GPRS).

1.4 The three areas of operation

Your M131 has three distinct areas of operation and each of these three areas can be selected from the

standby screen:

To make calls from the standby screen, simply start dialling a number. To answer an incoming call,

press the green button. In addition there are many more in-call options and these are discussed in the

next section.

Browser applications are generally accessed via the WAP Softkeys and chosen by selecting their

entries from a textual Browser menu. Some Browser functions can also be accessed via the graphical

main menu.

• Main applications (e.g. Phonebook, camera, calculator, etc.)

Main applications are generally accessed via the Menu Softkeys and chosen by selecting their icons
