Backup/restore
Backups are usually made to a USB mass storage device and contain user-spe-
cific data.
A backup includes the following components:
• All user settings for configuration
• Call forwarding instructions with default destinations
• Phonebook entries with relevant data
• Ringtones
•Photos
• Screensavers
• Call list entries
The USB mass storage device is only used to back up and restore the user area
in the phone memory. You do not have to remove the USB medium after a back
-
up. You can create multiple backups on the medium and restore them as re-
quired. You can also restore the backups saved on another phone as a means
of transporting your settings and data, for instance, if your phone has to be re
-
placed.
A restore operation only works if the relevant settings are enabled on the phone
and the current software release supports these settings.
Every backup is given a separate name and is password-protected. Setting the
password encrypts the content of the backup. Data can only be restored after
entering the password set. The backup file is not automatically deleted after a
restore operation.
A USB pen drive must be connected to the USB port provided so that the
options described below are available to you. Otherwise you are only of
-
fered the "Close" option.
