manual to fully understand the services your phone supports.
Turning Your Phone On

Note: As with any other radio-transmitting device, do not touch the antenna
while using your phone as this can affect call quality and can cause the
phone to operate at a higher power level than is necessary.

• Once the phone finds a signal, the time, date, and day appear in the
bottom of the display.
• You’re now ready to place and receive calls.
Note: If you are outside of your carrier’s coverage or roaming area, the No
Service icon ( ) appears at the top of the phone’s display. If you
cannot place or receive calls, try later when service is available, or at
another location.
Turn Your Phone Off
ᮣ Press and hold for two or more seconds. Your phone
powers off.
Note: If your phone is on and you press for less than one second, the

off accidentally.

retrieved any time.
