Achieving Best Performance
Charging your Battery
Both your Ericsson mobile phone and your laptop computer batter-
ies should be well-charged before starting data operation. This will
help you avoid interruptions due to loss of power.
You may charge your phone's battery with an Ericsson charger dur-
ing data/fax operation as mentioned above.
Signal Strength
It is important to maintain a good signal path between the phone
and the mobile telephone system when making data calls. Signals
will generally be stronger when the phone is in an upright position.
If you are indoors, your signal will generally be stronger when the
phone is near a window.
In a Vehicle
It is possible to receive data calls from your vehicle. Operation from a
moving vehicle may not be satisfactory because data may be lost
when your call is transferred from one mobile base station to
another. Be sure to give full attention to driving and pull off the road
and park before making or receiving calls, if driving conditions so
require.
Transmission Disturbances
Brief interruptions of mobile telephone signals that would not be
bothersome during a voice call may cause problems during data
operation, depending upon the error correction capabilities of the
software being used. Such interruptions are uncommon during sta-
tionary operation, but can be caused by vehicles or people passing
nearby, especially in areas of low signal strength. You can use the sig-
nal strength indicator on your phone to verify that you have a good
signal path.
