1Please make backup copies of all important data to protect against possible loss or alteration.

2When connecting to any other device, read its user guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.

3To avoid any potential loss of data, you should not make or receive calls while synchronizing data between the phone and a PC.

4Do not point the IR beam at anyone’s eyes or allow it to interfere with other IR devices.

INFRARED COMMUNICATIONS

When transferring information between your phone and PC using the various PC Suite applications, an infrared connection between phone and PC is required. The preferable distance between the two devices in an infrared connection is a range of three inches to three feet maximum. There must be no obstructions between the two devices and the IR ports of the two devices have to be pointing at each other.

Your Nokia phone is a Class 1 Laser Product.

Enable infrared communications

It is not necessary to enable infrared communications for users of Windows Millennium Edition (ME) and Windows 2000 prior to using this feature. The infrared port is always active.

If you use Windows 95 or Windows 98, you can use the infrared control panel to activate or deactivate infrared communications. During the PC Suite installation process, the installer application activates infrared communications on your PC. The infrared port on your PC remains active until you deactivate it.

To enable infrared communications on your phone, please refer to the infrared section in your phone’s user guide.

Interruptions to infrared communications

Windows provides visual and audible notification when it senses an interruption to infrared communications between your phone and PC. Windows allows you to re-establish infrared communications between the two devices so it can re-send the data that was being transferred when the interruption occurred.

If the infrared connection between your phone and PC has not been re-established within 15 seconds, a “time-out” occurrs, meaning Windows no longer searches for your phone and terminates the infrared connection.
