TTY Use With PCS Service From Sprint
A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a
telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf or
hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to
communicate by telephone.
Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices. Please
check with the manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure that
it supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY
device will connect via a special cable that plugs into your
phone's headset jack. If this cable was not provided with your
TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase
the connector cable.
When establishing your PCS Service, please call PCS Customer
SM
Solutions via the state Telecommunications Relay Service
(TRS) by first dialing
. Then provide the state
TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.
Section 2: Understanding Your PCS Phone

connected to the headset jack may be impaired.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: 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 PSAP
community are currently working to resolve this.

Understanding Roaming
Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
Controlling Roaming Charges Using Call Guard
oaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off
the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. Your new
dual band/tri mode PCS Phone works anywhere on the enhanced
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. It also allows you to roam on
other networks where we’ve implemented roaming agreements
with other carriers and in limited areas where 1900 MHz digital
networks are available.
This section explains how roaming works as well as special
features that let you manage your roaming experience.
Section 2: Understanding Your PCS Phone
Understanding Roaming
Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re
off the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network and whether
your phone is operating in analog or digital mode. The following
chart indicates what you’ll see depending on where you’re using
your phone.
Roaming Indicator
Analog Indicator
Sprint Nationwide PCS
Network
Other Digital Networks
Analog Networks
Tip: Remember, when you are using your phone off the Sprint Nationwide
PCS Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).
Note: You will pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality and
security will be similar to the quality you receive when making
calls on the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. You may
not be able to access certain features, such as PCS Vision.
Section 2: Understanding Your PCS Phone
Roaming on Analog Networks
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a
similar quality provided by other analog carriers today. Although
some features, such as PCS Vision and PCS Voice Command, will
be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access
voicemail. You will experience a few differences:
ᮣ
You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out,
and dropped calls.
ᮣ
Some features which are standard on the enhanced
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network, such as Call Waiting,
PCS Vision, and direct international dialing, are unavailable.
ᮣ
Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are
roaming, you will not receive notification until you return
to the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. While roaming, you
can periodically check your voicemail for new messages by
dialing 1+area code+your PCS Phone Number. Press
when you hear your greeting and enter your passcode at the
prompt.
ᮣ
ᮣ
There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and
cloning) that exist with conventional analog services today.
Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your
phone for analog roaming.
Note: If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network
and enter an area where roaming is available (whether digital or analog),
your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think
PCS Service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to
the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network.
Note: When using your phone in analog mode, the handset may feel warm.
This behavior is normal for analog operation.

ᮣ
Digit Dial works best in quieter environments.
ᮣ
When saying a number, speak at a normal speed and say
each digit clearly. There is no need to pause between digits.

correct number, say "Yes." You can also select the correct
number from those displayed on the screen by pressing
on the correct number. The phone will then dial

Adapting Digit Dial
Digit Dialing is speaker independent, which means that no
training or adaptation is required. Some users with heavy
accents or unusual voice characteristics may find difficulty in
achieving high accuracy with speaker independent Digit
Dialing, so the Adapt Digits feature allows users to dramatically
improve the digit accuracy through adaptation. Users who get
acceptable digit recognition accuracy will find no additional
benefit to performing the Adapt Digit adaptation.
After you adapt Digit Dial, your phone will be customized to
your voice. Other people will not be able to use Digit Dial on
your phone unless they reset the phone to factory defaults.
Important: ONLY adapt Digit Dial if the system is frequently
mis-recognizing your speech. You can always restore the system to its
original factory setting.
Adaptation involves recording several digit sequences to teach
the system your voice. The adaptation process takes about 3
minutes.
Tips for adapting Digit Dial:

normal tone of voice. The phone plays back your
recording and asks you if the recording sounds "OK."
6. If the recording sounds OK (no mistakes, and no
background noises), say Yes. If you need to re-record the
digits to fix any problems, say No. The phone then
prompts you to say the digits again. Wait for the beep, and
then record the digits again. Repeat this step until you are
satisfied with the recording.
7. After confirming that the recording sounds OK, repeat the
recording process with the next set of digits. After six sets
of digits, the phone will ask you whether you want to do
more adaptation. Answer Yes.
8. Repeat steps 4-8 for another six sets of digits. After the
sixth set of digits, you will be half way through the session
and the phone asks “More Adapatation?” Select OK to
continue for six more sets of digits, or press
for
partial adapation. When you are finished with a full
session, you will reach a screen that reads, “Adaptation
Complete.”
Note: It is recommended that you perform the complete adaptation of Digit
Dial at least once to achieve the maximum benefit of this feature. If a
partial adaptation is performed, you can always return later and resume
the process from the half way point.

Name is also useful as an address for PCS Mail, as a way to
personalize Web services, and as an online virtual identity.
A User Name is typically based on the customer's name and a
number, followed by "@sprintpcs.com." For example, the third
John Smith to sign up for PCS Vision services might have
[email protected] as his User Name. If you want a particular
you want – as long as nobody else has it.

become your PCS Vision User Name.
Your User Name will be automatically programmed into your
PCS Phone. You don't have to enter it.

Getting the Most Out of Your Reception
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phone
Caring for the Battery
Acknowledging Special Precautions and the FCC Notice
art of getting the most out of your PCS Phone is learning how
the phone works and how to care for it. This section outlines
performance and safety guidelines that help you understand the
basic features of your phone’s operation.
Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information
Getting the Most Out of Your Reception
Keeping Tabs on Signal Strength
The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the
signal strength in your area. Your phone informs you of the
current signal strength by displaying a number of bars next to
the signal strength icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger
the signal. If you’re inside a building, being near a window may
give you better reception.
Understanding the Power Save Feature
If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of
searching, a Power Save feature is automatically activated. If your
phone is active, it periodically rechecks service availability or
you can check it yourself by pressing any key. Anytime the
Power Save feature is activated, a message displays on the screen.
When a signal is found, your phone returns to standby mode.
Understanding How Your Phone Operates
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.
Knowing Radiofrequency Safety
The design of your PCS 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).
Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information

Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to
Your Phone
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS OUTLINED MAY
LEAD TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND POSSIBLE
PROPERTY DAMAGE
Using Your Phone While Driving
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.
When using your phone in the car:
ᮣ
Get to know your phone and its features, such as speed dial
and redial.
ᮣ
ᮣ
ᮣ
When available, use a hands-free device.
Position your phone within easy reach.
Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if
necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous
weather conditions.
Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information
ᮣ
ᮣ
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls
when stationary or before pulling into traffic.
ᮣ
ᮣ
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that
may divert your attention from the road.
Dial 911 to report serious emergencies. It’s free from your
wireless phone.
ᮣ
ᮣ
Use your phone to help others in emergencies.
Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless
number when necessary.
Tip: Purchase an optional hands-free car kit at your local Sprint Store.
You may also call the PCS Accessory Hotline at 1-800-974-2221 or by
dialing
on your PCS Phone.
Following Safety Guidelines
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.
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices
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: Always turn off the phone in health care facilities and request
permission before using the phone near medical equipment.
Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information
Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying
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.
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, 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’re in any area that has a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your
phone or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks could
cause an explosion or a fire resulting in bodily injury or even
death. These areas 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.
ᮣ
Any other area where you would normally be advised to
turn off your vehicle’s engine.
Note: Never transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the
compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.
Restricting Children’s Access to your Phone
Your PCS Phone is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to
play with it because they could hurt themselves and others,
damage the phone or make calls that increase your phone bill.
Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information
Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your
battery’s performance.
ᮣ
Use only Sprint-approved batteries and desktop chargers.
These chargers are designed to maximize battery life. Using
other batteries or chargers voids your warranty and may
cause damage.
ᮣ
ᮣ
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in
temperatures that range from 32º F to 113º F (0º C to 45º C).
Don’t 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 on top of the battery clean.
Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for
a long period of time.
ᮣ
ᮣ
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.
Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long
periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:
ⅷ
Less than one month:
4º F to 140º F (-20º C to 60º C)
ⅷ
More than one month:
4º F to 113º F (-20º C to 45º C)
Disposal of Lithium Ion (LiIon) Batteries
For safe disposal options of your LiIon batteries, contact your
nearest Sprint-authorized service center.

Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information
Acknowledging Special Precautions and the
FCC Notice
FCC Notice
The phone may cause TV or radio interference if used in close
proximity to receiving equipment. The FCC can require you to
stop using the phone if such interference cannot be eliminated.
Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or
butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection
Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the
National Fire Protection Association, One Batterymarch Park,
Quincy, MA 02269, Attn: Publication Sales Division.
Cautions
Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly
approved in this document could void your warranty for this
equipment, and void your authority to operate this equipment.
Only use approved batteries, antennas and chargers. The use of
any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the
phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to
the phone.
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of
equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting,
bending or sitting on it.
Body-Worn Operation
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 that 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.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC
Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones
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 1.6 W/
kg are considered safe for use by the public.
The highest reported SAR values of the VGA1000 are:
AMPS mode (Part 22) - Head: 1.48 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.90 W/kg
PCS mode (Part 24) - Head: 1.26 W/kg; Body-worn: 1.10 W/kg
FCC Radiofrequency Emission
This phone meets the FCC Radiofrequency Emission
Guidelines. FCC ID number: A3LSPHA620. More information on
the phone's SAR can be found from the following FCC Website:
