The System settings include all system-related permanent settings:
System sounds — Covers all the sounds in the communicator. The available
settings are:
Default ringing tone — The default ringing tone is the normal ringing tone
of your phone. The default ringing tone will sound every time you get a
phone call from someone who does not have a personal ringing tone set in
the contact card. You can select one of the tones in the pop-up box or
compose a special ringing tone for your telephone with the Composer
application. See ”Composer” on page 127. You can also use the sounds you
have recorded with the Digital voice recorder as ringing tones. See ”Voice
recorder” on page 131. If a tone or sound is erased, the default ringing tone
Nokia tune will replace it.
Note: When one of the PC connectivity applications
or the fax modem is in use, the communicator
consumes more power than normally. To extend the
battery operation time, these applications should be
closed when they are not used.

Alternate ringing tone — If your SIM card supports the alternate line
service, you can select a different ringing tone for Line 2. See ”Telephone
settings” on page 53.
Notification tones: On/Off — Determines whether a sound is heard, for
example, when the memory is too low.
Application tones: Calendar alarm, Clock alarm, Received fax, Received
SMS, Received mail — For each of these items you can set a specific ringing
tone. You would then be able to tell by the tone whether you have received
a fax or a short message, for example.
The None option allows you to turn the selected tone off, with the
exception of the clock alarm. Note that when the phone is turned off, only
calendar and clock alarm ringing tones can be heard. This requires,
however, that the ringing tones are set through the System settings.
