Antenna
The antenna is a device for transmitting and receiving signals. The shape and

Getting Started
Getting service
You must contact your service provider and follow their instructions for
obtaining service for your phone. We suggest that you read this user guide to
fully understand the services that your phone supports.

clearest reception. Press . Continue to hold this key down for more than
one second to power the phone on:
Note: Your phone has a built-in antenna. As with any other radio-transmitting
device, do not touch the antenna as it affects call quality and can cause the
phone to operate at a higher power level than is necessary.
The LED indicator momentarily lights, and a power-up alert sounds. The phone
begins searching for a network signal. When a signal is found, the date, day,
and time appears. Your phone is now ready to place and receive calls.
If the phone is outside of your carriers coverage or roaming area the icon

when service becomes available. For further information see “The top line of
the display screen” on page 32
