Your mobile phone supports services
based on the Wireless Application
Protocol (WAP). The built-in WAP

browser allows you to access services supplied with
your network, such as news, sports, weather, etc.

Your mobile phone readily supports the WAP function
if it is included in your subscription; if your phone was
pre-configured, it shouldn’t be necessary for you to
change the settings described in this section.
With some operators, WAP parameters can be set
remotely. Please check directly with your operator for
detailed information.

This main menu of the WAP browser allows you to
configure the settings related to WAP, connect to
your operator’s homepage, define bookmarks for
direct and faster connections, etc.
