Antenna
Phone performance depends on the strength of the signal it receives. As you
fully extend and rotate the antenna, the signal strength indicator shows the
strength of the signal received in that particular antenna position. You
cannot make a satellite call with the antenna stored. Using the Ring While
Stowed feature, your phone will ring to alert you to an incoming call.
However, you cannot answer that call until you rotate and extend the
antenna.
It is important to use the antenna properly for the best performance. Follow
these guidelines for the antenna:
■ Never hold the phone by the antenna.
■ Do not use the phone if the antenna is damaged, unless the phone is
being used with the Globalstar Installation Kit.
For more information on how to use the antennas, see Preparing to make
calls, page 2.
