1-2 example, when sending or receiving faxes and connecting to remote computers). The phone interface is designed for making and receiving calls quickly. It looks and operates like other Nokia mobile phones (except that the earpiece and microphone are on the backside of the device). The phone interface is switched on and off by pressing the button on the cover. Things to remember IMPORTANT! Do not switch on the phone interface when mobile phone use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.
Chapter 1 - Introduction For access codes that can be changed and are used by both interfaces, you can make the changes via either interface. The communicator interface’s Internet applications use passwords and user names to protect from unauthorised use of the Internet and Internet services. These passwords are changed in the settings of the Internet applications.
