Radio

Your phone has an FM radio that also functions as an

alarm clock radio. You can

listen to the FM radio on your phone through the hands-free speaker or with a
headset. For FM stereo, 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.

high volume may damage your hearing.
