Turning Off the Power
Hold down until the phone displays POWERING OFF .
NOTE For improved improved perfomance, the phone’s antenna extends
at a slight backward angle. Do not attempt to straighten the
antenna by bending it.
To retract the antenna Push the antenna down until it
is fully retracted.
To check the
signal strength The signal strength icon indicates various levels of signal
strength. It is best to make calls when the signal is strong,
although calls can be made when the signal strength is weak.
If you are out
of the service area The out-of-service ( ) icon appears and the phone searches
for a service signal. If a signal cannot be found, the phone will
not be able to make or receive a call. If it cannot find a signal
after some time, the phone enters a power saving mode. It will
