Using Internet Explorer
Adding a Web page to the Favourites list
Internet Explorer functions on your phone much the same as it does on your PC. You can keep a list of
web sites in your Favourites list, adding each site to the list via the Internet Explorer menus.
1. On the home screen, press Start > All Programs > Internet Explorer.
2. Press Menu > Address Bar, enter the address of the page you want to add and press Go.
3. Press Menu > Add to Favourites.
4. Confirm or change the name and Web page address.
5. In Folder, select a location for this Favourite.
6. Press Add.
TIP: A quick way to add Favourites to your phone is to synchronise with your PC, using ActiveSync.
For more information, see ActiveSync® Help on your PC.

Changing connection options
Depending on your location and your access settings, you can connect to different networks through
Internet Explorer.
1. On the home screen, press Start > All Programs > Internet Explorer.
2. Press Menu > Tools > Options.
3. Press Connections. Do one of the following:
•
Default setting – Uncheck automatically detect settings and WAP network.
•
Change to surfing internet to any web site through service provider Proxy server.
•
Checking automatically detect settings will mean you can surf the internet using ActiveSync®.
In this setting, you can't access sites like MEdia Net.
4. Press Done.
Changing Web page display options
There are several Web page display options to choose from: text size, one column (to avoid horizontal
scrolling), fit to screen, and desktop layout.
1. On the home screen, press Start > All Programs > Internet Explorer.
2. Select one of the web sites.
3. Press Menu > View. Select one of the following:
•
Zoom Level: The text on the Web pages displayed on your phone can be made larger or smaller.
•
One Column: Arranges the content into one column that is as wide as the screen. This means you
rarely need to scroll horizontally.
•
Fit To Screen: This option offers a layout similar to what you see on a desktop computer, but makes
items smaller and arranges the content so you can see most of it, without having to scroll horizontally.
•
Desktop: Keeps the same layout and size as a desktop computer, so both horizontal and vertical
scrolling are necessary.
