You can also connect the cable to the desk stand of the device.
Note that you must install the DKU-2 driver to your PC before you can use a cable connection. See the sales package CD-ROM
or www.nokia.com for details.
IP passthrough
You can also use a cable for IP passthrough, where the device uses the Internet connection of a computer. You can use IP
passthrough as you use any Internet access point, for example for browsing or remote synchronization.
Note that you cannot use IP passthrough at the same time as Nokia PC Suite. You can define cable connection settings in
Control panel.
See Cable setup on page 70.
Note that you cannot activate modem if you select IP passthrough in cable connection settings. You must use PC Suite
connection, or IP passthrough overrides PC Suite with no active IP passthrough connection.
Bluetooth
This device is compliant with Bluetooth Specification 1.1 supporting the following profiles: Generic Access Profile, Serial Port
Profile, Dial-Up Networking Profile, Generic Object Exchange Profile, Object Push profile, File Transfer Profile, SIM Access
Profile, and Handsfree Profile. To ensure interoperability between other devices supporting Bluetooth technology, use Nokia
approved enhancements for this model. Check with the manufacturers of other devices to determine their compatibility with
this device.
There may be restrictions on using Bluetooth technology in some locations. Check with your local authorities or service
provider.
Features using Bluetooth technology, or allowing such features to run in the background while using other features, increase
the demand on battery power and reduce the battery life.
Bluetooth technology enables cost-free wireless connections between electronic devices within a maximum range of 10
metres. A Bluetooth connection can be used to send images, videos, texts, business cards, calendar notes, or to connect
wirelessly to devices using Bluetooth technology, such as computers.
Since devices using Bluetooth technology communicate using radio waves, your device and the other devices do not need to
be in direct line-of-sight. The two devices only need to be within a maximum of 10 metres of each other, although the
connection can be subject to interference from obstructions such as walls or from other electronic devices.
When you activate Bluetooth for the first time, you are asked to give a name to your device.
