The Ready Screen

When you see the term "Ready Screen" in this manual, it means the phone's 
display is free of phone numbers, names, and menu items.  Many of the

  Give END a (short) press, or CLR a long press.  (Don't press END to
  return to idle when in a call because this will end the call.)

Status indicators such as KEYGUARD ACTIVE, ROAMING, or the name of the 
profile you're using may appear on the Ready Screen and can't be cleared.

    number, then press OK.

2.  At the Save Name: prompt, enter the name then press OK twice.

Note:  It's better to use short names (i.e., no more than 10 characters).
       Entries with short names and numbers fit on a single screen in the

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" in Faxback Doc. # 52772.
