1. Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing the Nokia 9000i
Communicator, the versatile communications
tool you need to stay connected to the office
when you are out. The Nokia 9000i Communica-
tor, with a mobile phone, messaging device, In-
ternet access terminal and palmtop organizer all
in one compact unit, is more than just the sum
of its components. The communicator applica-
tions are designed to work together to provide
you with the information you need when you
need it, where you need it.
Chapter 2 ”Getting started” on page 2-1 helps
you to begin using the Nokia 9000i Communica-
tor by explaining the “start up procedure” as well
as outlining the special features. A list of com-
monly used functions and their corresponding
pathways is found at the end of Chapter 2.
The rest of this manual deals with the communi-
cator interface applications and the phone inter-
face functions.
If you are an experienced mobile phone and mo-
bile office user, read at least this introductory
chapter and the "Getting started" chapter. Basic
information about the communicator applica-
tions is always available in the context sensitive
help, which can be activated by pressing the Help
button on the communicator interface keyboard.
This introduction helps you understand how the
Nokia 9000i Communicator operates.
The phone and communicator interfaces
The Nokia 9000i Communicator has two inter-
faces. The phone interface (Figure 1-1) is on the
Figure 1-1: Phone interface
Figure 1-2: Communicator interface
1-2
Things to remember
device cover, and the communicator interface
(Figure 1-2) is under the cover.
The communicator interface has many organizer
and communications applications. The QWERTY
keyboard, command buttons and large display
make using the applications easy. The communi-
cator interface has no power on/off button; it
self-activates when you open the cover and de-
activates when you close the cover.
The word “interface” emphasizes the fact that
both of these two aspects of the Nokia 9000i
Communicator use the same resources and work
closely together — they are not separate devices.
For example, when placing a call from the phone
interface, although you may be scrolling the keys
on the keypad or performing a search with the
communicator cover closed, the search engine
will be searching the information within the
communicator interface.
FCC/Industry Canada Notice
Your communicator may cause TV or radio inter-
ference (e.g., when using the phone in close
proximity of receiving equipment). The FCC/In-
dustry Canada can require you to stop using your
communicator if such interference cannot be
eliminated. If you need assistance, contact your
home network operator.
IMPORTANT! Do not switch on the phone
interface when mobile phone use is prohib-
ited or when it may cause interference or
danger (see Chapter 16 ”Important safety
information” on page 16-1.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC
rules. Operation is subject to the condition
that this device does not cause harmful
interference.
The phone interface is designed for quickly mak-
ing and receiving calls. It looks and operates like
other Nokia mobile phones (except that the ear-
piece and microphone are on the backside of the
device). The phone interface is switched on and
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly
approved by Nokia could void the user’s authority
to operate the equipment.
off by pressing the
button on the cover.
Things to remember
•
Internet access also requires that data service
is supported by the network you are using and
activated for your SIM card. In addition, to
access the Internet, you must have obtained
an Internet Access Point from an Internet
service provider (contact your retailer for
details).
Services
In order to utilize the communication capabilities
of the Nokia 9000i Communicator, you may have
to subscribe to certain services, such as fax, SMS
or data services, separately. If the service requires
a separate phone number or specific settings for
any of these services, they must be stored in the
communicator’s settings. For example,
Access codes
•
To send and receive faxes, your network must
support fax service and your SIM card must
be activated for fax service.
The communicator uses several access codes to
protect against unauthorized use of your commu-
nicator and the SIM card. You can make changes
to the lock code, PIN and PUK codes from the
communicator interface in the Security applica-
tion by pressing Settings. The PIN and PUK codes
can also be changed via the phone interface using
Menu 5.
•
To use the communicator as a fax modem,
your network must support data service and
your SIM card must be activated for data
service.

(Notes, Fax, SMS, E-mail, Calendar). The editor,
however, works in each application in a way that
corresponds to the sending format of that appli-
cation. For example, because short messages
cannot contain text formatting, the SMS editor
removes text formatting before opening any doc-
ument. For this reason, the text editor is called
Note editor in the Notes application, E-mail editor
in the E-mail application, and so on.
The Internet applications use passwords and user
names to protect from unauthorized use of your
Internet services. To change the password for an
Internet access point, go to the Internet main
screen, press Settings, scroll to Internet access
and press Change, then press Edit and scroll to
Password. To change an e-mail password, go to
the E-mail main screen, press Settings, scroll to
Remote mailbox settings, then scroll to Remote
mailbox password.
Document outbox
The access codes you need most often are the
lock code (provided in the sales package) and the
Personal Identity Number (PIN) code (provided
with the SIM card). The access codes are de-
scribed in more detail in Chapter 10 "System:
Security" on page 10-2. See also Chapter 13
"Phone interface: Detailed menus list - Security
options (Menu 5)" on page 13-11.
To help with wireless data transmission, the
communicator has an outgoing communications
manager called the Document outbox. When you
send faxes, short messages and e-mail, they al-
ways go first to the Document outbox. The Out-
box prepares your fax, short message or e-mail
and then sends it through the phone interface. If
the phone interface is off or the network signal
strength is inadequate, the document will not be
sent until the phone interface is switched on and
the signal strength is sufficient. You do not have
to worry about whether the phone or fax called
might be off or busy: after the first attempt, the
Document outbox tries to send the document
nine more times. A document will remain in the
Document outbox until it is successfully sent or
you cancel the send.
Contact information
All the contact information (names, addresses,
phone numbers, e-mail addresses, etc.) you store
goes into the Contacts directory. Each applica-
tion and interface has its own view of the Con-
tacts directory. The information shown depends
on the information the selected application can
use. For example, when you are making a call via
the phone interface, you can view the name and
the phone number(s) of the contact – possible
fax numbers, e-mail addresses, job titles, etc.,
are not shown.
The Document outbox can be accessed in the Fax,
SMS, E-mail and Notes applications’ main views,
where it is shown at the bottom of the folders list.
The Document outbox is discussed in more detail
in Chapter 12 "Document outbox" on page 12-1.
You can customize your contact information
according to your preferences, see Chapter 3
"Contacts: Contact cards - Customizing contact
cards" on page 3-3. Customizing only affects
new contact information; existing contacts will
not be affected. If you customize your contact
card template in an early phase, you will not
have to edit your contact cards manually.
There is no Document inbox. When you receive
faxes, short messages or download e-mail, they
go directly in their own received document fold-
ers. Each application shows a received document
folder containing documents that can be viewed
within that application. For example, the Fax ap-
plication shows a Received faxes folder; the
Texts
E-mail application shows a Received e-mail folder.
With the communicator interface’s text editor,
you can create new texts in many applications

interface. In most locations, this will configure
the settings for your voice mail and the SMSC.
Note that whenever you open the communicator
cover after having removed and replaced the
battery, you will see a welcome screen while the
device performs a self-test. The following steps,
however, occur only the first time the communi-
cator is activated, or after it has been reformatted.
SIM card installation is described in "SIM card: In-
stalling the SIM card" on page 2-3. If you do not
have a SIM card yet, ignore this step. Although

SIM card
A SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card is a
“smart chip” that is used with all handsets oper-
ating on GSM networks. The SIM contains all the
information the GSM1900 network needs to
identify the network user and also performs spe-
cific functions required by the network. Among
other things, the SIM card contains subscriber
and billing information, makes periodic location
updates with the network, and provides en-

A valid SIM card (supplied by your network op-
erator) is required for making and receiving calls.
The network operator may prevent the use of the
communicator with any other but the operator’s
own SIM cards. If an unacceptable SIM card is
inserted, the message INVALID SIM CARD will be
displayed. Should this happen, contact your re-
tailer or network operator.
The SIM card can also store contact information.
The number of contacts that can be stored on a
SIM will vary from manufacturer to manufactur-
er. The SIM memory is referred to as Memory A,

Battery
Your Nokia 9000i Communicator is powered by a
rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery. The Extended
Li-Ion Battery provides up to three hours of talk/
fax/terminal time or up to 30 hours of standby
time. Use only batteries approved by the com-
municator manufacturer.
Charging the battery
Use only those chargers approved by the commu-
nicator manufacturer for charging a Lithium-Ion
battery. The communicator can be used during
charging. To charge a battery with the adapter
and a charger:
Figure 2-8: Charger lead
„ Connect the charger to an 120 V AC wall out-
let. If the phone interface is switched on, the
CHARGING message appears on the display
and segments of the battery indicator bar on
the right-hand side of the phone interface dis-
play will start scrolling. (Charging information
is also shown on the communicator interface
display, see ”Indicators” on page 2-10.)
… When the battery is fully charged, the battery
indicator bar will stop scrolling and display
five solid bars. You may remove the adapter
from the communicator:
• Insert the battery.
‚ Attach the adapter to the bottom of the com-
municator as shown in Figure 2-7. Insert the
curved pin into the right-hand side aperture
at the end of the communicator. Push the left
side of the adapter gently towards the com-
municator until the left locking pin engages.
(If you try to force the adapter into place up-
side down, you may accidentally break off the
curved guiding pin.)
† Hold down the release button on the left side
of the adapter (Figure 2-7), and turn the
adapter away from the communicator.
When the charge is low and only a few minutes
of operation time remain, a warning tone will be
heard, and the message BATTERY LOW will be re-
peated at regular intervals on the display. When
the charge level becomes too low for operation,
the RECHARGE BATTERY message will be dis-
played, accompanied by a warning tone. If you
do not connect the communicator to a charger,
the communicator automatically switches itself
off. If the tones have been switched off, only the
display messages will appear (see Chapter 13
"Phone interface: Detailed menus list - All
sounds (Menu 10)" on page 13-15).

ƒ Connect the charger lead to the adapter, as
shown in Figure 2-8.

Battery
Note: No information or user data will be lost if
the battery is removed or completely
discharged. User data is automatically
retained by the flash memory and is
Always keep a charged battery in the communica-
tor. Keeping the battery charged maximizes the
lifetime of the backup battery supplying power to
the communicator’s real-time clock. In the un-
likely event that the backup battery is drained, it
may be replaced by qualified personnel.
unaffected by the status of the battery.
Always close the device cover before removing
the battery. Closing the cover automatically
saves all data.
Using the battery
Use only batteries approved by the communicator
manufacturer. With approved chargers and acces-
sories, the battery can be charged continuously.
Note:
•
•
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery which is
damaged or worn out.
The battery need not be fully discharged before
recharging. When a charger is not in use, discon-
nect it from the power source.
•
Do not short circuit the battery. Accidental
short circuiting can occur when contact with
a metal object (coin, paperclip or pen) causes
direct connection of the + and - terminals of
the battery. This could occur when you carry
a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short
circuiting the terminals may damage the
battery or the connecting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such
as in a closed car in summer or winter condi-
tions, will reduce the capacity and battery
lifetime. Try to keep the battery between
+59°F (+15°C) and +77°F (+25°C). A hot or
cold battery may temporarily not work, even
when the battery is fully charged. Li-Ion
batteries’ performance is particularly limited
in temperatures below +32°F (0°C).
The battery can be charged and discharged hun-
dreds of times, but it will eventually wear out.
When the operation time (talk-time and stand-by
time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time
to buy a new battery.
Temperature extremes will affect the ability of
your battery to charge: it may require cooling or
warming first.
•
Factors affecting battery operation time:
•
•
•
•
Whether both interfaces are in use.
Radio signal strength.
Various phone settings.
Length of the communicator interface’s
screen power-down period (set in System
application’s settings, see Chapter 10
"System: System settings" on page 10-1).
•
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with
local regulations. Recycle! Do not dispose of
batteries in a fire!

If the number you have copied is a GSM number,
be aware that you will need to edit the field label
in the Contacts application from the communi-
cator interface in order to send SMS messages to
this contact. The SMS directory offers only those
contacts with Tel(GSM) numbers as possible
recipients to your SMS, and dims all other
contacts.
When you store or copy phone numbers via the
phone interface, the phone number will appear in
the Contacts directory’s Tel field (not the
Tel(GSM) field). In order to send SMS messages,
the recipient’s GSM phone number must be stored
in the Tel(GSM) field. You will need to edit this in-

Internet glossary
Cookies
Internet Protocol (IP) address
Cookies are little nuggets of information, given
by the server to the user, to store session infor-
mation between the times the user visits the
same web site. When a user accepts cookies,
the server is able to store and use information
about the user’s actions on the visited web site.
Although the cookies are used by the server,
they are stored in the communicator.
All computers and other devices connected to
Internet using the Internet Protocol have
their own individual addresses. The address
consists of four groups of numbers separated
by periods: for example, “131.227.21.167.”
Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions
(MIME)
A standard Internet format which permits in-
cluding multiple mail objects in a single mes-
sage. The mail objects can be, for example,
formatted multifont text messages and non-
textual elements, such as images and audio
fragments.
Domain name and Host name
The terms “domain name” and “host name”
are sometimes, slightly inaccurately, used
synonymously. In a fully qualified domain
name (e.g., www.forum.nokia.com), the first
part of the name is the name of the host and
the following parts are names of domains the
host belongs to. Each host name corresponds
to a certain IP address (see below). Host
names are used because they are easier to re-
member than IP addresses.
Plug-in
An application that can be downloaded from
the WWW, used to display a document that
the WWW application itself cannot show.
Point to Point Protocol (PPP)
A common networking software protocol
making it possible for any computer with a
modem and a phone line to connect directly
to the Internet.
Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)
A language used to define WWW documents’
appearance and content.
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
Post Office Protocol, version 3 (POP3)
A document transfer protocol used in the
WWW system.
Another common mail protocol that can be
used for accessing a remote mailbox.
Images (Inline, External)
Protocol
An inline image lies within a retrieved web
page; external images, which are often much
larger, must be viewed separately.
A formal set of rules that govern how data is
transferred between two devices.
Proxy
Internet Access Point (IAP)
In some networks, the connection between
the WWW application and the resource you
want to connect to is blocked by a firewall.
The firewall protects the internal network
from unauthorized external access. A proxy is
an intermediary program which enables ac-
cess through the firewall. A proxy can also
serve as a network “cache,” which speeds up
the downloading process.
Where your communicator connects to Inter-
net by way of a data call. An Internet service
provider can be, for example, a commercial In-
ternet service provider or your own company.
Internet Mail Access Protocol, version 4
(IMAP4)
A protocol used for accessing the remote
mailbox.

cation in the Internet and in the TCP/IP
networks.
Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP)
An Internet protocol governing the transfer
of electronic mail.
TCP Port
Identifies the data port of the destination
computer.
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer)
A security protocol that prevents eavesdrop-
ping, tampering, or message forgery over the
Internet.
SSL support is available as add-on software.
Check the material delivered in the sales pack-
age, or contact the Nokia HelpLine or http://
www.forum.nokia.com for further information
about latest SSL support.
Uniform Resource Locator (URL)
Link information required by the WWW service
to connect to a given WWW host computer.
The URL usually starts with http:// followed by
www. For example, the Forum.Nokia home
page can be found at: http://www.fo-
rum.nokia.com. URLs are often referred to with
phrases like “Home page location,” “Site loca-
tion,” “can be found at... .”

Connecting to WWW
¿ Select a WWW page from the Hotlist or enter
a URL address in the URL entry field (see
"Connecting to WWW: Navigating in WWW"
on page 7-14).
After the WWW page has been downloaded, the
following commands are available (Figure 7-6):
Go activates the WWW navigation commands
(see "Connecting to WWW: Navigating in
WWW" on page 7-14).
¡
Press Retrieve.
Save activates a new set of commands:
If the WWW page has been downloaded and re-
mains in the communicator’s temporary working
memory (or “cache”), the page is retrieved from
there. If not, the page is downloaded from the
Internet by making a data call to the selected
Internet access point.
Copy text/Copy image copies the text (or
image) on the opened page into the Down-
loaded files folder. Possible text formatting is
retained in the copy.
Add to hotlist adds on the Hotlist a link
pointing to this WWW page.
You can retrieve WWW pages stored on the
communicator by using the prefix “file:///”.
Copy HTML saves the HTML code of the cur-
rently opened WWW page or inline image
into the Downloaded files folder and adds to
the hotlist a link pointing to this WWW page
(see "Connecting to WWW: Locally stored
WWW pages" on page 7-14).
Some servers have access restrictions which re-
quire a valid user name and password before a
document can be downloaded. The communica-
tor will store the passwords and user names that
you enter to gain access to those domains, and
submit them automatically the next time you
connect to the same domain. If the automated
login does not succeed, you will be asked to en-
ter the information manually.
Back returns the previous set of commands.
Off line ends the data call and disconnects from
the Internet. Once you are off line, this com-
mand changes to On line.
Note: Stored passwords to individual web sites
are removed when the communicator is
rebooted (i.e., when the battery is re-
moved and replaced).
You may choose to use the Off line function, for
example, to read copied text off line. The copied
text can be read or edited (see Chapter 8 "Notes:
Notes settings - Editing" on page 8-2).
The downloaded WWW page is loaded in the
WWW browser. The status line on top of the dis-
play shows the status of the connection, the title
of the document and how many bytes of the
document file have been received.
To reconnect to the Internet, press On line.
While you are off line, commands Retrieve, Re-
trieve image or Previous, or other applications
may also return you to on line.
To reload a web page, press Ctrl+R.
Close returns you to the Hotlist.

vious page.
¬ Open the document to view the code.
If you want to view the document as it would
appear in the World Wide Web, open the docu-
ment in the WWW application. A locally stored
WWW page is opened in the WWW browser by
using the prefix “file:///” (note: three slashes)
instead of “http://” (two slashes).
Index — Activates the Navigation index view.
You may select a previously downloaded WWW
page from the Navigation index list and press
Retrieve. The index contains the most recently
retrieved documents (and their URLs – shown in
the URL entry box). After the maximum list
length is reached, older pages are deleted one by
one as new ones are stored

Printing documents
Printing documents
Printing is possible only from the Notes applica-
tion, using an IrDA compatible infrared port.
After the communicator has checked that you do
not already have an active PC connection, it
starts to scan for a printer. Because you can only
have one active connection, you cannot print
while you are transferring files from the commu-
nicator to a PC. If the printer cannot be found, a
failure note is shown and the editor view re-
turns. If the correct printer is found, the printer
driver is selected automatically and the printing
view shows the name of the document and the
selected printer.
The communicator supports direct printing to
the HP LaserJet 5P, a PCL printer, and the HP La-
serJet 5MP, a Postscript printer. Other printers
may be used if the proper printer drivers are first
downloaded onto the communicator. These
printer drivers may be installed with the Install/
Remove software function found in the System
application.
For more information on the printers supported,
read the readme.txt file on the diskette supplied
in the communicator sales package, or see the
Club.Nokia home page at www.club.nokia.com.
„ Press Start to start printing.
Printing problems
For specific information on the printer you are
using, please refer to the manufacturer’s User’s
Guide.
Though the communicator may detect a con-
nected printer, certain complications might still
occur.
To establish an infrared connection:
If the printer found is not recognized:
• Make sure that the communicator’s infrared
port faces the infrared port of the printer.
‚ Keep the infrared connection clear. In the
event the infrared connection is obstructed for
too long (for example, something is moved be-
tween the infrared sensors or the communica-
tor is moved), printing is interrupted.
Select the correct printer driver manually.
You can choose another printer after pressing
Printers.
If the printer found is not recognized, and the
communicator does not have the correct driver
for the printer, you can try to print the document
using one of the available printer drivers.
ƒ To print a document, open the document,
press Print/Send and select Print.

This service is activated for your SIM card.
You have the proper fax driver software (for
either cable or infrared connection) installed
on your PC.
Operations of a modem can be controlled by AT
commands and S-registers. These commands
give the advanced user an opportunity to control
all the features of the modem. However, it is not
always necessary to enter the AT commands
manually. Most PC communications applications
have a user-friendly interface that hides the AT
commands from the user. Should you need to
enter the commands manually, consult the doc-
umentation of the PC application that you are
using.
The fax driver software can be found on the
Nokia Communications Server diskette that
comes with the sales package. For more in-
formation, see the readme.txt file included
on the diskette, or consult the user's guide of
your computer on how to install new mo-
dems. If you want to receive data calls, your
SIM card also needs a data number. Contact
your network operator for details.
A list of the common AT commands (based on
the ETSI 07.07 standard) supported by the Nokia
9000i Communicator are available as an ASCII
text file on the diskette that came with the sales
package of your communicator.
To use the communicator as a fax modem via in-
frared:
• Make sure you have loaded the Microsoft in-
frared drivers onto your PC, and that the soft-
ware is runnning.
‚ Make sure you have downloaded the fax mo-
dem software for infrared from the Nserver

When the communicator is used as a fax modem,
its normal communication features are disabled
(otherwise, the applications remain functional).
If an active PC connection is idle for longer than

Backup/Restore
The Backup/Restore application enables you to
make backups of various data on your communi-
cator, as well as restore to the communicator data
you have saved. Data is backed up in sets which
are stored in separate directories on the PC.
Documents — Document backup covers all
documents in the application folders that can
be opened for viewing (except contact cards
and Call records).
Contacts — The contact directory backup file
cannot be edited. If you want to edit the Con-
tacts database contents, use the Import/Export
contacts application (see the next section).
When data is backed up, the previous contents of
the backup directories will be deleted. If you want
to keep the previous backup set, you should copy
the files to another directory on the PC, or change
the backup directory in the Backup/Restore set-
tings before making a new backup.
Calendar — The data in your calendar can be
backed up and restored.
Before using this application, make sure that the
connectivity software has been installed on your
PC and is running (see ”Connecting to a PC” on
page 10-6).
When data is restored, only files with similar names
in the destination folder will be overwritten.
Press Settings to change the connection type or
the path to the PC directory.
Press Backup or Restore to start the respective
operations. The backup directory will be created
if necessary.
The sets of data you can back up are:
All data — (default) Backing up all data means
backing up your communicator exactly as it is
at the moment (except for the Call records in
the Contacts application and applications’
settings).
While backup is being made/restored, the com-
municator’s other applications cannot be used.
To interrupt the operation, for example, to make
an emergency call, press Cancel and then con-
firm by pressing Interrupt.
Import/Export contacts
The Import/Export contacts application allows
you to export contact cards to a PC and import
them back to the communicator. The contact in-
formation is exported to the PC as a single ASCII
text file, contacts.txt, which can be edited as any
ASCII file. If you edit the contents of the file, you
should be very careful not to delete accidentally
any record or field definition strings, placed in-
side brackets [ ]. Do not delete any of the brack-
ets, either. It is always a good idea to back up
your data before doing any editing.
Instead of an ASCII file, you can open the ex-
ported contact information in an application or
database compatible with the Nokia 9000i Com-
municator’s contact card format.
The main view shows the connection type used
and the default path in the PC. To change the
connection settings, press Settings.
Before using this application, make sure that the
connectivity software has been installed on your
PC and is running (see ”Connecting to a PC” on

Import/Export calendar data
The Import/Export calendar data application al-
lows you to export calendar data (events, event
details and to-do list) onto a PC and import it
back to the communicator. The calendar data is
exported to the PC as a single ASCII text file, cal-
endar.txt. You can edit the calendar data the
same way as exported contact cards. Note that
memos attached to the events are referenced in
the calendar.txt file, but not exported (to export
memos, use the File Transfer application).
To import calendar data:
Press Import in the Import/Export calendar
data main view. When the data in the defined
PC directory has been copied to the commu-
nicator you will be asked to confirm the con-
version of the imported data as calendar
data.
Note: The imported calendar data will replace
all your current calendar data.
The main view shows the connection type used
and the default path in the PC. To change the
connection settings, press Settings.
To export calendar data:
Press Export in the Import/Export calendar
data main view.
Before using this application, make sure that the
connectivity software has been installed on your
PC and is running (see ”Connecting to a PC” on
page 10-6).
If a file with the default name (calendar.txt)
already exists on the PC, the existing file will
be overwritten.
Data removal
The Data removal application comes in handy if
you want to remove personal information from
the communicator, for example, before lending
it to someone else. This way you do not need to
remove data one by one.
Before any data is removed, you must enter the
lock code (see "Security"). When deleting calen-
dar data, you can choose to delete all calendar
data or only events that occur before a given
date.
The removable data is arranged in four groups:
All data, Calendar data, Documents, Contacts
and speed dials
If you want to restore your communicator in the
same state it was in at the time of purchase, see
Chapter 14 ”Troubleshooting” on page 14-1.
Select the desired data group in the normal way
by moving the selection frame and press Delete.
Note: Even if you choose the All data option,
your Internet settings will not be erased.

will give a ringing tone and the text CALL on the
display will flash. If you have selected SILENT in
Menu 10, only the keypad and display lights will
flash. If you have selected BEEP, only a single beep
will be heard. If the caller can be identified, the
caller’s phone number (or name if stored in mem-
ory) and the text CALLING will be displayed instead.
To answer an incoming voice call, press
any other key except or
or
.
If you do not want to answer the call, simply
press . The caller will hear the alerting tone
change to a busy tone, and the call will be for-
warded to your voice mailbox if Forward when
phone is busy is on and set to To voice mailbox,
see Chapter 4 "Telephone: Telephone settings -
Voice call forward, call restrictions and call
waiting" on page 4-2.
You can answer the call any time, even while
using the memory or menu functions.
Sending DTMF tones
DTMF tones are the touch tones you hear when
you press the keys of the telephone.
• Make a call to the desired phone number.
‚ Key in the digits you want to send as DTMF
tones. The digits are sent one by one to the
network. DTMF tones can be transmitted
even when the keypad tones are turned off.
If you need to send long DTMF strings, it is more
convenient to send them within the communica-
tor interface, see Chapter 4 "Telephone: Confer-
ence call - Sending DTMF tones" on page 4-8.

Using memory
Note: When stored DTMF tones are recalled in
the phone interface, only DTMF strings
which have been stored in a Tel field can
be used.
Automatic sending
In order to send DTMF tones automatically, you
must store them first. Storing DTMF strings is
most conveniently done in the communicator in-
terface, see Chapter 3 "Contacts: Contact cards -
Storing DTMF tones" on page 3-4. If you want to
store DTMF strings in the phone interface, see
"Using memory: Storing information via the
phone interface" on page 13-5.
• Press Memory. Key in the name of the contact
card which contains the DTMF service phone
number and the DTMF digits and press Find.
‚ When the recalled string (containing the
phone number and the DTMF digits) is on the
display, press
.
After the connection has been established, the
DTMF tones will be sent directly. If you include
the p character, the tones will be sent after a
small pause. If you include the w character,
the tones will be sent after you press
second time.
a
For how to recall information, see "Using memory:
Recalling information" on page 13-5.
Using memory
The phone numbers and names you store are
normally located in the standard memory of the
communicator, indicated by the letter “B” on the
phone interface display.
Keying in a name
• Press the Memory selection key to switch to
the alpha mode (the indicator is shown
on the phone interface display).
The “B” memory is the communicator memory,
known as the Contacts directory. When the
communicator is started-up for the first time,
the “B” memory is selected automatically.
‚ Press the key that has the desired character.
If the character that you want is not the first
to be displayed, press the key again within
one second (before the cursor appears) to
display the next character. Keep pressing the
key until the desired character appears.
ƒ If you miss a character, keep pressing the key
until it appears again; or first press and
then start pressing the key again.
The “A” memory is located on the SIM card that
is inserted in the communicator. The SIM card
memory uses numbered memory locations to
store data. When numbers are saved in the SIM
card (“A”) memory, a message will indicate its
location number. The number of standard mem-
ory locations available on SIM cards varies from
one card to another.
To enter a space between characters, press
To correct a mistake, press
.
When the “A” memory is selected, the phone in-
terface stores all contact information on the SIM
card and cannot access the Contacts directory.
Therefore, the use of the communications appli-
cations of the communicator interface will be less
convenient (you will have to enter most contact
information manually). This users’s manual will
assume that you use the standard “B” memory.
.
Once the desired character is on the display and
you want to enter a new character, do either of
the following:
1. If the next required character is located on
some key other than the previously pressed
key, press the new key and the first character
on the key will appear.
or
Chapter 13 - Phone interface

2. If the next required character is located on
the same key as the present one, wait one
second. The vertical cursor will appear to the
right of the character just pressed. Or, press
to move the cursor and select the charac-
ter without waiting for the cursor to appear.
… Press Save. The message SAVED will appear on
the display. The entry will be automatically
saved in the Contacts directory in alphabetical
order (numbers will precede letters).
Note: A quick way to save text or numbers cur-
rently on the display is to press Memory
for three seconds.
Note: When entering names, you may include
numbers or other characters in the text
(e.g. Paul-2nd line). Phone numbers, how-
ever may only contain digits and the spe-
cial characters associated with DTMF
tones.
Recalling information
You may retrieve phone numbers and names
from memory by the name associated with the
phone number or by the speed dial number of
the Contacts directory entry.
Lower case letters
If you want a lower case character, press and
hold a key until the character appears in lower
case. All further letters will appear in lower case
until a key is pressed and held once again.
To recall a phone number by name:
• Press Memory.
‚ Key in the name or its first letter(s).

Communicator activation and system trouble
1. Phone interface or communicator interface
does not start (both displays remain blank)
Remove the battery and replace it again
(reboot).
Make sure the battery is properly installed
and charged.
Try charging the communicator. If you see the
battery charging indicator on the phone inter-
face but the phone does not work, contact
your local Nokia retailer.
Remove the battery and make sure that the
contacts on the battery and the communicator
or the charging stand are clean.
Check the field strength indicator, as you
might be out of the network service area.
Battery charge may be too low for operation.
Check the display and listen for the low bat-
tery warning tones. Charge the battery with
the adapter and charger as described in Chap-
ter 2 "Getting started: Battery" on page 2-5.
Check if there is an error message on the display
after switching on. If so, contact your local
Nokia retailer.
Check that the SIM card is correctly installed,
see Chapter 2 "Getting started: SIM card" on
page 2-2.
If the NOT CHARGING message is displayed, the
charging is suspended. In this case check that
the temperature of the battery is not above
+113°F (+45°C). Wait for a while, disconnect
the charger, connect it again and retry. If charg-
ing still fails, contact your local Nokia retailer.
3. Communicator does not activate or appli-
cations stop responding
Close the cover and open it again. If this does
not help, close the cover and remove the bat-
tery. Replace the battery and open the cover
again. Wait while the communicator performs
a self-test and starts. See also problem 4.
2. Power comes on, but the phone interface
does not work
14-2
Establishing communication
1) Check the file system
4. Resetting the communicator
Key combination: Shift-ESC-(left arrow)
Symptoms: The Memory application (in the
System main view) shows too much (over 2
megabytes) or too little memory (even if
you have just deleted some documents), or
the communicator interface applications
crash when opening a document.
Caution: If there are problems in the file
system, the corrupted files will be removed.
If there are no problems, this operation
does not affect any documents or settings.
Removing the battery in mid-transmission
may cause errors in the communicator’s file
system. If you receive internal memory or sys-
tem error messages and/or reboot prompts, or
the device does not respond to commands
normally, the reset operations will help you to
recover from most of these problems. Try the
reset operations in the order they are listed: if
checking the file system does not help, try de-
leting temporary files, and so on.
To reset the communicator, follow these steps:
• Close the cover.
‚ Remove the battery.
2) Delete temporary files
Key combination: Shift-ESC-(right arrow)
Symptoms: The communicator interface is
in a reboot cycle or a note saying that an
.ini file is corrupted is displayed.
Caution: All temporary files are removed.

Connectivity and printing
9. Fax modem problems
If you experience problems establishing a
data connection with the remote modem,
you can try fixing the data transmission rate
by using an AT command, for example,
ATS35=6, which defines the remote modem
as a V.32 modem. Common AT commands
(based on the ETSI 07.07 standard) supported
by the Nokia 9000i Communicator are listed
in the file atcomm.txt on the diskette sup-
plied with the product. For information on
how to use the AT commands, consult the
documentation of the telecommunication or
fax application that you use on your PC.
When the communicator is used as a fax mo-
dem (see Chapter 10 "System: Fax modem"
on page 10-5), use autobauding. The commu-
nicator and the PC must be using the same
baud rate. For the communicator, this is set
in System settings. For the PC, the baud rate
is set in the PC’s connectivity software.
If a cable connection is used, fully compatible
operation with all PC fax and terminal soft-
ware cannot be guaranteed (consult with
your Nokia retailer). If you experience prob-
lems with your PC fax software, use the in-
frared connection.
Connectivity and printing
10. Cannot print
must be facing each other, see Chapter 10
"System: Connecting to a PC" on page 10-6.
Direct printing is possible via an infrared link
only. The remote infrared port must be com-
patible to the IrDA standard. Check the IR
connection, see Chapter 10 "System: Con-
necting to a PC" on page 10-6.
12. Infrared connection
The communicator may be connected to a
computer, laptop or printer via an infrared
connection.
You are using an incorrect printer driver, see
Chapter 8 "Notes: Printing documents" on
page 8-4.
If you wish to use an infrared connection, the
computer to which you want to establish a
connection must have an IrDA compatible
infrared port; installed and activated IrDA
drivers; and Microsoft Windows 95 (for more
information on IrDA drivers and their use in
Windows 95, contact Microsoft).
If you fail to establish a working infrared
connection, transfer the file to a PC and use
the PC to print the document. See Chapter 10
"System: File transfer" on page 10-7. Alter-
natively, you can send the document as a fax
to the nearest fax machine. See Chapter 5
"Fax: Fax settings" on page 5-1.
If the IrDA drivers are activated on your com-
puter, the computer will automatically detect
the presence of the communicator.
11. PC connectivity problems
If you want use a printer which does not have
an infrared port, you may try to connect to
the printer via an IrDA adapter (not supplied
with the Nokia 9000i Communicator).
The PC software for desktop connectivity is
not installed, see Chapter 10 "System: Con-
necting to a PC" on page 10-6. The software
is found on the diskette included in the com-
municator sales package.
For further information see readme.txt file on
the diskette supplied with the communicator.
Check the cable or IrDA connection used. If
an infrared connection is used, the IR ports

Miscellaneous
13. Distorted Characters in Terminal
Reception is usually better above ground le-
vel, outdoors and while stationary. Some-
times even moving the cellular phone slightly
will improve reception. You can also try using
the communicator in the handsfree mode
with the communicator interface’s Telephone
application (see Chapter 4 "Telephone: Tele-
phone settings" on page 4-1). Remember to
turn the antenna to an upright position.
If the data bits/stop bits/parity settings are
different from those defined to the data ser-
vice by the operator, characters may look dis-
torted on the display.
14. Access code problems
The lock code is included in the communica-
tor sales package. If you forget or lose the
lock code, contact your Nokia retailer.
17. Low on memory
If you notice that your communicator’s mem-
ory is getting low or you receive a warning
note about insufficient memory, check the
Memory details (see Chapter 10 "System:
Memory" on page 10-11). Use the memory
details to determine what kind of data takes
up most memory.
If you forget or lose a PIN or PUK code, or you
have not received such a code, contact your
network operator.
For information about Internet or terminal
passwords, contact your Internet service
provider.
First, make a backup of all important data.
Next, either delete some data manually (doc-
uments, received faxes, etc.) You can also use
the Data removal application (see Chapter 10
"System: Data removal" on page 10-10).
With the Data removal application you can
delete old calendar data, for example.
15. Cannot open a directory entry in the direc-
tory view
If you cannot select a contact in the Tele-
phone, Fax, SMS or E-mail directory, it means
that the contact card does not have a tele-
phone number, fax number, GSM telephone
number or an e-mail address.
Note: Downloaded images and received faxes
can take up significant amounts of mem-
ory space.
Within the Contacts application, add the
missing information to the contact card.
16. Call quality is poor
18. Cannot access numbers stored on the SIM
Your location may not allow better call quality.
This problem may occur especially in a moving
car or train. Move to a location where radio
signal reception is better. See Chapter 16 "Im-
portant safety information: Facts about wire-
less data transmission" on page 16-3.
Use the phone interface’s Menu 8 3 2 to copy
the SIM card entries into the Contacts direc-
tory. See Chapter 13 "Phone interface: Detailed

the normal operating position.
Traffic safety
•
Do not use the communicator while driving a
vehicle. Park the vehicle before using the
communicator.
Always secure the communicator in its holder,
and ensure that the locking mechanism on top
of the holder is properly engaged; do not place
the communicator on the passenger seat or
where it can break loose in a collision or
sudden stop.
•
Users are advised to switch off the phone
interface when at a refueling point (service
station). Users are reminded of the need to
observe restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and
distribution areas), chemical plants or where
blasting operations are in progress.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or
explosive materials in the same compartment
as the communicator, its parts or accessories.
Only qualified personnel should install or
service the communicator in a vehicle. Faulty
installation or service may be dangerous and
may invalidate any warranty which may
apply to the unit.
Electronic fuel injection systems, electronic
anti-skid braking systems, electronic cruise
control systems and other electronic systems
can malfunction due to the lack of protection
from radio signals. Check regularly that all
cellular phone equipment in your vehicle is
mounted and operating properly.
Remember to make backup copies of all
important data to protect against its possible
loss or alteration.
When connecting the communicator to a PC
or printer, please refer to the User’s Guides of
those devices for detailed safety instructions.
The infrared beam of the communicator may
interfere with the functioning of other
infrared devices that are not IrDA certified. Do
not point the infrared beam at anyone’s eye.

may use the communicator interface applica-
tions in an aircraft. However, always switch
off the phone interface before boarding an
aircraft. The use of mobile telephones in an
aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of
the aircraft, disrupt the cellular network and is
illegal.
Failure to observe these instructions may
lead to suspension or denial of cellular tele-
phone services to the offender, or legal action
or both.
When making an emergency call, remember
to give all the necessary information as accu-
rately as possible. Remember that your mobile
phone may be the only means of communica-
tion at the scene of an accident - do not cut
off the call until given permission to do so.

Emergency calls
IMPORTANT!
Using this manual
The mobile phone described in this manual is ap-
proved for use in GSM1900 digital networks.
This manual is used for the Nokia 9000i Commu-
nicator GSM1900 model.
The Nokia 9000i Communicator, like any mobile
phone, operates using radio signals, cellular and
landline networks, as well as user-programmed
functions which cannot guarantee connection in
all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely
solely upon any mobile phone for essential com-
munications (e.g. medical emergencies).
A number of features described in this manual
are called Network Services. They are special
services provided by network operators. Before
you can take advantage of any of these Network
Services, you must subscribe to the service(s)
you require from your network operator. You can
then activate these functions as described in this
manual. The manual activation commands for
various services are not presented in this manual
Remember, to make or receive any calls the
communicator’s phone interface must be
switched on and in a service area with adequate
network signal strength.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all cel-
lular phone networks or when certain network
services and/or phone features are in use. Check
with your home network operator.
(e.g., using the
and
characters for acti-
vating or deactivating services). The Nokia 9000i
Communicator, nevertheless, is capable of
handling commands given in that form.
For these commands, please consult with your
home network operator.
Some networks require that a valid SIM card is
properly inserted in the communicator.
To make an emergency call:
WARNING! This apparatus is intended for use
when supplied with power from a Lithium-Ion
battery and chargers ACH-4UC, ACH-4E,
ACH-4X and ACH-4A. Other usage will inval-
idate any approval given to this apparatus and
may be dangerous.

Facts about wireless data transmission
The Nokia 9000i Communicator employs the
digital data transmission capabilities of the GSM
network to send faxes, short messages, e-mail
and to establish connections with remote
computers.
phone interface (if on) and remove the bat-
tery. Then replace the battery and establish a
new cellular connection.
Dead spots and dropouts
Dead spots are areas where radio signals cannot
be received. Dropouts occur when the cellular
phone user passes through an area where the
radio signal is blocked or reduced by geographic
or structural obstructions.
Wireless data connections can be made from
most locations where your mobile phone oper-
ates. However, it is recommended that you move
the communicator to a location where the
strongest possible cellular signal can be obtained.
When the signal is strong, data transmission is
efficient. In general, you should not expect the
same performance from wireless cellular data
communications as from landline communica-
tions due to the inherent characteristics of the
cellular environment.
Signal impairment
Distance and obstacles can cause out-of-
phase reflected signals that result in a loss of
signal strength.
Low signal strength
The following factors may impair digital cellular
connections:
Due to either distance or obstacles, the radio
signal strength from a cell site may not be
strong enough or stable enough to provide a
reliable cellular connection for communica-
tion. Therefore, to ensure the best possible
communication, remember to consider the
following points:
The data connection works best when the
communicator is in a stationary position.
Attempting cellular communication while in
a moving vehicle is not recommended. Fax
transmission is more easily impaired than
data or short message transmission.
Noise
Radio interference from electronic appliances
and equipment, as well as from other mobile
phones in metropolitan areas where mobile
telephones are prevalent.
•
Handover
As the mobile phone user moves from one
network cell to another, the signal strength
of the channel drops and the cellular tele-
phone exchange may hand the user over to a
different cell and frequency, where the signal
is stronger. A cell handover may also occur
when the user is stationary due to varying
cellular traffic loads. Such handovers may
cause slight delays.
•
•
Do not place the communicator on a metal
surface.
Check that the cellular signal strength on the
communicator displays is sufficient (see
Chapter 2 "Getting started: Indicators" on
page 2-10 and Chapter 13 "Phone interface:
Display indicators" on page 13-2 of this
manual). Moving the communicator within a
room especially towards a window, may
result in a stronger signal. If the cellular
signals are not strong enough to support a
voice call, data connection should not be
attempted until you can find a location with
better signal reception.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
A discharge of static electricity from a finger
or a conductor may cause erroneous functions
in electric devices. The discharge can result in
“garbled” display and unstable software oper-
ation. Cellular connections may become
unreliable, data may be corrupted, and the
transmission halted. In this case you need to
end the existing call (if any), switch off the
