Phone Basics

Once your phone is on, it may display “
Searching for Service
.” When your phone finds a
signal, it enters standby mode—the phone’s idle state. At this point, you are ready to begin
making and receiving calls.
If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching, a Power Save feature is
automatically activated. When a signal is found, your phone automatically returns to standby
mode.
Tip
:
The Power Save feature conserves your battery power when you are in an area where
there is no signal.
