Keeping tabs on signal strength.
First of all, the voice quality of your phone will always be at its
best when the antenna is fully raised. If you're inside a building,
reception may be better near a window.
The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the
signal strength in your area. Your phone will inform you of the
current strength by displaying a number of bars next to the signal
strength icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger the signal.
(See page 14 for an illustration of the signal strength indicators.)
Understanding Power Save mode.
If you're trying to use your Sprint PCS Phone in an area where the
signal is too weak, the Power Save feature will automatically
activate to conserve battery power when you've been unable to
pick up a signal for 15 minutes. If your phone is on, it will
periodically recheck service availability, or you can do so yourself
manually by pressing any key. A message will be displayed on the
screen any time Power Save has been activated.
