Make and answer calls
Tip: Your phone has a
built-in antenna. As
with any other radio
transmitting device, do
not touch the antenna
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.
An indicator on the left of the Start screen displays the radio signal strength.
More segments mean a stronger signal. To improve reception, move your
phone slightly; if you’re indoors, move toward a window.
Your phone is optimized for digital service in a compact size.
Keep calls private
The Voice Privacy feature encrypts the voice channel so that no one can
eavesdrop on your phone conversations. Voice Privacy is a feature that must
be supported by your service provider. Contact your service provider for
more information on this feature.
By default, the voice privacy setting on your phone is set to Off. To turn
it on:
1
Press Menu 4 - 4 -1 (Settings > Network services > Voice privacy).
2
Scroll to On, then press OK.
During a call, Voice Privacy notifies you that it is active with a beep and
the message Voice privacy active on the screen. During a call, your phone
sounds two short beeps and displays the message Voice privacy not active
if voice privacy is lost.
