INTRODUCTION

This guide provides instruction on how to install Nokia Connectivity Cable Drivers for USB cables DKU-2, CA-53, and DKE-2, and for serial cable CA-42. Drivers are required if you want to connect a Nokia mobile phone to a PC. For information on which cable to use with your phone model, see the phones users guide or the web page www.nokia.com/pcsuite > Features Supported by Your Phone. Note: Drivers are always installed for specific phone models, not for a cable. For this reason older versions of Connectivity Cable Drivers may not support the latest phone models. Note: If you have installed Nokia PC Suite 6.41 or later, you do not need to install Nokia Connectivity Cable Drivers, as they have already been installed with Nokia PC Suite. If you have a new Nokia phone model and the Windows operating system does not find drivers for it, install a later version of Connectivity Cable Drivers or Nokia PC Suite and try again. Note: Always make sure you use original Nokia cables with Nokia PC Suite to ensure reliable operation of the PC Suite applications. Check the labelling on your cable.

TROUBLESHOOTING

For more troubleshooting information, go to the Nokia PC Suite web pages www.nokia.com/pcsuite and from the menu on the left select Support > FAQ Search. Connection does not work To re-establish the connection, do the following: Make sure that your phone supports the cable: see the phones users guide or the web page www.nokia.com/pcsuite > Features Supported by Your Phone. Reboot your phone and the PC and then try to re-establish the connection. If you have other USB devices connected to the PC, unplug them from the PC and then try to re-establish the connection. Check that you do not unplug the mouse or the keyboard. Make sure that the connection type is active in Nokia Connection Manager: Start > (Settings) Control Panel > Nokia Connection Manager. For CA-42 the selected type must be Serial cable and for DKU-2, CA-53 and DKE-2 the type must be USB. If you use a CA-42 cable make sure the correct COM port is set in Nokia Connection Manager: Start > (Settings) Control Panel > Nokia Connection Manager > Configure 1. Connect your phone to the PC with the cable and wait until Windows has found all new hardware. 2. Go to Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager. (If you are using Windows XP, use the Classic View of Control Panel.) 3. Click Wireless Communication Devices. If the Nokia devices are listed without an exclamation mark next to the icon, the installation was successful.

The number of listed devices may vary according to the phone model. 4. Click Modems.
