3. The Basics

You have purchased a powerful phone, with lots of features. Read this section for some very basic information on how to use your phone.

A more comprehensive description of your phone is covered in “Features A to Z” starting on page 16.

Switching the phone on and off

Press and hold the key for two seconds to switch the phone on or off.

Switching off with the key

Quickly press the key (Switch off! will appear, highlighted) then press OK.

Note: This method is available in all profiles except Headset and

Car.

NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.

TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: As with any other radio transmitting device, do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is switched on. Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.

WARNING! Do not switch on the phone when wireless phone use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.

See “Safety At A Glance” on page 1 for more information.

Get a good signal

Your phone operates on radio waves, and the quality of radio reception depends entirely on the strength of the radio signal in your area.

This radio coverage is maintained by a wireless network and the quality of calls on a wireless phone depends on the strength of the wireless radio signal.
