What is standby mode?

Your phone is in standby mode when it is idle. When the handset is off the charging cradle, the standby screen displays the date and time. When the handset is on the charging cradle, the standby screen displays the time as a screen saver.

Check the signal strength

The number of bars indicates the link status between the handset and base station.The more bars are shown, the better the connection is.

•Make sure the handset is linked to the base station before you make or receive calls and carry out the functions and features.

•If you hear warning tones when you are on the phone, the handset is almost out of battery or the handset is out of range. Charge the battery or move the handset close to the base station.
