17 Minibrowser
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 69.)
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.
