2. Set up your phone

Antenna

Your device has two antennas—the fixed antenna is active unless
the extendable antenna is fully extended.

In the Nokia 3155i phone, the GPS antenna is also internal and is
activated when placing emergency calls or when

On

is selected

from the

Location info sharing

menu (a carrier-dependent

feature). See "Location info sharing," p. 54.

Your device has a fixed and extendable antenna located
towards the top of the phone with the fold closed. Hold
the phone with the antenna area pointed up and over
your shoulder.

Note: Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily with
the device switched on. Contact with the antenna
affects call quality and may cause the device to
operate at a higher power level than otherwise
needed. Not touching the antenna area during a
phone call optimizes the antenna performance and
battery life.
