code (4 to 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 UMTS mobile phones.

PIN2 code — This code (4 to 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 operator 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 operator whose USIM card is in your device.

Prolong battery life

Many feat ures i n you r device incr ease the dema nd on b atte ry 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.

Free memory

To view how much space is available for different data types, select Menu > Applications > Office > File mgr..

Many features of the device use memory to store data. The device notifies you if the memory in different memory locations is low.

To free memory, transfer data to a compatible memory card (if available) or to a compatible computer.

To remove data you no longer need, use File manager or open the respective application. You can remove the following:

• Messages in the folders in Messaging and retrieved e-mail messages in the mailbox

• Saved web pages

• Contact information

• Calendar notes

• Applications shown in Application manager that you do

not need

• Installation files (.sis or .sisx) of applications you have installed. Transfer the installation files to a compatible computer.

• Images and video clips in Photos. Back up the files to a compatible computer.
