This phone is compliant with Bluetooth Specification 1.1 which supports the
following Bluetooth profiles: Serial Port Profile, Dial-up Networking Profile,
Object Push Profile, File Transfer Profile (server), Headset Profile. Handsfree Profile
is supported by Specification 1.0 and SIM Access Profile by version 0.95.

To ensure interoperability between Bluetooth devices, use Nokia- approved
accessories for this model. Check with the manufacturers of other Bluetooth
devices to determine their compatibility with this phone. In some countries, there
may be restrictions on using Bluetooth devices. Check with your local authorities.

The SIM Access Profile profile allows you to connect to compatible devices, such
as the Nokia car enhancement RAN 610. When the SIM Access Profile profile is
active, the phone is disconnected from the GSM network, and thus, all phone
functions are deactivated.

Note: Using Bluetooth consumes the battery and the phone's operating time will
be reduced. Be careful not to let it run in the background when performing other
operations with your phone.

Infrared

The phone has an infrared port that you can use for connecting your phone to
another IrDA compliant device. You can send or receive data such as business
cards and calendar notes to or from a compatible phone or data device (for
example a computer).

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.

Sending and receiving data via IR
• 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 infrared connection should
be one metre at most.

(E)GPRS

GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is a network service that allows mobile
phones to be used for sending and receiving data over an Internet Protocol (IP)-
based network.

EGPRS (Enhanced GPRS), also known as EDGE (Enhanced Data Rates for Global
Evolution) is similar to GPRS but it enables faster connection. For more
information on availability of (E)GPRS and data transfer speed, contact your
network operator or service provider.

The applications that may use (E)GPRS are multimedia, chat and text messaging,
browsing sessions, e-mail, remote synchronisation, Java application downloading
and the PC dial-up (for example, Internet and e-mail).

Before you can use (E)GPRS technology:

• Contact your network operator or service provider for availability and

subscription to the (E)GPRS service.

• Save the (E)GPRS settings for each of the applications used over (E)GPRS.

For information on pricing, contact your network operator or service provider.

Note that when you have selected GPRS as a data bearer, the phone uses EGPRS
instead of GPRS if this is available in the network. You cannot select between
EGPRS and GPRS but for some applications you may be able to select either GPRS
or

GSM data

(CSD, Circuit Switched Data).
