19 Internet service
Your phone has a built-in browser you may use
to connect to selected services on the Internet.
You may view weather reports, check news or
flight times, view financial information, and
much more.
You may also save the address of an Internet site as
a bookmark, much the same way you bookmark a
Web page on your personal computer.
Note: To use the browser, you may need to subscribe to additional services.
Also, your service provider may need to configure your phone for browsing
after you have subscribed. This is a network dependent feature. Contact
your service provider for more information.
Service provider’s role
Because wireless Internet content is designed to be viewed from your phone, your
wireless service provider now becomes your wireless Internet service provider as well.
It is likely that your service provider has created a home page and set up your
browser to go to this page when you connect to the Internet. Once at your service
provider’s home page, you will find links to a number of other sites that offer
wireless access.
The information or services you have accessed are stored in the cache of your phone.
A cache is a memory location that is used to store data temporarily. If you have tried
to access or have accessed confidential information requiring passwords, empty the
cache after each use. To empty the cache, select Services > Clear the cache.
Your device may have some bookmarks loaded for sites not affiliated with Nokia.
Nokia does not warrant or endorse these sites. If you choose to access them, you
should take the same precautions for security or content as you would with any
Internet site.
Note: The security icon does not indicate that the data transmission
between the gateway and the content server (or place where the requested
resource is stored) is secure. The service provider secures the data
transmission between the gateway and the content server.
Only install software from sources that offer adequate protection against
harmful software.
• SET UP FOR BROWSING
You should not need to do anything to set up your phone for browsing. Your service
provider usually modifies the appropriate settings when you subscribe to the feature.
Contact your service provider if you have problems using the browser.
