If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching, a Power Save feature is automatically activated.

In Power Save mode, your phone searches for a signal periodically without your intervention. You can also initiate a search for Sprint PCS Service by pressing any key (when your phone is turned on).

Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger
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 5.5 hours of continuous digital talk time (up to 3 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.
Installing the Battery
To install the LiIon battery:
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.
Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Phone – The Basics
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.
Push the battery release latch up and hold the battery.
3.
Pull the battery up and out at a 45-degree angle.
Charging the Battery
Your Sprint PCS 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 currently 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 appears 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.
Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Phone – The Basics 23
Using the Charger
To use the travel charger provided with your phone:
1.
Plug the travel charger into a wall outlet.

TTY Use With Sprint PCS Service
A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a telecommunication device that allows people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to communicate by telephone.
Your phone is compatible with variety of 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 is 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
711T
. Then provide the state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: 911 Emergency Calling
Sprint recommends that TTY 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
In This Section
Understanding Roaming
Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
Using Call Guard
Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off the nationwide Sprint PCS network.
Your new RL-4930 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 103
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 (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.
104 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, Sprint PCS
Ready Link, and Sprint PCS Voice Command, may 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:
You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out, and dropped calls.
Some features which are standard on the enhanced nationwide Sprint PCS network, such as call waiting,
Sprint PCS Vision, Sprint PCS Ready Link and direct international dialing, may not be available.
Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are roaming, you may not receive notification until you return to the nationwide Sprint PCS network. (See
“Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming”on the
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 105
Checking for Voicemail MessagesWhile 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 * .
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.
106 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.

Service is unavailable, the phone searches for an alternate system.
Roaming Only seeks roaming service only (either analog or digital). The previous setting (Sprint Only or Automatic) is restored the next time the phone is turned on.
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 107
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 or access data services while roaming. (This additional step is not required when you make or receive calls while on the nationwide Sprint
PCS network.)
