If your phone is not activated, please refer to the Welcome to
Sprint brochure included with your phone.

To unlock your phone, follow these easy steps:
1.
Press to turn the phone on.
2.
Press Unlock (left softkey).
Note: To select a softkey, press the softkey button directly below the softkey text that appears at the bottom left and bottom right of your phone’s display screen. Softkey actions change according to the screen you’re viewing and will not appear if there is no corresponding action available.
3.
Enter your four-digit lock code. (For security purposes, the code is not visible as you type.)
Tip: If you can’t recall your lock code, try using the last four digits of either your Social Security number or Sprint PCS Phone number or try 0000 or NATL (6285). If none of these work, call Sprint Customer Service at:
1-888-211-4PCS (4727).

Battery Capacity
Your Sprint 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 up to 3.5 hours of continuous digital talk time (up to 2 hours in analog).
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon blinks. When there are approximately 5 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.

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

Controlling Your Roaming Experience
In This Section
⽧ Understanding Roaming
⽧ Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
⽧ Controlling Roaming Charges 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/trimode Multimedia Phone MM-8300 by Sanyo 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 93
94
Understanding Roaming
Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Any time you are roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ). If you are roaming on a digital system, the roaming icon will display along with the text Digital Roam, and on an analog system, with the text 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.
Note: Sprint PCS Ready Link Service is not available in roaming areas.
Note: If you’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network and enter an area where roaming is available , 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.
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience
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
䢇
䢇
You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out, and dropped calls.
Some features which are standard on the Nationwide
Sprint PCS Network, such as call waiting, Sprint PCS Vision,
Sprint PCS Ready Link, and direct international dialing, are unavailable.
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
䢇
䢇
There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning) that exist with conventional analog services today.
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: When using your phone in analog mode, the phone may feel warm.
This is normal for analog operation.
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 95
Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming
When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS
Network, you may 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
Shift
.
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.
96 Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience
Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
Your Sprint PCS Phone allows you to control your roaming capabilities. By using the Roaming menu option, you can determine which signals your phone accepts.

䡲 Roaming Only forces the phone to seek a roaming system. The previous setting (Sprint Only or
Automatic) is restored the next time the phone is turned on.
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 97
98
Controlling Roaming Charges Using
Call Guard
Your phone has two ways of alerting you when you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network: the onscreen roaming icon and Call Guard. Call Guard makes it easy to manage your roaming charges by requiring an extra step before you can place or answer a roaming call.

Multimedia Service lets you access high-quality video and audio clips provided by external sources. Video Mail lets you capture, upload and share videos that you personally create with your phone’s built-in camcorder.
2.
How am I charged for Multimedia Service?
It depends on whether you sign up for a Sprint PCS
Vision Plan. Please see the following options below:
䡲 With any Sprint PCS Vision Plan (other than the
SprintTV Vision Plan), you can play an unlimited number of video/audio clips on your phone’s display as long as you’ve subscribed to a channel
(see next bullet). You also receive access to the
Previews channel as a courtesy from Sprint. It doesn’t cost you anything to play the clips, but you will need to pay a monthly fee for any channel subscriptions (see the following bullet).
䡲 In addition to complimentary access to the
Previews channel, you can subscribe to any of the channels listed in the Available Channels section of your Channel Listings for an additional monthly fee. Clips within these channels will continue to be available to you as long as you continue to pay your monthly channel subscription fee.

䡲 For a monthly subscription fee, you can purchase access to a variety of other channels located in the Available Channels section of your Channel
Listings. Clips within these channels will continue to be available to you as long as you continue to pay your monthly channel subscription fee.
C. Any plan other than a Sprint PCS Vision Plan:
䡲 If you do not sign up for a Sprint PCS Vision Plan
(of any kind), your Sprint PCS Multimedia Phone still has the capability of playing audio or video clips, but you WILL be charged a fee for playing them (this includes any of the clips in the
Previews channel). The charge for playing the clip is based the clip’s size and scope, and will vary depending on the clip.

Section 2L: Using Your Phone’s Built-in Media Player
Channel, clips within the channel will continue to be available to you as long as you continue to pay your monthly channel subscription fee.
3.
Will I know if I’m receiving an incoming call while I’m viewing or listening to an audio clip?
No. All incoming calls will roll into voicemail while you are playing a clip. If the caller leaves a voicemail, the voicemail icon will appear on the screen.
4.
How long are the clips? Will I know the estimated time it will take to play the clip prior to accessing it?
Once you have selected a channel, you will see a listing of the available clips, with the clip’s length appearing after the clip’s title. In general, a clip’s duration will depend on the story or content being provided, and can be fairly short or as long as a few minutes.
5.
Can I access a multimedia clip wherever I am, as long as I have my phone?
As long as you are on the Nationwide Sprint PCS
Network, you will have access to the audio and video clips.
Note: Multimedia Service does not work while roaming off of the
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network or where service is unavailable.
6.
Are the videos that I’m viewing “live”videos?
It depends on the content provider. Some of the channels available through Sprint TV stream live content. Others provide media on demand with video and audio clips that are refreshed throughout the day, but that are not “live.”
Section 2L: Using Your Phone’s Built-in Media Player 237
7.
After purchasing access to an Available Channel for a monthly fee, do I receive any confirmation? That is, how do
I know it has been purchased?
The next time you access your media player’s Channel
Listings, the purchased channel title and corresponding number will appear in the My Channels section.
8.
Why are some channels already pre-loaded into the My
Channels section?
Some channels, such as Previews, are offered free of charge as a customer courtesy. These channels automatically appear in the My Channels section of your
Channel Listings.
9.
If I don’t subscribe to Sprint PCS Vision Plan, am I still able to view the multimedia clips?
Yes; for service access charges, please see option “C”in question 2 above.
10.
How can I easily access a channel without having to scroll through all the channels in my Channel Listings?
Each channel will have a number to the left of it. You can simply press this number to quickly access the clips located within that channel.
Tip: When entering the specific channel number, channels 01 - 09 do not require you to enter a “0.”For example, to access channel “07,”just press the
“7”key.
11.
What does it mean when the video pauses and I see the word “loading”at the bottom of the screen?
This happens when the media player is in the process of loading the data necessary to play the clip. It typically occurs when there is heavy traffic on the network.
238 Section 2L: Using Your Phone’s Built-in Media Player
12.
How can I cancel service if I decide I don’t want it?
To cancel your Multimedia Service, visit www.sprintpcs.com
and sign on to My PCS with your account number and password. From this page you have the ability to cancel the service and/or any Available
Channels to which you subscribe.
13.
If I place my stereo headphones on and insert them into the phone’s headset jack, can I close the flip while I am playing an audio (or video) clip without interrupting the clip?
Yes. When you insert your stereo headset into the phone’s headset jack, the phone automatically goes into
“headset mode,”allowing you to close the flip and continue playing the clip (likewise, if your phone is in
“headset mode,”a phone call will not become disconnected by closing the flip).
14.
Can I surf to a different channel while I am playing a clip?
Yes; while you are playing a clip, you can use the up and down navigation buttons to surf to a different channel.
A small pop-up screen will appear that tells you which channel you are watching as well as other channels you have access to. Use the navigation buttons to scroll through the different channels. Once you find a channel that you want to watch, scroll to it and press (or simply wait approximately three seconds) and the channel will begin loading.

Part of getting the most out of your Sprint PCS 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 295
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 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).
296 Section 4A: Safety
Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak Performance
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.
䢇
䢇
䢇
䢇
䢇
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.
Note: For the best care of your phone, only Sprint authorized personnel should service your phone and accessories. Faulty service may void the warranty.
Section 4A: Safety 297
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to
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.
Tip: Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local Sprint Store, or call the Sprint PCS Accessory Hotline SM at 1-800-974-2221 or by dialing
Space

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.
298 Section 4A: Safety
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.
Section 4A: Safety 299
Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance.
䢇
䢇
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.
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).
Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.
䢇
䢇
䢇
䢇
䢇
䢇
Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time.
It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.
Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:
Less than one month:
4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)
More than one month:
4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)
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.
300 Section 4A: Safety
Acknowledging Special Precautions and the FCC Notice
FCC Notice
This 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 (propane or butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the National Fire Protections 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 the antenna is at least 1.9 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

Section 4A: Safety 301
302
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 MM-8300 are:
AMPS mode (Part 22):
Head: 1.390 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.857 W/kg
PCS mode (Part 24):
Head: 1.330 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.886 W/kg
FCC Radiofrequency Emission
This phone meets the FCC Radiofrequency Emission Guidelines.
FCC ID number: AEZSCP-83H. More information on the phone’s SAR can be found from the following FCC Website: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid .
