• ANTENNAS
Your phone has three antennas:
• Internal antenna is always active.
• Whip antenna is active when fully extended.
The GPS antenna is also internal and is activated
when placing emergency calls or when is selected
from the
Location info sharing
feature. For more
information on
Location info sharing
, see “GPS (Location info sharing)” on page 58.
Do not touch either 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.
While in a call, hold the phone to your ear, placing your finger tips
on the Nokia badge at the mid-center of the back cover (located
below the antenna area on the back of your phone).
