(170-1223/4/5/9/30/31)     Troubleshooting            Faxback Doc. # 47268

Note:  The procedures in these documents apply to the following Nokia 252
       Series Cellular Telephones (6 total):

         170-1223/29 - Woodgrain Finish
         170-1224/30 - Gun Metal Finish
         170-1225/31 - Black Finish (Sold in California ONLY!)

The only differences between the six phones are those noted above.

Note:  With a new, completely discharged battery, the phone may take up to
       45 minutes to show that charging is in progress.

If the power does not come on or stay on:

   Make sure the battery is properly installed and charged.

   Be sure that the contacts on the battery and the charging stand are
   clean.

   Battery charge may be too low for operation.  Check the display and
   listen for the low battery warning tones.

If the power comes on, but the phone does not work:

   If the phone displays NO SERVICE, you're out of the cellular service
   area and you can't make calls.  You also get this message if you've
   chosen Home Only under Carrier Selection (in Menu 5 2), and you've left
   your Home system.

   Make sure that the antenna is properly installed and if your phone has
   an extendible antenna, make sure that the antenna is extended to its
   full length.

   Check if there is an error message on the display after switching the
   phone on.  If so, contact your local dealer.
