Antenna
Keys and parts
Your device may have internal and external
antennas. As with any radio transmitting
device, avoid touching the antenna area
unnecessarily while the antenna is
transmitting or receiving. Contact with
such an antenna affects the
communication quality and may cause the
device to operate at a higher power level
than otherwise needed and may reduce
the battery life.
The figure shows the antenna area marked
in grey.
