Mobile Internet  
When you are on the move and in need of communica-  
tion and information, Mobile Internet is the answer.  
bile phone specially suited for the demanding user of  
communication tools. Retaining the slim, streamlined  
size that has become associated with the Ericsson fam-  
ily of phones, the I 888 WORLD sets a new standard for  
others to follow.  
Mobile Internet is a service supplied by Ericsson to fa-  
cilitate easy communications and rapid information re-  
trieval, wherever you are. It gives you access to on-line  
customer services, on-line user manuals, and useful in-  
formation when you are out travelling. It allows you to  
down load various communication software which will  
ensure you achieve optimum results from your Ericsson  
products.  
Apart from its unique toughness and extraordinary  
sound quality, the I 888 WORLD comes packed with fea-  
tures that will help you stay ahead. These are just some  
of the highlights:  
With the in-built modem, you can forget all about  
PC Cards. It is already inside your phone, guaran-  
teeing you instant access to your PC, laptop or  
handheld communicator. Wireless if you prefer,  
thanks to its infrared capabilities.  
If you run into any problems, there are help texts con-  
nected to the different Mobile Internet pages.  
The Internet address to Mobile Internet is  
Dual band operation allows you to use your phone  
on the European continent as well as in Africa, the  
Asia/Pacific region and in the Americas.  
To get access to the service you also need a user id and  
a password. The first time you log on, please use the  
following:  
Like the other phones from Ericsson, the I 888 WORLD  
is produced to meet the highest quality standards.

This guide introduces you to your I 888 WORLD and  
shows you how to get the most out of it. Before you  
start, please read the ‘Guidelines for Safe and Efficient  
Use’.  
Password: internet  
Note that you must change user id and password the  
first time you log on to Mobile Internet.  
Please note that some of the functions and services de-  
scribed in this user’s guide are depending on your  
choice of network operator. Should you need additional  
information on how to use them, contact your operator.

General Information  
Operators & Subscription  
work coverage differ depending on your choice of op-  
erator and/or subscription.  
To be able to use your phone, you need to have a sub-  
scription to a network. This is obtained from the net-  
work operator.  
SIM & PIN  
The services included in your subscription depend on  
your choice of operator and/or subscription. Therefore,  
some of the services and functions described in this  
manual may not be accessible to you. If you want a  
complete list of the services included in your subscrip-  
tion, please contact your network operator.  
You will obtain a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card  
with your subscription. The SIM card contains a com-  
puter chip that keeps track of your phone number, the  
services you have ordered from your network operator  
and your Phone Book information, among other things.  
Your SIM card is supplied with a security code or PIN  
(Personal Identity Number), which you need in order to  
gain access to the network. Your PIN may also be re-  
quired when you want to change settings in your  
phone. Furthermore, some operators may have  
ser-vices that require a second PIN, your PIN2. You will  
find your PIN (and PIN2) in the information from your  
operator.  
GSM 900/1900 Dual Band  
The Ericsson I 888 WORLD is a dual band phone, which  
means that you can use your phone in two different  
kinds of networks – the GSM 900 and the GSM 1900  
systems.  
The GSM 1900 system is used in the US and other parts  
of the Americas, and the GSM 900 system is used in  
Europe, the Asia/Pacific region and in some parts of  
Africa. This means that you can use your I 888 WORLD  
on six continents.  
Every time you turn on your phone, it prompts you to  
enter your PIN. If the PIN is entered incorrectly three  
times in a row, the SIM card will be blocked. If this hap-  
pens you can unlock it by using your PUK (Personal Un-  
blocking Key code), which you also get from your op-  
erator.  
Consequently, the I 888 WORLD offers you enhanced  
international roaming, thanks to the additional net-  
works now available when you are out travelling.  
You should be careful with your PIN, since it is your pro-  
tection against unauthorized use of your phone and  
subscription.  
The switching between the two systems is done auto-  
matically, which means that you can use your phone  
without ever having to consider which system is being  
used. This is taken care of by the networks. However,  
you should note that the functions offered and the net-

Press  
to enter the menu system. See inside the cover.  
Preparing Your Phone for Use  
The SIM Card  
 Open the holder.  
When you register as  
a
subscriber with  
a
network  
operator, you obtain a SIM card.  
SIM cards come in two sizes. One is the size of a credit  
card, and the other is considerably smaller (about the  
size of a regular stamp). The I 888 WORLD uses the  
smaller card. Many operators deliver credit card sized  
SIM cards which have a perforated smaller card that you  
can take out easily.  
Before you can use your phone, you must insert the SIM  
card into the phone.  
To Insert the SIM Card  
To insert the SIM card, remove the battery (if attached)  
and follow these steps:  
Ž Slide the SIM card  
into the holder.  
Make certain that the  
cut corner is top  
right.  
Œ Release the SIM card  
holder by sliding it  
in the direction of  
the arrow.  
Press  
to enter the menu system. See inside the cover.  
3
 Close the holder.  
To Remove the Battery  
Make sure that the phone is turned off before removing  
the battery (see next chapter). Then:  
 Lock the holder by  
pressing it down and  
sliding it in the di-  
rection of the arrow  
in the picture.  
Œ Press the catch on  
the bottom of the  
battery.  
 Lift the battery up  
and away from the  
phone.  
The Battery  
Your mobile phone comes with a nickel metal hydride  
(NiMH) battery. The battery is not charged when you  
buy your phone, but there may be enough power to  
turn on the phone. We recommend that you charge the  
battery before you use the phone.  
To Charge the Battery  
Make sure that the battery is attached to the phone.  
Then:  
Œ Connect the charger to the mains. (The box  
contains several plugs. Use the one that fits the  
wall socket.)  
To Attach the Battery to the Phone:  
Œ Place the battery on the back of the phone.  
 Press the battery upwards and against the  
phone until it snaps into place.  
4
Press  
to enter the menu system. See inside the cover.  
A green indicator on the charger lights up. If  
not, make sure you have put the plug into the  
charger correctly. (You may have to press hard.)  
The phone will automatically start charging the battery  
when you attach the charger. To indicate charging:  
the battery meter in the display is continuously  
filled and emptied.  
 Connect the clear plastic plug on the charger  
cable to the charger. It is correctly inserted  
when it snaps into place.  
the indicator on top of the phone shows a steady  
red light (green, if the phone is turned on).  
When the battery is fully charged, the battery meter in  
the display will show full and the indicator on top of the  
phone will show a steady green light.  
Note! It is possible to use the phone while the battery is being  
charged. This will, however, increase the charging  
time.  
To Disconnect the Charger  
l
Twist the plug con-  
nected to the phone  
upwards and pull it  
out.  
Ž Connect the other  
end of the cable to  
the phone according  
to the picture. The  
flash symbol on the  
plug must face up-  
wards. Note that you  
may have to press  
hard.  
When to Charge the Battery  
The nickel metal hydride battery that comes with your  
phone can be charged whenever you wish without  
losing performance. This is not the case with the  
cheaper nickel cadmium type batteries, often sold as  
accessories from other suppliers. For optimal talk and  
standby time in the long run, we recommend that you  
only use Ericsson original batteries with your I 888  
WORLD.  
To remind you that the battery will soon need to be  
charged or replaced with a charged one:  
Press  
to enter the menu system. See inside the cover.  
5
an alarm signal (a long beep) sounds and the mes-  
sage ‘Battery low’ appears for ten seconds in the  
display.  
the indicator light on top of the phone starts blink-  
ing red.  
Note! If the phone is left turned on, the low battery alarm will  
be repeated several times and, finally, the phone will  
turn itself off when the battery is no longer able to  
power it satisfactorily. It might be possible to turn the  
phone on again, but you will not be able to make or re-  
ceive any calls. You should charge the battery or re-  
place it with a charged one.  
6
Press  
to enter the menu system. See inside the cover.  
Turning On the Phone  
To turn on the phone:  
If the message ‘No network’ is displayed, there is no  
network within range or the received signal is too  
weak. You have to move to obtain a sufficiently strong  
signal.  
Œ Press and hold down the NO (ON/OFF) key until  
you hear a click. The display prompts you to  
enter your PIN.  
 Enter your PIN. The digits appear as stars in the  
display. If you make a mistake while entering  
your PIN, erase the wrong digit by pressing the  
CLR key.  
To Turn Off the Phone  
l
In standby mode, press and hold the NO  
(ON/OFF) key until the display is turned off.  
Ž Press YES.  
If you enter your PIN correctly, ‘ERICSSON’ will appear in  
the display. The phone will then search for a network.  
Initial Settings  
Note! If your PIN is entered incorrectly three times in a row,  
the SIM card will be blocked and you will have to un-  
block it using your PUK code. See chapter ‘Security’.  
The first time you turn on your I 888 WORLD, you may  
want to change the default language and ring level  
settings, and set the clock.  
When a network is found, the phone beeps three times.  
The indicator light on top of the phone flashes green  
once every second and your network operator’s name  
(in most cases abbreviated) is shown in the display. If  
you have the charger connected, the indicator will  
show a steady green light instead of a flashing one.  
Display Language  
Most modern SIM cards automatically set the display  
language to the language of the country where you  
bought your SIM card. If this is not the case, the default  
language is English.  
You can now make and receive calls. This is called  
standby mode.

are within range of a network but you are not allowed  
to use it. However, in an emergency, you can call the  
international emergency number 112 (or 911). See  
chapter ‘Making and Receiving Calls’.  
 Press YES to enter the ‘Language’ menu.  
 Press the navigation key until you find the  
desired language.

language you do not understand, you can return to Eng-  
lish by pressing LEFT 0000 RIGHT at any time.  
Tip! Use the volume keys on the side of the phone to change  
the ring level silently.  
Note! If you have your I 888 WORLD connected to external  
equipment (for example handsfree equipment or a vi-  
brating call alert device), the ring signal level will be set  
for this situation separately. See ‘Personalizing Your  
Phone’ for more information.  
Setting the Time

The Phone Book  
The Phone Book in your I 888 WORLD lets you store and  
the phone memory.  
recall phone numbers. This means that the phone can  
store all your important numbers. You do not have to  
remember them or carry your address book around.  
Storing your numbers in the card memory allows you to  
use the numbers stored on the SIM card even when you  
change phones, i.e. when you insert your SIM card into  
another phone.  
The Phone Book also keeps track of your last dialled  
numbers and, if you subscribe to the Calling Line Identi-  
fication service, the last answered numbers. Con-  
venient if you have to call someone back.  
On the other hand, by storing your numbers in the  
phone memory, they are always available to you on  
your phone, even if you change SIM cards.  
When you receive a call and the caller’s number is in the  
Phone Book, you will see the name in the display.  
The memory positions in the card memory are  
numbered from  
1
onwards. The actual number of  
memory positions available depends on your SIM card.  
Tip! Your I 888 WORLD comes with the Ericsson Mobile Of-  
fice Suite software. When installed on your computer,  
the Mobile Office Suite lets you manage your Phone  
Book from your computer in a simple way.  
The phone memory can hold up to 99 phone numbers.  
The memory positions are labelled ¤1 – ¤ 99.  
Note! In the ‘Phone book’ menu, press # to enter the ¤ charac-  
ter. Outside the ‘Phone book’ menu, you must press  
and hold down # to enter the ¤ character.  
You can find more information about the Mobile Office  
Suite in the chapter ‘The Mobile Office Suite’.  
International Numbers  
Before You Start  
If you intend to use your phone both at home and  
abroad, you should store all phone numbers as interna-  
tional phone numbers, that is with the ‘+’ sign – which  
automatically will be replaced by the international dial-  
ling prefix for the country you are calling from – fol-  
lowed by the country code, then the area code and the  
phone number.  
Before you start creating your personal Phone Book,  
there are a few things you need to know. In this section,  
you will learn about the two different memories and  
how to store the numbers with the international prefix.  
We also recommend that you at this stage read the  
section about entering characters, even though you  
might need to go back to this when you follow the in-  
structions later on.  
To enter the (+) sign, press and hold 0.  
Omit any leading zero in the area code.

Sending and Receiving Text Messages  
A very convenient feature of your Ericsson I 888 WORLD  
is the Short Message Service (SMS). This allows you to  
send and receive text messages consisting of up to 160  
characters.  
Two Memories  
The Messages Memory  
If you do not want to read an incoming message at  
once, it is automatically stored in the Messages  
memory in the phone. This allows you to read it later  
on.  
Using the Short Message Service, you do not have to  
worry about whether the people you want to reach  
check their answering machines or not. As soon as they  
turn on their phone, the message will be waiting for  
them.  
If there are any unread incoming messages in the  
messages memory, a letter icon ( ) will appear to the  
left at the bottom of the display.  
Text messages can be received when the phone is in  
standby mode, during a call or when incoming calls are  
diverted to another phone number. If the recipient’s  
phone is turned off when a message is sent, a notifying  
message will be displayed soon after the phone is  
turned on.  
The Messages memory can hold up to 10 messages.  
When all memory positions are full, the oldest read  
message will be overwritten when a new message is re-  
ceived.  
If the Messages memory becomes full with unread  
messages, new messages will automatically be stored  
in the SIM card memory. If the SIM card memory  
becomes full, the letter icon ( ) starts blinking.  
Apart from sending standard messages to phones, your  
Ericsson I 888 WORLD is also prepared for sending fax  
messages (group 3 and 4), X400 messages, e-mails and  
telexes, via the Short Message Service. Check with your  
network operator which message types you can use  
and how.  
Messages remain in the Messages memory until you  
erase them (see ‘Erasing a Message,), until you insert a  
different SIM card, or until the telephone needs the  
memory space to store new messages  
Tip! Your I 888 WORLD comes with the Mobile Office Suite  
software. The Mobile Office Suite makes it possible for  
you to write and read SMS messages on your computer.  
For more information on how this is done, please see  
the chapter ‘The Mobile Office Suite’.  
The SIM Card Memory  
If you receive an important message and want to make  
sure it is not erased from the messages memory, you  
can store it in a memory on your SIM card. This means  
that you can retrieve the message regardless of which  
phone you use. Messages that are saved in the SIM card  
memory remain there until you erase them.  
Note! The Short Message Service may not be available in all  
networks.  
If the SIM card memory becomes full, the letter icon  
(
) starts blinking.

Communicating via the Modem  
A very convenient feature of the I 888 WORLD is the  
in-built modem (which equals a PC Card modem). With  
this, you can connect a computer to your phone in or-  
der to send and receive fax and e-mail messages,  
browse the Internet and much, much more.  
Secondly, you need to install the Microsoft IrDA  
driver and the Ericsson I 888 WORLD modem script  
on your computer. These are found on the CD  
and/or the diskettes that came with your phone.  
Detailed instructions are found in the section ‘I-  
nstalling the Infrared Modem’ below.  
With the I 888 WORLD you can choose if you want to  
connect to your computer via infrared link (IR) or via ca-  
ble.  
For you to be able to use the above mentioned  
services most phone network operators require  
that you have separate fax and data subscriptions.  
This way you never need to worry about whether  
an incoming call is a fax, data or normal speech  
call. If you do not already have separate fax and  
data subscriptions, please contact your operator.  
Note that to be able to use various communication  
services you also need appropriate software, for  
example a fax application, an e-mail application or an  
Internet browser.  
Your I 888 WORLD comes with a CD and a set of disk-  
ettes, both containing a modem script and the Ericsson  
Mobile Office Suite software, among other things. Note  
that the CD contains additional items.  
Note! Do not expose your in-built modem to electrostatic dis-  
charge (ESD). The communication link may be lost and  
could lead to unintentional loss of data. Should you  
lose connection, you may need to restart your  
computer and/or your mobile phone.  
The Mobile Office Suite is a phone book manager and a  
message manager. See the chapter ‘The Mobile Office  
Suite’ for more information.  
The Data Menus  
You will also find the Microsoft IrDA driver, the Micro-  
soft Windows CE driver and modem script.  
Some of the communication features described in this  
chapter require that you have the ‘Data menus’ in your  
phone turned on. To turn them on:  
Before you Start  
Œ In the ‘Settings’ menu, scroll to ‘Data menus’.  
The current status (on or off) is now shown on  
the bottom row of the display.  
Before you can start using communication applications  
there are a few things that need to be taken care of:  
 Press YES to change the status if needed (that is  
from off to on or vice versa). Then press YES  
again to confirm the setting.  
Firstly, you need to make sure your computer is  
configured for infrared communication. Most com-  
puters are already configured, but if this is not the  
case, please see your computer’s user manual for  
more detailed information.

The Phone Lock  
Call Barring/Restrict Calls  
The phone lock protects the phone against un-  
authorized use in the event of theft. It is not activated  
when you buy the phone. You should, however, acti-  
vate it as soon as possible. You should also change the  
default security code 0000 to any three- to eight-digit  
personalized code.  
The ‘Call Barring’ service of the cellular network allows  
you to bar different types of outgoing and incoming  
calls. This means you can restrict the use of your  
phone.  
Note! This service may not be available on all networks or  
may require a separate subscription.  
There are two levels of locking the phone:  
Full Lock  
Autolock  
The following calls can be barred:  
all outgoing calls,  
all outgoing international calls,  
If the ‘Full Lock’ is activated, you see the message  
‘Phone locked’ briefly, each time you turn on the phone.  
The message is followed by the prompt ‘Enter lock  
code’. You then have to enter a security code and press  
YES to be able to use the phone.

locked’ and the prompt ‘Enter lock code’ will not appear  
until a different SIM card is inserted in the phone. After  
the security code has been entered correctly, the phone  
can be used with a new SIM card. You are not asked to  
enter the security code until the original SIM card or a  
different SIM card is inserted.

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use  
General  
Efficient Phone Operation  
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver.  
When the phone is turned on, it receives and transmits  
radio frequency (RF) energy. Depending on the type of  
mobile phone you have bought, it operates in different  
frequency ranges and employs commonly used modu-  
lation techniques. The system that handles your call  
when you are using your phone, controls the power  
level at which your phone transmits.  
How to use your phone for optimum performance with  
minimum power consumption:  
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone.  
While speaking directly into the mouthpiece, angle  
the antenna in a direction up and over your shoul-  
der. If the antenna is extendable/retractable, it  
should be extended during a call.  
Do not hold the antenna when the phone is in  
use. Holding the antenna affects call quality, may  
cause the phone to operate at a higher power level  
than needed and shorten talk and standby times.  
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy  
The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radia-  
tion Protection (ICNIRP), sponsored by the World Health  
Organization (WHO), published a statement in 1996  
which sets limits for exposure to RF fields from hand-  
held mobile phones. According to this statement,  
which is based on the available body of research, there  
is no evidence that mobile terminals meeting the rec-  
ommended limits can cause any adverse health effects.  
All Ericsson telephones conform to the ICNIRP recom-  
mendations and international exposure standards,  
such as:  
Antenna Care and Replacement  
Do not bend the antenna since it is sensitive and  
this will reduce its performance.  
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna.  
Take your phone to a qualified service centre for  
repair. Use only the designated Ericsson antenna.  
Do not use an antenna designed for any other  
type of telephone than the one you have bought.  
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attach-  
ments could damage the phone and may violate  
the appropriate regulations.  
CENELEC European Pre-standard ENV50166-2  
ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 (USA, Asia-Pacific)  
If you want to limit RF exposure even further, you may  
choose to control the duration of your calls and operate  
your phone in the most power efficient manner.  
Driving  
Check the laws and regulations on the use of tele-  
phones in the areas where you drive.  
58  
Press  
to enter the menu system. See inside the cover.  
If you are going to use your mobile phone while driv-  
ing:  
Aircraft  
Give full attention to driving.  
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft.  
Use hands-free operation, if available.  
Do not use it on the ground without crew permis-  
Pull off the road and park before making or an-  
swering a call if driving conditions so require.  
sion.  
To prevent interference with communication systems,  
you must not use your phone while the plane is in the  
air.  
RF energy may affect some electronic systems in motor  
vehicles. In addition, some vehicle manufacturers for-  
bid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles. Check  
with your vehicle manufacturer's representative to be  
sure your phone will not affect the electronic systems  
of your vehicle.  
Power Supply  
Connect AC (Power supply) only to designated  
power sources as marked on the product.  
Electronic Devices  
To reduce risk of damage to the electric cord, re-  
move it from the outlet by holding onto the AC  
adapter rather than the cord.  
Most modern electronic equipment, for example equip-  
ment in hospitals and cars, is shielded from RF energy.  
However, RF energy from telephones may affect some  
electronic equipment.  
Make sure the cord is located so that it will not be  
stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to  
damage or stress.  
Turn off your phone in health care facilities when  
regulations posted in the areas instruct you to do so.  
To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the unit  
from any power source before attempting any  
cleaning, then use a soft, damp cloth.  
Do not use your mobile phone near medical equipment  
without requesting permission.  
Mobile telephones may affect the operation of some im-  
planted cardiac pacemakers, equipment for people  
with hearing impairments and other medically im-  
planted equipment. Pacemaker patients should be  
aware that the use of a mobile phone very close to a  
pacemaker may cause the device to malfunction. Avoid  
placing the phone over the pacemaker, i.e. in your  
breast pocket. When using the phone, place it at your  
ear opposite the pacemaker. If a minimum distance of  
15 cm is kept between the phone and the pacemaker,  
the risk of interference is limited. Contact your cardi-  
ologist for more information.  
Children  
Do not allow children to play with your phone since  
they could hurt themselves or others or accidentally  
damage the phone.  
Blasting Areas  
Turn off your mobile phone when in a blasting area or  
in areas posted ‘turn off two-way radio’ to avoid inter-  
fering with blasting operations. Construction crews of-  
ten use remote control RF devices to set off explosives.  
Press  
to enter the menu system. See inside the cover.  
59  
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres  
Turn off your phone when in any area with a poten-  
tially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your phone  
or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks in such  
areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bod-  
ily injury or even death.  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are of-  
ten, but not always, clearly marked. They include fuel-  
ling areas, such as petrol stations, below deck on boats,  
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas  
where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as  
grain, dust, or metal powders.  
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or ex-  
plosives in the compartment of your vehicle which con-  
tains your phone and accessories.  
Product Care  
Do not expose your mobile phone to moisture or  
extreme temperatures.  
Do not use any other accessories than Ericsson  
originals. Failure to do so may result in loss of per-  
formance, fire, electric shock or injury, and will  
void the warranty.  
Do not attempt to disassemble the product. Doing  
so will void warranty. This product does not con-  
tain consumer serviceable components. Service  
should only be performed by Authorized Service  
Centres.
