Troubleshooting - 175
I tried to place a 
call and heard 
an alternating 
high/low tone. 
Your call did not reach the wireless 
system. You may have dialled the 
number too soon after turning the 
phone on. Wait until the display 
shows the name of your service 
provider before making a call.
I cannot send/
receive calls. 
Make sure that you have a phone 
signal (see the “Signal Strength 
Indicator” item on page 30). Avoid 
electrical or radio interference, and 
obstructions such as bridges, parking 
garages, or tall buildings.
Your phone also may have the 
 !"
 feature turned on. If you 
know the unlock code, you can 
change this setting in the security 
menu (
M
 >
!"
 >
#! 
).
Also, check to be sure your SIM card 
is installed and working.
My phone has 
poor reception 
and drops calls. 
Make sure that your antenna is not 
bent or damaged.
Also, make sure you have a phone 
signal (see the “Signal Strength 
Indicator” item on page 30). Stay 
clear of any obstructions such as 
bridges, car parks, or tall buildings.
I cannot hear 
others on my 
phone. 
While on a call, press the upper 
volume key. Your phone display 
should show the volume increasing.
Also, make sure that your phone’s 
earpiece is not blocked by its carrying 
case.
