Security module
The security module activates your phone when in Globalstar satellite
mode. It is located on the lower left side of the front of the phone. The
security module that comes with your phone works only with that phone
and is not interchangeable.
Caution
Do not remove the security module.
When in Globalstar satellite mode, the security module must be properly
installed to make or receive calls. If it is not properly installed, you can only
make calls to emergency numbers.
Note
If you use the same phone number (or NAM) for both Globalstar
satellite and cellular calls, the security module may also have to
be installed for non-emergency cellular calls.
For more information, contact your satellite service provider, who installs
and maintains the security module.
Antenna basics
Phone performance depends on the strength of the signal it receives. As you
fully extend the cellular antenna or rotate the Globalstar satellite antenna,
the signal strength indicator shows the strength of the signal received in
that particular antenna position. You cannot make or receive a satellite call
with the Globalstar satellite antenna stored.
It is important to use the antennas properly for the best performance.
Follow these guidelines for the Globalstar satellite and cellular antennas:
■ Never hold the phone by the antenna.
■ Do not use the phone if either antenna is damaged, unless you are
using the phone with the car kit’s antenna.
For more information on how to use the antennas, see Preparing for
satellite calls, page 2, and Making cellular calls, page 4.
Information key
The Info (Information) key has several different functions:
■ Provides help if displays on the screen.
■ When the phone registers and displays on the screen, press for
service provider information and the current phone number.
■ Displays your current phone number while on a call.
■ Insert pauses and hyphens when entering a phone number.
