• PICTURE MESSAGES

The Nokia 6340 comes with 10 pre-loaded pictures and 5 empty storage
slots (15 total). You can, however, over-write any of the 10 pictures that
come with your phone. Pictures can be attached to a message and sent
via SMS to compatible phones. Picture messages behave the same as text
messages, but pictures take up more space than text. Pictures are stored
in the “Templates” folder (Messages - Templates).

Note: You cannot send a picture message via e-mail.

Download pictures

The Nokia 6340 can download pictures, or receive them from compatible
phones via SMS to use in messages. You can also create pictures and send
them to your phone or other compatible phones using Nokia PC Suite.

Note: This function can be used only if it is supported by your
network operator or wireless provider. Only phones that offer
picture message features can receive and display picture
messages. Contact your wireless provider for details.

When you receive a picture message, your phone beeps and Message
received
appears in the display as well as the unopened letter icon (

TO SAVE THE PICTURE
If you’d like to save the picture to your Templates folder for later use:

1

Press Options, scroll to Save, and press OK.

Note: If your templates folder is full of pictures, just scroll to the

Compose and send a picture message

One picture message is equivalent in size (and cost) to 3 text messages.
When you attach a picture to a message, you’ll have enough remaining
space for about 121 characters in the message. If you try and attach a
picture to a message which is almost full of text, a beep sounds and you’re
prompted to erase some text before proceeding.

At the Start screen, press Menu 01-1 (Messages - Write message).

After a brief pause, the message edit screen appears in the display.

2

Write a message using the keypad (or enter nothing if you choose),
and press Options.

Tip: Attach pictures before adding text. You can then check
remaining space for text in the upper right corner of the display.

3

Scroll to Attach picture and press Select.

A list of pictures appear in the display.

4

Scroll to a picture and press View.

5

Press Attach to insert the picture into your message, otherwise:

6

To send the picture message, press Options, scroll to Send, and
