Turning Your Device’s Phone On and Off  
When your phone is on, it is connected to the Sprint National Network (provided you are in  
a coverage area) so that you can make and receive phone calls and use wireless services,  
such as email, messaging, and the Web browser. During initial setup, your phone is on by  
default, so you can use wireless services right away.  
If you turn off your phone, you can still use the organizer features such as Contacts and  
Calendar, as well as the media features such as the Pocket Tunes™ music application and  
Pics&Videos. This is sometimes referred to as flight mode and is ideal for using your device  
on airplanes and for maximizing battery life.

for one-handed  
navigation, or you can tap items on the screen with the stylus. With use, you will find your  
own favorite way to scroll, highlight, and select menu items.  
Some third-party applications may not work with the 5-way, and you  
must use the stylus instead. In this guide, arrow icons are used to  
indicate directions on the 5-way. These arrows are different from any  
onscreen scroll arrows or pick list arrows.

You can also scroll using the stylus. Tap an onscreen scroll arrow, or drag the slider of an  
onscreen scroll bar.

Using a Phone Headset  
You can connect a phone headset for hands-free operation. If you need to use your device  
while driving and this is permitted in your area, we recommend using a phone headset  
(wired headset included) or a hands-free car kit (sold separately).  
For a list of compatible hands-free devices, go to  
Note:  
Check the specifications for your headset or car kit to confirm compatibility. Please note  
that you cannot use stereo headphones with Bluetooth wireless technology to listen to  
music files.

Connecting to a Bluetooth Hands-Free Device  
Once you set up a partnership with a Bluetooth hands-free device such as a headset or car  
kit, you can communicate with that device whenever it is turned on and within range.  
Bluetooth range is up to 30 feet (10 meters) in optimum environmental conditions.  
Performance and range may be reduced by physical obstacles, radio interference from  
nearby electronic equipment, and other factors.  
In the documentation for the other device, a partnership might be  
referred to by a term such as trusted pair, trusted device, or pairing.  
Note:  
1. Press Applications  
and select Bluetooth  
, or tap the  
Bluetooth icon in the title bar.  
2. Select Bluetooth On.  
3. (Optional) Enter a device name that identifies your device  
when it is discovered by other Bluetooth devices.  
Use the same device name for all your Bluetooth connections. If you  
Note:  
change the device name, you need to recreate any partnerships you  
have already created.  
4. Prepare your hands-free device to accept a connection from  
another Bluetooth device. (For instructions, see the  
documentation that came with your hands-free device.)  
5. Select Setup Devices.  
6. Select Hands-free Setup.  
7. Follow the onscreen instructions to create a partnership with  
the specific hands-free device. When prompted, enter a  
passkey.  
41  
         
Some hands-free devices have a predefined passkey. If your device has  
a predefined passkey, you can find the passkey in the documentation  
for that device. Other devices provide a screen where you enter a  
passkey that you make up. In either case, you must use the same  
passkey on both your Treo device and your hands-free device. We  
recommend that, where possible, you make up a passkey of 16  
alphanumeric characters (letters and numerals only) to improve the  
security of your Treo device. The longer the passkey, the more difficult  
it is for the passkey to be deciphered.  
Important:  
8. After you finish setting up the device, select Done to return to Trusted Devices view.  
For some car kits, you need to initiate a Bluetooth connection from  
your Treo device to complete the partnership process. To do this,  
highlight the car kit in Trusted Devices view, press Menu, and then  
select Connect.  
Note:  
9. (Optional) Enable advanced hands-free features by pressing the multifunction button  
(MFB) on the hands-free device.  
You know that the connection is successful when you see a light-blue headset icon in the  
title bar of the Phone application. You can now use your Treo device with the Bluetooth  
hands-free device.  
Using a Bluetooth Hands-Free Device  
After you create a partnership with your Bluetooth hands-free device and you turn it on  
within range (up to 30 feet or 10 meters), your Treo device automatically routes all calls to  
the hands-free device instead of to the earpiece on your Treo device. When a call comes in,  
your Treo device rings and the hands-free device beeps. Even if you answer the call on your  
Treo device, the call goes to the hands-free device. If you prefer to route calls to the earpiece  
on your Treo device, you can change the settings on your Treo device to do this; see the User  
Guide for information on customizing advanced settings for your hands-free device.  
42  
     
The features of a hands-free device vary by model. Check the documentation for your  
hands-free device for details about these features. Your Treo device can support the  
following actions, provided that your hands-free device also supports them:  
Answer an incoming call.  
Hang up a call and answer a call-waiting call.  
Place a call on hold and answer a call-waiting call.  
Hang up a single call.  
Transfer a call from the earpiece on your Treo device to the hands-free device.  
Ignore an incoming call.  
Redial the last number you called from the hands-free device.

not in your Contacts or Favorites.  
Roaming for incoming calls when you’re outside the Sprint National Network.  
9. Select Done.

soft reset may help. All your information is retained when you perform a soft reset.  
1. Press Power/End  
to turn off the screen.  
2. Press the battery door release, and slide the battery door downward to remove it

transfer them to your device to listen to them on your device.  
If an expansion card is inserted into the device, on a Windows computer, Windows Media  
Player copies the MP3 files to the expansion card. If you don’t have an expansion card  
inserted, the MP3 files are copied to device memory.  
If you are transferring MP3 files from a Mac computer, you must insert an expansion card  
into the device. You cannot transfer MP3 files to device memory from a Mac.  
You must synchronize your device with your computer at least once  
before you can transfer MP3 files from your computer.

file for personal use and to honor any restrictions imposed by the  
original content providers.

Connecting to Devices With Bluetooth Wireless Technology  
®
With your device’s built-in Bluetooth wireless technology, you can connect to a number of  
Bluetooth devices, such as a headset, car kit, printer, or GPS receiver, as well as to other  
phones and handhelds that are equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology. If your  
computer is enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology, you can also synchronize  
wirelessly or use your device as a wireless modem. See the User Guide for details.  
You can create a list of Bluetooth devices that you trust to communicate with your Treo  
device. When communicating with trusted devices, your Treo device skips the discovery  
process and creates a secure link as long as the Bluetooth device is within range. Bluetooth  
range is up to 30 feet (10 meters), depending on environmental conditions, including  
obstacles, radio interference from nearby electronic equipment, and other factors.  
Entering Basic Bluetooth Settings  
To use your Treo device’s Bluetooth functionality, you need to turn the Bluetooth feature  
on, and you may need to make your device either temporarily or permanently visible. You  
can also enter a name for your device.  
1. Press Applications  
and select Bluetooth  
.
2. Select Bluetooth On.  
3. (Optional) Enter a device name that identifies your Treo device  
when it is discovered by other Bluetooth devices.  
Use the same device name for all your Bluetooth connections. If you  
change the device name, you need to recreate any partnerships you  
have already created.  
Note:  
94  
       
4. Select the Visibility pick list and select one of the following:  
Visible enables Bluetooth devices that are not on your Trusted Device list to  
request a connection with your device. Your device remains accessible to other  
devices until you turn this option off.  
Temporary enables Bluetooth devices that are not on your Trusted Device list to  
request a connection with your device during the next two minutes. Your device  
reverts to the Hidden setting and becomes inaccessible to other devices after two  
minutes.  
For your Treo device to be visible to other Bluetooth devices, the  
Bluetooth setting must be set to On, and visibility must be set to  
Visible or Temporary. Your Treo device screen does not need to be  
turned on. If you are requesting a connection with another device, or if  
you are accepting a request from a trusted device, your Treo device can  
be set to any of the Visibility options.  
Important:  
Hidden allows only devices with which you have previously formed a partnership  
to request a connection with your Treo device. New devices cannot request a  
connection.  
Requesting a Connection With Another Bluetooth Device  
1. Press Applications and select Bluetooth  
.
2. If you have not already done so, enter the basic Bluetooth settings as described in

5. Select Add Device. (The Discovery icon appears, indicating that  
the discovery process is active.)  
6. Select the Show pick list and select Nearby devices.  
7. If the device you want to add doesn’t appear in the discovery  
results list, make sure that the other device is ready to receive  
a connection request (see the device’s documentation), and  
then select Find More on your Treo device.  
8. Enter the same passkey on your Treo device and on the Bluetooth device, and then  
select OK.  
Some Bluetooth devices have a predefined passkey. If your device has a  
predefined passkey, you can find the passkey in the documentation for  
that device. Other Bluetooth devices provide a screen where you enter  
a passkey that you make up. In either case, you must use the same  
passkey on both your Treo device and your Bluetooth device. We  
recommend that, where possible, you make up a passkey of 16  
alphanumeric characters (letters and numerals only) to improve the  
security of your Treo device. The longer the passkey, the more difficult  
it is for the passkey to be deciphered.  
Important:  
9. Select Done.  
To accept a connection request from another Bluetooth device, enter  
the correct settings as described in “Entering Basic Bluetooth Settings”  
on page 94, and then enter the same passkey on your Treo device and  
on the Bluetooth device. If you want to form a partnership with the  
requesting device, check the Add to trusted device list box. Select OK.

personnel to service your device and accessories. Failure to do so may  
be dangerous and void your warranty.  
Note:  
100  
 
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Device  
Do Not Rely on Your Device’s Phone for Emergency Calls  
Wireless phones such as the one on your Treo device operate using radio signals, which  
cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon  
any wireless phone for essential communication (for example, medical emergencies).  
Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular networks or when certain network  
services and/or phone features are in use. Check with your local service provider for details.  
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.  
Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local Sprint Store, or  
call the Sprint Accessory Hotline at 1-800-974-2221 or by entering  
#222 on your device.  
Tip:  
Following Safety Guidelines  
To operate your device safely and efficiently, always follow any special regulations in a  
given area. Turn your device’s phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may  
cause interference or danger.  
Using Your Device’s 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  
101  
 
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.  
Always turn off the phone in health care facilities and request  
permission before using the phone near medical equipment.  
Note:  
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 your phone off 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 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:  
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.  
102  
Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquid, or  
explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your  
phone or accessories.  
Note:  
Restricting Children’s Access to Your Device  
Your Treo device is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it, because they could hurt  
themselves and others, damage the device and/or its phone, or make calls that increase  
your Sprint invoice.  
103  
Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device  
Your Treo device is compliant with the FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) requirements.  
For additional HAC information, including the HAC rating of this product, please refer to  
Your device 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 have been rated have a label on the  
box. Your Treo 755P Smart Device by Palm phone has an M3 and T3 rating.  
These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary, depending on the level of immunity of  
your hearing device and the degree of your hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to  
be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone successfully. Trying  
out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal  
needs.  
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less  
interference with hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher  
of the two ratings.  
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable  
with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4  
is the better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices contain telecoils.)  
The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely you are to experience  
interference noise from your wireless phone. Hearing aid devices should have ratings  
similar to those of phones. Ask your hearing health-care professional for the rating of your  
104  
 
hearing aid. Add the rating of your hearing aid and your phone to determine probable  
usability:  
Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers best use.  
Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.  
Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable.  
Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will have a combined rating of  
six for “best use.” This is synonymous for T ratings.  
Sprint Nextel further suggests that you experiment with multiple phones (even those not  
labeled M3/T3 or M4/T4) while in the store to find the one that works best with your  
hearing aid device. If you experience interference or find the quality of service  
unsatisfactory after purchasing your device, promptly return it to the store within 30 days  
of purchase. With the Sprint 30-day Risk-Free Guarantee, you may return the device within  
30 days of purchase for a full refund.  
Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience With Your Device  
To further minimize interference:  
There is usually less interference on the microphone setting than on the telecoil setting.  
Set the phone’s screen and keyboard backlight settings to ensure the minimum time  
interval.  
Move the phone around to find the point with the least interference.  
If your hearing aid is equipped with a telecoil, turn on the HAC setting on your device.  
Turning on the HAC Setting  
When the HAC setting is on, your device sends the audio from your phone calls to the  
telecoil rather than to the microphone of your hearing aid. You are likely to hear calls much  
better because volume is increased and background noise and feedback are diminished.  
The HAC setting improves only the calls you listen to through the earpiece. It does not  
affect calls heard on the speakerphone or with a car kit or headset. HAC requires extra  
battery power, so watch your battery consumption when it's turned on.  
105  
 
Do not turn on the HAC setting unless you use a hearing aid with a  
telecoil. Using this setting without a hearing aid or with a hearing aid  
without a telecoil may be harmful to your hearing.

TTY Use With Sprint Service  
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 device is compatible with select TTY devices. You can connect a TTY/TDD machine,  
headset, or hands-free kit to your device through the headset jack while this mode is  
enabled. Please check with the manufacturer of your TTY device for connectivity  
information and to ensure that the TTY device supports digital wireless transmission.  
When establishing your Sprint service, please call Sprint Customer Service via the state  
Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first pressing 711 and then pressing Talk  
Then provide the state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.  
.
911 Emergency Calling  
WARNING:  
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 to be 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.

Caring for the Battery  
Protecting Your Battery  
The guidelines listed here help you get the most out of your battery’s performance.  
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 Treo  
devices 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 device’s manufacturer, or call  
1-866-343-1114 to order. They’re also available at www.sprint.com — click the  
Accessories link under Shop & Browse. Buying the right batteries and accessories is the  
best way to ensure that they’re genuine and safe.  
To avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32° F to  
113° F (0° C to 45° 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.  
109  
 
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)  
More than one month:  
-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)  
Disposal of Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) Batteries  
Do not handle a damaged or leaking li-ion battery; you can be burned.  
For safe disposal options of your li-ion batteries, contact your nearest Sprint authorized  
service center.  
Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas, the disposal of  
batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.  
110  
Radiofrequency (RF) Energy  
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 Treo device 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-Worn Operation  
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a handset on your  
body, use the carrying case, holster, or other body-worn accessory that is supplied by or  
approved by Sprint. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure that the antenna is at  
least 7/16 inches (1.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use of accessories  
that are not approved by Sprint may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.  
For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC Web site at www.fcc.gov.  
111  
 
Specific Absorption Rate (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 (FCC) SAR values of the Treo 755P Smart Device by Palm are:  
Maximum SAR Values

FCC as:  
FCC ID number: 08F-895.  
More information on the phone’s SAR can be found from the following FCC Web site:  
113  
Static Electricity, ESD, and Your Device  
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause damage to electronic devices if discharged into the  
device, so you should take steps to avoid such an occurrence.  
Description of ESD  
Static electricity is an electrical charge caused by the buildup of excess electrons on the  
surface of a material. To most people, static electricity and ESD are nothing more than  
annoyances. For example, after walking over a carpet while scuffing your feet, building up  
electrons on your body, you may get a shock—the discharge event—when you touch a  
metal doorknob. This little shock discharges the built-up static electricity.  
ESD-Susceptible Equipment  
Even a small amount of ESD can harm circuitry, so when working with electronic devices,  
®
take measures to help protect your electronic devices, including your Palm device, from  
ESD harm. While Palm has built protections against ESD into its products, ESD  
unfortunately exists and, unless neutralized, could build up to levels that could harm your  
equipment. Any electronic device that contains an external entry point for plugging in  
anything from cables to docking stations is susceptible to entry of ESD. Devices that you  
carry with you, such as your Palm device, build up ESD in a unique way because the static  
electricity that may have built up on your body is automatically passed to the device. Then,  
when the device is connected to another device such as a docking station, a discharge event  
can occur.  
Precautions Against ESD  
Make sure to discharge any built-up static electricity from yourself and your electronic  
devices before touching an electronic device or connecting one device to another. The  
recommendation from Palm is that you take this precaution before connecting your device  
114  
 
to your computer, placing the device in a cradle, or connecting it to any other device. You  
can do this in many ways, including the following:  
Ground yourself when you’re holding your device by simultaneously touching a metal  
surface that is at earth ground. For example, if your computer has a metal case and is  
plugged into a standard three-prong grounded outlet, touching the case should  
discharge the ESD on your body.  
Increase the relative humidity of your environment.  
Install ESD-specific prevention items, such as grounding mats.  
Conditions That Enhance ESD Occurrences  
Conditions that can contribute to the buildup of static electricity in the environment  
include the following:  
Low relative humidity.  
Material type (The type of material gathering the charge. For example, synthetics are  
more prone to static buildup than natural fibers like cotton.)  
The rapidity with which you touch, connect, or disconnect electronic devices.  
While you should always take appropriate precautions to discharge static electricity, if you  
are in an environment where you notice ESD events, you may want to take extra  
precautions to protect your electronic equipment against ESD.
