1. Safety At A Glance
Read these simple guidelines before using your
phone. Failure to comply with these guidelines may
be dangerous or illegal.
For more detailed safety information, see
“Important Safety Information” on page 78.

Road Safety Comes First
Don’t use a hand-held phone while driving; park the
vehicle first.

require assistance, contact your local service facility.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation
is subject to the condition that this device does not cause
harmful interference.

Using this Guide
The wireless phone described in this guide is approved for use
in TDMA/AMPS networks.
A number of features included in this guide are called Network
Services. They are special services provided by wireless service
providers. Before you can take advantage of any of these
Network Services, you must subscribe to the service(s) from
your home service provider and obtain instructions for their use.

Updates
The latest version of this Owner’s Manual may be found on
Nokia’s World Wide Web site at www.nokia.ca.

Disclaimer
It’s possible that you may not be able to activate your phone on
all wireless systems. Please ask your service provider for
details.

2. Getting Connected
Before you can use your new phone, you need to attach
and charge the battery. This section will help familiarize
you on how, and when, to charge your battery.
Attaching your battery
Simply place the battery in the grooves on the back of
your phone. Then slide the battery upward until it clicks.

Note: Use only those batteries approved by the phone
manufacturer and recharge your battery only with the chargers
approved by the manufacturer.
See “Important Battery Information” on page 6.

Removing the battery
Note: Switch off the phone before removing the battery!

1. Press and hold
the button at the top
of the battery.
2. Slide the battery
toward the bottom
of the phone.
3. Lift the battery off
the phone.

Charging your new battery
Your phone can be used with either a rechargeable
Li-Ion or NiMH battery. Note that a new battery’s full
performance is achieved only after two or three
complete charge and discharge cycles.
With your phone on or off, connect the charger to a
standard 120V AC outlet. Then connect the lead from
the charger to the bottom of your phone or place it on
a charging stand.
When the battery begins charging, your phone will beep
once and the battery strength indicator on the right side
of the display will scroll.
Note: If the battery is totally empty, it may take a few minutes
before the charging indication appears on the display.

If your phone displays Not charging, charging is
suspended. Check that the battery is not connected to
a non-approved charging device. If the battery is very
hot or cold, wait for a while; charging will automatically
resume after the battery is restored to its normal
operating state. If charging still fails, contact your dealer.
When is a good time to charge?
You can charge your battery anytime. If you have a
NiMH battery, you should allow it to completely
discharge once in a while.
When your phone beeps once and displays Battery low,
you only have a couple of minutes of talk time remaining.
The repetition rate of these battery-low warnings depend on the remaining battery capacity and the battery
condition. These warnings are more frequent when
you’re in a call.
Note: The phone will not give you the warning tone under
certain conditions. See “Warning and game tones” on page 69.

Once all the power has drained from your battery, you’ll
hear three beeps with the message Recharge battery on
your display. At this point, your phone will switch itself
off and you’ll need to recharge your battery.
4

When is charging complete?
When the charge indicators stop scrolling, your
phone is considered fully charged. However, a
slight increase in charge may occur if your
phone is left connected to the charger for a
while. This is called “trickle charge.”
Charging times depend on the type of battery and
charger used.
For approximate charging and operating times, see “Standby
and Talk Times” on page 73.

Can you make calls while charging?
Yes, you can. But your battery may not charge while a
call is in progress. Charging should resume once you
end the call.
Discharging NiMH batteries
A NiMH battery lasts longer and performs better if you
fully discharge it from time to time. To discharge the
battery, leave your phone switched on until the battery
is drained. The phone will display several messages that
the battery is low and that you need to recharge it; just
ignore them. Do not attempt to discharge the battery by
any other means.

Important Battery Information
•

The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of
times but it will eventually wear out. When the operating
time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than
normal, it is time to buy a new battery.

•

Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer
and recharge your battery only with the chargers
approved by the manufacturer. When a charger is not in
use, disconnect it from the power source. Do not leave
the battery connected to a charger for longer than a
week, since overcharging may shorten its life. If left
unused a fully charged battery will discharge itself over
time.

•

(NiMH batteries only) For good operation times, discharge
the battery from time to time by leaving your phone
switched on until it turns itself off (or by using the battery
discharge facility of any approved accessory available for
your phone). Do not attempt to discharge the battery by
any other means.

•

Temperature extremes will affect the ability of your battery
to charge: allow it to cool down or warm up first.

•

Use the battery only for its intended purpose.

•

Never use any charger or battery which is damaged or
worn out.

•

Do not short circuit the battery. Accidental short circuiting
can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip, or pen)
causes direct connection of the + and - terminals of the
battery (metal strips on the back of the battery), for
example when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or
purse. Short circuiting the terminals may damage the
battery or the connecting object.

•

Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a
closed car in summer or winter conditions, will reduce the
capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the
battery between 59º F and 77º F (15º C and 25º C).
A phone with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not
work, even when the battery is fully charged. NiMH batteries’ performance is particularly limited in temperatures
below 14º F (-10º C). Li-Ion batteries’ performance is
particularly limited in temperatures below 32º F (0º C).

•

Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!

•

Dispose of used batteries in accordance with any local
regulations.

3. The Basics
You have purchased a powerful phone, with lots of
features. Read this section for some very basic
information on how to use your phone.
A more comprehensive description of your phone is
covered in “Features A to Z” starting on page 16.
Switching the phone on and off
Press and hold the
phone on or off.

key for two seconds to switch the

Switching off with the

key

Quickly press the
key (Switch off! will appear,
highlighted) then press OK.
Note: This method is available in all profiles except Headset and
Car.
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other
telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.
TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: As with any other radio
transmitting device, do not touch the antenna unnecessarily
when the phone is switched on. Contact with the antenna
affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a
higher power level than otherwise needed.
WARNING! Do not switch on the phone when wireless phone
use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.
See “Safety At A Glance” on page 1 for more information.

Get a good signal
Your phone operates on radio waves, and the quality of
radio reception depends entirely on the strength of the
radio signal in your area.
This radio coverage is maintained by a wireless network
and the quality of calls on a wireless phone depends on
the strength of the wireless radio signal.

Checking signal strength
When you are at the start screen (see page 12)
or in a call, the signal strength is indicated by
the indicators on the left side of your phone’s
display. These indicators scroll as the strength
of the signal increases and decreases.
Increasing your phone’s signal may be easy. Try moving
your phone slightly, or move towards a window if you’re
calling from inside a building.
Making a call
Enter the area code and phone number and press

Editing a number on display
Press V to move the cursor to the left and W to move it

4. Using Your Phone
The first few days you have your phone, play with it to
learn how the menu and submenu system works.
The more you learn how to access these menus and
submenus, the more fun you’ll have with your phone.
This section describes the different methods of using
your phone menus and submenus.
The display
Soft keys
Your phone has two soft keys
located below the display. The
current function is indicated by the
texts appearing directly above
them. Press the corresponding key
under the choice you wish to select.
This illustration shows the phone at the start screen
(see “What is the ‘start screen’?” on page 12). The start
screen always displays Menu on the left and Names on
the right. Menu allows you to access your phone’s
menus and submenus. Names allows you to access
your phone book (see “Phone book” on page 47).
Scroll key
Your phone has a scroll key located just below the
display screen. The scroll key has two arrows on it that
look like V and W. Press these to navigate through your
phone’s menus and submenus, as well as through your
phone book. (See “Phone book” on page 47).
Scroll bar
When you access your phone’s menu and submenus, you will notice a scroll bar at the far right
of the screen. This bar indicates your location in
the menu structure; each “tab” on the bar
represents a different menu item.
11

For example, press Menu once. The scroll bar appears
with the first (top) tab displayed. A different tab appears
each time you press the W or V key to move up and
down through the menu structure. The scroll bar works
the same way with submenus.
Menu & submenu numbering
When you scroll to a menu or submenu, the menu
number and/or submenu number appears on the
display above the scroll bar.
For example, when you scroll to menu 2 (Call log) the
number 2 appears in the top right-hand corner of the
display. If you scroll to menu 4 (Settings), submenu 3
(Security settings), your phone will display 4-3 in the top
right-hand corner.
See “Summary of menu items” on page 14 for a list of your
phone’s features along with their menu locations.
Also, see “Using shortcuts” on page 13.

What is the ‘start screen’?
The start screen appears when you first turn your
phone on, in its idle state.

When you want to get to the start screen, press
at
any time except during a call (unless you want to hang
up).

Note: If you press
when the phone is requesting input
(i.e., a setting, phone number, name, etc.), the phone displays
the start screen and the input is not saved.

Scrolling through the main menu
Press Menu at the start screen. Then press W or V to
reach the desired menu item.
Press Select, Options or OK (whichever appears) to
enter submenus and to choose options.
Press Exit to exit the present menu or Back to go back
one level.

Using shortcuts
This is a quick and easy way to access a menu without
having to scroll through other menus.
Press Menu, then menu number, then submenu
number.
Press the menu and submenu numbers within a couple
of seconds of each other when using this method.
For a summary of your phone’s menu structure, see “Summary
of menu items” on page 14.

Help text
If you’re not sure how a feature works, wait just a few
seconds and help text will appear for most of your
phone’s features. Press More to see the next page of
the text or Back to exit.

IMPORTANT!
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals,
wireless and landline networks, as well as user-programmed
functions which can not guarantee connection in all conditions.
Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone
for essential communications (e.g., medical emergencies).
Remember, to make or receive any calls, the phone must be
switched on and in a service area with adequate wireless 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 wireless service providers.
If certain features are in use (keyguard, restrict calls, etc.), you
may first need to turn those features off before you can make
an emergency call. Consult this document and your local
wireless service provider.
When making an emergency call, remember to give all 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 cut off the call until given
permission to do so.

Note: Please note that if you are charging a battery in the rear
charging slot while another battery occupies the front slot,
please allow an additional two hours for a “maintenance”
charge for the battery in the front slot. Please see page 73 for
charging times for the front charging slot.

If you’re charging a battery in the front charging slot,
charging is indicated by the scrolling battery bars on the
right side of your phone’s display. When the scrolling
stops, the battery is approximately 80% charged.
A battery will be fully charged a couple of hours after
the scrolling stops.
Also, you may notice a light indicator on the stand,
which is used for charging a spare battery. A green light
indicates a battery is at least 80% full; the red light
indicates a battery is charging.

8. Troubleshooting
What if charging fails?
If Not charging is displayed, charging is suspended.
Make sure the battery is connected to an approved
charging device and that the battery is at room temperature. Extreme temperatures, hot or cold, can affect
your battery’s performance and prevent charging.
If charging still fails, disconnect the charger from your
phone. Then reconnect the charger to your phone and
retry. If you still experience charging problems, contact
your dealer and, if necessary, bring your phone in to
have it serviced. Also remember to bring in your battery
and charger.
No service
If you’re outside the wireless service area, No service will
display on your phone. No calls can be made or
received, however, emergency 911 calls may still be
possible.
What if the call doesn’t go through?
Your phone can make and receive calls only when it’s
switched on and in the wireless network’s service area.
No service means that you’re probably outside the wireless service area. No calls can be made or received.
See “Get a good signal” on page 7.
Check call restrictions means calls to the phone number
you tried to call are restricted (see “Restrict calls” on
page 53), or your phone is locked (see “Phone lock” on
page 50).
Note: Check with your service provider for information about
when you need to dial a ‘1’ and/or an area code in addition to
the number.

If you make a mistake dialing

9. Reference Information
Important Safety Information
Traffic Safety
Do not use a hand-held telephone while driving a vehicle.
If using a hand-held phone park the vehicle before conversing.
Always secure the phone in its holder; do not place the phone
on the passenger seat or where it can break loose in a collision
or sudden stop.
The use of an alert device to operate a vehicle’s lights or horn
on public roads is not permitted.
Remember, road safety always comes first!

Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area
and always switch off your phone whenever it is forbidden to
use it, or when it may cause interference or danger.
When connecting the phone or any accessory to another
device, read its user’s guide for detailed safety instructions.
Do not connect incompatible products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are
advised that for the satisfactory operation of the equipment and
for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that the equipment should only be used in the normal operating position
(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.

Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 6 inches (20 cm.) 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:
•
Should always keep the phone more than 6 inches (20 cm)
from their pacemaker 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.
•
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, switch off your phone immediately.

Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may 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 wireless phones, may 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 or if you have any questions.
Switch off your phone in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or
health care facilities may be using equipment that could be
sensitive to external RF energy.

Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles (e.g. electronic
fuel injection systems, electronic anti-skid (anti-lock) braking
systems, electronic speed control systems, 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.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Switch off your phone when in any area with 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.
Users are advised to switch off the phone while at a refueling
point (service station). Users are reminded of the need to
observe restrictions on 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. They include 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 may be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty which may apply to the unit.
Check regularly 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
accessories.
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag
inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including both
installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air
bag or in the air bag deployment area. If 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, disrupt the wireless telephone network
and may be illegal.
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension
or denial of telephone services to the offender, or legal action,
or both.

Emergency Calls
IMPORTANT!
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals,
wireless and landline networks as well as user-programmed functions which can not guarantee connection in all conditions.
Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone
for essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies).
Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone must be
switched on and in a service area with 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.

Making an Emergency Call
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on
2. Press the ô key to ready the phone for calls. (Press it
twice if there are still digits on the display.)

3. Key in the emergency number for your present location
(e.g. 911 or other official emergency number). Emergency
numbers vary by location.
4. Press
If certain features are in use (keyguard, restrict calls, etc.), you
may first need to turn those features off before you can make
an emergency call. Consult this document and your local wireless service provider.

When making an emergency call, remember to give all 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 cut off the call until given
permission to do so.

Certification Information (SAR)
THIS MODEL 6160 PHONE MEETS GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure
to radio frequency (RF) energy set by Industry Canada. 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 organisations through periodic and thorough evaluation
of scientific studies. The guidelines include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless
of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit set by the Industry Canada is 1.6 W/kg* Tests for
SAR are conducted using standard operating positions 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 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 base station, the lower the power output
of the phone.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with the Canadian Standard must be shown. The highest
SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear
is 1.46 W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR
levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet
the government requirement for RF exposure.
* The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6
watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of body 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
