theNationwideSprint PCSNetwork.Your new dual-band/tri-
mode Sprint PCSVision PhoneVI-2300 by Sanyo works
anywhere on the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network and
allows you to roam on other analog and 1900 and 800 MHz
digital networks where we’ve implemented roaming
agreements with other carriers.
This section explains how roaming works as well as special
features that let you manage your roaming experience.
Section 2D: ControllingYour Roaming Experience
91
UnderstandingRoaming
RecognizingtheRoamingIconontheDisplayScreen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re
off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Any time you are
roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ). If you are
roaming on a digital system, the roaming icon will display
along with the text DigitalRoam, and on an analog system,
with the text AnalogRoam.
Tip:Remember, whenyouareusingyourphoneofftheNationwide
Sprint PCSNetwork, alwaysdialnumbersusing11digits(1+areacode+
number).
Note:UnlessyourSprint PCSServicePlanincludesroaming, youwillpaya
higherper-minuterateforroamingcalls.
RoamingonOtherDigitalNetworks
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 Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.
However, you may not be able to access certain features, such
as Sprint PCSVision.
Note:Sprint PCSReadyLinkServiceisnot availableinroamingareas.
RoamingonAnalogNetworks
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a
similar quality provided by other analog carriers today.
Although some features, such as Sprint PCSVision, Sprint PCS
Ready Link, and Sprint PCSVoice Command, will be
unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access
92
Section 2D: ControllingYour Roaming Experience
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, cross-talk, fade-
out, and dropped calls.
ⅷ
Some features which are standard on the Nationwide
Sprint PCS Network, such as call waiting, Sprint PCSVision,
Sprint PCS Ready Link, and direct international dialing,
may not be available.
ⅷ
Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you
are roaming, you may not receive notification until you
return to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. (See
“Checking forVoicemail MessagesWhile Roaming”on the
next page.)
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.

CheckingforVoicemailMessagesWhileRoaming
When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS
Network, you may not receive on-phone notification of new
voicemail messages. Callers can still leave messages, but you
will need to periodically check your voicemail for new
messages if you are in a roaming service area for an extended
period of time.

Dial 1+area code+your Sprint PCS Phone Number.
When you return to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network,
voicemail notification will resume as normal.
SettingYourPhone’sRoamMode
Your Sprint PCSVision 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/tri-
mode phone to control your roaming experience.

Sprint Only allows you to access the Nationwide
Sprint PCS Network only and prevents roaming on
other networks.
Automatic seeks Sprint PCS Service. When Sprint PCS
Service is unavailable, the phone searches for an
alternate system.
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.
ControllingRoamingChargesUsing
CallGuard
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.)

operation.
Section 4A: Safety
255
GettingtheMost Out ofYourReception
KeepingTabsonSignalStrength
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.
UnderstandingthePowerSaveFeature
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; you can also check it yourself by
pressing any key. Anytime the Power Save feature is activated, a message is
displayed on the screen. When a signal is found, your phone returns to
standby mode.
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 Sprint 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).
256
Section 4A: Safety
MaintainingYourPhone’sPeakPerformance
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and
maintaining safe, satisfactory service.
ⅷ
Hold the phone with the antenna raised, fully-extended, and over your
shoulder.
ⅷ
Try not to hold, bend, or twist the phone’s antenna.
ⅷ
Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged.
ⅷ
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.
ⅷ
Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If
your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove
the battery.

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.

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.
Section 4A: Safety
257
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:Alwaysturnoffthephoneinhealthcarefacilitiesandrequest 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.
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.
258
Section 4A: Safety

Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust,

Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle’s engine.

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.
UsingYour PhoneWith a Hearing Aid
Device
Your Sprint PCS® phone has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility.
When some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing
aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or
whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this
interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference they
generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their
mobile phones, to assist hearing device users in finding phones that may be
compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated.
Phones that are rated will have the rating on the box. YourVI-2300 by
Sanyo has an M3 rating.
Note: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and may generate less
interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the
better/higher of the two ratings.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user's
hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be
vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to successfully use a phone
that has been tested and rated as Hearing Aid compatible.Trying the phone
with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal
needs. Should you experience interference when using yourVI-2300 with
your hearing device, Sprint suggests you promptly return the phone to the
Section 4A: Safety
259
store. With the Sprint 14-day Risk-Free Guarantee you may return the phone
within 14 days of purchase for a full refund. Sprint further suggests you
experiment with multiple phones (even those not labeled with an M3 or
M4) while in the retail store to find the one that works best with your
hearing device
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of
interference.Your hearing aid device manufacturer or hearing health
professional may help you find results for your hearing device.The more
immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are to experience
interference noise from wireless phones.
Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience

theFCC Notice
FCC Notice
This phone may causeTV 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 (propane or butane) must comply
with the National Fire Protection Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this
standard, contact the National Fire Protections 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-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 1.9 centimeters from your body
when transmitting. Use of non-Sprint approved accessories may violate
FCC RF exposure guidelines.
For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCCWebsite at
www.fcc.gov.
SpecificAbsorptionRates(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
262
Section 4A: Safety
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 MM-8300 are:
AMPS/CDMAmodes(Part 22):
Head: 1.450W/kg; Body-worn: 1.130W/kg
PCSmode(Part 24):
Head: 1.280W/kg; Body-worn: 0.957W/kg
FCCRadiofrequencyEmission
This phone meets the FCC Radiofrequency Emission Guidelines.
FCC ID number: AEZSCP-23H. More information on the phone’s SAR can be
found from the following FCCWebsite: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid.
