Infrared

Do not point the infrared (IR) beam at anyone's eye or allow

it to interfere with other IR devices. This device is a Class 1

laser product.
Use infrared to connect two devices and transfer data

between them. With infrared, you can transfer data such as

business cards, calendar notes, and media files with a

compatible device.
1. Ensure that the infrared ports of the devices face each

other. The positioning of the devices is more important

than the angle or distance.

2. Select

Menu

>

Connectivity

>

Infrared

to switch on

infrared on your device.

3. Switch on infrared on the other device and wait a few

seconds until the infrared connection is established.

4. Locate the desired file in an application or File manager,

and select

Options

>

>

Via infrared

.

If the data transfer is not started within 1 minute after the

activation of the infrared port, the connection is cancelled

and must be started again.
All items received through infrared are placed in the Inbox

folder in Messaging.
Positioning the devices away from each other breaks the

connection, but the infrared light beam remains active on

your device until it deactivates.
