Turn your phone on
1. Open the flip.
2. Press and hold
for two or more seconds.
Your phone has a built-in antenna. As with any other radio-
transmitting device, do not touch the antenna as it affects
call quality and can cause the phone to operate at a higher
power level than is necessary.
3. The phone powers up and Verizon Wireless momentarily
appears in the display. Your phone begins searching for
a network signal.
4. Once a signal is found, the time, date, and day appear in
the bottom of the display.
5. You’re now ready to place and receive calls.
If the phone is outside of your carrier’s coverage or roaming
area, appears in the top line of the display. This
indicates you cannot place or receive calls. Try later when
service is available.
Turn your phone off
• Press and hold
for two or more seconds. Your
phone powers down.
