Checking signal strength

Your phone operates on radio waves, and the quality
of radio reception depends entirely on the strength of
the radio signal in your area.

This radio coverage is maintained by a wireless net-
work and the quality of calls on a wireless phone
depends on the strength of the wireless radio signal.

Get a strong signal

When you are at the start screen (see page
14)
or in a call, the strength of the radio signal
is indicated by the signal indicators on the left
side of your phone’s display. These indicators
scroll as the strength of the signal increases
and decreases.

Improving your phone’s reception may be easy.
Try moving your phone slightly, or move towards a win-
dow if you’re calling from inside a building.
