WARNING: Do not switch the phone on when wireless phone use is prohibited or when it 
may cause interference or danger.
You can set up the phone to receive data through its infrared (IR) port. To use an IR 
connection, the device with which you want to establish a connection must be 
IrDA compliant. You can send or receive data such as business cards and calendar 
notes to or from a compatible phone or data device (for example, a computer) via 
the IR port of your phone.
Do not point the IR (infrared) beam at anyone's eye or allow it to interfere with other IR 
devices. This device is a Class 1 Laser product.
Sending and receiving data via IR
• Ensure that the IR ports of the sending and receiving devices are pointing at 
each other and that there are no obstructions between the devices. The 
preferable distance between the two devices in an infrared connection is one 
meter at most.
• To activate the IR port of your phone to receive data via IR, press 
Menu
, and 
select

 and

.
• The user of the sending phone selects the desired IR function to start data 
transfer.
If data transfer is not started within two minutes after the activation of the IR 
port, the connection is cancelled and has to be started again.
