To view frequently asked questions about your device, see the product support

pages at www.nokia.com/support.
Q: What is my password for the lock, PIN, or PUK codes?

A: The default lock code is 12345. If you forget the lock code, contact your device

dealer. If you forget a PIN or PUK code, or if you have not received such a code,

contact your network service provider.

For information about passwords, contact your access point provider, for example,

a commercial internet service provider (ISP) or network service provider.

Q: How do I close an application that is not responding?

A: Press and hold the menu key.

Q: Why do images look smudgy?

A: Ensure that the camera lens protection windows are clean.

Q: Why do missing, discoloured, or bright dots appear on the screen every

time I switch on my device?

A: This is a characteristic of this type of display. Some displays may contain pixels

or dots that remain on or off. This is normal, not a fault.

Q: Why can’t I find my friend’s device while using Bluetooth connectivity?

A: Check that both devices are compatible, have activated Bluetooth connectivity,

and are not in hidden mode. Check also that the distance between the two devices

is not over 10 metres (33 feet) and that there are no walls or other obstructions

between the devices.

Q: Why can’t I end a Bluetooth connection?

A: If another device is connected to your device, you can end the connection from

the other device or deactivate Bluetooth connectivity in your device. Select

Q: Why can't I see a wireless LAN (WLAN) access point even though I know I'm

within its range?

A: The WLAN access point may use a hidden service set identifier (SSID). You can

only access networks that use a hidden SSID if you know the correct SSID, and have

created a WLAN internet access point for the network on your Nokia device.

Q: How do I turn the wireless LAN (WLAN) off on my Nokia device?

A: The WLAN on your Nokia device turns off when you are not connected or trying

to connect to another access point, or not scanning for available networks. To

further reduce battery consumption, you can specify that your Nokia device does

not scan, or scans less often, for available networks in the background. The WLAN

turns off in between background scans.

To change the background scan settings, do the following:
