• ABOUT VOICE MAIL
Voice mail is a network feature that allows callers to leave a voice
message for you when you are not able to take the call.
To use voice mail, you must have:
• A voice mail subscription
• A voice mailbox number
• A temporary password
These items are assigned by your service provider. Your service provider
should also tell you how to record a greeting for your voice mailbox and
how to change the temporary password.
After you obtain this information from your service provider, you must
then save the voice mailbox number to your phone.
Voice mail indicators
When you receive a voice message, your phone lets you know by beeping,
displaying an icon on the screen, or showing a text message. The method
of notification depends upon your carrier.
Additionally, if you receive more than one voice mail message, your phone
may display the number of messages that you have received. Finally, if you
subscribe to two different phone lines, the message would indicate the
line to which the message was addressed.
Note: If you have difficulty using the voice mail feature, contact
your service provider.

• USE VOICE DIALING
Your phone’s voice dialing feature allows handsfree operation while you
place a call. Before using this feature, you need to create entries in the
phone book so you can associate a "voice tag" with a name and number.
Add a voice tag to a phone book entry
To create entries in the phone book, see “Save names, numbers, and e-mail
addresses” on page 41.
1At the Start screen, scroll to the name you want to give a voice tag.
2Press Details, then Options, and scroll to Add voice tag.
3Press Select. The phone displays Press Start, then speak after tone.
4Press Start.
You will hear several beeps, and Please speak now appears. If you’re
using the headset, release the button.

tag.
[ 71 ]
11
If the recording is not successful, your phone displays Voice system error.
Press Options, scroll to Add voice tag, and repeat steps 3 - 5.
Warning: Do not rely only on a voice tag for dialing emergency
numbers. In emergencies, stress causes changes in your voice,
which may keep the phone from recognizing the command.
Notes about voice tags
• Voice tags are not language dependent. Any clearly spoken word or
phrase can serve as a voice tag.
• It’s easier for the phone to differentiate between long, unique voice
tags. For example, you may want to record a person’s first and last
names rather than only the first name.
• Voice tags must be shorter than 2 seconds.
• Voice tags are sensitive to background noise. For best results, record
them in a quiet environment.
• If you delete a name, any associated voice tag is also deleted.
• The recording process stops automatically. Pressing Quit cancels the
recording.
• You can record voice tags while the headset is connected. Simply speak
clearly into the headset microphone when prompted.
• You cannot use the voice tag or voice dialing feature if you are actively
sending or receiving data using the GPRS connection.

• NOTES ON WIRELESS INTERNET ACCESS
This section gives a brief overview of wireless Internet technology.
Technology background
WAP
A technology called Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) is to mobile
devices what the World Wide Web (WWW) is to personal computers. The
mobile community began developing WAP several years ago to provide
access to the Internet for mobile users.
Today, most WAP sites are made up of text and hyperlinks. Some pages
even contain low-resolution graphics, or require data input. Your service
provider and others are free to design WAP sites as they choose, so the
sites are as variable as Web pages on the Internet.
Internet content on your personal computer is called a “web page.”
Internet content on your mobile phone is called a “page,” or “WAP card.”
GPRS
General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) is a technology used to send and
receive data via short bursts or packets over the wireless network. GPRS
allows you to stay connected to the Internet. This feature allows for faster
downloads of information and no time spent completing a dial-up connection.
Applications using GPRS include the WAP browser, text messaging and
dial-up connections for making digital data calls.
[ 111 ]
16
• For information about how to track time spent online, see “Check
data calls need to verify on network with GPRS” on page 51.
• For information about sending messages via GPRS, see “Choose other
message settings” on page 99.
• For information about dial-up connections, refer to “GPRS dial-up
connections” on page 134.
• For availability, pricing, and subscription to GPRS services, contact
your service provider.
The Service provider’s role
Because wireless Internet content is designed to be viewed from your
phone, your wireless service provider now becomes your “wireless Internet
service provider” as well.
It’s likely that your service provider has created a home page and set up your
browser to go to this page when you log on to the Internet. Once at your
service provider’s home page, you’ll find links to a number of other sites.
• SET UP FOR BROWSING
You should not need to do anything to set up your phone for browsing.
Your service provider usually modifies the appropriate settings when you
subscribe to the feature. Contact your service provider if you have problems
using the browser.
• SIGN ON TO THE INTERNET
You use the Services menu to connect to the Internet.
1Press Menu 11 (Services).
2Scroll to Home, then press Select.
Your phone connects to the Internet and to your service provider’s home
page.
If you see the message Check service settings, the phone may not be set
up for browsing. Contact your service provider to make sure that your
phone is configured properly.

The Services menu gives you the options shown in the following list.
Some service providers may have customized the options on the Services
menu. Contact your service provider for more information if any of the
options shown here are not available.
• NAVIGATE THE WIRELESS INTERNET
Since your phone’s screen is much smaller than a computer screen, Internet
content is displayed in a different format than you may be used to seeing.
This section shows simple guidelines for using the phone’s keys to navigate
a WAP site. Examples of how to read a WAP site follow the guidelines.
Choice What it does
Home Starts the browser and takes you to your service
provider’s home page.

20 Reference information
• BATTERIES, CHARGERS, AND ACCESSORIES
This section provides information about the phone’s batteries, accessories,
and chargers. Be aware that the information in this section is subject to
change as the batteries, chargers, and accessories change.
This phone is intended for use when supplied with power from an ACP-7U,
an ACP-8U, LCH-8 or an LCH-9 charger. Other usage could invalidate any
approval given to this apparatus and may be dangerous.
Warning! When you purchase batteries, chargers, and accessories
for your phone, use only batteries, chargers, and accessories that
have received approval from the phone’s manufacturer. The use
of any other type of phone-related hardware may invalidate any approval
or warranty applying to the phone, and could also be dangerous. For
availability of approved batteries, chargers, and accessories, check with
your dealer.
Note: For information on how to charge and recharge your battery,
refer to “Charge the battery” on page 11.
When the battery is fully charged, the indicator will tell you that the
battery is fully charged.
When you are not using a charger, disconnect it from the power source.
Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for more than a week,
since prolonged maintenance charging could shorten its life span. If left
unused, a fully-charged battery will discharge itself over time.
Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge.
Therefore, allow it to cool down or warm up before trying to charge it.
When the battery is running out of power and your phone only has a few
minutes of talk time remaining, a warning tone sounds and the Battery
low message appears briefly. When no more talk time is left, a warning
tone is sounded and the phone switches itself off.
[ 139 ]
20
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur
when a metallic object, like a coin, a clip, or a pen causes a direct
connection of the + and - terminals of the battery, which are metal strips
on the back of the battery.
An example of short-circuiting could occur if you carry a spare battery in
your pocket or purse, where the battery could come into contact with
objects such as a coin. Short-circuiting could damage either the battery
or the connecting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in either
summer or winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the
battery. Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and
77°F).
A phone with a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily, even if the
battery is fully charged. The performance of Li-Ion batteries is particularly
limited in temperatures below 0°C (32°F).
The following list provides guidelines that you can follow:
• When the operating time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably
shorter than normal, buy a new battery.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• Never use any charger or battery that is damaged and/or worn out.
•Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Do not dispose of
batteries by putting them in fire!
• When you disconnect the power cord of any accessory, grasp and pull
the plug, not the cord.
• IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
This section provides additional safety information. A brief overview of
safety can be found in “Safety first” on page 1.
Traffic safety
Do not use a handheld telephone while driving a vehicle. Always park the
vehicle before using the phone.
20
[ 140 ]
After completing your phone conversation, always secure the phone back
into its holder; do not place the phone on the passenger seat or place it
where it can break loose in a collision or during a sudden stop.
Note: The use of an alert device to operate a vehicle’s lights or
horn on public roads is not permitted.
Remember: Safety—Your most important call.
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations that are in force in any area,
and always switch off your phone wherever it is forbidden to use it.
Otherwise, the use of your phone could cause interference or danger.
When connecting the phone or any accessory to another device, read the
associated user guide first and obtain detailed safety instructions.
Note: Do not connect incompatible products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, you are advised that,
for the satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of
personnel, it is recommended that the phone should only be used in the
normal operating position. This position is when the phone is held to your
ear with the antenna pointing over your shoulder.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF)
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against
the RF signals from your wireless phone. The following four subsections
provide more information about this topic.
PACEMAKERS
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of
6 inches (20 cm) should be maintained between a handheld wireless
phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by
and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with
pacemakers:
[ 141 ]
20
• Should always keep the phone more than 6 inches (20 cm) from their
pacemakers when the phone is switched on.
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential
for interference.
Note: If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, switch off your phone immediately.
HEARING AIDS
Some digital wireless phones could interfere with some hearing aids. In
the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service
provider.
OTHER MEDICAL DEVICES
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including cellular phones,
could interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical
devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to
determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Also
contact these authorities if you have any questions.
Switch off your phone in health care facilities or where any posted regulations
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities could be using
equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
VEHICLES
RF signals could improperly affect installed or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles. These could include electronic fuel
injection systems, electronic anti-skid (anti-lock) braking systems, electronic
speed control systems, or air bag systems.
Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle.
You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been
added to your vehicle.
POSTED FACILITIES
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted notices so require.
20
[ 142 ]
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Switch off your phone if you are in any area that has a potentially explosive
atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas
could cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death.
You are advised to switch off the phone while at a refueling point (service
station). And, you are reminded of the need to observe restrictions regarding
the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution
areas), chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often—but not always—
clearly marked. These areas include the following: below deck on boats;
chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum
gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals
or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area
where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Vehicles
Only qualified personnel should service the phone or install the phone in
a vehicle. Faulty installation or service could be dangerous and may
invalidate any warranty that could apply to the unit.
Regularly check that all wireless phone equipment in your vehicle is
mounted and operating properly.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in
the same compartment as the phone, its parts, or its accessories.
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag inflates
with great force. Do not place objects, including both the installed or the
portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. If the in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed
and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
Switch off your phone before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless
telephones in an aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the
aircraft, may disrupt the wireless telephone network, and may be illegal.
Failure to observe these instructions could lead to the suspension or the
denial of telephone services to the offender, or it could result in legal action,
or both scenarios could apply.
[ 143 ]

• EMERGENCY CALLS
IMPORTANT!
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals,
wireless and landline networks, and user-programmed functions.
Because of this, connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed.
Therefore, you should never rely solely on any wireless phone for essential
communications (for example, medical emergencies).
Remember, to make or receive any calls, the phone must be switched on
and be used in a service area that has adequate signal strength. Emergency
calls may not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain
network services and/or phone features are in use. Check with local
service providers.
Always make sure that your phone is properly charged before attempting
any emergency calls. If you allow your battery to become empty, you will
be unable to receive or make calls, including emergency calls. You must then
wait a few minutes after the charging begins to place any emergency calls.
Make an Emergency Call
1If the phone is not on, switch it on.
Some networks may require that a valid SIM card is properly inserted
in the phone.
2Enter the emergency number for your present location (for example,
911 or any other official emergency number—emergency numbers
vary by location).
3Press .
If certain features are in use (Keyguard, fixed dialing, restrict calls, and so
on), you may first need to turn those features off before you can make an
emergency call. Consult this document and your local cellular service
provider.

When making an emergency call, remember to give all of the necessary
information as accurately as possible. Remember that your wireless phone
may be the only means of communication at the scene of an accident—
do not terminate the call until given permission to do so.
CERTIFICATION INFORMATION (SAR)
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of
the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines
and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of
scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency
bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below
the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at
multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna,
the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested
and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by
the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (for example, at the ear and worn on
the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value
for this model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the
[ 145 ]
20
ear is 1.13 W/kg, and when worn on the body, as described in this user
guide, is 1.02 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone
models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements).
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID LJP NSM-9.
For body worn operation, to maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines, use only Nokia-approved accessories. When carrying the
phone while it is on, use the specific Nokia belt-clip that has been tested
for compliance.
Use of non-Nokia-approved accessories may violate FCC RF exposure
guidelines and should be avoided.
*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used
by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of
tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting
requirements and the network band. For SAR information in other regions
please look under product information at www.nokia.com.

• CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should
be treated with care. The suggestions below will help you to fulfill any
warranty obligations and allow you to enjoy this product for many years.
When using your phone, battery, charger, or any accessory:
• Keep it and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small
children.
• Keep it dry. Precipitation, humidity, and liquids contain minerals that
will corrode electronic circuits.
• Do not use or store it in dusty, dirty areas as its moving parts can be
damaged.
• Do not store it in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of
electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store it in cold areas. When the phone warms up to its normal
operating temperature, moisture can form inside the phone, which
could damage the phone's electronic circuit boards.
• Do not attempt to open it. Non-expert handling of the device could
damage it.
• Do not drop, knock or shake it. Rough handling can break internal
circuit boards.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents
to clean it. Wipe it with a soft cloth that has been slightly dampened
in a mild soap-and-water solution.
• Do not paint it. Paint can clog the device’s moving parts and prevent
proper operation.
If the phone, battery, charger, or any accessory is not working properly,
take it to your nearest qualified service facility. The personnel there will
assist you, and if necessary, arrange for service.
[ 147 ] 20
• ACCESSORIES
If you want to enhance your phone’s functionality,
a range of accessories is available for you. You can
select any of these items to help accommodate
your specific communication needs. For availability
of these and other accessories, contact your service
provider.
A FEW PRACTICAL RULES FOR ACCESSORY
OPERATION
• Keep all accessories out of reach of small children.
• When you disconnect the power cord of any accessory, grasp and pull
the plug, not the cord.
• Check regularly that any vehicle-installed accessories are mounted
and are operating properly.
• Installation of any complex car accessories must be made by qualified
personnel only.
Use only batteries, chargers, and accessories that have been approved by
the phone manufacturer. The use of any other types could invalidate any
approval or warranty applying to the phone, and could be dangerous.
Refer to “Batteries, chargers, and accessories” on page 138 for important
battery usage information.
[ 148 ]
