Getting a strong signal

For best results, fully extend the antenna. Your phone
operates on radio waves, and the quality of radio
reception depends on the strength of the radio signal in
your area. This radio coverage is maintained by a wireless
network and the quality of calls on a wireless phone
depends on the strength of the wireless radio signal.
Note: TIP ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: As with any other radio
transmitting device, do not touch the antenna
unnecessarily when the phone is switched on. Contact with
the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone
to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.
If your phone does not detect service at power up, the
message Searching for service will be displayed.
The phone will continue to search for available service for
15 minutes, at which time it will display No service if
none is found. The phone will periodically continue to
search for service.
