Safety Information:
FCC RF Exposure Information
WARNING! Read this information before using your phone
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
of the United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to
radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated
transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety
standard previously set by both U.S. and international standards
bodies. The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines
and these international standards.
CAUTION
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality,
damage the phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations.
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result.
Please contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the
back of the phone kept 0.6 inches (1.5cm) from the body.
To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 0.6 inches (1.5cm) must be maintained
between the user’s body and the back of the phone, including the
antenna, whether extended or retracted. All belt-clips, holsters and
similar accessories used by this device must not contain any
metallic components. Body-worn accessories that do not meet
these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure limits
and should be avoided.
Note: For more information about RF exposure, please visit the
FCC website at www.fcc.gov

What they tell you
Display icons are all the graphic symbols that show up on your
display screen. In short, they tell you what’s happening with your
TM
Sprint PCS Phone . See below for a description.

Measures your current signal strength. The more
lines there are, the stronger the signal.
No Service
This means the phone is outside a service area.
When this is displayed, you cannot use your phone.
In Use
Tells you a call is in progress.
Roaming
If the icon is not displayed, you are on the
digital Sprint PCS Nationwide Network.
If it is displayed, you are on another service
provider’s network.
Messages

Indicates the vibrate feature is set to ON.
Analog
Indicates the phone is roaming on an analog cellular
network.

black you see, the more power you have left. When
the charge is low, this icon blinks and an alert tone is
sounded. You will lose what you are doing.
Using the battery
Your Sprint PCS Phone comes with a rechargeable Lithium Ion
battery. Remember to fully charge your battery as soon as the
charge becomes low in order to maximize your talk and standby
times.
Installing and removing the battery
The battery snaps easily onto the back of the phone (bottom end
first) for quick installation and removal. Make sure to turn the
power off before removing the battery. Otherwise, you could lose
stored numbers and messages.
Charging the battery
You can tell whether or not your battery needs to be recharged by
checking the upper-right corner of your display screen.
When the battery charge level gets low, the phone will beep and
will blink. A warning will also appear on your
the battery icon
screen prompting you to recharge your battery.
If the battery level gets too low, the phone will turn off
automatically. A series of alert tones will sound just before the
phone turns itself off. If this happens, unfortunately, you’ll lose
whatever you were just doing. So watch that indicator and make
sure your battery charge level is okay.
To charge your battery, you should use the standard AC adapter, or
the optional dual-slot desktop charger or cigarette lighter adapter.
Note: Use only SANYO-approved accessories.
Using unauthorized accessories may cause damage.
Charging with the AC Adapter
Use only approved adapter, with your Sprint PCS Phone.
1. Plug the AC adapter into a wall outlet.
2. Plug the other end into the bottom of your Sprint PCS Phone,
with the battery attached.

charging is complete.
When the battery is completely discharged, you may wait for
several minutes until “BATTERY CHARGING” will show on

the word possibility. The word you want may appear only after
you press all of the necessary keys.
3. If the word displayed is not the one you want, press

by pressing
. It will change as following order;
“Word” — One-character-shifted.
“WORD” — Caps Lock.
“word” — Unshifted.
Adding words to T9 database
Each word you type in Alphabet mode is automatically added to
your T9 database. If the word you want isn’t one of the T9
alternate choices, it’s quick and easy to add it.
1. Switch to Alphabet mode (use Navigation key to highlight
, and press
press
. Then highlight
and
.), then type the word using the multi-tap method.
2. Switch back to T9 (highlight
then highlight
and press
and press
.).
The word is saved automatically and will appear as a word
choice in T9 the next time you use it. You may need to press
to display the new word if other words share the same
key sequence.
10
Smart punctuation
“Smart punctuation” is available using
in T9 mode. It’s a
quick and easy way to type e-mail domains, possessive forms and
contractions. When you press
, T9 displays a period.
However, as you continue to type, T9 determines the appropriate
mark based on your word database.

Using Your Phone:
Basic operations to place and
receive calls
Turning your phone on and off
When you’re ready to turn your Sprint PCS Phone on, check to see

. When your phone is turned
off, nothing is displayed on the screen.
Note: If
is pressed for less than one second, the phone will
not turn off. This keeps your phone from being turned off
accidentally.
Standby mode
Standby mode is the most basic state of the phone. The phone goes
into Standby mode soon after you turn it on or whenever you press
. When your Sprint PCS Phone is on but no call is in progress,
the phone is in Standby mode.
14
When your phone has acquired service, the greeting banner will be
displayed along with the date and time when in digital mode.
The menu options will be displayed on the lower half of the
screen. This is known as the Standby display or Standby mode.
While in the Standby mode, press
or
of the Navigation key to
highlight the menu option you wish to select, or enter a phone
number using the keypad.
Power Save mode
Your Sprint PCS Phone comes with a Power Save feature that will
be activated automatically if your phone hasn’t been able to find
service after 15 minutes of searching. While this feature is active,
the phone’s battery charge is conserved. The phone will automatically
check for a service periodically. To manually prompt the phone to
check for a service, press any key. A “Power Save” message on the
display will let you know when the phone is operating in Power Save
mode.
15
Making a call
Whenever you make a call, follow these simple steps:
1. First, check to see that your phone is on. If you see the display
indicators on the screen, that means the power is on.
2. Enter the phone number you’re calling.
3. Press
(or
).
4. When you’re finished with your call, press
to disconnect.
You can also make calls from your Internal Phone Book (see page
44) or from your recent calls list (see page 41).
Correcting dialing mistakes
If you make a mistake while dialing a phone number, press
to
erase one digit at a time. You can delete the entire number at once
by pressing
16
and holding it down for at least one second.
Answering calls
Your Sprint PCS Phone must be turned on before you can receive
calls. When your phone rings (“Call From: caller’s name” displays
if the caller’s name and number are stored in your phone’s Internal
Phone Book, and the red light flashes), press
(or
) to
answer. You can also answer by pressing any key (other than
, VOL key (
) or Navigation key). Before you do
this, you have to turn the Any Key Answer function on (See page
80).
To disconnect the call when you’re through, press
Where you can use your phone
Your Sprint PCS Phone is dual-band, which means you can use it
to make and receive calls in many places:
In any city where Sprint PCS provides service
On other CDMA networks and conventional analog cellular
networks where Sprint PCS has implemented roaming
agreements.
When you use your phone outside the digital Sprint PCS Nationwide
Network, it’s called roaming.
If you’re in an area where Sprint PCS has implemented roaming
with CDMA or conventional analog cellular providers, you will
pay the roaming rate plus long-distance charges, where they apply.
17
Note: In areas where Sprint PCS does not have a roaming
agreement in place, you will still be able to make (but not receive)
calls using a credit card. This is called manual roaming.
What you will see
You should always check your phone’s display because it will let
you know when you are outside the Sprint PCS Nationwide
Network and whether your phone is operating in analog cellular or
digital roaming mode.
The chart below indicates what you will see, depending on where
you’re using your phone.
(Analog Indicator)
(Roaming Indicator)
Sprint Network
Other CDMA Networks
(“Digital Roam” displays.)
Analog Cellular Networks
(“Analog Roam” displays.)
Regardless of whether you are using your phone on or off the
Sprint PCS Nationwide Network, you should always dial numbers
using 11 digits (1 + area code + number) when you make calls.
(This does not necessarily mean you’ll be charged a long-distance
rate.)
18
Calling experience
When you use your phone on other CDMA networks, your calling
experience and call quality will be similar to what you experience
when making calls from within the digital Sprint PCS Nationwide
Network. Although certain calling features may not be available,
your phone calls are still private and secure.
When you use your phone on analog cellular networks, your
experience will be different. Analog cellular roaming will be
similar to the quality provided by conventional analog cellular
carriers today. Although you will still have the convenience of
being able to make and receive calls, here are some differences
you can expect:
You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out
and dropped calls.
Some calling features such as Caller ID and the message
waiting indicator that are standard within the
Sprint PCS Nationwide Network may be unavailable.
You will experience the same security and privacy risks
(eavesdropping and phone number cloning) that exist with
conventional analog cellular services today.
Battery life will be shorter when you use your phone for analog
cellular roaming than when you use it on a CDMA network.
19
If you are on the phone when you leave a Sprint PCS Service Area
and enter an area where roaming is available (whether CDMA or
analog cellular), your call will be dropped. If your call is dropped
in an area where you think Sprint PCS provides service, turn your
phone off and then on again to acquire Sprint PCS Service.
If you need Sprint PCS Customer Service for any reason while
using your phone outside the Sprint PCS Network,
dial 1-888-211-4PCS (4727).
Sprint PCS periodically implements new roaming agreements.
To ensure your phone is able to roam everywhere Sprint PCS has
roaming agreements, stop by a Sprint PCS Center periodically for
a free roaming software upgrade. For a complete list of roaming
cities, visit our web site at www.sprintpcs.com.
Setting your phone’s mode
Three different settings on your phone allow you to control you’re
roaming experience. See page 53 for more details.
Call Guard
This feature reminds you when you are making or receiving a
roaming call so you can control your roaming experience.

Usage guidelines:
All about performance
and safety
Keeping tabs on signal strength
TM
The voice quality of your Sprint PCS Phone will always be at its
best when the antenna is fully raised. If you’re inside a building,
reception may be better near a window.
The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the signal
strength in your area. Your phone will inform 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. (See page 7
for an illustration of the signal strength indicators.)
Understanding Power Save mode
If you’re trying to use your phone in an area where the signal
cannot be found, the Power Save feature will automatically
activate to conserve battery power when you’ve been unable to
pick up a signal for 15 minutes. If your phone is on, it will
periodically recheck service availability, or you can do so yourself
manually by pressing any key. A message will be displayed on the
screen any time Power Save has been activated.
94
Understanding how your phone operates
Your Sprint PCS Phone is basically a radio transmitter and
receiver. When it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radio
frequency (RF) signals. Your phone operates in the frequency
range of 1.9 GHz and 800 MHz. When your phone is in use, the
system handling your call controls the power level.
Maintaining your phone’s peak performance
To operate your phone properly – that is, to maintain safe and
satisfactory service – you should follow these rules:
For best reception, fully extend the antenna.
Hold the phone with the antenna up and over your shoulder.
Do not hold the phone antenna at any time.
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna.
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.
Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills.
If your phone does get wet, turn the power off immediately and
remove the battery. If it is inoperable, you should return it to a
Sprint PCS Center or call Sprint PCS Customer Care for service.
Only authorized personnel should service your phone and its
accessories. Faulty service may invalidate the warranty.
95
Protecting your battery
For best battery performance, you should follow these guidelines:
Use only SANYO-approved batteries and AC adapter, cigarette
lighter adapter, and desktop charger.
These chargers are designed to maximize battery life. Using
other batteries or chargers will invalidate your warranty and
may cause damage as well.
To avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that
range from 32˚F to 104˚F (0˚C to 40˚C).
Do not 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 at the bottom of the battery clean.
Do not attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
You may need to recharge the battery if it has not been used for
a long period of time.
96
Replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable
performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it
will need to be replaced.
Do not store the battery in high temperature areas for long
periods of time. Follow these storage rules:
Less than one month: -4˚F to 131˚F (-20˚C to 55˚C)
More than one month: -4˚F to 95˚F (-20˚C to 35˚C)
Driving
Using a wireless phone while driving is illegal in some states and
countries. For your safety, become familiar with the laws and
regulations for your area, and pull off the road and park if you
need to make a call.
If you must use the phone while driving, purchase
and have installed the optional hands-free car kit
or the headset.
97
Disposal of Lithium Ion batteries
This product contains a Lithium Ion battery. Please ensure that
disposal of this battery is in accordance with applicable laws and
regulations.
Do not dispose of the battery in a fire; the cell may explode.
Do not open or puncture the battery; the released electrolyte is
corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes and skin.
This substance also can be toxic if swallowed.
Following safety guidelines
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, you should always
follow any special regulations in a given area, and 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 PCS telephones
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 to determine if these
systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals.
You should also check with the manufacturer regarding any
equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
98
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.
Turn off the phone in healthcare facilities and request permission
before using the phone near medical equipment.
Turn off your phone before flying
You should turn off your Sprint PCS Phone before boarding any
aircraft. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems,
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.
Restricting children’s access to your phone
Your phone is not a toy, and should not be played with by children.
They could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or make
calls that increase your telephone bills.
99
Turn off your phone in dangerous areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, you should 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 remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.
Turn off your phone when you are in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your phone or its accessories
could generate sparks. Sparks could cause an explosion or a fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere 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; and any other area where you
would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the
compartment of any vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.
Cautions
Any changes or modifications to your Sprint PCS Phone not
expressly approved in this document could void your warranty for
this equipment and void your authority to operate this equipment.
Use only SANYO approved batteries, antennas and chargers.
The use of any other type of accessory may invalidate the warranty.
100
