Welcome

Congratulations on the purchase of this car phone, which allows you to access GSM900 networks worldwide.

GSM, the Global System for Mobile Communications, is the digital standard used in many countries throughout the world, enabling you to benefit from the GSM services provided by your car phone.

About labels on your car phone

Your car phone has labels on it which are important for service and related purposes. Therefore be careful not to remove or lose any label or the information it contains.

Security code

The factory setting for the security code is 12345. It is supplied with the car phone on an identification sticker. The security code protects your car phone against unauthorised use.

Change the code, see "4-3 Security settings" on page 28, and keep the new code secret and in a safe place separate from the car phone.

Using this guide

The car phone described in this guide is approved for use on the GSM900 network.

There are a number of features included in this guide which are called Network Services. They are special services provided by wireless service providers. Before you can take advantage of any of these Network Services, you must subscribe to these services with your home service provider and obtain instructions for their use.

In this manual, the menu names and commands that appear on the display of your phone are always in bold print. For example: Phone book, calling.

1. Getting Started

Your car phone consists of two major parts:

1. Handset
2. Radio unit

Before you can use your car phone, you must place a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card in the phone.

Your car phone has two SIM card readers: one in the radio unit and the other in the handset. The factory setting assigns the card reader in the handset priority; the car phone will only work with the prioritised card (e.g. Phone book).

The user can change the priority of the card readers for use via the menu, see "4-2-7 SIM card priority" on page 28. The user's priority setting is then used as a default setting. If only one reader is initially loaded with a card, that reader is automatically used.

If an invalid or corrupted SIM card is used in the prioritised card reader, the user is notified through a message on the display. The phone will not try to use a different card reader with a lower priority. Switch off the car phone and remove the invalid SIM card. Then restart the car phone. The car phone will then work with the second SIM card.

Inserting a SIM card in the radio unit

The SIM card and the contacts stored in it can easily be damaged if scratched or bent, so be careful when handling, inserting or removing the card.

Before you insert the SIM card, make sure that the car phone has been switched off!

Insert the SIM card into the slot so that the contacts are towards the radio unit.

5. Reference Information

Facts about cellular transmission

Your car phone employs the data transmission capabilities of the GSM network to send faxes, short messages and e-mail and to establish connections with remote computers.

GSM data capabilities of your car phone

• Data compression with V.42bis
• Non-transparent and transparent data transfer at 9.6kbit/s
• AT commands
  (for further information, see Nokia 6090 Product Support on www.forum.nokia.com website)
• Fax service classes 1, 2 and 2.0 and ECM (sending)
• SMS sending and receiving

Cellular data connections can be made from most of the locations where your car phone operates. However, we recommend that you move the car 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 cellular data communications as from line-connected communications due to the inherent characteristics of the cellular environment. The following factors may impair cellular connections:

Noise

Radio interference from electronic appliances and equipment as well as from surrounding traffic may impact the transmission quality.

Handover

As the car phone user moves from one network cell to another, the signal strength of the channel drops and the cellular telephone 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.

Dead spots and dropouts

Dead spots are areas where radio signals cannot be received. Dropouts occur when the car phone user passes through an area where the radio signal is blocked or reduced by geographic or structural obstructions.

Low signal strength

Due to either distance or obstacles, the radio signal strength from a cell site may not be strong or stable enough to provide reliable cellular connection for communication. Therefore, to ensure the best possible communication, remember to take the following points into consideration when using your car phone:

The data and fax connection works best when the car is stationary. Attempting cellular communication while in a moving vehicle is not recommended. Fax transmission is more easily impaired than data or short message transmission.

Check that the cellular signal strength on the handset display is sufficient. 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.

Environmental impacts

Your car phone works in an temperature range between -20^ and +60^ .

Access codes

You can use the access codes described in this section to prevent unauthorised use of your phone and SIM card.

Your car phone may contain two different SIM cards. These cards use different access codes. Remember to check which SIM card is currently in use.

The access codes (except PUK and PUK2 codes) can be changed by using the menu "4-3-5 Change access codes" on page 29. If you want to change the codes of the second SIM card, you have to change the priority of the card reader, see "4-2-7 SIM card priority" on page 28, restart the car phone and change the codes of the second SIM card.

Security code (5 digits)

The security code can be used to prevent unauthorised use of your phone. The security code (factory setting: 12345) is usually supplied with the phone.

Change the code, see "4-3 Security settings" on page 28, and keep the code secret and in a safe place separate from the phone.

PIN code (4 to 8 digits)

The PIN (Personal Identification Number) code protects your SIM card against unauthorised use. The PIN code is usually supplied with the SIM card.

PIN2 code (4 to 8 digits)

The PIN2 code, supplied with some SIM cards, is required to access some functions, such as call cost limit. These functions are only available if supported by your SIM card.

PUK code (8 digits)

The PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) code is required to change a blocked PIN code. The PUK code may be supplied with the SIM card. If not, contact your local service provider for the code. If you lose the code, contact your service provider.

PUK2 code (8 digits)

The PUK2 code, supplied with some SIM cards, is required to change a blocked PIN2 code. If you lose the code, contact your service provider.

Battery information

Your radio unit does not contain its own battery. The voltage is supplied straight from your car battery to the car phone. The car phone works with a voltage from 10.8V to 16V.

If the voltage is higher than 16V, the car phone switches off automatically and remains off until the voltage drops to a value within the permissible range.

If the voltage of the car battery drops lower than 10.8V, a warning appears that phone calls are not possible because of low power. If the voltage drops below approx. 6V, the phone switches off and will automatically switch on as soon as the voltage rises again. The next time the car phone is turned on, a message appears on the display giving the reason for the error.

Accessories

Warning! Use only accessories approved by the phone manufacturer for use with this particular phone model. The use of any other types will invalidate any approval or warranty applying to the phone, and may be dangerous.

6090 DIN/ISO installation kit

Line drawing of a rectangular electronic device with internal components and ventilation slots (no text or symbols)

With the DIN/ISO installation kit, the Nokia 6090 is optimally designed for easy installation in your car, either in the dashboard or in the central console. You have easy access to the radio unit SIM reader or the data connector. For availability of approved accessories, please check with your dealer.

Warning! When you disconnect the power cord of any accessory, grasp and pull the plug, not the cord.

GSM antenna

This antenna is used to connect your car phone to the wireless GSM network. The antenna is not included in the package and has to be purchased separately. Your Nokia dealer can advise you about the antenna that best suits your needs. A dedicated 8W GSM 900 antenna is recommended, combined GSM-phone/FM-radio antennas are not, because they might not be designed for 8W output power. The frequency switch of a combined antenna can be destroyed and the FM-radio reception quality might suffer.

Data cable

This cable is used to connect your car phone to your device (e.g. to the 9-pin serial port of a compatible portable computer or portable fax). As this cable is a standard cable (1:1 modem cable, also called "DB9-prolongator cable" or "RS-232 modem cable") and is not included in the phone package, it can be purchased in shops that sell accessories for computers. To enable a compatible computer to communicate with the phone, a driver file can be downloaded from Nokia 6090 Product Support on www.forum.nokia.com website, and installed in the computer according to instructions provided there.

Care and Maintenance

Your car phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The suggestions below will help you to fulfil any warranty obligations and to enjoy this product for many years. When using your car phone or any accessory:

• Keep it and all its parts and accessories out of small children's reach.
• Keep it dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain minerals that may corrode electronic circuits.
• Do not use or store it in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts can be damaged.
• Do not attempt to open it. Non-expert handling of the device may damage it.
• Do not drop, knock or shake it. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong detergents to clean it. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water solution.
• Do not paint it. Paint can clog the device's moving parts and prevent proper operation.

- If the car phone is not working properly, take it to your nearest qualified service facility. The personnel there will assist you and, if necessary, arrange for service.

Do not use a handheld telephone while driving a vehicle. If using a handheld telephone park the vehicle before conversing. Always secure the phone in its holder; do not place the phone on the passenger seat or where it can break loose in a collision or upon a sudden stop.

The use of an alert device to operate a vehicle's lights or horn on public roads is not permitted.

Remember road safety always comes first!

Operating environment

Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always switch off your phone whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or danger.

When connecting the phone or any accessory to another device, read its user's guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.

As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for the satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that the equipment should only be used in the normal operating position.

Electronic devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your car phone.

Hearing aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider.

Other medical devices

Operation of any radio-transmitting equipment, including cellular phones, may interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if your devices are adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you should have any questions.

Switch off your car phone in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles (e.g. electronic

fuel injection systems, electronic anti-skid (anti-lock) braking systems, electronic speed control systems, airbag systems).

Check with the manufacturer or their representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Posted facilities

Switch your car phone off in any facility where posted notices require you to do so.

Potentially explosive atmospheres

Switch off your car phone when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Users are advised to switch off the car phone 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.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include below-deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using liquified petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

Vehicles

Only qualified personnel should service or install the car phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty which may apply to the unit.

Check regularly that all car phone equipment in your vehicle is mounted and operating properly.

Do not store or transport flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in the same compartment as the car phone, its parts or accessories.

For vehicles equipped with an airbag, remember that an airbag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment in the area over the airbag or in the airbag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the airbag inflates, serious injury could result.

Failure to observe these instructions may lead to suspension or denial of telephone services to the offender or legal action or both.

Emergency calls

Important! This car phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless and landline networks as well as user-programmed functions which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone for essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies).

Remember, to make or receive any calls, the car phone must be switched on and in a service area with adequate signal strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain network services and/or phone features are in use. Check with local cellular service providers.

To make an emergency call:

1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.
   Some networks may require that a valid SIM card is properly inserted in the phone.
2. Press and hold ⓒ for several seconds to ready the phone for calls.
3. Key in the emergency number applicable for your present location (e.g. 112 or other official emergency number). Emergency numbers vary according to location.
4. Press — (Call).

If certain features are in use (Fixed dialling, etc.), you may first need to turn those features off before you can make an emergency call. Consult this document and your local cellular service provider.

When making an emergency call, remember to give all the necessary information as accurately as possible. Remember that your wireless phone may be the only means of communication at the scene of an accident – do not cut off the call until given permission to do so.

Isometric line drawing of a connector with two pins and three leads (no text or symbols)

The phone audio line-out has to be connected to the car radio line-in. It delivers two differential audio signals, each one surrounded by a mass. At a load impedance >

1kOhm, the nominal level is 70 mVrms, the maximum level 2000 mVrms. Check with your car radio dealer to ensure that your specific radio line-in is compatible with your phone equipment.

Note: The SIM card and antenna represented here are not included in the package.

Recommendations

Warning! Only qualified personnel should service the car phone or install the car phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty which may apply to the unit.

Note: When installing the car kit in Australia and New Zealand, the 6090 should be installed in accordance with AS/NZS 4346.

- Microphone installation

The recommended position for the microphone should be the top of the A-pillar or, alternatively, near the back mirror in the middle of the car. The microphone should be pointed in the direction of the driver's mouth with a optimum distance of 30 cm. Streams of fresh air should not be directed at the microphone and the microphone cable should not be laid in the ventilation system. Use the provided soft material to connect the HF microphone to the A-pillar in order to avoid any noise coupling from the car to the microphone.

- Loudspeaker installation

The best position for the RF speaker is in the lower front-seat passenger area.

- Audio line out

Handsfree can also be provided by using the audio line out signal of the 6090 in combination with an appropriate FM car radio supporting the audio line-in function which enables use of the car loudspeaker system instead of using the delivered handsfree loudspeaker HFS-10. For good performance, use the front loudspeaker only and adjust the volume via the 6090 handset. So that keypad and warning tones may be audible, the external handsfree loudspeaker also has to be installed as described above. In case the FM car radio is not equipped with a connector for the audio line-out signal (see picture), the connector may be removed in order that the two wires can be directly connected to the FM car radio line-in. Since the 6090 audio line-out provides a differential signal instead of a +/- signal, the wires may be connected either way.

Warning! Don't connect the handsfree loudspeaker cable (3) to the car radio line-in, you would damage the phone and the car radio. Make sure you connect it only to the HFS-10 loudspeaker provided. Do not use any other loudspeaker than the one provided. Only the audio line-out cable provided (10) may be connected to a car radio.

- Connection to the car battery

Take the voltage directly from the car battery and use the cable supplied with the sales packages. This cable includes fuses to protect the phone. If you do not so, noise may impact the quality of the 6090 loudspeaker. The description

of the cable and its colour may be taken from the attached illustration.

- GSM antenna

A dedicated 8W GSM antenna is recommended. For more information about antenna see "GSM antenna" on page 37. Warning! In order to comply with RF exposure requirements for mobile transmitting devices, a minimum distance of 20 cm must be maintained between the antenna and all persons.

• Connect only the 6090 handset to the system connector as shown in the installation picture.
• When installing the radio unit, ensure a sufficient air supply (e.g. not in a box under the carpet).
• Do not extend the system cable by any wires.
• Use only correct fuses.
• The backlight dimming line (9) requires a signal from the car that matches VDA specifications if backlight dimming of the phone is to be fully functional.

For further information, see Nokia 6090 Product Support on www.forum.nokia.com website.

Glossary

Alternate line service (ALS)

Alternate line service allows you to have two different phone numbers, which page the same SIM card. Each of these phone numbers can have different settings: call barrings, diverts, etc. This is a network service which has to be subscribed to separately with your service provider. These two phone numbers are handled as separate numbers in the network. They are invoiced separately and can be used, for example, for differentiating between personal and business calls.

Car data

Car data includes data that contains the essential information about your car. This information is required in emergency situations.

Data centre number

This number is needed when your phone has been connected to a laptop PC via an RS232-cable and you want to make data calls.

DTMF (Dual Tone Multi-Frequency) tones

DTMF tones are the tones you hear when you press the number keys on the phone keypad. DTMF tones allow you to communicate with voice mailboxes, computerised telephony systems, etc.

PIN (Personal Identity Number) code

The PIN code protects your phone from unauthorised use. The PIN code is supplied with the SIM card. If the PIN code request is set to on, the code is required each time the phone is switched on. The PIN code must be 4 to 8 digits long.

PIN2 code

The PIN2 code is supplied with some SIM cards. The PIN2 code is required to access certain functions supported by the SIM card. The length of the PIN2 code is 4 to 8 digits.

PUK (PIN Unblocking Key) code

The PUK is an 8-digit code supplied with the SIM card. The code is required should you desire to change a disabled PIN code. If you enter an incorrect PUK code ten times in succession, the SIM card is rejected and you cannot make or receive any calls, except emergency calls. If the SIM is rejected, you will need a new SIM card.

You cannot change the PUK code. If you lose the code, contact your network operator.

PUK2 code

The PUK2 code is supplied with some SIM cards. The code is required when you wish to change a disabled PIN2 code. If you en-

ter an incorrect PUK2 code ten times in succession, you will not be able to access the functions which require the PIN2 code. To use these functions again, you will need to obtain a new SIM card from your network operator.

You cannot change the PUK2 code. If you lose the code, contact your network operator.

Security code

The security code is supplied with the car phone on an identification sticker (factory setting: 12345). The security code protects your car phone against unauthorised use.

Change the code, see "4-3-5 Change access codes" on page 29, and keep the new code secret and in a safe place, separate from the car phone.

SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card

The SIM card contains all the information the cellular network needs to identify the network user. The SIM card also contains security-related information.

The Nokia 6090 contains two SIM cards: one in the handset, a plug-in SIM card, and a larger one in the phone unit: the IC-1 card. The cards differ solely in size.

SMSC number

Short message centre number is needed for sending of short messages. You have to save this number in Message settings.

Voice mailbox

A voice mailbox is a network service or a personal answering machine where people can leave you voice messages.
