Display icons:

What they tell you

Display icons are all the graphic symbols that show up on your

display screen. In short, they tell you what’s happening with your

Sprint PCS Phone^TM. See below for a description.

Signal

Measures your current signal strength. The more

lines there are, the stronger the signal.

No Service This means the phone is outside a service area.

When this is displayed, you cannot use your phone.

In Use

Tells you a call is in progress.

Roaming

If the icon is not displayed, you are on the

digital Sprint PCS Nationwide Network.

If it is displayed, you are on another service

provider’s network.

Messages Indicates you have messages waiting.

Vibrate

Analog

Indicates the vibrate feature is set to ON.

Indicates the phone is roaming on an analog cellular

network.

Battery

Shows the level of your battery charge. The more

black you see, the more power you have left. When

the charge is low, this icon blinks and an alert tone

is sounded. You will lose what you are doing.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Using the battery

Your Sprint PCS Phone comes with a rechargeable Lithium Ion

battery. Remember to fully charge your battery as soon as the

charge becomes low in order to maximize your talk and standby

times.

Installing and removing the battery

The battery snaps easily onto the back of the phone (bottom end

first) for quick installation and removal. Make sure to turn the

power off before removing the battery. Otherwise, you could lose

stored numbers and messages.

Charging the battery

You can tell whether or not your battery needs to be recharged by

checking the upper-right corner of your display screen.

When the battery charge level gets low, the phone will beep and

the battery icon

will blink. A warning will also appear on

your screen prompting you to recharge your battery.

If the battery level gets too low, the phone will turn off

automatically. A series of alert tones will sound just before the

phone turns itself off. If this happens, unfortunately, you’ll lose

whatever you were just doing. So watch that indicator and make

sure your battery charge level is okay.

To charge your battery, you should use the standard AC adapter, or

the optional dual-slot desktop charger or cigarette lighter adapter.

Turning your phone on and off

When you’re ready to turn your Sprint PCS Phone on, check to see

service after 15 minutes of searching. While this feature is active,

the phone’s battery charge is conserved. The phone will automatically

check for a service periodically. To manually prompt the phone to

check for a service, press any key. A “Power Save” message on the

display will let you know when the phone is operating in Power Save

mode.

Where you can use your phone

Your Sprint PCS Phone is dual-band, which means you can use it

to make and receive calls in many places:

In any city where Sprint PCS provides service

On other CDMA networks and conventional analog cellular

networks where Sprint PCS has implemented roaming

agreements.

When you use your phone outside the digital Sprint PCS Nationwide

Network, it’s called roaming.

If you’re in an area where Sprint PCS has implemented roaming

with CDMA or conventional analog cellular providers, you will

pay the roaming rate plus long-distance charges, where they apply.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Note: In areas where Sprint PCS does not have a roaming

agreement in place, you will still be able to make (but not receive)

calls using a credit card. This is called manual roaming.

What you will see

You should always check your phone’s display because it will let

you know when you are outside the Sprint PCS Nationwide

Network and whether your phone is operating in analog cellular or

digital roaming mode.

The chart below indicates what you will see, depending on where

you’re using your phone.

(Roaming Indicator)

(Analog Indicator)

Sprint Network

Other CDMA Networks

(“Digital Roam” displays.)

(“Analog Roam” displays.)

Analog Cellular Networks

Regardless of whether you are using your phone on or off the

Sprint PCS Nationwide Network, you should always dial numbers

using 11 digits (1 + area code + number) when you make calls.

(This does not necessarily mean you’ll be charged a long-distance

rate.)

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Calling experience

When you use your phone on other CDMA networks, your calling

experience and call quality will be similar to what you experience

when making calls from within the digital Sprint PCS Nationwide

Network. Although certain calling features may not be available,

your phone calls are still private and secure.

When you use your phone on analog cellular networks, your

experience will be different. Analog cellular roaming will be

similar to the quality provided by conventional analog cellular

carriers today. Although you will still have the convenience of

being able to make and receive calls, here are some differences

you can expect:

You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out

and dropped calls.

Some calling features such as Caller ID and the message

waiting indicator that are standard within the

Sprint PCS Nationwide Network may be unavailable.

You will experience the same security and privacy risks

(eavesdropping and phone number cloning) that exist with

conventional analog cellular services today.

Battery life will be shorter when you use your phone for analog

cellular roaming than when you use it on a CDMA network.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

If you are on the phone when you leave a Sprint PCS Service Area

and enter an area where roaming is available (whether CDMA or

analog cellular), your call will be dropped. If your call is dropped

in an area where you think Sprint PCS provides service, turn your

phone off and then on again to acquire Sprint PCS Service.

If you need Sprint PCS Customer Service for any reason while

using your phone outside the Sprint PCS Network,

dial 1-888-211-4PCS (4727).

Sprint PCS periodically implements new roaming agreements.

To ensure your phone is able to roam everywhere Sprint PCS has

roaming agreements, stop by a Sprint PCS Center periodically for

a free roaming software upgrade. For a complete list of roaming

cities, visit our web site at www.sprintpcs.com.

Setting your phone’s mode

Three different settings on your phone allow you to control you’re

roaming experience. See page 46 for more details.

Call Guard

This feature reminds you when you are making or receiving a

roaming call so you can control your roaming experience.

See page 47 for more details.

User Options During a Call (In-call state/status)

During a call your phone provides you with access to all the menu

items you have in the Standby mode. You will also notice two

additional menu items or in-call options. The two in-call options

(Mute, and three-way call) appear on your screen immediately

after your call is connected. To select one of the two options

simply highlight the option you wish to select and press

(See page 30 for detailed instructions on using Three-Way

Calling.)

Usage guidelines:

All about performance

and safety

Keeping tabs on signal strength

The voice quality of your Sprint PCS Phone will always be at its

best when the antenna is fully raised. If you’re inside a building,

reception may be better near a window.

The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the signal

strength in your area. Your phone will inform you of the current

strength by displaying a number of bars next to the signal strength

icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger the signal. (See page 7

for an illustration of the signal strength indicators.)

Understanding Power Save mode

If you’re trying to use your phone in an area where the signal

cannot be found, the Power Save feature will automatically

activate to conserve battery power when you’ve been unable to

pick up a signal for 15 minutes. If your phone is on, it will

periodically recheck service availability, or you can do so yourself

manually by pressing any key. A message will be displayed on the

screen any time Power Save has been activated.

Understanding how your phone operates

Your Sprint PCS Phone is basically a radio transmitter and

receiver. When it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radio

frequency (RF) signals. Your phone operates in the frequency

range of 1.9 GHz and 800 MHz. When your phone is in use, the

system handling your call controls the power level.

Radio frequency safety

In 1991–1992, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers

(IEEE) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)

joined in updating ANSI’s 1982 standard for safety levels with

respect to human exposure to RF signals. More than 120 scientists,

engineers and physicians from universities, government health

agencies and industries developed this updated standard after

reviewing the available body of research. In 1993, the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC) adopted this updated

standard in a regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopted a hybrid

standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the

guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation

Protection and Measurements (NCRP).

The design of this Sprint PCS Phone complies with these updated

standards. Of course, if you want to limit RF exposure even further

than the updated standard, you can choose to control the duration

of your calls and operate your phone in the most power-efficient

manner.

Maintaining your phone’s peak performance

To operate your phone properly – that is, to maintain safe and

satisfactory service – you should follow these rules:

For best reception, fully extend the antenna.

Hold the phone with the antenna up and over your shoulder.

Do not hold the phone antenna at any time.

Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna.

Speak directly into the mouthpiece.

Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills.

If your phone does get wet, turn the power off immediately and

remove the battery. If it is inoperable, you should return it to a

Sprint PCS Center or call Sprint PCS Customer Care for service.

Only authorized personnel should service your phone and its

accessories. Faulty service may invalidate the warranty.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Protecting your battery

For best battery performance, you should follow these guidelines:

Use only SANYO-approved batteries and AC adapter, cigarette

lighter adapter, and desktop charger.

These chargers are designed to maximize battery life. Using

other batteries or chargers will invalidate your warranty and

may cause damage as well.

To avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that

range from 32˚F to 104˚F (0˚C to 40˚C).

Do not use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high

humidity areas, such as the bathroom.

Never dispose of the battery by incineration.

Keep the metal contacts at the bottom of the battery clean.

Do not attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.

You may need to recharge the battery if it has not been used for

a long period of time.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable

performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it

will need to be replaced.

Do not store the battery in high temperature areas for long

periods of time. Follow these storage rules:

Less than one month: -4˚F to 131˚F (-20˚C to 55˚C)

More than one month: -4˚F to 95˚F (-20˚C to 35˚C)

Driving

Using a wireless phone while driving is illegal in some states and

countries. For your safety, become familiar with the laws and

regulations for your area, and pull off the road and park if you

need to make a call.

If you must use the phone while driving, purchase

and have installed the optional hands-free car kit

or the headset.

Disposal of Lithium Ion batteries

This product contains a Lithium Ion battery. Please ensure that

disposal of this battery is in accordance with applicable laws and

regulations.

Do not dispose of the battery in a fire; the cell may explode.

Do not open or puncture the battery; the released electrolyte is

corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes and skin.

This substance also can be toxic if swallowed.

Following safety guidelines

To operate your phone safely and efficiently, you should always

follow any special regulations in a given area, and turn your phone

off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause

interference or danger.

Using your phone near other electronic devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio

frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from PCS telephones

may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately

shielded electronic operating and entertainment systems in motor

vehicles. Check with the manufacturer to determine if these

systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals.

You should also check with the manufacturer regarding any

equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as

pacemakers and hearing aids) to determine if they are adequately

shielded from external RF signals.

Turn off the phone in healthcare facilities and request permission

before using the phone near medical equipment.

Turn off your phone before flying

You should turn off your Sprint PCS Phone before boarding any

aircraft. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems,

U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require

you to have permission from a crew member to use your phone

while the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of

interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the

plane is in the air.

Restricting children’s access to your phone

Your phone is not a toy, and should not be played with by children.

They could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or make

calls that increase your telephone bills.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Turn off your phone in dangerous areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, you should turn off

your phone when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs

indicating that two-way radios should be turned off. Construction

crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.

Turn off your phone when you are in any area with a potentially

explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your phone or its accessories

could generate sparks. Sparks could cause an explosion or a fire

resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not

always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gas

stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage

facilities; areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such

as grain, dust or metal powders; and any other area where you

would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the

compartment of any vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.

Cautions

Any changes or modifications to your Sprint PCS Phone not

expressly approved in this document could void your warranty for

this equipment and void your authority to operate this equipment.

Use only SANYO approved batteries, antennas and chargers.

The use of any other type of accessory may invalidate the warranty.
