WARNING!
Do not switch on the phone when mobile phone
use is prohibited or when it may cause
interference or danger.
Note:
As with any other radio-transmitting device,
do not touch the antenna on the phone
unnecessarily when the phone is switched
on. Contact with the antenna affects the call
quality and may cause the phone to operate
at a higher power level than otherwise
needed.
Your Phone’s Mode
Standby Mode
The standby is the most basic state of your phone.
The phone goes into the standby mode after you turn
it on or whenever you briefly press . When your
phone is in the standby mode, you will typically see
the current date and time. If you enter a phone
number, you can press to dial it, or press to
save it in the internal phonebook.
Press
at any time to return to the standby
mode. Be careful; if you are on a call when you press
, you will disconnect the call and return to the
standby mode. Press
several times or hold it
down to return to the standby mode without ending
the call.
Talk Mode
You can place and answer calls only when your
phone is turned on. During a call, the phone is in the
talk mode. In this mode, pressing gives you a list
of options. See page 35 for details on the options.
Power Save Mode
Your phone comes with a Power Save feature that
will be automatically activated if your phone is
unable to find a signal after 10 minutes of searching.
In this mode, the phone’s battery charge is
conserved. The phone will automatically recheck for
a signal periodically.
To manually force the phone to recheck for a signal,
press any key. A message on the display lets you
know when your phone is operating in the power
save mode.
Lock Mode
When you lock your phone using the
Lock Phone
menu option (
MENU 7-5
) in the
Setup
menu, you
cannot use the phone. In the lock mode, you can
receive messages and calls, but you cannot place an
outgoing call until you unlock the phone. To unlock
the phone temporarily, enter the password.
For details about locking and unlocking your phone,
see page 103.
