Tips and techniques available for satellite phone use and testing are included, such as:

•Test your phone on a monthly basis.

• Keep your phone’s battery charged to ensure that it is ready for use when needed.

•For maximum battery performance, allow the battery to drain completely before fully recharging.

•Check to make sure that the phone’s SIM card is locked in place. Users can check this by removing the battery and ensuring that the SIM card tray is securely positioned.

•Use the phone outside with a clear view of the sky and the horizon.

•Turn the phone on and ensure that the antenna is extended and rotated upward.
