Phonebook 27

6 • Phonebook
All operations described in this chapter require the
relevant Phonebook, whether in the SIM or in the
phone to be selected.
Your mobile phone has two phonebooks. The SIM
phonebook is located on the SIM card and the
number of entries depends on the card capacity.The
second phonebook is built into the mobile’s memory
and can hold up to 299 names.
The SIM card capacity depends on the type of card you
have. Please check with your local dealer for full
information on this subject.
The phonebook located on your phone shares the mobile
capacity and memory with other features. As such, they
are inter-dependent: the more names you create, the less
events you can store and vice-versa. 299 is the
maximum number of names and events cards, provided
that other features (memos, sounds, pictures, etc.) are
not using a significant amount of the phone’s memory.
The
Phonebook
menu allows you to select one of the
two available phonebooks: the one on your SIM card
or the one in your phone. When entering new names
in one of the
Phonebooks
, they will only be added to
the one you have selected.
The
Delete all
option does NOT apply to the SIM
phonebook.
Copy all to phone
will copy the content of your SIM
card into your phone. Selecting this option twice will
duplicate all the names.
If you are using a SIM card for the first time, follow
the standard SIM card installation procedure as
