Troubleshooting

If you have a problem with your phone that you cannot solve by following
these troubleshooting tips, contact your satellite or cellular service
provider. (You may have different service providers for Globalstar satellite
service and cellular service.)

Problem

Solution

Turning the phone on

Hold

for more than one second.

Check the battery installation.

Recharge or replace the battery.

Charging the battery

Install only QUALCOMM batteries.

Check that the battery contacts are
clean and dry.

Check the charger connection.

If the battery does not charge at first,
remove the charger plug from the
phone, wait ten seconds, and then
reinsert the plug.

Check the battery temperature. If it is
too warm, allow it to cool before
recharging it.

Replace the battery if it is several
years old.

Battery draining quickly

Check that your Globalstar satellite
antenna is pointing straight up and
has a clear view of the sky to conserve
battery life.

Set the backlight option to “off” (see
Backlight, page 42).

Replace the battery if it is several
years old.

Check the battery temperature. If
temperatures are too warm or too cold,
battery life is decreased.
