connection. You can also connect the phone to a compatible PC using IR or
Bluetooth; and use the phone as a modem to enable connectivity from the PC.

■ Bluetooth connectivity
Bluetooth connectivity enables cost-free wireless connections between
electronic devices within a maximum range of 30 feet. A Bluetooth connection
can be used to send and receive images, texts, voice recordings, video clips, notes,
business cards, and calendar notes. It can also be used to connect wirelessly to
products that use Bluetooth wireless technology, such as computers, Bluetooth
carkits, and Bluetooth headsets. You can synchronize your phone and your PC
using a Bluetooth connection.
Since devices with Bluetooth connectivity communicate using radio waves, your
phone and the other device do not need to be in direct line-of-sight.
The two devices only need to be within a maximum of 30 feet (10 meters) of each
other, although the connection can be subject to interference from obstructions
such as walls or from other electronic devices.
The Bluetooth application consumes the battery and reduces the operating
time of the phone. Take this into account when performing other operations
with your phone.
There may be restrictions on using devices with Bluetooth connectivity. Check
with your local authorities.

To ensure inter operability between other devices supporting Bluetooth technology,
use Nokia approved enhancements for this model. Check with the manufacturers
of other devices to determine their compatibility with this device.
There may be restrictions on using Bluetooth technology in some locations.
Check with your local authorities or service provider.
Features using Bluetooth technology, or allowing such features to run in the
background while using other features, increase the demand on battery power
and reduces the battery life.
Pairing
You can set up a permanent association (pairing) between your phone and
another device with Bluetooth connectivity. Some devices may require pairing
before data transfer can take place.
To pair with a device, you and the owner of the other device must agree on a
passcode of 1–16 numeric characters. The first time you try to connect the
devices, you must each enter the same passcode. The default passcode is 0000.
Once the devices are paired, you will not need to use the passcode again, so there
is no need to remember it.
Paired devices are placed in your paired device list. You can view the list even
when Bluetooth is not active or when the devices in the list are not available
for connection.
To view the paired device list:
1. In the standby mode, select
Menu
>
Connectivity
>
Bluetooth
>
Paired devices
.
2. Scroll to the desired device, and select
Options
and one of the following
Assign short name

Request conn. authorization—Select
No
if you want the phone to connect to
the selected device automatically or

permission first.
Delete pairing
—Delete the pairing to the selected device.
Pair new device
—Search for active devices with Bluetooth connectivity within
range, scroll to the desired device, and select

■ Infrared
You can set up the phone to receive data through its IR port. To use an IR
connection, transmission and reception must be to or from an IR compatible
phone or device.
Do not point the IR (infrared) beam at anyone’s eye or allow it to interfere with
other IR devices. This device is a Class 1 laser product.
Send and receive data
1. Ensure that the IR ports of the sending and receiving devices are pointing at
each other and that there are no obstructions between the devices.
The preferable distance between the two devices in an IR connection is from
3 inches to 3 feet.
