Controlling Your Roaming Experience
Understanding Roaming
Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the Nationwide PCS Network
and whether your phone is operating in analog or digital mode. The following chart indicates
what you’ll see depending on where you’re using your phone.
LCD
Other Digital Networks
Roaming Indicator
Analog Indicator
Digital Roam
Analog Networks
Analog Roam
Tip: Remember, when you are using your phone off the Nationwide PCS Network, always dial
numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).
Note: You will pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you’re roaming on other digital networks, your call quality and security will be similar to
the quality you receive when making calls while on the Nationwide PCS Network. You may not
be able to access certain calling features.
Roaming on Analog Networks
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a similar quality provided by other
analog carriers today. Although some calling features will be unavailable, you can still make
and receive calls and access voicemail. You will experience a few differences:
You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out and dropped calls.
Some calling features, which are standard on the enhanced Nationwide PCS Network,
such as Call Waiting PCS products and services and direct international dialing, are
unavailable.
Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are roaming, you may not receive
notification until you return to the Nationwide PCS Network. While roaming, you can
periodically check your voicemail for new messages by dialing 1+areacode+your PCS
Phone Number. Press * when you hear your greeting and enter your pass code at the
prompt.
There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning) that exist with
conventional analog services today.
Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your phone for analog roaming.
33
Note: If you’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide 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 PCS Service is available, turn your phone off and on
again to reconnect to the Nationwide PCS Network.
Note: When using your phone in analog mode, the handset may feel warm. This behavior is
normal for analog operation.

Safety
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 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 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 or you can
check it yourself by pressing any key. Anytime the Power Save feature is activated, a message
displays 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 radio frequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the system handling your call
controls the power level. This power can range from 0.01 μwatts to 0.2 watts 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 than120 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).
Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak Performance
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe,
satisfactory service.
Hold the phone with the antenna up, 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. If it’s inoperable, return it to a Store or
call Customer center for service.
Note: For the best care of your phone, only authorized personnel should service your phone and
accessories. Faulty service may void the warranty.
66
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 the 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. When using your phone in the car:
Get to know your phone and its features, such as speed dial and redial.
When available, use a hands-free device.
Position your phone within easy reach.
Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or
hazardous weather conditions.
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into
traffic.
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may divert your attention from the road.
Dial 9 1 1 TALK to report serious emergencies. It’s free from your wireless phone.
Use your phone to help others in emergencies.
Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless number when necessary.
Tip: Purchase an optional Hands-Free Car Kit.
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 and entertainment systems
in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its 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.
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 off your phone when in a blasting area or in other
areas with signs indicating that two-way radios should be turned off. Construction crews often use
67
remote-control RF devices to set off explosives. Turn off your phone when you’re in any area that has
a potentially explosive atmosphere.
Although it’s rare, your phone or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks could cause an
explosion or a 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 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 PCS Phone is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with it because they could hurt
themselves and others, damage the phone or make calls that increase your phone bill.
Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance.
Use only PCS-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 32º F to 113º
F (0º C to 45º 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: 4º F to 140º F (-20º C to 60º C)
More than one month: 4º F to 113º F (-20º C to 45º C)
Disposal of Lithium Ion (LiIon) Batteries
For safe disposal options of your LiIon batteries, contact your nearest PCS-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.
68
Acknowledging Special Precautions and the FCC Notice
FCC Notice
The 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 (such as propane or butane) must comply with the National
Fire Protection Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the National Fire
Protection Association, One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA02269, Attn: Publication Sales Division.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
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
voids 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 requirements, Body-worn operations are restricted
to belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that have no metallic component in the assembly and
that provide at least 1.9 cm separation between the device, including its antenna whether extended
or retracted, and the user’s body. Use of non-recommended accessories may violate FCC RF exposure
requirements.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov.
Specific Absorption Rate (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 that 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
69
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 SCP-200 are:
AMPS/CDMA modes (Part 22) - Head: 1.360 W/kg; Body-worn: 1.050 W/kg
PCS CDMA mode (Part 24) - Head: 1.180 W/kg; Body-worn: 1.120 W/kg
