Getting Started with Your Phone
Battery Temperature
Protection
Though extremely rare, if the
battery becomes overheated, the
phone will automatically turn off.
When you turn the phone back on,
a message pops up alerting you
that the phone was powered off for
your safety.
Battery Charge Level
You can find the battery charge level
at the top right corner of the LCD
screen. When the charge level
becomes low, the battery sensor
sounds a warning tone, blinks the
battery icon, and displays a warning
message. As the charge level
approaches empty, the phone
automatically switches off without
saving any current tasks.
Signal Strength
Call quality depends on the signal
strength in your area. You can tell
how much signal strength you have
by the number of bars next to the
signal strength icon: the more bars,
the stronger the signal. If you’re
having problems with signal quality,
move to an open area or, when
inside a building, try moving near a
window.
