Infrared
You can set up the phone to receive data through its infrared (IR) port. To use an IR
connection, the device with which you want to establish a connection must be
IrDA compliant. You can send or receive data such as business cards and calendar
notes to or from a compatible phone or data device (for example a computer) via
the IR port of your phone.
Do not point the IR (infrared) beam at anyone’s eye or allow it to interfere with other IR
devices. This device is a Class 1 Laser product.

Sending and receiving data via IR
• Ensure that the IR ports of the sending and receiving devices are pointing at
each other and that there are no obstructions between the devices. The
preferable distance between the two devices in an infrared connection should
be one meter at most.

transfer.
If the data transfer is not started within two minutes after the activation of the IR
port, the connection is cancelled and has to be started again.
