When you take a new device into use, you may have
questions. In addition to those answered in this guide, visit
the product support pages of the Nokia website.
What is the lock code?
Your device is equipped with one or more codes to protect
the device itself or the SIM card against unauthorised use.
Lock code
The lock code (also known as security code) protects your
device against unauthorized use. The preset code is 12345.
You can change the code, and set the device to request the

code.
You must remember the new code, and keep it secret and in
a safe place separate from your device. If you forget the lock
code and your device is locked, you must take the device to
a Nokia authorized service facility and additional charges
may apply. To unlock the device, the software must be
reloaded, and the data you have saved in the device may be
lost.
PIN and PUK codes
If you forget any of the following access codes, contact your
service provider.
● Personal identification number (PIN) code — This code
protects your SIM card against unauthorized 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.
● PIN2 code — This code (4-8 digits) is supplied with some
SIM cards, and is required to access some functions in your
device.
● 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.
Where can I get settings for my
device?
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 also use the Settings wizard application to define the
settings.
See "Settings wizard," p. 18.
How can I transfer content from my
old device?
You can use the Nokia Switch application to copy content such
as phone numbers, addresses, calendar items, and images
from your previous Nokia device to your Nokia 6790 slide.
Your battery has been partially charged at the factory. If the
device indicates a low charge, do the following:
1. Connect the charger to a wall outlet.
2. Connect the charger to the device. The charging port is
behind the black cover.
3. When the device indicates a full charge, disconnect the
charger from the device, then from the wall outlet.
You do not need to charge the battery for a specific length of
time, and you can use the device while it is charging. If the
battery is completely discharged, it may take several minutes
before the charging indicator appears on the display or
before any calls can be made.
Tip: Disconnect the charger from the wall outlet when
the charger is not in use. A charger that is connected
to the outlet consumes power even when it is not
connected to the device.

synchronize data between the devices. Your Nokia 6790
slide 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 Nokia 6790
slide is switched on without a SIM card, the offline profile is
automatically activated, and transfer can be done.

4. From your Nokia 6790 slide, 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 Nokia 6790 slide. The
length of the transfer time depends on the amount of data
to be transferred.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the
government of the United States, which is solely responsible
for its accuracy and maintenance. The accuracy of location
data can be affected by adjustments to GPS satellites made
by the United States government and is subject to change
with the United States Department of Defense civil GPS policy
and the Federal Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be
affected by poor satellite geometry. Availability and quality
of GPS signals may be affected by your location, buildings,
natural obstacles and weather conditions. GPS signals may
not be available inside buildings or underground and may be
impaired by materials such as concrete and metal.
GPS should not be used for precise location measurement,
and you should never rely solely on location data from the
GPS receiver and cellular radio networks for positioning or
navigation.
The trip meter has limited accuracy, and rounding errors may
occur. Accuracy can also be affected by availability and quality
of GPS signals.
Different positioning methods can be enabled or disabled in
positioning settings.
Assisted GPS (A-GPS)
Your device also supports assisted GPS (A-GPS).
A-GPS requires network support.
Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is used to retrieve assistance data over
a packet data connection, which assists in calculating the
coordinates of your current location when your device is
receiving signals from satellites.
When you activate A-GPS, your device receives useful satellite
information from an assistance data server over the cellular
network. With the help of assisted data, your device can
obtain the GPS position faster.
Your device is preconfigured to use the Nokia A-GPS service,
if no service provider-specific A-GPS settings are available.
The assistance data is retrieved from the Nokia A-GPS service
server only when needed.
To disable the A-GPS service, select
GPS data and Options > Positioning settings >
Positioning methods > Assisted GPS > Disable.
You must have an internet access point defined in the device
to retrieve assistance data from the Nokia A-GPS service over
a packet data connection. The access point for A-GPS can be
defined in positioning settings. Only a packet data internet
> Applications >
access point can be used. Your device asks you to select the
internet access point when GPS is used for the first time.
Hold your device correctly
When using the GPS receiver, ensure you do not cover the
antenna with your hand.
Establishing a GPS connection may take from
a couple of seconds to several minutes.
Establishing a GPS connection in a vehicle
may take longer.
The GPS receiver draws its power from the
device battery. Using the GPS receiver may
drain the battery faster.
Tips on creating a GPS connection
Check satellite signal status
To check how many satellites your device has found, and
whether your device is receiving satellite signals, select
Applications and GPS data > Position > Options >
Satellite status.
If your device has found satellites,
a bar for each satellite is shown in
the satellite info view. The longer
the bar, the stronger the satellite
signal. When your device has
received enough data from the
satellite signal to calculate the coordinates of your location,
the bar turns blue.
To view the positions of found satellites, select Chg. view.
Initially your device must receive signals from at least four
satellites to be able to calculate the coordinates of your
location. When the initial calculation has been made, it may
be possible to continue calculating the coordinates of your
location with three satellites. However, the accuracy is
generally better when more satellites are found.
If your device cannot find the satellite signal, consider the
following:
● If you are indoors, go outdoors to receive a better signal.
● If you are outdoors, move to a more open space.
● Ensure that your hand does not cover the GPS antenna of
your device.
● If the weather conditions are bad, the signal strength may
be affected.
● Some vehicles have tinted (athermic) windows, which
may block the satellite signals.
Position requests
You may receive a request from a network service to receive
your position information. Service providers may offer
information about local topics, such as weather or traffic
conditions, based on the location of your device.
When you receive a position request, the service that is
making the request is displayed. Select Accept to allow your
position information to be sent or Reject to deny the request.
Landmarks
Select > Applications > Landmarks.
With Landmarks, you can save the position information of
specific locations in your device. You can sort the saved
locations into different categories, such as business, and add
other information to them, such as addresses. You can use
your saved landmarks in compatible applications, such as GPS
data.
GPS coordinates are expressed in the degrees and decimal
degrees format using the international WGS-84 coordinate
system.
Select Options and from the following:
● New landmark — Create a new landmark. To make a
positioning request for your current location, select
Current position. To select the location from map, select
Select from map. To enter the position informationmanually, select Enter manually.
● Edit — Edit or add information to a saved landmark (for
example, a street address).
● Add to category — Add a landmark to a category in
Landmarks. Select each category to which you want to add
the landmark.
● Send — Send one or several landmarks to a compatible
device. Your received landmarks are placed in the Inbox
folder in Messaging.
You can sort your landmarks into preset categories, and
create new categories. To edit and create new landmark
categories, open the categories tab, and select Options >
GPS data is designed to provide route guidance information
to a selected destination, position information about your
current location, and traveling information, such as the
approximate distance to the destination and the
approximate duration of travel.
The coordinates in the GPS are expressed in degrees and
decimal degrees format using the international WGS-84
coordinate system.
To use GPS data, the GPS receiver of your device must initially
receive position information from at least four satellites to
calculate the coordinates of your location. When the initial
calculation has been made, it may be possible to continue
calculating the coordinates of your location with three
satellites. However, the accuracy is generally better when
more satellites are found.
Route guidance
Select
> Applications > GPS data and Navigation.
Start the route guidance outdoors. If started indoors, the GPS
receiver may not receive the necessary information from the
satellites.
Route guidance uses a rotating compass on the device
display. A red ball shows the direction to the destination, and
the approximate distance to it is shown inside the compass
ring.
Route guidance is designed to show the straightest route and
the shortest distance to the destination, measured in a
straight line. Any obstacles on the route, such as buildings
and natural obstacles, are ignored. Differences in altitude are
not taken into account when calculating the distance. Route
guidance is active only when you move.
To set your trip destination, select Options > Setdestination and a landmark as the destination, or enter the
latitude and longitude coordinates.
To clear the destination set for your trip, select Stop
navigation.
Retrieve position information
Select
> Applications > GPS data and Position.
In the position view, you can view the position information
of your current location. An estimate of the accuracy of the
location is displayed.
To save your current location as a landmark, select Options >Save position. Landmarks are saved locations with more
information, and they can be used in other compatible
applications and transferred between compatible devices.
Trip meter
Select
> Applications > GPS data and Trip distance.
The trip meter has limited accuracy, and rounding errors may
occur. Accuracy can also be affected by availability and quality
of GPS signals.
To turn trip distance calculation on or off, select Options >Start or Stop. The calculated values remain on the display.
Use this feature outdoors to receive a better GPS signal.
To set the trip distance and time and average and maximum
speeds to zero, and to start a new calculation, select
Options > Reset. To set the trip meter and total time to zero,
select Restart.
