bars next to the signal strength icon. The more bars
displayed, the stronger the signal.
If you're inside a building, being near a window may give
you better reception.
Understanding the Power Save Feature
If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of
searching, a Power Save feature is automatically
activated. If your phone is active, it periodically rechecks
service availability or you can check it yourself by pressing
any key.
Anytime the Power Save feature is activated, a message
displays on the screen. When a signal is found, your phone
returns to standby mode.
Understanding How Your Phone Operates
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver.
When it's turned on, it receives and transmits radio
frequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the
system handling your call controls the power level. This
power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital
mode.
Maintaining Your Phone's Peak Performance
For the best care of your phone, only authorized personnel
should service your phone and accessories. Faulty service
may void the warranty.
There are several simple guidelines to operating your
phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.
•
Hold the phone with the antenna raised, fully-
extended and over your shoulder.
•
Try not to hold, bend or twist the phone's antenna.
•
Don't use the phone if the antenna is damaged.
•
Speak directly into the phone's receiver.
•
Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or
liquid spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately
turn the power off and remove the battery. If it is
inoperable, call Customer Care for service.
