Radio

Your phone has an FM radio that also functions as an alarm clock radio. To listen
to the FM radio on your phone, connect a compatible music stand or stereo
headset to the connector on the bottom of the phone. The FM radio uses the wire
of the headset as an antenna. A compatible headset needs to be attached to the
device for the FM radio to function properly. The quality of a radio broadcast
depends on coverage of the radio station in that particular area.

Warning: Listen to music at a moderate level. Continuous exposure to high
volume may damage your hearing. Do not hold the device near your ear
when the loudspeaker is in use, because the volume may be extremely loud.
