Offline profile
The
Offline
profile lets you use the device without
connecting to the wireless network. When you activate the
Offline
profile, the connection to the wireless network is
turned off, as indicated by
in the signal strength
indicator area. All wireless RF signals to and from the
device are prevented. If you try to send messages, they are
placed in the outbox to be sent later.
When the
Offline
profile is active, you can use your device
without a SIM card.
Important: In the offline profile you cannot make or
receive any calls, or use other features that require cellular
network coverage. Calls may still be possible to the official
emergency number programmed into your device. To make
calls, you must first activate the phone function by
changing profiles. If the device has been locked, enter the
lock code.
You can also use Bluetooth connectivity while in the
Offline
profile. See ‘Bluetooth connectivity’, p. 59.
To leave the
Offline
profile, press the power key, and select
another profile. The device re-enables wireless
transmissions (providing there is sufficient signal
strength).
