Getting Started
Determining If Your Phone Is Already Activated
If you purchased your phone at a Sprint Store, it is probably
ready to use. If you received your phone in the mail, it
probably has been activated; all you need to do is unlock it. If
your phone is not activated, please call Sprint Customer
Service at 1-888-211-4PCS (4727).
Unlocking Your Phone
To unlock your phone, follow these easy steps:
1. Press and hold e to turn the phone on.
2. Press Unlock (right softkey).
3. Enter your four-digit lock code.
When you power up your phone the first time, it performs a
series of security checks. For example, it verifies the phone is
Sprint-approved and the correct SIM card is installed. If you
don’t pass the security checks, your phone displays messages
and screen prompts showing what to do next. If you still
encounter security messages, call Sprint Customer Service.
Tip: You must be in an area covered by the Nationwide Sprint PCS
Network and the Nextel National Network when you first
power up and unlock your phone.
Note: To select a softkey, press the button directly below the text
appearing on the bottom left and right of your display screen.
Softkey actions change according to screen.
Tip: If you can’t recall your lock code, try using the last four digits
of either your Social Security number or phone number. If
neither of these works, call Sprint Customer Service.

Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger
Sprint-approved and Motorola-approved batteries and
accessories can be found at Sprint Stores, through Motorola,
or by calling 1-888-211-4PCS (4727) to order. They’re also
available at www.sprint.com – just click the Accessories link.
Battery Capacity
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. It
allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained.
The battery provides X.X hours of continuous talk time.
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, your phone
makes a sound and displays a message. When there are
approximately two minutes of talk time left, the phone
sounds an audible alert and then powers down.
WARNING Use only Sprint-approved or Motorola-approved batteries
and chargers with your phone. The failure to use a Sprint-
approved or Motorola-approved battery and charger may
increase the risk that your phone overheats, catches fire,
or explodes, resulting in serious bodily injury, death, or
property damage.
Note: Long light settings, searching for service, vibrate mode,
browser use, and other variables may affect battery life.
Tip: Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and
charge the battery before it runs out of power.
You can purchase a larger battery with a longer battery life, if
needed.

Charging the Battery
Your phone’s Li-Ion 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 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 on your display screen. If the
battery charge is getting too low, the phone makes a sound
and displays a message.
Always use a Sprint-approved or Motorola-approved charger
or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.
Using the Charger
To use the charger provided with your phone:
1. Plug the charger into an electrical outlet.
2. Pull and rotate the connector cover.
3. Plug the other end of the charger into the accessory

22 Section 1B: Your Phone: The Basics
Your display screen lets you know the battery is charging.
Both the battery icon and a text message show the
charging status.
Battery Use and Maintenance
䢇Sprint-approved Li-Ion chargers provide optimum
performance. Other chargers may not charge the Li-Ion
battery, only partially charge it, or may yield a reduced
number of lifetime charge cycles
䢇Extreme temperatures degrade battery performance. Do
not store the battery where temperatures exceed 140°F
(60°C) or fall below -4°F (-20°C).
䢇Li-Ion batteries have a self-discharge rate and, without
use, lose about 1% of their charge per day.
Tip: You can also charge your phone using a Motorola-approved
USB cable and a computer that supports charging through its
USB port. You can only use a Motorola-approved USB cable.

erase a single character. Press and hold b to delete an
entire entry.)
If the word you want is not displayed after you have
entered all the letters, press the navigation key down to
scroll through other word options. A pop-up list appears
with the word options.

Making and Answering Direct Talk Calls
Direct Talk allows for two-way radio communication
“off the network” between two or more phones equipped
with this capability. This feature is very useful in areas
without network coverage.
You can make –
䢇Code calls – two-way radio calls conducted off the network
and using open channels and codes. In these calls, anyone
using your same channel and code can hear your
conversation.
䢇Private calls – two-way radio calls conducted off the
network and using the wireless phone numbers of the
participants. In these calls, others using the same channel
cannot listen in.
When using Direct Talk mode, the two phones should be a
minimum of six feet apart to maximize performance and
improve transmission range. You can only make Direct Talk
calls to users located within your range. This varies according
to terrain, man-made structures, and atmospheric conditions.
The following features are not available while in Direct Talk
mode:
䢇On-network phone calls.
䢇On-network Walkie-Talkie, Group Walkie-Talkie, Talkgroup
calls, and Call Alerts.
䢇Data Services.
䢇Sending and receiving messages.
䢇Call timer.

WARNING 911 Emergency Calling
Sprint recommends that TTY users make emergency
calls by other means, including Telecommunications
Relay Services (TRS) 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.

Roaming is the ability to make or receive phone calls when you’re

Network and allows you to roam on other networks where

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 ( ).
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 the browser or Messaging.
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 service plan includes roaming, you will pay a
higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
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 service is available, turn your phone off and on
again to reconnect to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.

About Contacts
Your phone can store up to XXX numbers or electronic
addresses. Individual Contacts entries can contain up to five
separate phone numbers, a Walkie-Talkie number, an email
address, and a Web address.
The total capacity (numbers and electronic addresses) is XXX,
meaning that if each Contacts entry has only one number or
electronic address, you have space for XXX Contacts entries.
Each number or electronic address you add to an individual
entry reduces the remaining amount of available entries. For
example, if you create 100 entries, each with three numbers
for a total of 300 numbers, you only have space remaining for
600 entries with one number (or electronic address) each.
Each Contacts entry may contain:
䢇A name — The name of the person or organization whose
contact information is stored in the entry. It is not
required; you can create and store Contacts entries
without a name.
䢇A number or electronic address — Each Contacts entry
must contain a number or an electronic address. This may
be a phone number, Walkie-Talkie number, email address,
or Web address.
䢇A speed dial number — When you store a phone number,
it is assigned a speed dial number. You can accept the
default speed dial number or change it.
䢇A ringer — You can assign a ringer to each entry. This is
the sound your phone makes when you receive a call from
any of the phone numbers stored in the entry.
