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.

Tip:  
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

CaringfortheBattery  
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  
Accessories. Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best way  
to ensure they’re genuine and safe.  
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)

Section 4A: Important Safety Information  
   
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 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  
191  
   
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 S1 (SCP-2500) are:  
CellularCDMAmode(Part 22):  
Head: 1.48W/kg; Body-worn: 0.616W/kg  
PCSmode(Part24):  
Head: 1.46W/kg; Body-worn: 0.367W/kg

Manufacturer’sLimitedWarranty  
SANYOFISHERCOMPANY(“SANYO”) offers you, the original purchaser  
who has purchased the enclosed subscriber unit (“Product”) only from an  
authorized dealer in the United States, a limited warranty that the Product,  
including accessories in the Product’s package, will be free from defects in  
material or workmanship as follows:  
A. ONE(1)YEARLIMITEDWARRANTY: For a period of one (1) year from  
the date of original purchase, SANYO will, at its option, either repair or  
replace a defective Product (with new or rebuilt parts/replacements).  
B. LIMITEDWARRANTYONREPAIRED/REPLACEDPRODUCTS: For a  
period equal to the remainder of the limited warranty period on the  
original Product or, on warranty repairs which have been effected on  
Products for 90 days after the date of its repair or replacement, whichever is  
longer, SANYO will repair or replace (with new or rebuilt  
parts/replacements) defective parts or Products used in the repair or  
replacement of the original Product under the LimitedWarranty on it.  
Proof that the Product is within the warranty period in the form of a bill of  
sale or warranty repair document that includes the date of purchase,  
Product serial number and the authorized dealer’s name and address, must  
be presented to obtain warranty service. This limited warranty is not  
transferable to any third party, including but not limited to any subsequent  
purchaser or owner of the Product. Transfer or resale of a Product will  
automatically terminate warranty coverage with respect to it.  
This limited warranty covers batteries only if battery capacity falls below  
80% of rated capacity or the battery leaks. Also this limited warranty does  
not cover any battery if (i) the battery has been charged by a battery charger  
not specified or approved by SANYO for charging the battery, (ii) any of the  
seals on the battery are broken or show evidence of tampering, or (iii) the  
battery has been used in equipment other than the SANYO phone for which  
it is specified.  
196  
Section 4B:Warranty  
   
This limited warranty does not cover and is void with respect to the  
following: (i) Products which have been improperly installed, repaired,  
maintained or modified (including the antenna); (ii) Products which have  
been subjected to misuse (including Products used in conjunction with  
hardware electrically or mechanically incompatible or Products used with  
software, accessories, goods or ancillary or peripheral equipment not  
supplied or expressly authorized by SANYO for use), abuse, accident,  
physical damage, abnormal use or operation, improper handling or storage,  
neglect, exposure to fire, water or excessive moisture or dampness or  
extreme changes in climate or temperature, (iii) Products operated outside  
published maximum ratings; (iv) cosmetic damage; (v) Products on which  
warranty stickers or Product serial numbers have been removed, altered, or  
rendered illegible; (vi) customer instruction; (vii) cost of installation, set up,  
removal or reinstallation; (viii) signal reception problems (unless caused by  
defect in material or workmanship); (ix) damage the result of fire, flood,  
acts of God or other acts which are not the fault of SANYO and which the  
Product is not specified to tolerate, including damage caused by  
mishandling and blown fuses; (x) consumables (such as memory cards,  
fuses, etc.); or (xi) any Products which have been opened, repaired,  
modified or altered by anyone other than SANYO or a SANYO authorized  
service center.  
This warranty is valid only in the United States.
