available at www.sprint.com.
Battery Capacity
Your device is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion)
battery. It allows you to recharge your battery before it is
fully drained. The battery provides up to 4.6 hours of
continuous digital talk time.
When the battery level drops to 10%, the LED indicator
begins flashing red. When the battery level drops
below 5%, the battery icon changes to and a pop-
up window warns you that the battery is low. When the
battery level drops to approximately 1%, the device

any stored numbers or messages.
2. Press and hold the back cover
latch with your thumbnail and
slide the cover down with the
other thumb to remove the cover.
3. Lift the battery up and remove it
from the device.
WARNING: Use only Sprint-approved or Kyocera-approved
batteries and chargers with your device. The
failure to use a Sprint-approved or Kyocera-
approved battery and charger may increase the
risk that your device will overheat, catch fire, or
explode, resulting in serious bodily injury, death,
or property damage.
Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate
mode, browser use, and other variables may reduce
the batterys talk and standby times.
Tip: Watch your device’s battery level indicator and charge the
battery before it runs out of power.

Charging the Battery
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If
your battery level becomes too low, your device
automatically turns off, and you will lose any
information you were just working on.
Always use a Sprint-approved or Kyocera-approved
desktop charger, travel charger, or vehicle power
adapter to charge your battery.
Plug the flat end of the charger
into the device’s charger/
accessory jack and the other
end into an electrical outlet.
A solid red indicator light
means the battery is
charging.
A flashing red indicator light means the battery is
low.
A solid green indicator light means the battery is
fully charged.
With the Sprint-approved Li-Ion battery, you can
recharge the battery before it becomes completely run
down.
Tip: Hook your fingernail under the tab at the top left side of
the battery to facilitate removal.
WARNING: Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion
battery as you can be burned.
WARNING: Do not remove the battery while it is charging.
Always remove the charger from the wall outlet
first before removing the USB cable from the
device.
16 2A. Device Basics
Extending Your Battery Life
Active applications, backlight levels, and Bluetooth and
GPS use all contribute to draining your battery. The
following is a list of helpful tips that can help conserve
your batterys charge:
Reduce your backlight on time. See “Changing the
Backlight Time Length” and “Changing the Key
Backlight Time Length” on page 38.
Turn Bluetooth off when not in use. See “Turning
Bluetooth On and Off” on page 77.
Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use. See “Turning Wi-Fi On
and Off” on page 98.
Turn GPS off when not needed. Most applications
using this function will periodically query the GPS
satellites for your current location; each query drains
your battery. See “Location Settings” on page 39.
Do not wait until your battery is completely depleted
before charging your device. Repeated complete
discharging and recharging can reduce the storage
capacity of any battery over time.
Turn off Automatic application sync. See
“Synchronizing Accounts” on page 40.
Add a Power Control Widget to your Home screen to
deactivate features such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS,
and synchronization and to reduce the screen’s
brightness setting. See “Adding an Item” on page 21.
Check running services and close any unnecessary
applications. See “To view and control currently
running services:” on page 49.

About Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range communications technology
that allows you to connect wirelessly to a number of
Bluetooth devices, such as headsets and hands-free
car kits, and Bluetooth-enabled handhelds, computers,
and wireless phones. The Bluetooth communication
range is usually up to approximately 30 feet.

By default, your device’s Bluetooth feature is set to Off.
Bluetooth operates in three modes:
On: Bluetooth is turned on. Your device can detect
other Bluetooth devices but other devices cannot
detect your device.
Discoverable: Bluetooth is turned on. Your device can
detect other Bluetooth devices and other devices
can also detect your device for 120 seconds.
Off: Bluetooth is turned off. Information cannot be
sent or received when Bluetooth is turned off.
To turn Bluetooth on:
1. Touch > > Settings > Wireless & networks.
2. Touch the Bluetooth field to select the feature. (A

The Bluetooth pairing process allows you to establish
trusted connections between your device and another
Bluetooth device. When you pair devices, they share a
passkey, allowing for fast, secure connections while
bypassing the discovery and authentication process.
Note: Your device is visible for up to 120 seconds (two
minutes). This value appears as a countdown within
the Discoverable field.

Note: For car kits, enter “0000” or “1234.” If it does not work,
consult the Bluetooth devices documentation.
Due to different specifications and features of other
Bluetooth-compatible devices, display and operations
may be different, and functions such as transfer or
exchange may not be possible with all Bluetooth-
compatible devices.
Note: Pairing between two Bluetooth devices is a one-time
process. Once a pairing has been created, the devices
will continue to recognize their partnership and
exchange information without having to re-enter a
passkey again.

Wi-Fi
About Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi is a term used for certain types of wireless local
area networks (WLAN). These device types use an
802.11 wireless specification to transmit and receive
wireless data.
Wi-Fi communication requires access to an existing
and accessible Wireless Access Point (WAP). These
WAPs can either be open (unsecured) as within most
hot spots, or secured (requiring knowledge of the
router name and password).
Turning Wi-Fi On and Off
By default, your device’s Wi-Fi feature is turned off.
Turning Wi-Fi on makes your device able to discover
and connect to compatible in-range Wi-Fi networks.
To turn Wi-Fi on:
1. Touch > > Settings > Wireless & networks.
2. Touch the Wi-Fi field to activate the feature. (A
check mark indicates this feature is enabled.) The

using the phone.
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.
Avoid exposing your device and accessories to rain or liquid
spills. If your device does get wet, immediately turn the
power off and remove the battery.
Do not expose your device to direct sunlight for extended
periods of time (such as on the dashboard of a car).
Although your device is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of
equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting,
bending, or sitting on it.
Any changes or modifications to your device not expressly
approved in this document could void your warranty for this
equipment and void your authority to operate this
equipment.
4A. Important Safety
Information
Note: For the best care of your device, only Sprint-authorized
personnel should service your device and accessories. Failure
to do so may be dangerous and void your warranty.
4A. Important Safety Information 125
Important Safety Information
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access
to Your Device
Do Not Rely on Your Device for Emergency Calls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot
guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore you should
never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential
communication (e.g., medical emergencies). Emergency calls
may not be possible on all cellular networks or when certain
network services or mobile phone features are in use. Check
with your local service provider for details.
Using Your Device While Driving
Talking on your device while driving (or operating the device
without a hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions.
Laws vary as to specific restrictions. Remember that safety
always comes first.
Following Safety Guidelines
To operate your device safely and efficiently, always follow any
special regulations in a given area. Turn your device off in
areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause
interference or danger.
Using Your Device Near Other Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio
frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from wireless
phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic
equipment.
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic operating systems or entertainment
systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their
representative to determine if these systems are adequately
shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the
manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added to
your vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices,
such as pacemakers and hearing aids, to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF signals.
Turning Off Your Device Before Flying
Turn off your device 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 device while
the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference,
FCC regulations prohibit using your device while the plane is in
the air.
Tip: Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local
Sprint Store, or call Sprint at 1-866-866-7509. You can also
dial # 2 2 2 on your device.
Note: Always turn off the device in healthcare facilities, and request
permission before using the device near medical equipment.
126 4A. Important Safety Information
Turning Off Your Device in Dangerous Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your device
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 device off when you’re in any area that has a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your device
and accessories could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an
explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death. These
areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include:
Fueling areas such as gas stations.
Below deck on boats.
Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such
as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Any other area where you would normally be advised to
turn off your vehicle’s engine.
Restricting Children’s Access to Your Device
Your device is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as
they could hurt themselves and others, damage the device or
make calls that increase your Sprint invoice.
Using Your Device With a Hearing
Aid Device
A number of Sprint phones have been tested for hearing aid
device compatibility. When some wireless phones are used
with certain hearing devices (including hearing aids and
cochlear implants), users may detect a noise which can
interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing device.
Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this
interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of
interference noise they may generate. ANSI standard C63.19
was developed to provide a standardized means of measuring
both wireless phone and hearing devices to determine usability
rating categories for both.
Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist
hearing device users find phones that may be compatible with
their hearing device. Not all phones have been rated for
compatibility with hearing devices. Phones that have been
rated have a label located on the box. Your ZioTM has an M4
and T4 rating.
These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending
on the user’s hearing device and individual type and degree of
hearing loss. If a hearing device is particularly vulnerable to
interference noise; even a phone with a higher rating may still
cause unacceptable noise levels in the hearing device. Trying
Note: Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids, or
explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains
your device or accessories.
4A. Important Safety Information 127
Important Safety Information
out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to
evaluate it for your personal needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements for
hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than unrated phones. (M4 is the
better/higher of the two ratings.)
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and
are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil
(“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. (T4 is
the better/higher of the two ratings. Note that not all hearing
devices have telecoils in them.)
Hearing aid devices may also be measured for immunity to
interference noise from wireless phones and should have
ratings similar to phones. Ask your hearing healthcare
professional for the rating of your hearing aid. Add the rating of
your hearing aid and your device to determine probable
usability:
Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers
excellent use.
Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable.
Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will
have a combined rating of six for “excellent use.” This is
synonymous for T ratings.
Sprint further suggests you experiment with multiple phones
(even those not labeled M3/T3 or M4/T4) while in the store to
find the one that works best with your hearing aid device.
Should you experience interference or find the quality of
service unsatisfactory after purchasing your device, promptly
return it to the store within 30 days of purchase. (A restocking
fee may be applied to exchanges. Visit www.sprint.com/returns
for details.) More information about hearing aid compatibility
may be found at: www.fcc.gov, www.fda.gov, and
www.accesswireless.org.
Getting the Best Hearing Device
Experience With Your Device
To further minimize interference:
Set the device’s display and keypad backlight settings to
ensure the minimum time interval:
1. Touch > > Settings > Sound & display.
2. Scroll down and touch Key Backlight to select it.
3. Touch Screen timeout and then touch the minimum time
interval setting (15 seconds).
Position the device so the internal antenna is farthest from
your hearing aid.
Note: New Technologies, Including Wi-Fi
This device has been tested and rated for use with hearing
aids for some of the wireless technologies that it uses. However,
there may be newer wireless technologies (including Wi-Fi)
used in this phone that have not been tested for use with
hearing aids.
128 4A. Important Safety Information
Move the device around to find the point with least
interference.
Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your
battery’s performance.
Recently there have been some public reports of wireless
phone batteries overheating, catching fire, or exploding. It
appears that many, if not all, of these reports involve
counterfeit or inexpensive, aftermarket-brand batteries with
unknown or questionable manufacturing standards. Sprint is
not aware of similar problems with Sprint phones resulting
from the proper use of batteries and accessories approved
by Sprint or the manufacturer of your device. Use only
Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and
accessories found at Sprint Stores or through your device’s
manufacturer, or call 1-866-866-7509 to order. They’re also
available at www.sprint.com — click Accessories. Buying the
right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure
they’re genuine and safe.
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in
temperatures that range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).
Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high
humidity areas, such as the bathroom.
Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for
a long period of time.
It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides
acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of
times before it needs replacing.
Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long
periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:
Less than one month:
-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)
More than one month:
-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)
Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) Batteries
Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can
be burned.
For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries, contact your
nearest Sprint authorized service center.
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.
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Understanding How Your Device Operates
Your device is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When
it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF)
signals. When you use your device, the system handling your
4A. Important Safety Information 129
Important Safety Information
call controls the power level. This power can range from 0.006
watt to 0.2 watt in digital mode.
Knowing Radio Frequency Safety
The design of your device complies with updated NCRP
standards described below.
In 1991–92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
joined in updating ANSI’s 1982 standard for safety levels with
respect to human exposure to RF signals. More than 120
scientists, engineers and physicians from universities,
government health agencies and industries developed this
updated standard after reviewing the available body of
research. In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) adopted this updated standard in a regulation. In August
1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the
existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by
the National Council of Radiation Protection and
Measurements (NCRP).
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if
you wear a handset on your body, use a Sprint-supplied or
Sprint-approved carrying case, holster or other body-worn
accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure
the antenna is at least 0.866 inch (2.2 centimeters) from your
body when transmitting. Use of non-Sprint-approved
accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines. Other
accessories used with this device for body-worn operations
must not contain any metallic components and must provide at
least 0.866 inch (2.2 centimeters) of separation between the
antenna and the user’s body.
For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC website
at www.fcc.gov.
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless
Phones
The SAR value corresponds to the relative amount of RF
energy absorbed into 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.
130 4A. Important Safety Information
The highest reported SAR values of the ZioTM are:
Cellular CDMA mode (Part 22):
Head: 1.09 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.52 W/kg
PCS mode (Part 24):
Head: 1.41 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.47 W/kg
FCC Radio Frequency Emission
This device meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission
Guidelines.
FCC ID number: V65SCP-8600.
