12Understanding Roaming Understanding How Roaming Works Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the Sprint 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. Roaming Indicator Sprint Nationwide PCS Network Other/Analog Networks Tip: Remember, when you are using your phone off the Sprint 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 enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. You may not be able to access certain calling features, such as PCS Vision. 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, such as PCS Vision, will be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access voicemail. You will experience a few differences: l You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out and dropped calls. l Some calling features which are standard on the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network, such as Call Waiting, PCS Vision products and Services and direct international dialing, are unavailable. l Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are roaming, you will not receive notification until you return to the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. While roaming, you can periodically check your voicemail for new messages by dialing 1+arecode+your PCS Phone Number. Press * when you hear your greeting and enter your pass code at the prompt. l There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning) that exist with conventional analog services today. l Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your phone for analog roaming.

When Sprint Service is unavailable, the phone searches for an alternative system. l Analog: This setting forces the phone to seek an analog roaming system. The previous setting is restored the next time the phone is turned on. Controlling Roaming Charges Using Call Guard In addition to the roaming icon, Call Guard alerts you when roaming charges apply. This feature makes it easy to manage your roaming charges by reminding you when you make or receive roaming calls.

81Knowing Performance and Safety Guidelines 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 on, it periodically rechecks service availability or you can check 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. l Hold the phone with the antenna up, fully-extended and over your shoulder. l Try not to ever hold, bend or twist the phone antenna. l Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged. l Speak directly into the mouthpiece. l 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 PCS Center or call PCS Customer Care for service.
82Note: For the best care of your phone, only PCS authorized personnel should service your phone and accessories. Faulty service may void the warranty. Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phon e 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: l Get to know your phone and its features, such as speed dial and redial. l When available, use a hands-free device. l Position your phone within easy reach. l Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. l Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. l Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. l Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may divert your attention from the road. l Dial 9 1 1 TALK to report serious emergencies. It’s free from your wireless phone. l Use your phone to help others in emergencies. l 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
83aids, 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 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: l Fueling areas such as gas stations l Below deck on boats l Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities l Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or metal powders l 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. l Use only Sprint 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.
84l In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32º F to 113º F (0º C to 45º C). l Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom. l Never dispose of the battery by incineration. l Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean. l Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery. l The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time. l 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. l 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 Sprint 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. 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.

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
85and 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: l Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. l Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. l Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. l 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 This device was tested for typical body-worn operations using the holster (Model: SCP-02HR/US), which provides 2.2 cm. separation from the body. 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 2.2 cm separation between the device, including its antenna whether extended or retracted, and the user's body. The use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. 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 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
86variations 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-5300 are: AMPS mode (Part 22) - Head: 1.41 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.858 W/kg PCS mode (Part 24) - Head: 0.694 W/kg; Body -worn: 1.250 W/kg be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct FCC Radio Frequency Emission This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines. FCC ID number: AEZSCP-53H. More information on the phone’s SAR can be found from the following FCC website: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid
