GettingStartedWithSprintVision  
With your Sprint service, you are ready to start enjoying the  
advantages of Sprint Vision.This section will help you learn  
the basics of using your Sprint Vision services, including  
managing your user name, launching aVision connection,  
and navigating theWeb with your phone.  
YourUserName  
When you buy your phone and sign up for service, you’re  
automatically assigned a user name, which is typically based  
on your name and a number, followed by “@sprint.com.”(For  
example, the third John Smith to sign up for SprintVision  
services might have [email protected] as his user name.)  
When you use Sprint Vision services, your user name is  
submitted to identify you to the network.The user name is  
also useful as an address for Sprint Mail, as a way to  
personalizeWeb services, and as an online virtual identity.  
Your user name will be automatically programmed into your  
phone. You don’t have to enter it.  
UpdatingYourUserName  
When you change the programmed user name and select a  
new one, you have to update your user name through your

SprintVisionConnectionStatusandIndicators  
Your phone’s display lets you know the current status of your  
Sprint Vision connection through indicators which are  
displayed at the top of the screen.The following symbols  
are used:  
Your Sprint Vision connection is active (data is being  
transferred); the transmit/receive symbol will blink to  
indicate data transmission. Incoming voice calls go  
directly to voicemail; outgoing voice calls can be made,  
but the Sprint Vision connection will terminate.  
Your Sprint Vision connection is dormant (no data is  
being sent or received).Though not currently active,  
when dormant the phone can restart an active  
connection quickly; voice calls can be made and received.  
Your phone is not currently able to access SprintVision  
service features.  
If no indicator is displayed, your phone does not have a current  
Sprint Vision connection.To launch a connection, see  
“Launching a Sprint Vision Connection”on page 201.

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 or mobile phone features are in use.  
Check with your local service provider for details.  
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.  
UsingYourPhoneNearOtherElectronicDevices  
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (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 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.

Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
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:  
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.  
Nevertransport orstoreflammablegas, flammableliquids, or  
explosivesinthecompartment ofyourvehiclethat containsyour

Note:  
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 invoice.  
Section 4A: Important Safety Information

UsingYourPhoneWithaHearingAidDevice  
A number of Sprint Nextel phones have been tested for hearing aid device  
compatibility.When some wireless phones are used with certain hearing devices  
(including hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a noise which  
can interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing device.  
Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise,  
and phones also vary in the amount of interference noise they may generate.  
ANSI standard C63.19 was developed to provide a standardized means of  
measuring both wireless phone and hearing devices to determine usability rating  
categories for both.  
Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist hearing device users find  
phones that may be compatible with their hearing device. Not all phones have  
been rated for compatibility with hearing devices. Phones that have been rated  
have a label located on the box. Your SCP-7050 by SANYO has M4 andT4 ratings.  
These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s  
hearing device and individual type and degree of hearing loss. If a hearing device  
is particularly vulnerable to interference noise; even a phone with a higher rating  
may still cause unacceptable noise levels in the hearing device.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 for hearing aid  
compatibility and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than  
unrated phones. (M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.)  
T-Ratings: Phones ratedT3 orT4 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 have telecoils in them.)  
Hearing aid devices may also be measured for immunity to interference noise  
from wireless phones and should have ratings similar to phones. Ask your hearing  
healthcare professional for the rating of your 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 excellent 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 “excellent use.”This is synonymous forT ratings.  
Sprint Nextel further suggests 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. Should you experience interference or find the  
quality of service unsatisfactory after purchasing your phone, promptly return it  
to the store within 30 days of purchase.With the Sprint 30-day Risk-Free  
Guarantee, you may return the phone within 30 days of purchase for a full refund.

ProtectingYourBattery  
The guidelines listed below 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 phones resulting from the proper use of batteries and accessories  
approved by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone. Use only Sprint-  
approved 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 option under “Personal,” and then click Accessories. Buying  
the right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure they’re  
genuine and safe.  
Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
237  
In order 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.  
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)  
DisposalofLithiumIon(Li-Ion)Batteries  
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.  
238  
Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
RadioFrequency(RF)Energy  
UnderstandingHowYourPhoneOperates  
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned  
on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. When you use  
your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level.This  
power can range from 0.006 watt to 0.2 watt 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 2.4 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 FCCWeb site at  
Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
239  
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  
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 SCP-7050 are:  
CellularCDMAmode(Part 22):  
Head: 1.22W/kg; Body-worn: 0.726W/kg  
PCSmode(Part 24):  
Head: 0.875W/kg; Body-worn: 0.316W/kg
