■ WAP services (Menu 10)
In this menu you can access various WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) services
such as banking, online games, and entertainment. These services are specifically
designed for mobile phones and they are maintained by WAP service providers.
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.
Check the availability of WAP services, pricing and tariffs with your network operator and/or the WAP
service provider whose service you want to use. Service providers will also give you instructions on how
to use their services.
The WAP services use Wireless Mark-up Language (WML) on their WAP pages. Web pages using the
Hyper-Text Mark-up Language (HTML) cannot be viewed on your phone.
