Troubleshooting

 

If you encounter problems while using the phone, or if it performs 
abnormally, you can refer to the chart below. If your particular 
problem cannot be resolved using the information in the chart, 
contact the dealer where you purchased the phone. 

Problem 

Possible causes 

Possible solution 

Poor 
reception 

The network signal is too 
weak at your current 
location, for example, in a 
basement or near a tall 
building, because wireless 
transmissions cannot 
effectively reach it. 

Move to a location where 
the network signal can be 
properly received. 

 

The network is busy at the 
current time (for example, 
during peak times, there 
may be too much network 
traffic to handle additional 
calls). 

Avoid using the phone at 
such times, or try again 
after waiting a short time.

 

139 

 

You are too far away from 
a base station for your 
service provider. 

You can request a service 
area map from your 
service provider. 

Echo or noise  Poor network trunk quality 

on the part of your service 
provider. 

End the call and dial 
again. You may be 
switched to a 
better-quality network 
trunk or phone line. 

 

Poor local telephone line 
quality. 

End the call and dial 
again. You may be 
switched to a 
better-quality network 
trunk or phone line. 

Unable to 
select certain 
features 

Your service provider does 
not support these features, 
or you have not applied for 
services that provide these 
features. 

Contact your service 
provider. 

Battery not 
charged 

The battery or battery 
charger is damaged. 

Contact the dealer. 

 

140 

 

The phone’s temperature is 
below 0°C or higher than 
45 °C. 

Adjust the battery 
charging environment to 
avoid extremes of 
temperature. 

 

Poor contact between the 
battery and charger. 

Check all connectors to 
make sure all connections 
have been properly made.

Shortened 
standby time

The standby time is related 
to your service provider 
system configuration. The 
same phone used with 
different service providers’ 
systems will not provide 
exactly the same length of 
standby time. 

If you are located in an 
area where signaling is 
weak, temporarily power 
off the phone. 

 

The battery is depleted. In 
high-temperature 
environments, battery life 
will be shortened. 

Use a new battery.
