Sidelit subject. Strong side light gives a dramatic  
effect but may be too harsh, resulting in too much  
contrast.  
Light source in front of the subject. Harsh sunlight  
may cause the subjects to squint their eyes. The  
contrast may also be too high.  
Optimal lighting is found in situations where there is  
plenty of diffused, soft light available, for example, on  
a bright, partially cloudy day or on a sunny day in the  
shadow of trees.  
Background  
Use a simple background. For portraits and other pictures  
with people, avoid having your subject in front of a  
cluttered, complex background that may distract attention  
from the subject. Move the camera, or the subject, when  
these conditions cannot be met. Move the camera closer to  
the object to take clearer portraits.

Wireless LAN  
Your device supports wireless local area network (wireless  
LAN). With wireless LAN, you can connect your device to  
the internet and compatible devices that have wireless  
LAN. For information about using your device with other  
compatible UPnP devices through wireless LAN, see ‘Home  
network with Gallery’, p. 51 and ‘Home network with  
music player’, p. 21.  
To use wireless LAN, you must create an internet access  
point (IAP) in a wireless LAN. Use the access point for  
applications that need to connect to the internet. See  
‘Wireless LAN access points’, p. 71.  
Important: Always enable one of the available  
encryption methods to increase the security of your  
wireless LAN connection. Using encryption reduces the risk  
of unauthorized access to your data.  
To use wireless LAN, a wireless LAN must be available in  
the location and your device must be connected to the  
wireless LAN.  
Some places, like France, have restrictions on the use of  
wireless LAN. Check with your local authorities for more  
information.  
A wireless LAN connection is established when you create  
a data connection using a wireless LAN internet access  
point. The active wireless LAN connection ends when you  
close the last application using the connection. To end all  
the connections simultaneously, see ‘Connection

network.  
Important security information  
When you configure your wireless LAN home network,  
enable an encryption method on your access point device,  
then on the other devices you intend to connect to your  
home network. Refer to the documentation of the devices.  
Keep any passcodes secret and in a safe place separate  
from the devices.  
The home network uses the security settings of the  
wireless LAN connection. Use the home network feature in  
a wireless LAN infrastructure network with a wireless LAN  
access point device and encryption enabled.

Voice dialing  
Your device supports enhanced voice commands.  
Enhanced voice commands are not dependent on the  
104  
             
speaker’s voice, so the user does not record voice tags in

entries in contacts, and compares the spoken voice tag to  
it. The voice recognition in the device adapts to the main  
user’s voice to recognize the voice commands better.

saved on the contact card. To listen to the synthesized  
voice tag, open a contact card, and select Options > Play  
voice tag.  
If several numbers are saved under the name, the device  
selects the default number if it has been set. Otherwise the  
device selects the first available number of the following:  
Mobile, Mobile (home), Mobile (business), Telephone,  
Tel. (home), and Tel. (business).  
Make a call with a voice tag  
Note: Using voice tags may be difficult in a noisy  
environment or during an emergency, so you should not  
rely solely upon voice dialing in all circumstances.  
Video calls  
When you make a video call (network service), you can see  
a real-time, two-way video between you and the recipient  
of the call. The live video image, or video image captured  
by the camera in your device is shown to the video call  
recipient.  
When you use voice dialing, the loudspeaker is in use. Hold  
the device at a short distance away when you say the voice  
tag.

), in which  
case you only hear the sound and may see a still image or  
a grey background graphic.  
The loudspeaker is active when you activate Video  
sharing. If you do not want to use the loudspeaker for the  
voice call while you share video, you can also use a  
compatible headset.  
To change between showing video or hearing only sound,  
select Options > Enable or Disable > Sending video,

Video sharing requirements  
Because Video sharing requires a UMTS connection, your  
ability to use Video sharing depends on the UMTS network  
availability. Contact your service provider for more  
information on the service and network availability, and  
fees associated with using this service.  
Person-to-person connection settings  
A person-to-person connection is also known as a Session  
Initiation Protocol (SIP) connection. The SIP profile settings  
must be configured in your device before you can use  
Video sharing.  
To use Video sharing you must do the following:  
Ensure that your device is set up for person-to-person  
connections. See ‘Settings’, p. 107.  
Ask your service provider for the SIP profile settings, and  
save them in your device.  
Your service provider may send you the settings over the  
air or give you a list of the needed parameters.  
Ensure you have an active UMTS connection and are  
within UMTS network coverage. See ‘Settings’, p. 107.  
If you start the sharing session while you are within  
UMTS network coverage and a handover to GSM  
occurs, the sharing session is discontinued, but your  
voice call continues. You cannot start Video sharing if  
you are not within UMTS network coverage.  
Ensure that both the sender and recipient are  
registered to the UMTS network. If you invite someone  
to a sharing session and the recipient’s device is not  
within UMTS network coverage, or does not have Video  
sharing installed or person-to-person connections set  
up, the recipient does not know that you are sending an  
invitation. You receive an error message that the  
recipient cannot accept the invitation.  
If you know a recipient’s SIP address, you can enter it on  
the person’s contact card. Press  
, select Contacts, and  
open the contact card (or start a new card for that person).  
Select Options > Add detail > SIP or Share view. Enter the  
SIP address in the format username@domainname (you  
can use an IP address instead of a domain name).  
If you do not know a SIP address for the contact, you can  
also use the phone number of the recipient including the  
country code, for example +358, to share video (if  
supported by the network service provider).  
UMTS connection settings  
To set up your UMTS connection, do the following:  
Contact your service provider to establish an  
agreement for you to use the UMTS network.  
107  
 
Ensure that your UMTS access point connection  
settings are configured properly. For help, see  
‘Connection’, p. 120.

may need to convert the video clip into a suitable  
format to be able to share it. Clip must be converted  
for sharing. Continue? is displayed. Select OK.  
If the contact information of the recipient is saved in  
Contacts, and the contact has several SIP addresses or  
phone numbers including the country code, select the  
desired address or number. If the SIP address or phone  
number of the recipient is not available, enter the SIP  
address or the phone number of the recipient including  
the country code, and select OK to send the invitation.  
3 Sharing begins automatically when the recipient  
accepts the invitation.  
To save the live video you shared, select Save to accept the  
Save shared video clip? query. The shared video is saved

even if the certificate should be valid, check that the  
current date and time in your device are correct.  
Before changing any certificate settings, you must make  
sure that you really trust the owner of the certificate and  
that the certificate really belongs to the listed owner.  
Certificate management  
View certificate details—check authenticity  
Digital certificates do not guarantee safety; they are used  
to verify the origin of software.  
You can only be sure of the correct identity of a server  
when the signature and the period of validity of a server  
certificate have been checked.  
In the certificate management main view, you can see a  
list of authority certificates that are stored in your device.  
Press  
to see a list of personal certificates, if available.  
You are notified if the identity of the server is not  
authentic or if you do not have the correct security  
certificate in your device.  
Digital certificates should be used if you want to connect  
to an online bank or another site or remote server for  
actions that involve transferring confidential information.  
They should also be used if you want to reduce the risk of  
viruses or other malicious software and be sure of the  
authenticity of software when downloading and installing  
software.  
To check certificate details, scroll to a certificate, and  
select Options > Certificate details. When you open  
certificate details, the validity of the certificate is checked,  
and one of the following notes may be displayed:  
Certificate not trusted—You have not set any  
application to use the certificate. See ‘Change the trust  
settings’, p. 117.  
Important: Even if the use of certificates makes the  
risks involved in remote connections and software  
installation considerably smaller, they must be used  
correctly in order to benefit from increased security. The  
existence of a certificate does not offer any protection by  
itself; the certificate manager must contain correct,  
authentic, or trusted certificates for increased security to  
be available. Certificates have a restricted lifetime. If  
“Expired certificate” or “Certificate not valid yet" is shown  
Expired certificate—The period of validity has ended  
for the selected certificate.  
Certificate not valid yet—The period of validity has  
not yet begun for the selected certificate.  
Certificate corrupted—The certificate cannot be used.  
Contact the certificate issuer.

terminals of the battery. (These look like metal strips on the  
battery.) This might happen, 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.  
Charging and discharging  
Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The battery  
can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will  
eventually wear out. When the talk and standby times are  
noticeably shorter than normal, replace the battery. Use only  
Nokia approved batteries, and recharge your battery only with  
Nokia approved chargers designated for this device.  
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 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). A device with a hot  
or cold battery may not work temporarily, even when the  
battery is fully charged. Battery performance is particularly  
limited in temperatures well below freezing.  
If a replacement battery is being used for the first time or if  
the battery has not been used for a prolonged period, it may  
be necessary to connect the charger, then disconnect and  
reconnect it to begin charging the battery.  
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode.  
Batteries may also explode if damaged. Dispose of batteries  
according to local regulations. Please recycle when possible.  
Do not dispose as household waste.  
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the device  
when not in use. Do not leave a fully charged battery  
connected to a charger, since overcharging may shorten its  
lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its  
charge over time.  
Do not dismantle or shred cells or batteries. In the event of a  
battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with  
the skin or eyes. In the event of such a leak, flush your skin or  
eyes immediately with water, or seek medical help.  
If the battery is completely discharged, it may take several  
minutes before the charging indicator appears on the display  
or before any calls can be made.  
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any  
charger or battery that is damaged.

an authorized Nokia dealer, and inspect the hologram label  
using the following steps:  
What if your battery is not authentic?  
If you cannot confirm that your Nokia battery with the  
hologram on the label is an authentic Nokia battery, please do  
not use the battery. Take it to the nearest authorized Nokia  
service point or dealer for assistance. The use of a battery that  
is not approved by the manufacturer may be dangerous and  
may result in poor performance and damage to your device  
and its enhancements. It may also invalidate any approval or  
warranty applying to the device.  
Successful completion of the steps is not a total assurance of  
the authenticity of the battery. If you have any reason to  
believe that your battery is not an authentic, original Nokia  
battery, you should refrain from using it, and take it to the  
nearest authorized Nokia service point or dealer for assistance.  
Your authorized Nokia service point or dealer will inspect the  
battery for authenticity. If authenticity cannot be verified,  
return the battery to the place of purchase.

refueling points such as near gas pumps at service stations.  
Observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel  
depots, 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, and areas where the air contains  
chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders.  
You should check with the manufacturers of vehicles using  
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) to  
determine if this device can be safely used in their vicinity.  
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately  
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles such as  
electronic fuel injection systems, electronic antiskid (antilock)  
braking systems, electronic speed control systems, and air bag  
systems. For more information, check with the manufacturer,  
or its representative, of your vehicle or any equipment that has  
been added.  
Only qualified personnel should service the device or install  
the device in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be

Emergency calls  
Certification information (SAR)  
This mobile device meets guidelines for exposure to radio  
waves.  
Important: Wireless phones, including this device,  
operate using radio signals, wireless networks, landline  
networks, and user-programmed functions. Because of this,  
connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed. You  
should never rely solely on any wireless device for essential  
communications like medical emergencies.  
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is  
designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves  
recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines  
were developed by the independent scientific organization  
ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the  
protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.  
To make an emergency call:  
1 If the device is not on, switch it on. Check for adequate  
signal strength.  
The exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of  
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR.  
The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 watts/  
kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of tissue. Tests for  
SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with  
the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in  
all tested frequency bands. The actual SAR level of an  
operating device can be below the maximum value because  
the device is designed to use only the power required to reach  
the network. That amount changes depending on a number of  
factors such as how close you are to a network base station.  
The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of  
the device at the ear is 1.15 W/kg.  
Some networks may require that a valid SIM card is  
properly inserted in the device.  
Press the end key as many times as needed to clear the  
display and ready the device for calls.  
Enter the official emergency number for your present  
location. Emergency numbers vary by location.  
Press the call key.  
2
3
4
If certain features are in use, you may first need to turn those  
features off before you can make an emergency call. If the  
device is in the offline or flight profile mode, you may need to  
change the profile to activate the phone function before you  
can make an emergency call. Consult this guide or your service  
provider for more information.  
Use of device accessories and enhancements may result in  
different SAR values. SAR values may vary depending on  
national reporting and testing requirements and the network  
band. Additional SAR information may be provided under  
product information at www.nokia.com.  
When making an emergency call, give all the necessary  
information as accurately as possible. Your wireless device  
may be the only means of communication at the scene of an  
accident. Do not end the call until given permission to do so.
