I pressed the power button, but
nothing happened. What's
wrong with my phone?
The battery won't charge.
My battery didn't last as long as
I expected. What can I do to
extend battery life?
The display says, "Locked." How
do I unlock my phone?
I tried to place a call and
received a fast busy signal.
Make sure that you press and hold the power button until the display appears and you hear an audible
alert. If nothing still happens, then check that you have installed the batteries and that the batteries are fully
charged. For more information about batteries and charging see "Your Battery" on page 15.
Check the alignment of the batteries to ensure that they are installed properly. Make sure the positive (+)
and negative (-) marks on the batteries match the markings on the phone.
Check the charger. Is it properly connected? Is it fully inserted? Are its contacts clean and dry? The phone
should provide a beep-tone and the display should read "Charging Battery" within two minutes from the
transformer being installed.Check the charger is fully inserted and properly connected. See 'Your Battery'.
Your battery's "talk-time" and "standby-time" are relative measurements of the battery's capacity. The
more you talk on the phone, the less standby-time you have, and vice versa.
To get the most from your battery, allow it to charge fully. To charge the battery to 100% of its capacity,
leave it charging for an extra hour after the charger's light turns green.
Certain features demand power from your battery and reduce battery life. If you have selected the
Automatic Display of Individual Call Timer feature, the display uses battery power to remain active during
each call. Turn this feature off to conserve battery energy. (See "Displaying the Individual Timer
Automatically" on page 35 for more information on this feature.)
Make sure that you are using batteries that are compatible with your phone.
Exposing your battery to extreme temperatures—below -10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F)—can shorten
battery life. Batteries are especially sensitive to high temperature extremes. As a good rule, always take your
phone with you when you leave your car.
Enter the last three digits of your cellular number. If that doesn't work, use the factory preset lock code:
123. If all else fails, call your service provider (the company that sends you your monthly cellular bill) for
assistance. (See "Using Lock/Security Features" on page 39 for more information on Security Features.)
This sound means that the cellular system did not process your call. For example, the cellular system may be
overloaded with call attempts. To redial the number, press
¼
and try the call again later. (See "Redialing a Number" on page 20 for more information on redialing.)
