Infrared (Menu 9)
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.
Note: The phone must be switched on to use this function. Do not switch on the phone when the use of a
wireless phone is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.
