The phone does
not turn On. Recharge or replace the battery.
The phone is not
ringing when a
call is received.
Check for Ringer Off ( ) or Silent Mode ( )
icons on the Standby screen.
The battery does
not seem to
charge to full
capacity. Your battery is fully charged when the power
indicator shows the power icon (
) continu-
ously. If you still experience problems, condition
your battery by fully discharging and charging it
three times. Or, if your phone came with a desk-
top charger, use the conditioning function on
the desktop charger to condition the battery.
Calls are being
dropped. You are probably in a geographic area with mini-
mal service. Wait until the signal strength indica-
tor in your phone's display shows a high relative
signal strength (more bars) before trying a call.
Make note of geographic locations where calls
are dropped and contact your service provider.
The signal
strength varies. This is a common occurrence. Transmitters are
set in geographic areas and coverage is not 100%
all of the time. Signal strength varies as you
travel between cells.
The signal is too weak to make a call. Try again
when the signal strength is one bar or stronger.
The battery power is low. When the phone shuts
itself off, replace the battery with a fully charged
one, or use an alternate power source, such as a
travel charger.
Your text message memory is full. Erase some
stored messages before you can receive more mes-
sages.
