Loudspeaker

Your game deck has a loudspeaker for handsfree use. To

locate the loudspeaker, see the picture of the different

keys and parts in the Quick Start guide. The loudspeaker

allows you to speak and listen to the game deck from a

short distance without having to hold the game deck to

your ear, for example, having it on a table nearby. The

loudspeaker can be used during a call, with sound

applications, and when viewing multimedia messages.

RealOne Player™ uses the loudspeaker by default when

you watch a video. Using the loudspeaker makes it easier

to use other applications while in a call.

Activating the loudspeaker

To change to using the loudspeaker during an already

active call, select Options→Activate loudsp.. A tone is

played, is shown in the navigation bar, and the volume

indicator changes.

Important: Do not hold the game deck near to your

ear when the loudspeaker is in use, because the volume

may be extremely loud.

General information

The loudspeaker needs to be activated separately each

time for phone calls, but the sound applications such as

Composer and Recorder use the loudspeaker by default.

Turning off the loudspeaker

• When you have an active call or music is playing,

select Options→Activate handset.

Attaching and using the headset

You can listen to the FM Radio or the Music player in your

game deck with the supplied stereo headset HDD-2. To

make a call use the keypad. Once the call is established

you can use the headset to speak and listen to the other

party.

To connect the HDD-2 headset

Insert the end of the black headset cable into the

connector (1) on the game deck. Similarly, insert the grey

headset cable into the connector (2).

The headset lead functions as the antenna of the radio, so

WARNING! Listening to music at a high volume

may damage your hearing. To adjust the volume level

when a headset is connected to your game deck, press

or .

WARNING! When using a headset your ability to

hear outside sounds is reduced. Do not use a headset

where it can endanger your safety.

General information

To use the headset to receive calls

To answer a call while using the headset, press the remote

control button (3) which is located in the microphone part

of the headset. To end the call, again press the same

button.

Attaching and using the supplied

cables

With the sales package, you receive two cables that you

can use with your game deck.

1You can connect your game deck to a compatible

external audio system (for example, CD player) by using

the supplied ADE-2 Audio Line In Cable (3).

Note: Recording should be monitored from the

headset socket on the external device. Adjust the

volume on the external device so that there is no

distortion.

2You can use the Nokia Audio Manager to handle your

sound files. To attach the game deck to a compatible

PC, use the supplied DKE-2 USB Mini-B Cable (1). For

information about ‘Nokia Audio Manager’, see p. 34.

3You can connect your game deck to your own

headphones by using the supplied ADA-2 Adapter

Cable (2).

Important! Install the Nokia Audio Manager PC

software from the CD-ROM to your PC before

connecting the supplied DKE-2 USB Mini-B Cable.

Shared memory

The following features in your game deck use shared

memory: games, contacts, text messages, multimedia

messages, images and ringing tones, RealOne Player™,

calendar and to-do notes, and downloaded applications.

Using any of these features leaves less memory for other

features. This is especially true with heavy use of any of

the features. For example, installing many games or saving

many images can use all of the shared memory and your

game deck displays that the memory is full. In this case,

delete some of the games, images or other entries

reserving the shared memory.

General information

Note: Music tracks are stored on the memory card

and therefore do not use the shared memory of the

game deck.
