Are you in coverage?
Is Orange and the signal strength
symbol showing on the display? If you're

car, get out and try the call again.
Did you press the
key?
You must press this after keying in the

problem. Try moving to another location
or waiting, then retry.
Did you hear rapid beeps?

again later.

battery
How long should I charge my battery
the first time?
For 16 continuous hours. Ignore the
battery full indicator on the display and
continue the charge. The phone can be
on or off whilst charging. If your phone
has been registered you can make calls
whilst it is charging.
Why don't I get as much battery life as
I should?
The talk time for the slim battery is two
hours and for the large battery it is three
hours. The standby time for the slim
battery is 40 hours and for the large
battery it is 25 hours. The phone uses
battery power whenever it is switched
on, even when on standby (switched on
but not in call). The charge will run down
when your phone is on. It will run down
faster during a call or if you are using any
of the functions, such as the games.
