Infrared (Menu 8)
You can set up your phone to receive data through its infrared (IR) port. To use
an IR connection, the device with which you want to establish a connection
must be IrDA compliant. You can send and receive data such as business cards
(names and phone numbers in the phone book) and calendar notes to and from the IR port of your
phone.
Note: Your phone must be switched on to use this function. Do not switch the phone on when wireless
phone use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.
Sending and receiving data via the IR port
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 devices is one
meter at most.
2. To receive data to your phone, select the
Infrared
menu and press
Select
to activate the IR port.
3. The user of the sending phone selects the desired IR function to start data transfer.
If data transfer is not started within two minutes after the activation of the IR port, the connection is
cancelled and will have to be started again.
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.
