NOKIA 2160 Cellular Telephone
(170-1227) Operation Faxback Doc. # 48778
Basics
Switching On or Off
Press and hold [PWR] for a second.
When switching on, if your phone has an extendible antenna, extend the
antenna fully. As with any other radio transmitting device, avoid
unnecessary contact with the antenna when the phone is switched on.
Push in the antenna when you are not using the phone.
The phone carries out a short self-test and briefly displays the phone
number in use.
A Personal Reminder Note appears if you have programmed one with Menu 4 5.
Press left [-] (Keep) to save it or right [-] (Erase) to delete it.
The phone can make and receive calls only when it is switched on and is
located in the cellular network's service area.
The phone automatically switches itself off if the operating temperature
exceeds 158 degrees F (70 degrees C).
Signal Strength
The stronger the radio signal, the better the call quality. The higher
the column on the left side of the phone display, the better the signal at
your location.
If the signal strength is not good, try moving the phone slightly. In a
building, reception may be better near a window.
Access Codes
Your phone uses several access codes that can protect against unauthorized
use of the phone.
When requested to do so, key in the code (appears as asterisks) and press
left [-] (OK). If you make a keying mistake, press [CLR] repeatedly to
erase digits one at a time.
Note: Avoid using access codes similar to emergency numbers such as 911
to prevent accidental dialing of the emergency number.
Security Code (5 digits)
Enter the 5-digit code then left [-] (OK) at Security Code: prompt.
The Security Code comes with your phone and is required with some phone
features. Keep it secret and in a safe place, separate from the phone.
You cannot change the Security Code. If you need a new one, contact your
dealer. The default is 12345.
If you enter an incorrect security code (CODE ERROR) five times in a row,
the phone won't accept any entries for the next five minutes.
Lock Code
You need the 4-digit lock code to turn on the Automatic Phone Lock in Menu
5 1, or to change the Lock Code in Menu 5 2. The default Lock Code is
1234.
5. Making and Receiving Calls
Answering a Call
- > Press any key (except [PWR], [END], [ABC] or volume keys) then speak.
If Keyguard is on, only [SND] answers calls. Pressing [END] stops the
ringing sound, but doesn't answer the call.
Making a Call
- > Extend antenna fully.
- > Key in phone number.
- > [SND].
Your phone can make and receive calls only when it is switched on and in
the cellular network's service area. NO SERVICE means that you are
probably outside the cellular service area. No calls can be placed or
received. If you try to make a call while NO SERVICE is displayed, the
phone displays WAIT FOR SERVICE, and tries to make the call for the next 2
minutes.
Note: Check with your cellular system operator for information about when
you need to dial a '1' and/or an area code in addition to the
number.
If you make a mistake dialing

The phone recalls the phone number from the memory, displays it briefly,
then dials it.
Note: If you press 1 [SND], the phone dials the number stored with Menu
2 3, Set Voice Mailbox Number. If you press 9 [SND], the phone
initiates an emergency call only if Menu 3 4, Emergency Key 9, is

through the last 10 dialed numbers. Otherwise, the phone
automatically dials the most recently dialed number.
1-Touch Dialing
Press and hold the key (2 to 8) for a few seconds until the call is
started.
The phone recalls the phone number from memory, displays it briefly, then
dials it. To use this feature, Menu 3 3, One Touch Dialing, must be On
and you must have stored numbers in the location corresponding to the
number you pressed. See the "Personal Directory" in Faxback Doc. # 48780
for details on storing numbers.
Note: If you press 1 [SND], the phone dials the number stored with Menu
2 3, Set Voice Mailbox Number. If you press 9 [SND], the phone
initiates an emergency call only if Menu 3 4, Emergency Key 9, is
set On!
Important!: Official emergency numbers vary by location (e.g. 911 or
other official emergency number). Only one emergency number
is programmed into your phone to be dialed automatically by
one key emergency dialing, which may not be the proper number
in all circumstances. One key emergency dialing does not
operate when Keyguard is in use or when the phone is
connected to a modem.
Emergency key 9
- > Press 9 then [SND]
OR:
- > Press and hold 9 for more than 3 seconds.
The phone dials the preprogrammed emergency number (e.g. 911) with either
of these dialing methods. You can also dial an emergency number as usual
by keying in the whole emergency number then [SND].
Note: Pressing and holding Emergency Key 9 to dial an emergency call does
not function when Keyguard is in use or when the phone is connected
to a modem. (See "keyguard" later in this chapter for more
information on Keyguard.)
Note: Emergency Key 9 works only if it has been set On in Menu 3 4!
Voice Mail Key 1
Press and hold [1 o_o] for a few seconds.
The phone dials the number stored with Menu 2 3, Set Voice Mailbox Number.
Earpiece Volume
Two volume buttons on the side of the phone adjust the earpiece volume.
The upper volume button increases and the lower volume button decreases
the volume.
If an accessory with its own loudspeaker is connected to the phone, the
volume keys select the volume for that accessory.
Muting/Unmuting the phone's microphone
- > Press and hold left [-] (Menu) for a few seconds.
- > \/ to Mute or Unmute.
- > left [-] (OK).
Muting and unmuting may be done only during an active call.
Calling Line Identification
If you have subscribed to and activated this network service, the phone
displays the caller's phone number if the system is able to identify it.
The phone displays the caller's name if you have stored that caller's name
and number, and the person calls you from the number you have stored.
CALL or NO ID CALL displays when the number is not available. PRIVATE ID
CALL displays when the caller has prevented the number from being shown.
Note: For information about availability of and subscription to Calling
Line Identification Presentation, contact your system operator.
Distinct Ringing
You may set your phone to ring distinctly when particular people call. To
do this, store the person's name and number in your phone and include the
character "!" somewhere in the person's name. Your phone rings distinctly
when there is an incoming call from that person's number. For details on
storing names and numbers, see "The Personal Directory" in Faxback Doc.
# 48780.
Note: Distinct Ringing works only when Calling Line Identification is
active.

Keyguard prevents accidental key presses (e.g. when the phone is in your
pocket). Press left [-] (Menu) then * to activate or deactivate keyguard.
You can also activate Keyguard by using left [-] (Menu) 11.
Keyguard cannot be activated when the phone is connected to a car kit or
in a handsfree desktop charger.
Note: When Keyguard is ON, calls may be possible to the emergency number
911 (911 [SND]). Pressing 9 [SND] should also work, if Menu 3 4,
Emergency Key 9, is set ON. However, pressing and holding

When placing an emergency call, the emergency number will be displayed
only after you have keyed in all its digits. After the emergency call,
Keyguard becomes active again.

phone as usual. After you end the call, Keyboard becomes active again.

subscribed to it through your network operator. For details on Call
