Product Performance

Getting the Most Out of Your Signal Reception

The quality of each call you make or receive depends on 
the signal strength in your area. Your phone informs 
you of the current signal strength by displaying a 
number of 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.

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.
