2. Set up your phone
■ The antenna
Your phone has an internal antenna located towards the top of the phone. Hold the 
phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna area pointed up and 
over your shoulder.
Note: As with any other radio transmitting 
phone, 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. Avoid contact with the 
antenna area when operating the phone to 
optimize antenna performance and battery life. 
■ The battery

removing the battery.
Before removing the cover, always switch off the power and disconnect the charger 
and any other phone. Avoid touching electronic components while changing the 
covers. Always store and use the phone with the covers attached.
