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.
