about networks.
When using the features in this device,
obey all laws and respect privacy and

services.
Your service provider may have requested

not appear on your device menu. Your
device may also have been specially
configured. This configuration may
include changes in menu names, menu
order, and icons. Contact your service
provider for more information.

■Overview of functions
Your phone provides many functions
that are practical for daily use, such
as a calendar, e-mail application,
clock, alarm clock, XHTML Web
browser, and radio. Your phone also

WMA, AAC, and eAAC+ files
• Enhanced voice dialing and voice
commands

■Access codes
Lock code
The lock code (5 to 10 digits) helps to
protect your phone against
unauthorized use. The preset code is
12345. Change the code, and keep
the new code secret and in a safe
place separate from your phone. To
change the code, and to set the
phone to request the code, see
"Security" on page 71.
If you enter an incorrect lock code
five times in succession, the phone
ignores further entries of the code.
Wait for 5 minutes, and enter the
code again.
When the device is locked, calls may
be possible to the official emergency
number programmed into your
device.
PIN codes
• The personal identification
number (PIN) code and the
universal personal identification
number (UPIN) code (4 to 8
digits) help to protect your SIM
card against unauthorized use.
See "Security" on page 71. The
PIN code is usually supplied with
the SIM card.
• The PIN2 code (4 to 8 digits) may
be supplied with the SIM card
and is required for some
functions.
• The module PIN is required to
access the information in the
security module. The module PIN
is supplied with the SIM card if
the SIM card has a security
module in it.
viii Copyright © 2006 Nokia. All rights reserved.

• The signing PIN is required for the
digital signature. The signing PIN
is supplied with the SIM card if
the SIM card has a security
module in it.
PUK codes
The personal unblocking key (PUK)
code and the universal personal
unblocking key (UPUK) code (8 digits)
are required to change a blocked PIN
code and UPIN code, respectively. The
PUK2 code is required to change a
blocked PIN2 code.
If the codes are not supplied with
the SIM card, contact your local
service provider for the codes.
Barring password
The barring password (4 digits) is
required when using Call barring.
See "Call barring" on page 73. You
can obtain the password from your
service provider.

your service provider or network
operator.
■Configuration settings
service
Before you can use multimedia
messaging, instant messaging, push
to talk, e-mail application,
synchronization, streaming, and the
browser, you must have the proper
configuration settings on your
phone. Your phone may
automatically configure browser,
multimedia messaging, access point,
and streaming settings based on the
SIM card used. You may receive the
settings directly as a configuration
message, which you save to your
phone.
For more information on availability,
contact your network operator,
service provider, or nearest
authorized Nokia dealer.
When you receive a configuration
message, and the settings are not
automatically saved and activated,
1 new message is displayed. Select
Show to open the message. To save
the settings, select Options > Save.
If the phone requests Configuration
settings’ PIN code:, enter the PIN
code for the settings, and select OK.
To receive the PIN code, contact the
service provider.
ixCopyright © 2006 Nokia. All rights reserved.

settings?.
