Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger

Battery Capacity

Your Sprint PCS Vision Phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery. It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained.

The battery provides up to 3.2 hours of continuous digital talk time.

When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon blinks.

When there are up to two minutes of talk time left, the phone sounds an audible alert and then powers down.

Note:

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, and browser use affect the battery’s talk and standby times.

Tip:

Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the battery before it runs out of power.

Installing the Battery

To install the battery, replace the battery, or to access your phone’s ESN

(electronic serial number), you must first remove the phone back cover.

Note:

Before removing the cover, always switch off the power and disconnect the charger and any other device. Avoid touching electronic components while changing the covers. Always store and use the device with the covers attached.

To remove the back cover, turn the phone upside down, press the release button down, and push the back cover away.


To install the LiIon battery:

1.

Insert the battery (label side facing up) into the cavity at a

45-degree angle. (The metal contacts must be aligned with and touching the metal prongs.)

2.

Press down on the battery until it snaps into place.

Removing the Battery

To remove your battery:

1.

Make sure the power is off so that you don’t lose any stored numbers or messages.

2.

To remove the back cover, turn the phone upside down, press the release button down, and push the back cover away.

3.

Pull downward on the upper end of the battery with your finger tip and remove the battery from the phone at a 45-degree angle.


Charging the Battery

Your Sprint PCS Vision Phone’s LiIon battery is rechargeable and should be charged as soon as possible so you can begin using your phone.

Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your battery level becomes too low, your phone automatically turns off and you will lose all the information you were just working on. For a quick check of your phone’s battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upper-right corner of your phone’s display screen. If the battery charge is getting too low, the battery icon ( ) blinks and the phone sounds a warning tone.

Always use a Sprint-approved desktop charger, travel charger, or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.

To use the charger provided with your phone:

䊳

Plug the round end of the AC adapter into the phone’s charger jack and the other end into a standard electrical outlet.

Important Note:

It is vital that you use only Sprint-approved AC adapter chargers. Use of unauthorized accessories could damage your phone and invalidate your warranty.

It takes approximately 3 hours to fully recharge a completely rundown battery. With the Sprint-approved LiIon battery, you can recharge the battery before it becomes completely run down.

TTY UseWith Sprint PCS 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 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 Sprint PCS Service, please call Sprint Customer

Service via the state Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first dialing

7 1 1

number: 866-727-4889.

TALK

. Then provide the state TRS with this

IMPORTANT

NOTICE:

911 Emergency Calling

Sprint recommends thatTTY 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.

Controlling Your Roaming Experience

⽧

Understanding Roaming

⽧

Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode

⽧

Using Call Guard

Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off the

Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.Your new dual-band/tri-mode

Sprint PCS Vision Phone 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: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 50

Understanding Roaming

Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the

Nationwide Sprint 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 Analog

Indicator Indicator

Nationwide Sprint PCS Network

Other Digital Networks

Analog Networks

– Analog Roam –

Tip:

Remember, when you are using your phone off the Nationwide Sprint PCS

Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).

Note:

Unless your Sprint PCS Service Plan includes roaming, 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

Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. However, you may not be able to access certain features, such as Sprint PCS Vision.


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 Sprint PCS Vision and Sprint PCS Voice Command, will be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access voicemail.

If you are accustomed to Sprint PCS Service, you may notice some of the following differences when using analog service:

䢇

You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out, and dropped calls.

䢇 Some features which are standard on the Nationwide Sprint PCS

Network, such as call waiting, Sprint PCS Vision, and direct international dialing, are unavailable.

䢇 Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are roaming, you will not receive notification until you return to the Nationwide

Sprint PCS Network. (See “Checking for Voicemail Messages While

Roaming”on page 53).

䢇

There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning) that exist with conventional analog services today.

䢇 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.

Note:

If you’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide Sprint 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 Sprint PCS

Service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to the

Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.

When using your phone in analog mode, the phone may feel warm. This is normal for analog operation.


Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming

When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network, you will 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.

To check your voicemail while roaming:

1.

Dial 1+area code+your Sprint PCS Phone Number.

2.

When you hear your voicemail greeting, press .

3.

Enter your pass code at the prompt and follow the voice prompts.

When you return to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network, voicemail notification will resume as normal.


Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode

Your Sprint PCS Vision 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.

Part of getting the most out of your Sprint PCS Vision 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 4A: Safety 154

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; 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.

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 Radio Frequency Safety

The design of your Sprint PCS Vision 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).

Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak Performance

There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.

䢇

Hold the phone with the antenna raised, fully-extended, and over your shoulder.

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.

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 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:

䢇

Fueling areas such as gas stations.

䢇

Below deck on boats.

䢇

Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.

䢇

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

䢇

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 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.


Caring for the Battery

Protecting Your Battery

The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance.

䢇

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.

䢇

In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from

32º F to 113º F (0º C to 45º C).

䢇

Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.

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 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, visit the FCC Website at www.fcc.gov.


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 PM-325 are:

AMPS mode (Part 22):

Head: 0.903 W/kg; Body-worn: 1.270 W/kg

CDMA mode (Part 22):

Head: 0.508W/kg; Body-worn: 0.509 W/kg

PCS mode (Part 24):

Head: 0.947 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.648 W/kg

FCC Radiofrequency Emission

This phone meets the FCC Radiofrequency Emission Guidelines. FCC ID number:

BEJLX325. More information on the phone's SAR can be found from the following FCC

Consumer Information on Wireless Phones

(The following information comes from a consumer information Website jointly sponsored by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC), entitled “Cell Phone Facts: Consumer Information on Wireless Phones.”The information reproduced herein is dated July 29, 2003. For further updates, please visit the Website: http://www.fda.gov/cellphones/qa.html.)

What is radiofrequency energy (RF)?

Radiofrequency (RF) energy is another name for radio waves. It is one form of electromagnetic energy that makes up the electromagnetic spectrum. Some of the other forms of energy in the electromagnetic spectrum are gamma rays, x-rays and light. Electromagnetic energy (or electromagnetic radiation) consists of waves of electric and magnetic energy moving together (radiating) through space. The area where these waves are found is called an electromagnetic field.

Radio waves are created due to the movement of electrical charges in antennas. As they are created, these waves radiate away from the antenna. All electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light. The major differences between the different types of waves are the distances covered by one cycle of the wave and the number of waves that pass a certain point during a set time period. The wavelength is the distance covered by one cycle of a wave. The frequency is the number of waves passing a given point in one second. For any electromagnetic wave, the wavelength multiplied by the frequency equals the speed of light. The frequency of an RF signal is usually expressed in units called hertz (Hz). One Hz equals one wave per second. One kilohertz (kHz) equals one thousand waves per second, one megahertz (MHz) equals one million waves per second, and one gigahertz (GHz) equals one billion waves per second.

RF energy includes waves with frequencies ranging from about 3000 waves per second (3 kHz) to 300 billion waves per second (300 GHz). Microwaves are a subset of radio waves that have frequencies ranging from around 300 million waves per second (300 MHz) to three billion waves per second (3 GHz).

How is radiofrequency energy used?

Probably the most important use of RF energy is for telecommunications. Radio and

TV broadcasting, wireless phones, pagers, cordless phones, police and fire department radios, point-to-point links and satellite communications all rely on

RF energy.

Other uses of RF energy include microwave ovens, radar, industrial heaters and sealers, and medical treatments. RF energy, especially at microwave frequencies, can heat water. Since most food has a high water content, microwaves can cook food quickly. Radar relies on RF energy to track cars and airplanes as well as for military applications. Industrial heaters and sealers use RF energy to mold plastic materials, glue wood products, seal leather items such as shoes and pocketbooks, and process food. Medical uses of RF energy include pacemaker monitoring and programming.


How is radiofrequency radiation measured?

RF waves and RF fields have both electrical and magnetic components. It is often convenient to express the strength of the RF field in terms of each component. For example, the unit "volts per meter" (V/m) is used to measure the electric field strength, and the unit "amperes per meter" (A/m) is used to express the magnetic field strength. Another common way to characterize an RF field is by means of the power density. Power density is defined as power per unit area. For example, power density can be expressed in terms of milliwatts (one thousandth of a watt) per square centimeter (mW/cm2 or microwatts (one millionth of a watt) per square centimeter (μW/cm2).

The quantity used to measure how much RF energy is actually absorbed by the body is called the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy. It is usually expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg) or milliwatts per gram (mW/g).

What biological effects can be caused by RF energy?

The biological effects of radiofrequency energy should not be confused with the effects from other types of electromagnetic energy.

Very high levels of electromagnetic energy, such as is found in X-rays and gamma rays can ionize biological tissues. Ionization is a process where electrons are stripped away from their normal locations in atoms and molecules. It can permanently damage biological tissues including DNA, the genetic material. Ionization only occurs with very high levels of electromagnetic energy such as X-rays and gamma rays. Often the term radiation is used when discussing ionizing radiation (such as that associated with nuclear power plants).

The energy levels associated with radiofrequency energy, including both radio waves and microwaves, are not great enough to cause the ionization of atoms and molecules. Therefore, RF energy is a type of non-ionizing radiation. Other types of non-ionizing radiation include visible light, infrared radiation (heat) and other forms of electromagnetic radiation with relatively low frequencies.

Large amounts of RF energy can heat tissue. This can damage tissues and increase body temperatures. Two areas of the body, the eyes and the testes, are particularly vulnerable to RF heating because there is relatively little blood flow in them to carry away excess heat.

The amount of RF radiation routinely encountered by the general public is too low to produce significant heating or increased body temperature. Still, some people have questions about the possible health effects of low levels of RF energy. It is generally agreed that further research is needed to determine what effects actually occur and whether they are dangerous to people. In the meantime, standards-setting organizations and government agencies are continuing to monitor the latest scientific findings to determine whether changes in safety limits are needed to protect human health.


FDA, EPA and other US government agencies responsible for public health and safety have worked together and in connection with WHO to monitor developments and identify research needs related to RF biological effects.

What levels of RF energy are considered safe?

Various organizations and countries have developed standards for exposure to radiofrequency energy. These standards recommend safe levels of exposure for both the general public and for workers. In the United States, the FCC has used safety guidelines for RF environmental exposure since 1985.

The FCC guidelines for human exposure to RF electromagnetic fields are derived from the recommendations of two expert organizations, the National Council on

Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and

Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the recommendations were developed by scientific and engineering experts drawn from industry, government, and academia after extensive reviews of the scientific literature related to the biological effects of

RF energy.

Many countries in Europe and elsewhere use exposure guidelines developed by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP).

The ICNIRP safety limits are generally similar to those of the NCRP and IEEE, with a few exceptions. For example, ICNIRP recommends different exposure levels in the lower and upper frequency ranges and for localized exposure from certain products such as hand-held wireless telephones. Currently, the World Health

Organization is working to provide a framework for international harmonization of RF safety standards.

The NCRP, IEEE, and ICNIRP all have identified a whole-body Specific Absorption Rate

(SAR) value of 4 watts per kilogram (4 W/kg) as a threshold level of exposure at which harmful biological effects may occur. Exposure guidelines in terms of field strength, power density and localized SAR were then derived from this threshold value. In addition, the NCRP, IEEE, and ICNIRP guidelines vary depending on the frequency of the RF exposure. This is due to the finding that whole-body human absorption of RF energy varies with the frequency of the RF signal. The most restrictive limits on whole-body exposure are in the frequency range of 30-300 MHz where the human body absorbs RF energy most efficiently. For products that only expose part of the body, such as wireless phones, exposure limits in terms of SAR only are specified.

The exposure limits used by the FCC are expressed in terms of SAR, electric and magnetic field strength, and power density for transmitters operating at frequencies from 300 kHz to 100 GHz. The specific values can be found in two FCC bulletins, OET Bulletins 56 and 65:

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/info/documents/bulletins/#56;

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/info/documents/bulletins/#65

.

Why has the FCC adopted guidelines for RF exposure?

The FCC authorizes and licenses products, transmitters, and facilities that generate

RF and microwave radiation. It has jurisdiction over all transmitting services in the

U.S. except those specifically operated by the Federal Government. While the FCC does not have the expertise to determine radiation exposure guidelines on its own, it


does have the expertise and authority to recognize and adopt technically sound standards promulgated by other expert agencies and organizations, and has done so . (Our joint efforts with the FDA in developing this website is illustrative of the kind of inter-agency efforts and consultation we engage in regarding this health and safety issue.)

Under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), the FCC has certain responsibilities to consider whether its actions will significantly affect the quality of the human environment. Therefore, FCC approval and licensing of transmitters and facilities must be evaluated for significant impact on the environment. Human exposure to RF radiation emitted by FCC-regulated transmitters is one of several factors that must be considered in such environmental evaluations. In 1996, the FCC revised its guidelines for RF exposure as a result of a multi-year proceeding and as required by the Telecommunications Act of 1996.

Radio and television broadcast stations, satellite-earth stations, experimental radio stations and certain wireless communication facilities are required to undergo routine evaluation for RF compliance when they submit an application to the FCC for construction or modification of a transmitting facility or renewal of a license. Failure to comply with the FCC's RF exposure guidelines could lead to the preparation of a formal Environmental Assessment, possible Environmental Impact

Statement and eventual rejection of an application. Technical guidelines for evaluating compliance with the FCC RF safety requirements can be found in the FCC's

OET Bulletin 65. http://www.fcc.gov/oet/info/documents/bulletins/#65

Low-powered, intermittent, or inaccessible RF transmitters and facilities are normally excluded from the requirement for routine evaluation for RF exposure.

These exclusions are based on standard calculations and measurement data indicating that a transmitting station or equipment operating under the conditions prescribed is unlikely to cause exposures in excess of the guidelines under normal conditions of use. Such exclusions are not exclusions from compliance, but, rather, exclusions from routine evaluation. The FCC's policies on RF exposure and categorical exclusion can be found in Section 1.1307(b) of the FCC's Rules and

Regulations [(47 CFR 1.1307(b)].

How can I obtain the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) value for my wireless phone?

The FCC requires that wireless phones sold in the United States demonstrate compliance with human exposure limits adopted by the FCC in 1996. The relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the head of a wireless telephone-user is given by the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR), as explained above. The FCC requires wireless phones to comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg) in terms of SAR.

Information on SAR for a specific phone model can be obtained for many recently manufactured phones using the FCC identification (ID) number for that model. The

FCC ID number is usually printed somewhere on the case of the phone. Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the battery pack to find the number. Once you have the

ID number, go to the following Web address: www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid. On this page,


you will see instructions for entering the FCC ID number. Type the FCC ID number exactly as requested (the Grantee Code is the first three characters, the Equipment

Product Code is the rest of the FCC ID number). Then click on "Start Search." The

"Grant of Equipment Authorization" for your telephone should appear. Read through the grant for the section on "SAR Compliance," "Certification of Compliance with FCC

Rules for RF Exposure" or similar language. This section should contain the value(s) for typical or maximum SAR for your phone.

Phones and other products authorized since June 2, 2000, should have the maximum SAR levels noted directly on the "Grant of Equipment Authorization." For phones and products authorized between about mid-1998 and June 2000, detailed information on SAR levels is typically found in the exhibits associated with the grant.

Once a grant is accessed, the exhibits can be viewed by clicking on "View Exhibit."

Grants authorized prior to 1998 are not part of the electronic database but, rather, have been documented in the form of paper records.

The FCC database does not list phones by model number. However, consumers may find SAR information from other sources as well. Some wireless phone manufacturers make SAR information available on their own Web sites. In addition, some non-government Web sites provide SARs for specific models of wireless phones. However, the FCC has not reviewed these sites and makes no guarantees of their accuracy. Finally, phones certified by the Cellular Telecommunications and

Internet Association (CTIA) are required to provide SAR information to consumers in the instructional materials that come with the phones.

Do hands-free kits for wireless phones reduce risks from exposure to RF emissions?

Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to believe that hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free kits can be used with wireless phones for convenience and comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF energy in the head because the phone, which is the source of the RF emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand, if the phone is mounted against the waist or other part of the body during use, then that part of the body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless phones marketed in the U.S. are required to meet safety requirements regardless of whether they are used against the head or against the body. Either configuration should result in compliance with the safety limit.

Do wireless phone accessories that claim to shield the head from RF radiation work?

Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to believe that accessories that claim to shield the head from those emissions reduce risks. Some products that claim to shield the user from RF absorption use special phone cases, while others involve nothing more than a metallic accessory attached to the phone. Studies have shown that these products generally do not work as advertised. Unlike "hand-free" kits, these so-called "shields" may interfere with proper operation of the phone. The phone may be forced to boost


its power to compensate, leading to an increase in RF absorption. In February 2002, the Federal trade Commission (FTC) charged two companies that sold devices that claimed to protect wireless phone users from radiation with making false and unsubstantiated claims. According to FTC, these defendants lacked a reasonable basis to substantiate their claim.

What are wireless telephone base stations?

Fixed antennas used for wireless telecommunications are referred to as cellular base stations, cell stations, PCS ("Personal Communications Service") stations or telephone transmission towers. These base stations consist of antennas and electronic equipment. Because the antennas need to be high in the air, they are often located on towers, poles, water tanks, or rooftops. Typical heights for freestanding base station towers are 50-200 feet.

Some base stations use antennas that look like poles, 10 to 15 feet in length, that are referred to as "omni-directional" antennas. These types of antennas are usually found in rural areas. In urban and suburban areas, wireless providers now more commonly use panel or sector antennas for their base stations. These antennas consist of rectangular panels, about 1 by 4 feet in dimension. The antennas are usually arranged in three groups of three antennas each. One antenna in each group is used to transmit signals to wireless phones, and the other two antennas in each group are used to receive signals from wireless phones.

At any base station site, the amount of RF energy produced depends on the number of radio channels (transmitters) per antenna and the power of each transmitter.

Typically, 21 channels per antenna sector are available. For a typical cell site using sector antennas, each of the three transmitting antennas could be connected to up to 21 transmitters for a total of 63 transmitters. However, it is unlikely that all of the transmitters would be transmitting at the same time. When omni-directional antennas are used, a cellular base station could theoretically use up to 96 transmitters, but this would be very unusual, and, once again, it is unlikely that all transmitters would be in operation simultaneously. Base stations used for PCS communications generally require fewer transmitters than those used for cellular radio transmissions, since PCS carriers usually have a higher density of base station antenna sites.

Are wireless telephone base stations safe?

The electromagnetic RF signals transmitted from base station antennas stations travel toward the horizon in relatively narrow paths. For example, the radiation pattern for an antenna array mounted on a tower can be likened to a thin pancake centered around the antenna system. The individual pattern for a single array of sector antennas is wedge-shaped, like a piece of pie. As with all forms of electromagnetic energy, the power decreases rapidly as one moves away from the antenna. Therefore, RF exposure on the ground is much less than exposure very close to the antenna and in the path of the transmitted radio signal. In fact, ground-level exposure from such antennas is typically thousands of times less than the exposure levels recommended as safe by expert organizations. So exposure to nearby residents would be well within safety margins.


Cellular and PCS base stations in the United States are required to comply with limits for exposure recommended by expert organizations and endorsed by government agencies responsible for health and safety. Measurements made near cellular and

PCS base station antennas mounted on towers have confirmed that ground-level exposures are typically thousands of times less than the exposure limits adopted by the FCC. In fact, in order to be exposed to levels at or near the FCC limits for cellular or

PCS frequencies an individual would essentially have to remain in the main transmitted radio signal (at the height of the antenna) and within a few feet from the antenna. This is, of course, very unlikely to occur.

When cellular and PCS antennas are mounted on rooftops, RF levels on that roof or on others near by would probably be greater than those typically encountered on the ground. However, exposure levels approaching or exceeding safety guidelines should be encountered only very close to or directly in front of the antennas. In addition, for sector-type antennas, typically used for such rooftop base stations, RF levels to the side and in back of these antennas are insignificant. General guidelines on antenna installations and circumstances that might give rise to a concern about an facility's conformance with FCC regulations can be found in A Local Government

Official's Guide to Transmitting Antenna RF Emission Safety: Rules, Procedures, and

Practical Guidance. This Guide can be accessed at: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety.

Who regulates exposure to radiation from microwave ovens, television sets and computer monitors?

The Food and Drug Administration is responsible for protecting the public from harmful radiation emissions from these consumer products.

Does the FCC routinely monitor radiofrequency radiation from antennas?

The FCC does not have the resources or the personnel to routinely monitor the emissions for all the thousands of transmitters that are subject to FCC jurisdiction.

However, the FCC does have measurement instrumentation for evaluating RF levels in areas that may be accessible to the public or to workers. If there is evidence for potential non-compliance with FCC exposure guidelines for a FCC-regulated facility, staff from the FCC's Office of Engineering and Technology or the FCC Enforcement

Bureau can conduct and investigation, and, if appropriate, perform actual measurements. Circumstances that could give rise to a concern about an facility's conformance with FCC regulations can be found in in A Local Government Official's

Guide to Transmitting Antenna RF Emission Safety: Rules, Procedures, and Practical

Guidance. This Guide can be accessed at: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety. Potential exposure problems should be brought to the FCC's attention by contacting the FCC

RF Safety Program at: 202-418-2464 or by email: [email protected].

Does the FCC maintain a database that includes information on the location and technical parameters of all the transmitting towers it regulates?

Each of the FCC Bureaus maintains its own licensing database system for the service(s) it regulates (e.g., television, cellular service, satellite earth stations.) The

FCC issues two types of licenses: site specific and market based. In the case of site specific licensed facilities, technical operating information is collected from the licensee as part of the licensing process. However, in the case of market based


licensing (e.g., PCS, cellular), the licensee is granted the authority to operate a radio communications system in a geographic area using as many facilities as are required, and the licensee is not required to provide the FCC with specific location and operating parameters of these facilities.

Information on site specific licensed facilities can be found the "General Menu

Reports" (GenMen) at http://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/ws.exe/genmen/index.hts.

The various FCC Bureaus also publish on at least a weekly basis, bulk extracts of their licensing databases. Each licensing database has its own unique file structure. These extracts consist of multiple, very large files. The FCC's Office of Engineering and

Technology (OET) maintains an index to these databases at

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/info/database/fadb.html

. Entry points into the various databases include frequency, state/county, latitude/longitude, call-sign and licensee name. For further information on the Commission's existing databases, you can contact Donald Campbell at [email protected] or 202-418-2405.

Can local and state governmental bodies establish limits for

RF exposure?

Although some local and state governments have enacted rules and regulations about human exposure to RF energy in the past, the Telecommunications Act of

1996 requires the Federal Government to control human exposure to RF emissions.

In particular, Section 704 of the Act states that, "No State or local government or instrumentality thereof may regulate the placement, construction, and modification of personal wireless service facilities on the basis of the environmental effects of radio frequency emissions to the extent that such facilities comply with the Commission's regulations concerning such emissions." Further information on federal authority and FCC policy is available in a fact sheet from the FCC's Wireless

Telecommunications Bureau at www.fcc.gov/wtb.

Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?

The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using wireless phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low levels of RF when in the stand-by mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects may occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. In some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in reproducing those studies, or in determining the reasons for inconsistent results.

What is FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless phones?

Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting consumer products such as wireless phones before they can be sold, as it does with new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has authority to take action if wireless phones are shown to emit radiofrequency energy (RF) at a level that is hazardous to


the user. In such a case, FDA could require the manufacturers of wireless phones to notify users of the health hazard and to repair, replace or recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.

Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions, FDA has urged the wireless phone industry to take a number of steps, including the following:

䡲

Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type emitted by wireless phones;

䡲 Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not necessary for device function; and

䡲

Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best possible information on possible effects of wireless phone use on human health

FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that have responsibility for different aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the federal level. The following agencies belong to this working group:

䡲

National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health

䡲 Environmental Protection Agency

䡲

Federal Communications Commission

䡲 Occupational Safety and Health Administration

䡲

National Telecommunications and Information Administration

The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency working group activities, as well.

FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF exposure. FCC relies on FDA and other health agencies for safety questions about wireless phones.

FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networks rely upon.

While these base stations operate at higher power than do the wireless phones themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these base stations are typically thousands of times lower than those they can get from wireless phones.

Base stations are thus not the primary subject of the safety questions discussed in this document.

What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?

The term "wireless phone" refers here to hand-held wireless phones with built-in antennas, often called "cell," "mobile," or "PCS" phones. These types of wireless phones can expose the user to measurable radiofrequency energy (RF) because of the short distance between the phone and the user's head. These RF exposures are limited by Federal Communications Commission safety guidelines that were developed with the advice of FDA and other federal health and safety agencies.

When the phone is located at greater distances from the user, the exposure to RF is drastically lower because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly with increasing distance from the source. The so-called "cordless phones," which have a base unit


connected to the telephone wiring in a house, typically operate at far lower power levels, and thus produce RF exposures well within the FCC's compliance limits.

What are the results of the research done already?

The research done thus far has produced conflicting results, and many studies have suffered from flaws in their research methods. Animal experiments investigating the effects of radiofrequency energy (RF) exposures characteristic of wireless phones have yielded conflicting results that often cannot be repeated in other laboratories.

A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer in laboratory animals. However, many of the studies that showed increased tumor development used animals that had been genetically engineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to develop cancer in the absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the animals to

RF for up to 22 hours per day. These conditions are not similar to the conditions under which people use wireless phones, so we don't know with certainty what the results of such studies mean for human health.

Three large epidemiology studies have been published since December 2000.

Between them, the studies investigated any possible association between the use of wireless phones and primary brain cancer, glioma, meningioma, or acoustic neuroma, tumors of the brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of the studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful health effects from wireless phone RF exposures. However, none of the studies can answer questions about long-term exposures, since the average period of phone use in these studies was around three years.

What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless phones poses a health risk?

A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually using wireless phones would provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetime animal exposure studies could be completed in a few years. However, very large numbers of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer promoting effect if one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide data that is directly applicable to human populations, but 10 or more years' follow-up may be needed to provide answers about some health effects, such as cancer. This is because the interval between the time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the time tumors develop - if they do - may be many, many years. The interpretation of epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in measuring actual RF exposure during day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many factors affect this measurement, such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which model of phone is used.

What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of wireless phone RF?

FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology Program and with groups of investigators around the world to ensure that high priority animal studies are conducted to address important questions about the effects of exposure to radiofrequency energy (RF).


FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organization International

Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its inception in 1996. An influential result of this work has been the development of a detailed agenda of research needs that has driven the establishment of new research programs around the world. The Project has also helped develop a series of public information documents on EMF issues.

FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) have a formal Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) to do research on wireless phone safety. FDA provides the scientific oversight, obtaining input from experts in government, industry, and academic organizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted through contracts to independent investigators. The initial research will include both laboratory studies and studies of wireless phone users. The CRADA will also include a broad assessment of additional research needs in the context of the latest research developments around the world.

What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to radiofrequency energy from my wireless phone?

If there is a risk from these products--and at this point we do not know that there is-it is probably very small. But if you are concerned about avoiding even potential risks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize your exposure to radiofrequency energy

(RF). Since time is a key factor in how much exposure a person receives, reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless phone will reduce RF exposure.

䡲 If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless phone every day, you could place more distance between your body and the source of the RF, since the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, you could use a headset and carry the wireless phone away from your body or use a wireless phone connected to a remote antenna.

Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that wireless phones are harmful. But if you are concerned about the RF exposure from these products, you can use measures like those described above to reduce your RF exposure from wireless phone use.

What about children using wireless phones?

The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones, including children and teenagers. If you want to take steps to lower exposure to radiofrequency energy (RF), the measures described above would apply to children and teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing the time of wireless phone use and increasing the distance between the user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure.

Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For example, the government in the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation in

December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists that using a wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists.


What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment?

Radiofrequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can interact with some electronic devices. For this reason, FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure electromagnetic interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless telephones. This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by the Association for the Advancement of Medical instrumentation

(AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by FDA, medical device manufacturers, and many other groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will allow manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from wireless phone EMI.

FDA has tested hearing aids for interference from handheld wireless phones and helped develop a voluntary standard sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and

Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This standard specifies test methods and performance requirements for hearing aids and wireless phones so that that no interference occurs when a person uses a "compatible" phone and a "compatible" hearing aid at the same time. This standard was approved by the IEEE in 2000.

FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for possible interactions with other medical devices. Should harmful interference be found to occur, FDA will conduct testing to assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.

Which other federal agencies have responsibilities related to potential RF health effects?

Certain agencies in the Federal Government have been involved in monitoring, researching or regulating issues related to human exposure to RF radiation. These agencies include the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), the National

Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and the Department of

Defense (DOD).

By authority of the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968, the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the FDA develops performance standards for the emission of radiation from electronic products including X-ray equipment, other medical devices, television sets, microwave ovens, laser products and sunlamps. The CDRH established a product performance standard for microwave ovens in 1971 limiting the amount of RF leakage from ovens. However, the CDRH has not adopted performance standards for other RF-emitting products.

The FDA is, however, the lead federal health agency in monitoring the latest research developments and advising other agencies with respect to the safety of RF-emitting products used by the public, such as cellular and PCS phones.

The FDA's microwave oven standard is an emission standard (as opposed to an exposure standard) that allows specific levels of microwave leakage (measured at five centimeters from the oven surface). The standard also requires ovens to have two independent interlock systems that prevent the oven from generating microwaves the moment that the latch is released or the door of the oven is opened.

The FDA has stated that ovens that meet its standards and are used according to the


manufacturer's recommendations are safe for consumer and industrial use. More information is available from: www.fda.gov/cdrh.

The EPA has, in the past, considered developing federal guidelines for public exposure to RF radiation. However, EPA activities related to RF safety and health are presently limited to advisory functions. For example, the EPA now chairs an

Inter-agency Radiofrequency Working Group, which coordinates RF health-related activities among the various federal agencies with health or regulatory responsibilities in this area.

OSHA is responsible for protecting workers from exposure to hazardous chemical and physical agents. In 1971, OSHA issued a protection guide for exposure of workers to RF radiation [29 CFR 1910.97]. However, this guide was later ruled to be only advisory and not mandatory. Moreover, it was based on an earlier RF exposure standard that has now been revised. At the present time, OSHA uses the IEEE and/or

FCC exposure guidelines for enforcement purposes under OSHA's "general duty clause" (for more information see: http://www.osha-

slc.gov/SLTC/radiofrequencyradiation/index.html.

NIOSH is part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It conducts research and investigations into issues related to occupational exposure to chemical and physical agents. NIOSH has, in the past, undertaken to develop RF exposure guidelines for workers, but final guidelines were never adopted by the agency.

NIOSH conducts safety-related RF studies through its Physical Agents Effects Branch in Cincinnati,Ohio.

The NTIA is an agency of the U.S. Department of Commerce and is responsible for authorizing Federal Government use of the RF electromagnetic spectrum. Like the

FCC, the NTIA also has NEPA responsibilities and has considered adopting guidelines for evaluating RF exposure from U.S. Government transmitters such as radar and military facilities.

The Department of Defense (DOD) has conducted research on the biological effects of RF energy for a number of years. This research is now conducted primarily at the

U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory located at Brooks Air Force Base, Texas. The DOD

Web site for RF biological effects information is listed with other sites in conjunction with a question on other sources of information, below.

Who funds and carries out research on the biological effects of RF energy?

Research into possible biological effects of RF energy is carried out in laboratories in the United States and around the world. In the U.S., most research has been funded by the Department of Defense, due to the extensive military use of RF equipment such as radar and high-powered radio transmitters. In addition, some federal agencies responsible for health and safety, such as the Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), have sponsored and conducted research in this area. At the present time, most of the non-military research on biological effects of RF energy in the U.S. is being funded by industry organizations. More research is being carried out overseas, particularly in Europe.

In 1996, the World Health Organization (WHO) established the International EMF

Project to review the scientific literature and work towards resolution of health


concerns over the use of RF technology. WHO maintains a Web site that provides extensive information on this project and about RF biological effects and research

(www.who.ch/peh-emf).

FDA, EPA and other US government agencies responsible for public health and safety have worked together and in connection with WHO to monitor developments and identify research needs related to RF biological effects.

How does FCC Audit Cell Phone RF?

After FCC grants permission for a particular cellular telephone to be marketed, FCC will occasionally conduct "post-grant" testing to determine whether production versions of the phone are being produced to conform with FCC regulatory requirements. The manufacturer of a cell phone that does not meet FCC's regulatory requirements may be required to remove the cell phone from use and to refund the purchase price or provide a replacement phone, and may be subject to civil or criminal penalties. In addition, if the cell phone presents a risk of injury to the user,

FDA may also take regulatory action. The most important post-grant test, from a consumer's perspective, is testing of the RF emissions of the phone. FCC measures the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of the phone, following a very rigorous testing protocol. As is true for nearly any scientific measurement, there is a possibility that the test measurement may be less than or greater than the actual RF emitted by the phone. This difference between the RF test measurement and actual RF emission is because test measurements are limited by instrument accuracy, because test measurement and actual use environments are different, and other variable factors.

This inherent variability is known as "measurement uncertainty." When FCC conducts post-grant testing of a cell phone, FCC takes into account any measurement uncertainty to when determining whether regulatory action is appropriate. This approach ensures that when FCC takes regulatory action, it will have a sound, defensible scientific basis.

FDA scientific staff reviewed the methodology used by FCC to measure cell phone RF, and agreed it is an acceptable approach, given our current understanding of the risks presented by cellular phone RF emissions. RF emissions from cellular phones have not been shown to present a risk of injury to the user when the measured SAR is less than the safety limits set by FCC (an SAR of 1.6 w/kg). Even in a case where the maximum measurement uncertainty permitted by current measurement standards was added to the maximum permissible SAR, the resulting SAR value would be well below any level known to produce an acute effect. Consequently, FCC's approach with measurement uncertainty will not result in consumers being exposed to any known risk from the RF emitted by cellular telephones.

FDA will continue to monitor studies and literature reports concerning acute effects of cell phone RF, and concerning chronic effects of long-term exposure to cellular telephone RF (that is, the risks from using a cell phone for many years). If new information leads FDA to believe that a change to FCC's measurement policy may be appropriate, FDA will contact FCC and both agencies will work together to develop a mutually-acceptable approach.

If you transfer your number away from us, the terms of this Agreement (e.g., Early Termination Fee, etc.) still apply. If a transfer to Sprint is not successful, you will be responsible for any discounts provided to you with the purchase of your device. See our printed in-store materials or visit www.sprint.com for additional important information on number transfers.

Coverage.

Available coverage areas for Services are generally identified in our mapping brochures and at www.sprint.com. This may include coverage on our digital network (the

“Nationwide Sprint PCS Network”) as well as coverage we make available to you through agreements with other carriers (“off network”or “roaming”coverage).

All coverage maps are high level representations of outdoor coverage and there are gaps in coverage within areas shown as covered on the maps. Coverage is not available everywhere, nor can we guarantee you will receive coverage at all times, or without interruptions or delays (e.g., dropped calls, blocked calls, etc.) in the coverage areas we identify. Actual coverage and quality of Services may be affected by conditions within or beyond our control, including network problems, software, signal strength, your equipment, structures (including buildings in which you may be located), atmospheric, geographic, or topographic conditions.


Roaming Coverage.

You are roaming anytime your phone indicates that you are roaming. Roaming coverage is only available with certain devices and, unless included as part of your Services, will result in additional charges. Roaming calls placed “manually”

(through an operator or with a credit card) will always incur separate and additional charges. Depending on your phone settings, you may automatically roam if there is a gap or interruption in coverage within the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network coverage area and roaming coverage areas. See your phone guide for how to adjust phone settings. Certain features and services may not be available in roaming coverage areas (including Sprint PCS

Vision, voicemail, call waiting, call forwarding, etc.).

Charges.

Carefully review the terms of your Services. You will be assessed charges based on the terms of your Services including, without limitation, monthly recurring charges and charges based on actual usage (e.g., charges for long distance, roaming, call forwarding, directory assistance, etc.). Airtime and other time based usage charges are calculated from when your device first initiates contact with a network until the network connection is broken, whether or not you were actually successful in connecting to the intended destination. However, you will not be charged for voice calls that ring and do not pick up, or if you get a busy signal. For voice calls received by your device, you are charged from the time shortly before the phone starts ringing until the call is terminated. You are charged for an entire voice call based on the time period in which the call is initiated. Partial minutes of use are rounded up to the next minute.

Sprint PCS Vision Charges.

Vision usage is measured in bytes, not in minutes. Bytes are rounded up to kilobytes. Usage rounding occurs at the top of each clock hour while in a session and at the end of each session and is then charged to you based on the terms of your Services. Depending on your Services, usage may be charged against an allowance or on a fixed price per kilobyte. Usage charges may be rounded up to the next cent at monthly or other intervals. In certain instances, you may not know that your session has not ended.

As long as your device is connected to our network, you will incur data usage charges. You will be charged for all data directed to the internet address (or “IP address”) assigned to your device, regardless of who initiates the activity or whether your device actually receives the data. This includes, but is not limited to, the amount of data associated with the particular information/item (e.g. game, ringer, email, etc.), additional data used in accessing, transporting and routing this information/item on our network, data from partial or interrupted downloads, re-sent data, and data associated with unsuccessful attempts to reach websites or use applications. Based on these and a number of other factors (e.g., the specific application, network performance, etc.) data used and charged to you will vary widely, even for the same activity. Estimates of data usage – for example, the size of downloadable files – will not be accurate or a reliable predictor of actual usage. Your invoice will not separately identify the number of kilobytes attributable to your use of specific sites, sessions or services.

Taxes and Surcharges.

We invoice you for taxes, fees and other charges levied by or remitted directly to federal, state, local or foreign governments including, without limitation, sales, gross receipts, Universal Service, use, and excise taxes. If you claim any tax exemption, you must provide us with a valid tax-exempt document. Tax exemptions are not applied retroactively. We also invoice you for surcharges that we collect and keep to pay for the costs of complying with government programs such as number pooling and portability, and Enhanced 911 service; these charges are not the taxes nor government imposed assessments.

Invoicing & Payment.

Invoicing cycles and dates may change from time to time.

Monthly recurring and related charges for Services are generally invoiced one invoicing cycle in advance. Other charges are invoiced soon after they are incurred. Most usage is


generally applied to the invoicing cycle in which they are incurred, but in some instances may be applied to subsequent invoicing cycles. You are responsible for all charges associated with any device activated on your account, regardless of who used the device.

You must pay all charges by the due date on the invoice.

Past due amounts accrue late charges until paid at the rate of 5% per month or at the highest rate allowed by law and may result in immediate suspension of your account.

If you agree to any auto-payment option through banking or credit account, we may initiate payment from the account for all amounts we invoice you without additional authorization or notice.

Based on your credit or payment history, we may require certain forms of guaranteed payment as a condition of maintaining Services. If we invoice you for amounts on behalf of a third-party, payments received are first applied to amounts due to us. You may be charged additional fees for certain methods of payment and for payments denied by a financial institution. Acceptance of payments (even if marked “paid in full”) does not waive our right to collect all amounts that you owe us.

Disputed Charges.

Disputes concerning any charges invoiced must be raised within 60 days of the date of the invoice. You accept all charges not disputed in this time period.

Disputes can only be made by calling or writing us as directed on your invoice.

Account Spending Limit & Deposits.

We may impose an account spending limit (“ASL”) on any account without notice. We will notify you of an ASL based on your credit or payment history and may reduce the ASL at any time with prior notice. An ASL should not be relied on to manage usage on your account. We may suspend an account without prior notice when the account balance reaches the ASL, even if the account is not past due.

Services can be restored upon payment of an amount that brings the account balance below the ASL and any past due amounts. If we require a deposit for you to establish or maintain an account, we will hold the deposit as partial guarantee of payment for Services.

We may change the deposit amount at any time with notice for good reason. Except as we allow, a deposit may not be used to pay any invoice or delay payment. The deposit amount, the length of time we hold the deposit and changes to the deposit amount are determined based on your credit and payment history. The rate of interest, if any, on the deposit is subject to change. We may mix deposits with our other funds. If your account is terminated for any reason, we may without notice apply your deposit to any outstanding charges. We may send any remaining deposit amounts to your last known address within 75 days after account termination. If the funds are returned to us, you may claim these funds for one year from the date of return. Any money held during this one-year period will not accrue interest for your benefit and are subject to a servicing fee charged against the balance. You forfeit any portion of the money left after the one-year period.

Other Sprint PCS Vision Terms.

You will not receive voice calls while using Vision. Vision is not available for use with server devices or host computer applications, other systems that drive continuous heavy traffic or data sessions, or as substitutes for private lines or frame relay connections. Unlimited Vision plans/options may not be used with Sprint PCS phones or smart phones being used as a modem in connection with other equipment (e.g., computers, etc.) through use of connection kits or other phone-to-computer/PDA accessories, or Bluetooth or other wireless technology. We may terminate services without notice for any misuse. You may have access to certain games, ringers, screen savers and other items on our Vision site (“Premium Services”) that are available for an additional charge. You will be billed for Premium Service purchases on your Sprint PCS invoice based on the charges as specified at purchase. Subject to the terms of the content purchased, we may delete premium and non-premium items downloaded to any storage areas we may provide, including any pictures, games and other content. We may limit the amount of


Premium Services you may purchase in a specific timeframe (month, week, day, or other time period).

Voice Command.

Calls to 911 or similar emergency numbers cannot be placed through the Voice Command feature. See our printed in-store materials or visit www.sprint.com for additional important information on this option.

Wireless Web.

Wireless Web Services may be available depending on your device and

Service plan/option. This is not a Vision service. Usage is calculated on minutes used and generally deducts from your Service plan minutes. See our printed in-store materials or visit www.sprint.com for additional important information on this option.

Lost or Stolen Equipment.

If your device is lost or stolen, please notify us immediately by calling 1-888-211-4PCS.

You are responsible for all charges incurred before you notify us of the loss or theft.

You agree to cooperate reasonably with us in investigating suspected unlawful or fraudulent use.

Messaging.

You may incur charges in accessing, sending or receiving messages on your device. We may impose limits on the number of voicemail, text, email or other messages that can be retained through your account. Indicators of messages on your device, including mailbox icons, may not always provide an up to date indication of new messages and you may at times need to manually reset or clear your mailbox indicator. Legitimate messages may be interrupted by software aimed at prevention of SPAM or similar messages.

Caller ID.

If you do not want people you call to receive the number assigned to your phone, call us at 1-888-211-4PCS for information about automatic Caller ID blocking. The number assigned to your phone can be blocked on a per-call basis by dialing *67 + Destination

Number + TALK (or similar key). Caller ID blocking is not available when using Vision or

Wireless Web services.

TTY Access.

A TTY (also known as TDD or TextTelephone) 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. TTY doesn't work with all devices. If you have a

TTY-capable device, it may not function effectively, or at all, when attempting 911 calls and should not be relied on for such calls.

Disclaimer of Warranties.

WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OF WARRANTIES, EXPRESS

OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING (TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF

MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE CONCERNING YOUR SERVICES

OR WIRELESS DEVICE. WE DO NOT PROMISE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE SERVICES

AND YOU AGREE TO HOLD US HARMLESS FOR ALL SUCH PROBLEMS.

Limitation of Liability.

Neither we nor our vendors, suppliers or licensors are liable for any damages arising out of or in connection with any: (a) act or omission by your, or another person or company; (b) providing or failing to provide Services, including deficiencies or problems with your wireless device, our network coverage or Services

(e.g., dropped, blocked, interrupted calls/messages, etc.); (c) traffic or other accidents, or any health-related claims allegedly arising from the use of Services, any wireless devices or related accessories; (d) content or information accessed while using our Services, such as through the internet; (e) interruption or failure in accessing or attempting to access emergency services from your phone, including through 911, E911 or otherwise; or (f) events due to factors beyond our control, including acts of God (including, without limitation, weather-related phenomena, fire or earthquake), war, riot, strike, or orders of governmental authority.

In the event we are found to be responsible to you for monetary damages relating to the Services (including wireless devices), you


agree that any such damages will not exceed the pro-rated monthly recurring charge for your Services during the affected period.

NO CONSEQUENTIAL OR OTHER DAMAGES.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ARE WE

LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OF ANY

NATURE WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH PROVIDING OR FAILING

TO PROVIDE SERVICES, PHONES OR OTHER EQUIPMENT USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE

SERVICES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS, OR COST

OF REPLACEMENT PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. THIS SECTION SURVIVES TERMINATION OF

THIS AGREEMENT.

MANDATORY ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES.

INSTEAD OF SUING IN COURT, YOU AND

SPRINT AGREE TO ARBITRATE ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, CONTROVERSIES OR DISPUTES

AGAINST EACH OTHER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING,

WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE SERVICES, ANY PHONES/EQUIPMENT, OR ADVERTISING, EVEN

IF IT ARISES AFTER YOUR SERVICES HAVE TERMINATED, AND INCLUDING CLAIMS YOU MAY

BRING AGAINST SPRINT'S EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVES,

OR THAT SPRINT MAY BRING AGAINST YOU (“CLAIMS”). THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT

APPLIES TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ITS PROVISIONS, NOT STATE LAW, GOVERN ALL

QUESTIONS OF WHETHER A CLAIM IS SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION. THIS PROVISION DOES

NOT PREVENT EITHER YOU OR SPRINT FROM BRINGING APPROPRIATE CLAIMS IN SMALL

CLAIMS COURT, BEFORE THE FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION OR A STATE

PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION.

YOU AND SPRINT FURTHER AGREE THAT NEITHER SPRINT NOR YOU WILL JOIN ANY CLAIM

WITH THE CLAIM OF ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY IN A LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION OR

OTHER PROCEEDING; THAT NO CLAIM EITHER SPRINT OR YOU HAS AGAINST THE OTHER

SHALL BE RESOLVED ON A CLASS-WIDE BASIS; AND THAT NEITHER SPRINT NOR YOU WILL

ASSERT A CLAIM IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF ANYONE ELSE. IF FOR ANY

REASON THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION DOES NOT APPLY TO A CLAIM, WE AGREE TO WAIVE

TRIAL BY JURY.

A single arbitrator engaged in the practice of law will conduct the arbitration. The arbitration will be filed with and the arbitrator will be selected according to the rules of either JAMS or the National Arbitration Forum (“NAF”), or, alternatively, as we may mutually agree. We agree to act in good faith in selecting an arbitrator. The arbitration will be conducted by and under the then-applicable rules of JAMS or NAF, wherever the arbitration is filed or, if the arbitrator is chosen by mutual agreement of the parties, the then-applicable rules of JAMS will apply unless the parties agree otherwise. All expedited procedures prescribed by the applicable rules will apply. We agree to pay our respective arbitration costs, except as otherwise required by rules of JAMS or NAF, as applicable, but the arbitrator can apportion these costs as appropriate. The arbitrator's decision and award is final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court with jurisdiction.

If any party files a judicial or administrative action asserting a claim that is subject to arbitration and another party successfully stays such action or compels arbitration, the party filing that action must pay the other party's costs and expenses incurred in seeking such stay or compelling arbitration, including attorneys' fees.

If any portion of this Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes section is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Section remains in full force and effect.

Miscellaneous.

You may notify us by calling us at 1-888-211-4PCS, or use that number to get our current address for written notice. We may send you notice to your last known address in our invoicing records, or by calling leaving you a voice message on your wireless


device or home phone. Properly addressed written notice is effective three days after deposit in the U.S. mail, postage prepaid. This Agreement is governed by and must be construed under federal law and the laws of the State of Kansas, without regard to choice of law principles. If either of us waives or fails to enforce any requirement under this

Agreement in any one instance, that does not waive our right to later enforce that requirement. If any part of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, the rest of this

Agreement remains in full force and effect. Section headings are for descriptive, noninterpretive purposes only. You may not assign this Agreement to any other person or entity without our prior written approval. This Agreement (including any referenced documents and attachments) makes up the entire agreement between us and replaces all prior written or spoken agreements.

8. Privacy Statement

In order to register you as a member of the Service, we ask you to supply us with some basic information (email address, user selected Picture Mail Password, name) during the registration process and, occasionally, at other times while using the Service. All uses of your information will be in accordance with our privacy policy, as set forth in the following Privacy Policy. As this policy may be updated from time to time, a current version can be found at www.sprint.com.

PRIVACY POLICY

(a)

Sprint respects the privacy of its customers, and other individuals and businesses using the Websites owned and operated by Sprint and its Affiliates ("Sprint Websites").

This updated Privacy Policy effective October 22, 2001, is to keep you informed about the types of information collected on Sprint Websites and how the information is used and protected. The revised Privacy Policy includes information about advertisements on

Sprint Websites and access to your account information.

Sprint protects the privacy of its local, long distance and wireless customers consistent with the Federal Telecommunications Act and rules and regulations issued by the

Federal Communications Commission.

Sprint's Privacy Policy for its high speed Internet services can be accessed at:

www.sprint.com/privacypolicy/broadbandservices

.

There are two types of information that may be exchanged between the Sprint site and the user during each visit to a Sprint site. They are:

1. General technical data transmitted between your computer and the Sprint site that does not identify you personally.

2. Personally identifiable information that you voluntarily share. The types of personally identifiable information that you might share include your name, address, phone number, email address and credit card number.

(b) Anonymous Information

In order to provide you with the information and services that you look for from the

Sprint Websites, Sprint gathers certain types of information from you that are not personally identifiable. This is called anonymous information and includes:

1. The type of Internet browser you use when you visit

2. The types of computer operating system you use

3. The search engine you use to access the Sprint Websites (such as "AOL.com,"

"Yahoo.com" or "Go.com")

4. The specific Sprint Website that you visit (

sprint.com

, etc.).

The anonymous information collected is not associated with you personally or your business. Sprint uses this anonymous information in the aggregate to improve

Sprint Websites and the services we provide through those sites.

(c) Use Of Cookies

Sprint Websites may use "cookies" to collect the anonymous information described in this Privacy Policy. Cookies are bits of encrypted data that are loaded by a Sprint server onto your computer or other device when you visit a Sprint Website. The server can retrieve the cookies the next time you visit a site and use them to identify the computer as a return visitor. Sprint uses cookies to collect non-personally identifiable information and generically track usage patterns on the Sprint Websites in order to monitor activity and administer the sites. Sprint also uses information obtained from cookies to improve


Sprint Websites, and make decisions concerning advertising, product offerings and services. Most users can disable cookies from their Internet browsers, receive a warning before a cookie is placed on their computer, and erase all cookies from their computer hard drives by following the instructions provided by the browser.

(d) Advertisements On SprintWebsites

Advertising companies deliver ads on some Sprint Websites. You should be aware that when you click on these ads, the advertising companies may also deploy cookies to receive anonymous information about ad viewing by Internet users on Sprint Websites and other Websites. This information is associated with your Web browser, but cannot be associated with your name or email address without your permission. Therefore, advertising companies may know where your computer goes on the Web, but they do not know who you are unless you tell them. Sprint does not provide personally identifiable information about its customers or Sprint Website visitors to these advertising companies.

(e) Personally Identifiable Information

Sprint may ask you to provide what is often referred to as "personally identifiable information" such as your name, address, telephone number and email address when you use Sprint Websites to: purchase a service or product online, enter a contest or sweepstakes, ask to receive information, respond to a survey, register with a Sprint

Website, access your account, ask for a personalized service, request customer service online, or apply for a job. You always have the alternative of mailing or calling Sprint with the information requested if you do not wish to provide it online. Personally identifiable information provided at a Sprint Website to order Sprint services other than

Internet services will be protected in the same manner as when the information is provided by other means such as over the telephone or by mail. We protect customer information obtained from the local, long distance and wireless service customers of

Sprint consistent with federal laws governing telecommunications services and with regulations issued by the Federal Communications Commission. Sprint's Privacy Policy for its Internet services can be accessed at:

www.sprint.com/privacypolicy/broadbandservices

.

We use personally identifiable information provided at a Sprint Website in the following ways unless otherwise specified:

1. For its intended purpose (such as to complete an online order for service).

2. To provide you with information about new PCS Products and Services or products and services offered in conjunction with Sprint business partners.

(f) Disclosure To Third Parties

Sprint will not sell or disclose to outside parties any personally identifiable information obtained from a Sprint online service or the registration at a Sprint Website without your consent except under the following circumstances:

1. When required by law,

2. When disclosure is necessary to protect the safety of a customer, third party or

Sprint's property,

3. If it is required in connection with any sale or transfer of all or a portion of

Sprint's assets.

When Sprint uses agents, contractors or other companies to perform services on its behalf, Sprint will require that they protect your personally identifiable information


consistent with this Privacy Policy. Sprint may share the anonymous information described in this Privacy Policy with third parties from time-to-time.

(g) Email Communications

Email is an increasingly popular communication tool through which you and your business may communicate with Sprint. Likewise, Sprint may use email to communicate with you, respond to your email, and to tell you about new products and services. If you do not wish to receive email promotions and new products and service announcements from Sprint, please follow the instructions that appear at the end of the email communication that you receive from Sprint to have your name removed from the list.

(h) Security

Sprint utilizes several encryption methods to ensure that the data you submit on any of the Sprint Websites is secure. Through this "secure session," information that you input into a Sprint online order form will be sent and will arrive privately and unaltered at a

Sprint server. This security prohibits access to your information by other companies and

Web users.

(i) Children

Sprint does not intend to collect personally identifiable information from individuals under 18 years of age. If Sprint becomes aware that a user who is under 18 is using a

Sprint Website, Sprint will specifically instruct that individual that they are not to submit information on Sprint Websites without a parent or guardian's consent. If a child has provided Sprint with personally identifiable information without the knowledge of Sprint, a parent or guardian of the child may contact Sprint at


and Sprint will delete the child's information from our existing files.

(j) Links

Some Sprint Websites contain links to other Websites that are owned and operated by parties other than Sprint. Please be aware that this Privacy Policy does not extend to any

Websites other than those owned and controlled by Sprint.

(k) Account Information

You may always contact us at [email protected] or by telephone or mail to verify your name, address, email address, telephone number and/or billing information.

Sprint will correct any information that is inaccurate.

(l) Questions

(m) Updates

Sprint may amend this Privacy Policy from time-to- time. These changes will be posted online.

9. Usage and Storage

We and our suppliers assume no responsibility for: (1) any full or partial loss, deletion or failure to store your pictures or any other data; (2) any notice or lack of notice of such loss, deletion or failure to store your data; or (3) any correct or erroneous informing of or failure to inform user of such loss, deletion or failure to store your data. From time to time we may establish an upper limit on the size of data storage that you are permitted to use on the Service and/or an upper limit on the frequency or amount of usage that


you are permitted on the Service or related software. We may establish a reasonable period of time (for example, three months) such that if you do not use the Service at least once during such period, we may terminate the Service to you for non-use, and delete pictures and other data that you may have stored through the Service.

15. General Provisions

We may assign our rights and duties under these Terms to any third party at any time without notice to you. These Terms and the relationship between you and Sprint shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You and Sprint agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the State of California. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. The failure of Sprint to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and that the other provisions of the

Terms shall be valid and remain in full force and effect.


Customer Limited Warranty

SPRINT SPECTRUM, L.P., (Sprint) offers you a limited warranty that the enclosed subscriber unit (Product), including accessories in the product package, will be free from defects in material or workmanship as follows:

1. SUBSCRIBER UNIT

A. SPRINT ONE (1) YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY. For a period of one (1) year from the date of purchase, Sprint will, at its option, either pay the parts and labor charges to any authorized PCS Phone service facility to repair or replace a defective Product (with new or rebuilt parts/replacements). After this one (1) year period, you must pay all parts, shipping and labor charges.

B. REPAIRS: For a period equal to the remainder of the original limited warranty period on an original Product or for the 180 days after the date of repair/replacement, whichever is longer, Sprint will repair or replace (with new or rebuilt replacements) defective parts or Product used in the repair or replacement of the original Product under this Limited Warranty.

Proof of purchase in the form of a bill of sale or receipted invoice or warranty repair document which is evidence that the Product is within the warranty period 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

Products. Transfer or resale of a Product will automatically terminate warranty coverage with respect to the Products.

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 used with accessories not supplied by Sprint), abuse, accident, physical damage, abnormal operation, improper handling and 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, removal or reinstallation; (viii) signal reception problems (unless caused by defect in material


and workmanship): (ix) damage as the result of fire, flood, acts of God or other acts which are not the fault of Sprint and which the Product is not specified to tolerate, including damage caused by mishandling and blown fuses; (x) consumables (such as fuses); or (xi) any Products which have been opened, repaired, modified or altered by anyone other than Sprint or a PCS Authorized Service Center.

This warranty does not cover customer education, instruction, installation, set up adjustments, or signal reception problems.

This warranty is valid only in the United States.

USE WITH ACCESSORIES NOT SUPPLIED BY SPRINT OR OTHERWISE NOT EXPRESSLY

AUTHORIZED BY SPRINT MAY BE DANGEROUS.

SPRINT SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY, AND SHALL HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO

PROVIDE TO BUYER ANY OTHER REMEDY, FOR ANY AND ALL DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL,

GENERAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED

TO LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF SALES, LOSS OF USE OF THE PRODUCT, OR ANTICIPATED

PROFITS ARISING OUT OF USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE ANY PRODUCT (FOR EXAMPLE,

WASTED AIRTIME CHARGES DUE TO THE MALFUNCTION OF A PRODUCT), DAMAGE DUE

TO IMPROPER OPERATION OR MAINTENANCE, INSTALLATION, CONNECTION TO

IMPROPER VOLTAGE SUPPLY, OR ATTEMPTED REPAIR OF THE PRODUCT BY ANYONE

OTHER THAN A FACILITY AUTHORIZED BY SPRINT. THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER

PRODUCTS SOLD AS IS OR WITH ALL FAULTS, OR CONSUMABLES, (SUCH AS FUSES). THIS

WARRANTY DOES NOT APPLY WHEN THE MALFUNCTION RESULTS FROM USE OF THE

PRODUCT IN CONJUNCTION WITH ACCESSORIES, PRODUCTS OR ANCILLARY OR

PERIPHERAL EQUIPMENT NOT SUPPLIED BY OR EXPRESSLY AUTHORIZED FOR USE BY

SPRINT, AND WHERE IT IS DETERMINED BY SPRINT THAT THERE IS NO FAULT WITH THE

PRODUCT ITSELF.

REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT, AS PROVIDED BY THE WARRANTY, IS YOUR SOLE AND

EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR BREACH OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY. TO THE EXTENT

PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, SPRINT MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND,

EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCTS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR

AGAINST INFRINGEMENT WITHIN THE TIME PERIOD SPECIFIED IN THE LIMITED

WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ON THIS

PRODUCT IS LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE DURATION OF THIS WARRANTY.

Some States do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.

This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from State to State.
