• ABOUT THE ANTENNAS
Your phone is equipped with two
antennas. The internal antenna is active
when the whip antenna is fully
retracted. Extending the whip antenna
disables the internal antenna
As with any other radio transmitting
device, do not touch either of the two antennas unnecessarily when the
phone is switched on. Contact with the antenna affects call quality and
may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise
needed. Not touching the antenna area during a phone call optimizes the
antenna performance and the talk time of your phone.
Hold the phone to your ear, placing your finger tips on the ridge of the
battery cover (located below the antenna area on the back of your phone).
