The Handset Antenna
The MDW 9040 Pocket Phone comes with a user-replaceable, flexible, retractable antenna. For maximum range
and voice quality, always fully extend the antenna before placing or answering a call. You can receive a call (if
you are within range of the radio module) without extending the antenna, but the Range
icon may light
indicating that you are out-of-range or there is poor signal strength. The antenna must be fully extended for
optimal performance.
Replacing the Antenna If the antenna on your MDW 9040 Pocket Phone handset becomes damaged, you can
order a replacement antenna (see
Appendix D , “ Ordering Replacement and Optional
Parts ”), and replace it yourself.
To replace the antenna:
1 Fully retract the antenna.
2 Grasping the base of the antenna, unscrew it by turning it counterclockwise.
3 Grasping the base of the new antenna, screw it into the handset in a clockwise
direction.
