Basic Operation

About the Antenna

There are two parts to the handset antenna, one internal and one retractable. This allows your phone to detect incoming calls without having the antenna extended. For optimum performance, fully extend the antenna when in a call or when placing a call.

Turning Phone On and Off

1.Press PWR to turn your phone on.

2.Press PWR again to turn your phone off.

Start-up Self Tests

Each time the phone is turned on, it performs a series of self tests, sounds a tone, and lights all display positions and status indicators to check their operation. The Signal Strength and Battery Meters then display and the keypad lights momentarily, as it will any time a key is pressed.
