Turning Your Phone On and Off
Turning Your Phone ON
1) Fully extend the antenna to receive the best reception.
2) Press for two seconds. The phone will display
“Searching for Service” until it locates a signal, then it will
automatically enter Standby mode – the phone’s idle
state. At this point, you’re ready to begin making and
receiving calls.
Turning Your Phone OFF
Press for two seconds until the screen displays its
powering off message (for example, “LG Goodbye!”).
Signal Strength
Call quality is always best when the antenna is fully
raised. If you’re inside a building, being near a window
may give you better reception. You can see the strength
of your signal by the signal indicator ( ) on your
phone’s display screen.
Power Save Mode
When the phone is in an area without service for about
15 minutes, it stops searching for service and enters into
the Power Save Mode. When your phone activates this
feature, Power Save is displayed on your screen. The
phone automatically checks for service periodically or
you can check manually by pressing any key.
