4. Basics
Switching On or Off Press and hold P for
a second.
When switching on, if your phone has an extendible
antenna, extend the antenna fully. As with any other
radio transmitting device, avoid unnecessary contact
with the antenna when the phone is switched on.
Push in the antenna when you are not using the phone.
The phone carries out a short self-test and briefly
displays the phone number in use.
A Personal Reminder Note appears if you have
programmed one with Menu 4 5. Press left
F (

)to
save it or right
F (

) to delete it.
The phone can make and receive calls only when it is
switched on and is located in the cellular network’s
service area.
The phone automatically switches itself off if the
operating temperature exceeds 158°F (70°C).
Signal Strength
The stronger the radio signal, the better
the call quality. The higher the column on
the left side of the phone display, the
better the signal at your location.
If the signal strength is not good, try
moving the phone slightly. In a building,
reception may be better near a window.
Access Codes
Your phone uses several access codes that can protect
against unauthorized use of the phone.
When requested to do so, key in the code (appears as
asterisks) and press left
F (OK). If you make a keying
mistake, press
C repeatedly to erase digits one at a
time.
