ting device, avoid unnecessary contact with the antenna

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.

The phone can make and receive calls only when it
is switched on and is located in the cellular net-
work’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 a Security Code or Lock Code to help
protect against unauthorized use of the phone.
Note: Avoid using access codes similar to emergency
numbers such as 911 to prevent accidental dialing of the
emergency number.
