Radios

Your device has a separate GSM radio and wireless LAN radio. Switching off the device by pressing the power key on the device
cover switches off both radios.
Note, however, that switching off the device or using the offline profile does not prevent you from establishing a new wireless
LAN connection. Therefore, remember to comply with any applicable safety requirements when establishing and using a wireless
LAN connection.
See "Setting the offline profile," p. 23.

Antennas

Your device has two internal antennas.
Note: As with any other radio transmitting device, do not touch either of the antennas unnecessarily when the device
is switched on. Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the device to operate at a higher power
level than otherwise needed. Not touching the antenna area during a phone call optimises the antenna performance
and the talktime of your device.
