7 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What do I have to pay for? You will begin to be charged for a phone call you initiated once someone (or your voicemail) has answered on the other end.

Under optimal conditions the batteries will last for 2.5 hours of calling. In standby mode you may count on an maximum operating time of 200 hours.
Did I select this function, or not? Your current setting is indicated by the checked box ( ). The new setting is indicated by a bar. Save the new setting with or keep the old setting with . My call didn’t go through: – Make sure you have the correct number and area code.
