Signal Strength

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

The vertical bar on the left of your phone's display shows the strength of
the cellular signal your phone is receiving.  The higher the bar, the
stronger the signal.

If the signal strength is low, try moving to a different location.  If you
are using the phone in a building, try moving closer to a window.


If NO SERVICE appears, your phone is outside the cellular service area.
This means you cannot make or receive calls until you move the phone back
into the cellular service area.

RECEIVING A CALL

When your phone receives an incoming call, it rings (or vibrates if a
vibrating battery is installed and vibrate is selected) and flashes CALL.
To answer a call, press any key except [PWR] or [END].  To stop the phone
from ringing without answering the call immediately, press [END] then
press [SEND] when you are ready to answer the call.

Notes: After the first ring, if you subscribe to calling line ID service
       through your cellular carrier (see "Calling Line ID" in Faxback
       Doc. # 47394), the phone automatically displays the calling party's
       phone number or, if it is programmed into your phone, the calling
       party's name (see "Storing a Number and Name in Memory" in Faxback
       Doc. # 47396).

       If you selected silent service (see "Ringing Options" in Faxback
       Doc. # 47395), the phone does not ring.  Instead, the keypad and
       display backlights flash, CALL flashes on the display (or caller
       information appears), and the phone beeps once.

       If keyguard is set to ON (see "Turning Keyguard On/Off" in Faxback
       Doc. # 47393), you can answer a call only by pressing [SEND].

To end the call, press [END]. To clear calling line ID information (if any
from the display, press [CLR].

is the number of calls) and stores the caller's number (if available) in
the missed calls list.  To review the missed calls list, press [OK] then
press [/\] or [\/] to scroll through the numbers.  Or, press any other key
(except [PWR] to clear the display.  See "Using the Call Log" below.

       Number Quick Store" in Faxback Doc. # 47396).

ADJUSTING THE VOLUME

To increase or decrease the earpiece volume during a call, press [/\] (to
increase) or [\/] (to decrease).

Your phone displays VOLUME and a horizontal bar indicating the volume
level.  The more filled bar segments, the higher the volume.

MAKING EMERGENCY CALLS

The primarily local emergency number (such as 911) is programmed into your
phone at the time of activation.  To prevent unwanted emergency calls,
however, your phone's one-touch emergency dialing feature is preset to OFF
To set it to ON, see "Turning One-Touch Emergency Dialing On/Off" in
Faxback Doc. # 47393.

To quickly dial the emergency number (if one-touch emergency dialing is
set to ON), hold down [9 WXYZ] until the phone displays ATTEMPTING
EMERGENCY CALL.

Notes:  The emergency number programmed into your phone might not be valid
        in all areas.  (For example, not all areas have 911 service.)  If
        you use the phone outside its primary service area, you might have
        to manually dial an emergency number if it is different from the
        one programmed into your phone.

        One-touch emergency dialing does not operate if keyguard is turned
        on (see "Turning Keyguard On/Off" in Faxback Doc. # 47393) or if
        one-touch emergency dialing is turned off.

IMPORTANT:  When you make an emergency call, give your name and cellular
            phone number, as well as the location of the incident.
            Remember that your phone might be the only means of
            communication at the accident scene. Do not end the call until
            you are advised you may do so.
