SIM access profile

With the SIM access profile, you can access the SIM card of your device from

a compatible car kit device. This way, you do not need a separate SIM card

to access SIM card data and connect to the GSM network.
To use the SIM access profile, you need the following:
• Compatible car kit device that supports Bluetooth wireless technology
• Valid SIM card in your device
When the wireless device is in the remote SIM mode, you can only use a

compatible connected enhancement, such as a car kit, to make or receive

calls. Your wireless device will not make any calls, except to the emergency

numbers programmed into your device, while in this mode. To make calls

from your device, you must first leave the remote SIM mode. If the device

has been locked, enter the lock code to unlock it first.
For more information about car kit devices and compatibility with your

device, see the Nokia web site and your car kit user guide.

Use the SIM access profile
1. Select

2. Activate Bluetooth in the car kit.
3. Use your car kit to start a search for compatible devices. For instructions,

see the user guide of your car kit.

4. Select your device from the list of compatible devices.
5. To pair the devices, enter the Bluetooth passcode shown on the display

of the car kit to your device.

Tip: If you have already accessed the SIM card from the car kit with

the active user profile, the car kit searches automatically for a device

with the SIM card. If it finds your device, and automatic authorisation

is activated, the car kit automatically connects to the GSM network

when you switch on the car ignition.

When you activate the remote SIM access profile, you can use applications

on your device that do not need network or SIM services.
To make connections between your device and the car kit without separate

acceptance or authorisation, select

and open the paired devices tab. Scroll to the car kit, press the scroll key, and

enter the Bluetooth passcode. When the device asks to make the connection

automatic, select

Wireless LAN

Some places, like France, have restrictions on the use of wireless LAN. Check

with your local authorities for more information.
Your device can detect and connect to a wireless local area network (WLAN).

To use WLAN, a network must be available in the location and your device

must be connected to it.

WLAN connections

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 WLAN, you must create an internet access point in a WLAN. Use the

access point for applications that need to connect to the internet. A WLAN

connection is established when you create a data connection using a WLAN

access point. The active WLAN connection is ended when you end the data

connection. You can also end the connection manually.

See "Connection

manager," p. 35.

You can use WLAN during a voice call or when packet data is active. You can

only be connected to one WLAN access point device at a time, but several

applications can use the same internet access point.
When the device is in the Offline profile, you can still use WLAN, if available.

Remember to comply with any applicable safety requirements when

establishing and using a WLAN connection.
If you move the device to another location within the WLAN and out of range

of a WLAN access point, the roaming functionality can automatically connect

your device to another access point that belongs to the same WLAN. As long

as you remain within range of access points that belong to the same

network, your device can stay connected to the network.

Tip: To check the unique media access control (MAC) address that

identifies your device, for example to configure the MAC address of

your device to a WLAN router, enter *#62209526# on the device

keypad. The MAC address is shown on the device display.

See WLAN availability

To have your device show WLAN availability, select

Menu

If WLAN is available, is shown on the display.

Tip: You can also scan for networks in range.

WLAN wizard

Select

Menu

>

WLAN wiz.

.

The WLAN wizard helps you find and connect to a wireless LAN. When you

open the application, your device starts to scan for available WLANs and lists

them.
To update the list of available WLANs, select

Options

>

Refresh

.

To start or continue browsing the web using the access point of the WLAN,

scroll to the desired network, and select

Options

>

Start Web browsing

or

Cont. Web browsing

.

To disconnect the active connection to the WLAN, select

Options

>

Disconnect WLAN

.

To view the details of the WLAN, select

To save the access point of the WLAN, select

.

Always enable one of the available encryption methods to increase the

security of your WLAN connection. Using encryption reduces the risk of

unauthorised access to your data.

Use the wizard in the active standby mode
In the active standby mode, the WLAN wizard shows the status of your WLAN

connections and network searches. To view the available options, scroll to

the row showing the status, and press the scroll key. Depending on the

status, you can start the Web browser using a WLAN connection, disconnect

from a WLAN, search for WLANs, or set the network scanning on or off.
If WLAN scanning is off and you are not connected to any WLAN,

WLAN

scanning off

is displayed in the active standby mode. To set scanning on

and search for available WLANs, scroll to the row showing the status, and

press the scroll key.
