Warning! Your phone must be switched on to use this function. Do not switch
the phone on when wireless phone use is prohibited or when it may cause
interference or danger.
Important: This feature is available only if your service provider’s network
supports mobile internet access. Your service provider may also require that you
subscribe to this additional service. For more information, contact your service
provider.
The minibrowser feature allows you to access special Internet content designed
specifically for viewing from your mobile phone. The browser menu allows you to save
addresses of Web sites as bookmarks, so you can return to your favorite sites quickly
and easily.
• UNDERSTAND BROWSING SESSIONS AND INDICATORS
When you launch the minibrowser, two icons appear on the screen status bar:
Minibrowser icon (you are in a minibrowser session)
Active call icon (you are being billed accordingly)
High-speed data indicator (you are connected to high-speed data network)
The minibrowser disconnects from the network after inactivity. This function minimizes
your bill. You may be billed for several network connections in a single session. You can
still access pages stored in memory without the connection. If you navigate to a page
not stored in memory, a new connection is established and you will be billed
accordingly.
• LAUNCHING THE MINIBROWSER
The first time you launch the minibrowser, you go through a security setup process that
takes three to five minutes (follow the on-screen prompts).
1 Press Menu, scroll to Minibrowser, then press Connect.
A message appears, reminding you that you may be billed for the connection time.
(You can disable this message. See “Disable minibrowser confirmations” on
page 73.)
2 Press Yes. After a few seconds, the Home Page
appears. Your menu may vary according to your
service provider.
You can also launch the minibrowser by pressing and
holding the 0 key from the Start screen.
END A BROWSING SESSION
To end a minibrowser session, press and hold the End
key.
