Section 2D: ControllingYour Roaming Experience
UnderstandingRoaming
RecognizingtheRoamingIconontheDisplayScreen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re
off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Anytime you are
roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon (
). If you are
roaming on a digital system, the roaming icon will be
displayed along with the text –DigitalRoam– . If you are
roaming on an analog system, the roaming icon will be
displayed along with the text –AnalogRoam– .
Tip: Remember, when you are using your phone off the Nationwide
Sprint PCS Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code +
number).
Note: UnlessyourSprint PCSServicePlanincludesroaming, youwillpaya
higherper-minuterateforroamingcalls.
RoamingonOtherDigitalNetworks
When you’re roaming on other digital networks, your call
quality and security will be similar to the quality you receive
when making calls on the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.
However, you may not be able to access certain features,
such as Sprint PCSVision.

RoamingonAnalogNetworks
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a
quality similar to that provided by other analog carriers today.
Although some features, such as Sprint PCSVision and
Sprint PCSVoice Command, will be unavailable, you can
still make and receive calls and access voicemail. If you are
accustomed to Sprint PCS Service, you may notice some of
the following differences when using analog service:
ⅷ
You are more likely to experience static, crosstalk,
fade-out, and dropped calls.
ⅷ
Some features which are standard on the Nationwide
Sprint PCS Network, such as call waiting, Sprint PCSVision,
and direct international dialing, may be unavailable.
ⅷ
Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you
are roaming, you will not receive notification until you
return to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. (See
“Checking forVoicemail MessagesWhile Roaming”on
page 71.)
ⅷ
There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and
cloning) that exist with conventional analog services
today.
ⅷ
Your battery’s charge will deplete more quickly and you
will need to recharge it more often when you use your
phone for analog roaming.
Note: Whenusing yourphoneinanalogmode, thephonemayfeelwarm.
Thisisnormalforanalogoperation.

Section 2D: ControllingYour Roaming Experience
CheckingforVoicemailMessagesWhileRoaming
When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS
Network, you will not receive on-phone notification of new
voicemail messages. Callers can still leave messages, but you
will need to periodically check yourVoicemail for new
messages if you are in a roaming service area for an extended
period of time.
Tocheckyourvoicemailwhileroaming:
1. Dial 1 + area code + your phone number.
2. When you hear your voicemail greeting, press
.
3. Enter your passcode at the prompt and follow the voice
prompts.
When you return to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network,
voicemail notification will resume as normal.
SettingYourPhone’sRoamMode
Your phone allows you to control your roaming capabilities. By
using the Roaming menu option, you can determine which
signals your phone accepts.
Set Mode
Choose from three different settings on your dual-band phone
to control your roaming experience.
Toset yourphone’sroammode:
1. Select Menu>Settings>Roaming>Set Mode.
2. To select an option, highlight it and press
.

Automatic seeks Sprint PCS Service. When Sprint PCS
Service is unavailable, the phone searches for an
alternate system.
Sprint Only allows you to access the Nationwide
Sprint PCS Network only and prevents roaming on
other networks.
RoamingOnly forces the phone to seek a roaming
system.The previous setting (Sprint Only or
Automatic) is restored the next time the phone is
turned on.
Using Call Guard
Your phone has two ways of alerting you when you are
roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network: the onscreen
roaming icon and Call Guard. Call Guard makes it easy to
manage your roaming charges by requiring an extra step
before you can place or answer a roaming call. (This additional
step is not required when you make or receive calls while on
the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.)

maintain a data connection in a data roaming area without
asking you for permission.

MaintainingSafeUseofandAccessto
YourPhone
DoNot RelyonYourPhoneforEmergencyCalls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee
connection in all conditions.Therefore you should never rely solely upon
any mobile phone for essential communication (e.g., medical
emergencies). Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular networks
or when certain network services and/or mobile phone features are in use.
Check with your local service provider for details.
Section 4A: Important Safety Information
163
UsingYourPhoneWhileDriving
Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without a
hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to
specific restrictions. Remember that safety always comes first.
Tip: Purchaseanoptionalhands-freeaccessoryat yourlocalSprint Store, orcall

phone.
FollowingSafetyGuidelines
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special
regulations in a given area.Turn your phone off in areas where use is
forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.
UsingYourPhoneNearOtherElectronicDevices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radiofrequency (RF)
signals. However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately
shielded electronic equipment.
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded
electronic operating systems and/or entertainment systems in motor
vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their representative to determine
if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals. Also
check with the manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been
added to your vehicle.
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.
Note: Alwaysturnoffthephoneinhealth-carefacilitiesandrequest permissionbefore
usingthephonenearmedicalequipment.
TurningOffYourPhoneBeforeFlying
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft.To prevent possible
interference with aircraft systems, the 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.
164
Section 4A: Important Safety Information
TurningOffYourPhoneinDangerousAreas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a
blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating two-way radios should
be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to
set off explosives.
Turn your phone off when you’re in any area that has a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone and accessories could generate
sparks. Sparks can cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or
even death.These areas are often, but not always, clearly marked.They
include:
ⅷ
Fueling areas such as gas stations.
ⅷ
Below deck on boats.
ⅷ
Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
ⅷ
Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust,
or metal powders.
ⅷ
Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle’s engine.
Note: Nevertransport orstoreflammablegas, flammableliquid, orexplosivesinthe
compartment ofyourvehiclethat containsyourphoneoraccessories.
RestrictingChildren’sAccesstoYourPhone
Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as they could
hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or make calls that increase
your Sprint PCS invoice.
Section 4A: Important Safety Information
165
Caring for the Battery
ProtectingYourBattery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s
performance.
ⅷ
Recently there have been some public reports of wireless phone
batteries overheating, catching fire or exploding. It appears that many,
if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive,
aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable
manufacturing standards. Sprint is not aware of similar problems with
Sprint PCS® phones resulting from the proper use of batteries and
accessories approved by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone. Use
only Sprint- or manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories found
at Sprint Stores or through your phone’s manufacturer, or call 1-866-
343-1114 to order.They’re also available at www.sprint.com— click the
Wireless link under Personal, and then click Accessories.
Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure
they’re genuine and safe.
ⅷ
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that
range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).
ⅷ
Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity
areas, such as the bathroom.
ⅷ
Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
ⅷ
Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
ⅷ
Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
ⅷ
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period
of time.
ⅷ
It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable
performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs
replacing.
ⅷ
Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of
time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:
Less than one month:
-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)
166
Section 4A: Important Safety Information
More than one month:
-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)
DisposalofLithiumIon(Li-Ion)Batteries
Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can be burned.
For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest
Sprint authorized service center.
SpecialNote:Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas,
the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.
Radiofrequency (RF) Energy
UnderstandingHowYourPhoneOperates
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned
on, it receives and transmits radiofrequency (RF) signals. When you use
your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level.This
power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.
KnowingRadiofrequencySafety
The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP standards described
below.
In 1991-92, 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 hybrid standard
consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published
by the National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).
Body-WornOperation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a
handset on your body, use the Sprint supplied or approved carrying case,
holster or other body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn
accessory, ensure the antenna is at least 7/16 inch (1.5 centimeters) from
your body when transmitting. Use of non-Sprint approved accessories may
violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Section 4A: Important Safety Information
167
For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCCWeb site at
www.fcc.gov.
SpecificAbsorptionRate(SAR)forWirelessPhones
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy
absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring
and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone
emits. All phone models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory
settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially
less than the level reported to the FCC.This is because of a variety of factors
including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone design and other
factors. What is important to remember is that each phone meets strict
federal guidelines.Variations in SARs do not represent a variation in safety.
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a
substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values
between different model phones do not mean variations in safety. SAR
values at or below the federal standard of 1.6W/kg are considered safe for
use by the public.
The highest reported SAR values of the LX150are:
AMPSmode(Part 22):
Head: 0.961W/kg; Body-worn: 1.040W/kg
PCSmode(Part 24):
Head: 0.755W/kg; Body-worn: 0.215W/kg
FCCRadiofrequencyEmission
This phone meets the FCC Radiofrequency Emission Guidelines.
FCC ID number: BEJLX150.
