TTY Use With Sprint Service

Airplane Mode allows you to use many of your device’s

features, such as Gallery, Camera, and Music, when

you are on an airplane or in any other area where

making or receiving calls or data is prohibited. When

you set your device to Airplane Mode, it cannot send or

receive any calls or access online information.

A TTY (teletypewriter, also known as a TDD or Text

Telephone) is a telecommunications device that allows

people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or who have

speech or language disabilities, to communicate by

telephone.

Your device is compatible with select TTY devices.

Please check with the manufacturer of your TTY device

to ensure that it supports digital wireless transmission.

Your device and TTY device will connect using a

special cable that plugs into your device’s headset

jack. If this cable was not provided with your TTY

device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to

purchase the connector cable.

WARNING: 911 Emergency Calling

Sprint recommends that TTY users make

emergency calls by other means, including

Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS),

analog cellular, and landline communications.

Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted

when received by public safety answering points

(PSAPs), rendering some communications

unintelligible. The problem encountered appears

related to TTY equipment or software used by

PSAPs. This matter has been brought to the

attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry

and the PSAP community are currently working

to resolve this.

When establishing your Sprint service, please call

Sprint Customer Service using the state

Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first

dialing

. Then provide the

state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.

To turn TTY Mode on or off:

1. Press

and tap Settings > Call > TTY mode.

2. Tap TTY Full, TTY HCO, or TTY VCO to turn TTY

mode on.

– or –

Tap TTY Off to turn TTY mode off.

Note: When enabled, TTY mode may impair the audio

quality of non-TTY devices connected to the headset

jack.

access over greater distances than Wi-Fi and delivers

data transfer rates of up to 30 Mbps. To connect your

device to Sprint 4G network, you need access to a

Sprint 4G base station.

When your device is connected to a wireless network,

the Wi-Fi icon ( ) appears in the status bar and tells

you the approximate signal strength (number of bands

displayed).

For more information about the availability of Sprint 4G

in your location, visit www.sprint.com/coverage on the

Web.

If Network notification in Wi-Fi settings is enabled, this

icon ( ) appears in the status bar whenever the

device detects an available wireless network within

range.

Note: The availability and range of the Sprint 4G depends on

a number of factors including your distance to the

objects through which the signal passes.

Note: The next time your device connects to a previously

accessed secured wireless network, you will not be

prompted to enter the WEP key again, unless you reset

your device to its factory default settings.

Wi-Fi networks are self-discoverable, which means no

additional steps are required for your device to connect

to a Wi-Fi network. It may be necessary to provide a

http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro/hearing.html

acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is considered

for better use. A sum of 8 is considered for best use. In

the above example, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level

rating and the wireless phone meets the M3 level

rating, the sum of the two values equal M5. This should

provide the hearing aid user with “normal usage” while

using their hearing aid with the particular wireless

phone. “Normal usage” in this context is defined as a

signal quality that is acceptable for normal operation.

averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard

incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give

additional protection for the public and to account for

any variations in usage. Normal condition only to

ensure the radiative performance and safety of the

interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting

equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory

operation of the equipment and for the safety of

personnel, it is recommended that no part of the

human body be allowed to come too close to the

antenna during operation of the equipment.

Use only the supplied or an approved antenna.

Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments

could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result

in violation of regulations. Do not use the phone with a

damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into

contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please

contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.

Association (TIA) Safety Information

Pacemakers

Body-worn Operation

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association

recommends that a minimum separation of six inches

be maintained between a handheld wireless phone

and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with

the pacemaker. These recommendations are

consistent with the independent research by and

recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

This device was tested for typical body-worn

operations. To comply with RF exposure requirements,

a minimum separation distance of 1 cm must be

maintained between the user’s body and the handset,

including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters,

and similar accessories used by this device should not

contain any metallic components. Body-worn

accessories that do not meet these requirements may

not comply with RF exposure requirements and should

be avoided.

ⅷ Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six

inches from their pacemaker when the phone is

turned ON.

142

ⅷ Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.

WEEE Notice

ⅷ Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to

minimize the potential for interference. If you have

any reason to suspect that interference is taking

place, turn the phone OFF immediately.

The Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic

Equipment (WEEE), which entered into force as

European law on 13th February 2003, resulted in a

major change in the treatment of electrical equipment

at end-of-life.

Hearing Aids

The purpose of this Directive is, as a first priority, the

prevention of WEEE, and in addition, to promote the

reuse, recycling and other forms of recovery of such

wastes so as to reduce disposal.

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some

hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may

want to consult your service provider, or call the

customer service line to discuss alternatives.

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult

the manufacturer of your device to determine if they are

adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your

physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this

information.

Turn the phone OFF in health care facilities when any

regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.

Hospitals or health care facilities may be using

equipment that could be sensitive to external RF

energy.
