About your device
The wireless device described in this guide is approved for
use on the (E)GSM 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz, and WCDMA
(HSDPA) 850 and 1900 MHz networks. Contact your service
provider for more information about networks.
When using the features in this device, obey all laws and
respect local customs, privacy and legitimate rights of
others, including copyrights.
Not all networks support all features offered in this device.
For instance, video calls, video sharing, push-to-talk, and
instant messaging are not compatible with the networks
in the United States of America.
Copyright protections may prevent some images, music
(including ringing tones), and other content from being
copied, modified, transferred, or forwarded.
Your device supports internet connections and other
methods of connectivity. Like computers, your device may
be exposed to viruses, malicious messages and
applications, and other harmful content. Exercise caution
and open messages, accept connectivity requests,
download content, and accept installations only from
trustworthy sources. To increase the security of your
devices, consider installing, using, and regularly updating
antivirus software, firewall, and other related software on
your device and any connected computer.

than the alarm clock, the device must be switched on. Do
not switch the device on when wireless device use may
cause interference or danger.

Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Excel (Microsoft Office
2000, XP, and 2003). Not all file formats can be viewed or
modified.
During extended operation, such as an active video
sharing session or high-speed data connection, the device
may feel warm. In most cases, this condition is normal. If
you suspect the device is not working properly, take it to
the nearest authorized service facility.

Your device may have preinstalled bookmarks and links for
third-party internet sites. You may also access other third-
party sites through your device. Third-party sites are not
affiliated with Nokia, and Nokia does not endorse or
assume liability for them. If you choose to access such
sites, you should take precautions for security or content.
The images in this guide may differ from your device
display.
Network services
To use the phone you must have service from a wireless
service provider. Many of the features require special
network features. These features are not available on all
networks; other networks may require that you make
specific arrangements with your service provider before
you can use the network services. Your service provider
can give you instructions and explain what charges will
apply. Some networks may have limitations that affect
how you can use network services. For instance, some
networks may not support all language-dependent
characters and services.
Your service provider may have requested that certain
features be disabled or not activated in your device. If so,
these features will not appear on your device menu. Your
device may also have a special configuration such as
changes in menu names, menu order, and icons. Contact
your service provider for more information.
This device supports WAP 2.0 protocols (HTTP and SSL) that
run on TCP/IP protocols. Some features of this device, such
as MMS, browsing, and e-mail require network support for
these technologies.

Software updates
Nokia may produce software updates that may offer
new features, enhanced functions, or improved
performance. You may be able to request these
updates through the Nokia Software Updater PC
application. To update the device software, you need
the Nokia Software Updater application and a
compatible PC with Microsoft Windows 2000, XP, or
Vista operating system, broadband internet access,
and a compatible data cable to connect your device to
the PC.
To get more information and to download the Nokia
Software Updater application, visit
www.nokiausa.com/softwareupdate in the United
States or www.nokia-latinoamerica.com/nsu in Latin
America.
Tip: To check the software version in your device,
enter *#0000# in the standby mode.
Settings
Your device normally has MMS, GPRS, streaming, and
mobile internet settings automatically configured in
the device, based upon 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. See "General settings", p. 145.
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) — This code
(5 digits) can be used to lock the device to avoid
unauthorised use. The factory setting for the lock
code is 12345. To avoid unauthorised use of your
device, change the lock code. Keep the new code
secret and in a safe place separate from your device.
Try entering the code only once, if you forget the
code. If the code you entered is not correct, contact

a Nokia Care point or your service provider for
further instructions.
●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 features in your device increase the demand on
battery power and reduce the battery life time. 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. Turn Bluetooth technology off 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 switches off
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. See "Wireless LAN", p. 96.When Scan
for networks is set to Never, the WLAN availability
icon is not shown in the standby mode. However,
you can still manually scan for available WLAN
networks and connect to WLAN networks as usual.
●If you have set Data counter 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
Data counter 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. See "Maps", p. 40.
●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 UMTS
network. To only use the GSM network, press ,
and select Tools > Settings > Phone >
Network > Network mode > GSM.
