Sprint user can create a Team DC group online, which is then
pushed automatically to all the group members’phones. Once

member of the group can make a Team DC call to the entire
group. If the user who created the group makes any changes to
the group, updates are sent to the members’phones.

Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off
the Sprint National Network.Your new digital dual-band

96 Section 2E: Controlling Your Roaming Experience
Understanding Roaming
Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re
off the Sprint National Network. Any time you are roaming,
the phone displays the roaming icon ( ).
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 National Network. However, you
may not be able to access certain features, such as Sprint
Power Vision, depending on the available network.
Note If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint National Network,
your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where
you think Sprint service is available, turn your phone off and
on again to reconnect to the network.
Tip Remember, when you are using your phone off the Sprint
National Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits
(1 + area code + number).

Your phone features built-in Bluetooth technology, allowing
you to share information more easily than ever before.
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, printers,
and wireless phones. The Bluetooth communication range
is usually up to approximately 30 feet.
This section details how to set up and make the most of your
phone’s Bluetooth capabilities.

Bluetooth Profiles
All of the Bluetooth settings you configure are stored in your
phone’s Bluetooth user profile. You can use different profiles
for specific Bluetooth functions.
䢇HSP: Headset Profile – This profile functions as a wireless
ear jack. When an incoming call is received, the ringer can
be heard through the headset instead of through the
handset. The call can then be received by pushing a
button. While using the handset, you can use the headset
instead of the phone by pushing a button on the headset,
the same as inserting a jack into the phone. Increase or
decrease the volume by using the volume key on the side
of the handset.
䢇HFP: Hands-Free Profile –This profile functions as a
wireless car kit. Incoming calls ring to the hands-free
headset or device. Calls can be received by pressing a
button on the headset or device. For dialing, four
functions are supported: recent call dial, voice dial, speed
dial, and number dial. Increase or decrease the volume by
using the volume key on the side of the handset.
䢇DUN: Dial-Up Networking Profile – This profile functions as
a wireless data cable, connecting a computer or PDA to a
network through your handset.
䢇OPP: Object Push Profile – This profile uses the Generic
Object Exchange profile services to send data objects
between devices and can be used to exchange calendar
(vCal) and business cards (vCard).
䢇BPP: Basic Printing Profile –This profile enables simpler
printing from your phone to a Bluetooth-enabled printer.

likely to be used between a car kit and a mobile phone to
allow the car kit to display the name of the incoming
caller.

device enters the same PIN, the pairing is complete.)
Waiting for Request
If you are going to be using a Dial-Up Networking (DUN)
profile to pair with a computer or PDA, you will need to allow
the other device to initiate pairing with your phone.
To allow your phone to be paired with another Bluetooth device:
1. Press >Tools > Bluetooth > Add New >
Wait for Request.
2. Follow the onscreen prompts to enter your PIN and

Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to
Your Phone
Do Not Rely on Your Phone 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 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.
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 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.
Note Always turn off the phone in healthcare facilities, and request
permission before using the phone near medical equipment.
Tip Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local Sprint Store, or
call Sprint at 1-800-974-2221 or by dialing #222on your phone.
208 Section 4A: Important Safety Information
![](/img.php?id=905199&img=bgdf.png)
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.
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 invoice.
Note Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids, or
explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your
phone or accessories.

Using Your Phone 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 PRO-200 by SANYO
has an M4 and a 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 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.)
210 Section 4A: Important Safety Information
![](/img.php?id=905199&img=bge1.png)
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 phone to determine probable
usability:
䢇Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers excellent use.
䢇Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
䢇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.
SprintNextel 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 phone, promptly return it to the store within 30 days of purchase. With
the Sprint 30-day Risk-Free Guarantee, you may return the phone within 30
days of purchase for a full refund. 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 Phone
To further minimize interference:
䢇Set the phone’s Display and Keypad backlight settings to ensure the
minimum time interval:
1. Press > Settings > Display > Main Screen or Outer Screen >
Backlight.
– or –
Press > Settings> Display > Keypad Light.
2. Select the minimum time interval setting and press .
䢇Position the phone so the internal antenna is farthest from your
hearing aid.
䢇Move the phone 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.
䢇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 phone. Use only Sprint-
approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories found at
Sprint Stores or through your phone’s manufacturer, or call 1-866-343-
1114 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.
䢇In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that
range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).
䢇Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity
areas, such as the bathroom.
䢇Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
䢇Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
䢇Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
䢇The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period
of time.
䢇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.
䢇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)
212 Section 4A: Important Safety Information
![](/img.php?id=905199&img=bge3.png)
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 Phone Operates
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned
on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. When you use
your phone, the system handling your 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 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).
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 2.3 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 Web site at
www.fcc.gov.
Section 4A: Important Safety Information 213

![](/img.php?id=905199&img=bge4.png)
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 PRO-200 by SANYO®are:
Cellular CDMA mode (Part 22):
Head: 0.405 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.218 W/kg
PCS mode (Part 24):
Head: 1.210 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.544 W/kg
FCC Radio Frequency Emission
This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines.
FCC ID number: AEZSCP-PRO200.

battery has been used in equipment other than the SANYO phone for which

LOSS OF PROFITS, LOST SALES, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF USE OF THE

CHARGES DUE TO THE MALFUNCTION OF A PRODUCT). THIS
WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER PRODUCTS SOLD “AS IS” OR “WITH ALL
