When you have installed the SIM card, charged the battery, attached the
antenna, and completed the initial setup as explained in “Initial Phone Set-
tings” on page 12, you are ready to use your phone. A network search begins
as soon as you turn on your phone. When a network is found, the phone beeps
three times.
The indicator light on top of the phone flashes green once every second and
your network operator’s name (in most cases abbreviated) is shown in the dis-
play. If the charger is connected, the indicator displays a steady green light
instead of a flashing green light.
(If this is the first time you have used your phone, see “Set Satellite Search
Preferences” on page 15, and “Set GSM Search Preferences” on page 16.)
Position the Antenna
You will need to position the antenna in order to receive a full satellite signal.
Grasp the antenna and flip it upward until it clicks into one of the three
upward positions shown in the figure below.
Important!
You may be able to receive a network signal without raising the
antenna. However, the antenna should be in one of the three upward positions
shown above for your phone to work most efficiently.
For more information on positioning the antenna properly see “Point
Antenna” on page 17, and “Satellite Indicators” on page 19.
Point Antenna
If you activated the Antenna Pointing feature, you can use it to assist you in
locating a full-strength satellite signal. See “Set Satellite Antenna Pointing” on
page 14.
