Nokia 282 owner manual Signal strength indication, It is switched on

Signal strength indication

A cellular phone sends and receives radio signals. As with all radio equipment, the quality of radio reception depends on the strength of the radio signal in the area where you are operating your phone.

The strength of the cellular signal is shown by the vertical bar on the left- hand side of the display. The higher the bar, the stronger the signal at your present location, and the more likely you are to get good call quality.

When NO SERVICE is displayed, the phone is either outside of the cellular service area or restricted from entering service, and calls cannot be made or received.

If the signal is poor and you are using the phone in a building, you may get better reception near a window.

IMPORTANT! The phone can make and receive calls only when:

•It is switched on, and

•It is located in the cellular service area, and the radio signal strength is adequate.

To make an emergency call, see "Emergency Calls" on page 75.
