Turning Your Phone ON and OFF

Turning Your Phone On

Press to turn your phone on.

Once your phone is On, it displays “Looking for service...” which indicates that your phone is searching for a signal. When your phone finds a signal, it automatically enters standby mode – the phone’s idle state. At this point, you are ready to begin making and receiving calls.

If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching, a

Power Save feature is automatically activated. When a signal is found, your phone automatically returns to standby mode.

In Power Save mode, your phone searches for a signal periodically without your intervention. You can also initiate a search for

PCS Service by pressing any key (when your phone is turned On).

Tip:

The Power Save feature helps to conserve your battery power when you are in an area where there is no signal.

Turning Your Phone Off

Using Your Phone’s Battery

Battery Capacity

Your PCS Phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery.

It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. The battery provides approximately 3.25 hours of continuous digital talk time (1.7 hours in analog) or approximately 240 hours of continuous digital standby time (23 hours in analog).

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

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

Note:

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, PCS Ready

Link 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

Your PCS Phone comes with a LiIon battery. Follow these steps to install it:

1.

Place the battery into the space beneath the antenna with the metal contacts at the bottom, facing downward.

2.

Gently press down until it’s in place and the battery release latch snaps.

Removing the Battery

To remove your battery, follow these easy steps:

1.

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

2.

3.

Pull the battery up and out at a

45-degree angle.

Charging the Battery

Your PCS Phone comes with a rechargeable battery. You should charge the battery 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.

Warning!

Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage to your phone and void the warranty.

Using the Travel Charger

To use the travel charger provided with your phone:

1.

Plug the travel charger into a wall outlet.

2.

Plug the other end of the travel charger into the bottom of your phone (with the battery installed).

The battery icon appears on the display while charging.

The battery icon turns to when charging is complete.

Charging when your phone is turned off:

The battery icon appears, and the message “BATTERY

CHARGING-Power Off-” is shown on the display while charging. When the battery is completely discharged, you may wait for several minutes until the message is shown on

all-guides.com

, and the message changes to “CHARGING COMPLETE-Power Off-” when charging is complete.

It takes approximately 3.5 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.

Solutions via the state Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first dialing number: 866-727-4889.

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.

Experience

In This Section

Understanding Roaming

Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode

Controlling Roaming Charges Using Call Guard

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

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

PCS Phone works anywhere on the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network and allows you to roam on other 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 2: Understanding Your PCS Phone

2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 76

All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com

Understanding Roaming

Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen

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

Main LCD/Sub LCD Roaming Indicator Analog Indicator

Sprint Nationwide PCS Network

Other Digital Networks

Digital Roam

Analog Networks

Analog Roam

Tip:

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

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

Note:

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

Note:

PCS Ready Link Service is not available in roaming areas.

Section 2: Understanding Your PCS Phone

2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 77

All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com

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 PCS Vision, PCS Voice Command, and PCS Ready

Link, will be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access voicemail. You may experience the following differences:

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

Some features which are standard on the Sprint Nationwide

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

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

Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. While roaming, you can periodically check your voicemail for new messages by dialing

1+area code+your PCS Phone Number. Press when you hear your greeting and enter your passcode at the prompt.

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

Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your phone for analog roaming.

Note:

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

PCS Service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network.

Note:

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

Managing Picture Mail SM

Y our PCS Phone gives you the ability to take full-color digital pictures, view your pictures using the phone’s display, and instantly share them with your family and friends. It’s fun and as easy to use as a traditional point-and-click camera – just take a picture, view it on your phone’s display, and send it to up to ten people, right from your phone.

Your pictures may also be uploaded to a Picture Mail SM Website for storage or sent to another Website for your personal use. Picture quality is similar to what you see on your computer screen. In addition to taking pictures, you can also take, view, and send videos to your friends and family with your built-in camera.

This section explains the features and options of your phone’s built-in

PCS Vision Camera.

Getting Started With PCS Vision

With your PCS Vision Phone and PCS Service, you are ready to start enjoying the advantages of PCS Vision. This section will help you learn the basics of using your PCS Vision services, including managing your User name, launching a Vision connection, and navigating the Web with your PCS Vision Phone.

Your User Name

When you buy a PCS Vision Phone and sign up for service, you’re automatically assigned a PCS Vision User name. When you use

PCS Vision services, your User name is submitted to identify you to the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. The User name is also useful as an address for PCS Mail, as a way to personalize Web services, and as an online virtual identity.

A User name is typically based on your name and a number, followed by “@sprintpcs.com.” For example, the third John Smith to sign up for PCS Vision services might have [email protected]

as his User name. If you want a particular User name, you can visit www.sprintpcs.com

and get the name you want – as long as nobody else has it.

Note:

If you already have a PCS Mail User name, that will automatically become your PCS Vision User name.

Your User name will be automatically programmed into your

PCS Phone. You don’t have to enter it.

Updating Your User Name

When you change the programmed User name and select a new one, you have to update your User name through your PCS Phone.

To update your User name:

1.

Press to access the main menu.

2.

Select

Settings

and press .

3.

Select

PCS Vision

and press .

4.

Select

Update Profile

Navigating the Web

Navigating through menus and Websites during a PCS Vision session is easy once you’ve learned a few basics. Here are some tips for getting around:

Softkeys

During a PCS Vision session, the bottom line of your phone’s display contains one or more softkeys. These keys are shortcut controls for navigating around the Web, and they correspond to the softkey buttons directly below the phone’s display screen. Depending on which Websites you visit, the labels on the softkeys may change to indicate their function.

To use softkeys, simply press the desired softkey button. If an additional pop-up menu appears when you press the softkey button, select the menu items using your keypad (if they’re numbered) or by highlighting the option and pressing .

Getting Started With PCS Voice Command

With PCS Voice Command:

You can store all your contacts’ phone numbers, so you can simply say the name of the person you want to call.

There’s no need to punch in a lot of numbers, memorize voicemail passwords, or try to dial while you’re driving.

You can call anyone in your address book – even if you don’t remember their phone number.

It’s Easy to Get Started

Just dial from your PCS Phone to activate the service and listen to brief instructions directly from your phone. (There is a monthly charge for PCS Voice Command.)

Creating Your Own Address Book

You can program up to 500 names into your personal address book, with each name having up to five phone numbers. That’s 2,500 phone numbers – and with the advanced technology of PCS Voice

Command – you can have instant access to all of them.

There are four ways to update your address book:

Use Voice Recordings:

Simply dial and say, “Add name.”

You will then be asked to say the name and number you want to add to your personal address book. Your address book can store up to 20 voice recorded names at once.

Just say “Call operator” and we’ll add two names and numbers to your address book for our standard directory assistance charge.

Power Save feature is automatically activated. If your phone is active, it periodically rechecks service availability or you can check it yourself by pressing any key. Anytime the Power Save feature is activated, a message displays 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 0.01µ watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.

Knowing Radiofrequency Safety

The design of your PCS Phone complies with updated NCRP standards described below.

In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers

(IEEE) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI’s 1982 standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF signals. More than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies and industries developed this updated standard after reviewing the available body of research. In 1993, the Federal Communications

Commission (FCC) adopted this updated standard in a regulation. In

August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the

National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).

Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak Performance

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

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

Try not to hold, bend, or twist the phone’s antenna.

Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged.

Speak directly into the mouthpiece.

Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove the battery. If it’s inoperable, return it to a Sprint

Store or call PCS Customer Solutions SM for service.

Note:

For the best care of your phone, only Sprint authorized personnel should service your phone and accessories. Faulty service may void the warranty.

Your Phone

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS OUTLINED MAY LEAD

TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND POSSIBLE PROPERTY

DAMAGE

Using Your Phone While Driving

Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without a hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions.

Laws vary as to specific restrictions. Remember that safety always comes first.

When using your phone in the car:

Get to know your phone and its features, such as speed dial and redial.

When available, use a hands-free device.

Position your phone within easy reach.

Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions.

Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.

You may also call the PCS Accessory Hotline at 1-800-974-2221 or by dialing on your PCS Phone.

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.

Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information

4A: Safety 218

All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com

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 off your phone when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating that two-way radios should be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.

Turn off your phone when you’re in any area that has a potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks could cause an explosion or a fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. These areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include:

Fueling areas such as gas stations.

Below deck on boats.

Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.

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

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

Note:

Never transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.

Caring for the Battery

Protecting Your Battery

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

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.

In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32º F to 113º F (0º C to 45º C).

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

Never dispose of the battery by incineration.

Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.

Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.

The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time.

It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.

Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:

Less than one month:

4º F to 140º F (-20º C to 60º C)

More than one month:

4º F to 113º F (-20º C to 45º C)

Disposal of Lithium Ion (LiIon) Batteries

For safe disposal options of your LiIon batteries, contact your nearest

Sprint-authorized service center.

Special Note:

Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.

Note:

For safety, do not handle a damaged or leaking LiIon battery.

Acknowledging Special Precautions and the FCC Notice

FCC Notice

The phone may cause TV or radio interference if used in close proximity to receiving equipment. The FCC can require you to stop using the phone if such interference cannot be eliminated.

Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection Standard (NFPA-58).

For a copy of this standard, contact the National Fire Protection

Association, One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269, Attn:

Publication Sales Division.

Cautions

Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly approved in this document could void your warranty for this equipment, and void your authority to operate this equipment. Only use approved batteries, antennas and chargers. The use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the phone.

Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending or sitting on it.

Body-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 that the antenna is at least 1.9 cm from your body when transmitting. Use of non-Sprint approved accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.

For more information about RF exposure, please 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 SCP-5500 are:

AMPS/CDMA modes (Part 22) - Head: 1.250 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.933 W/kg

PCS mode (Part 24) - Head: 1.250 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.691 W/kg

FCC Radiofrequency Emission

This phone meets the FCC Radiofrequency Emission Guidelines. FCC

ID number: AEZSCP-55H. More information on the phone’s SAR can be found from the following FCC Website: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid .
