35Controlling 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 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. Main LCD/Sub LCD Roaming Indicator Analog Indicator Other Digital Networks 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 digital networks, your call quality and security will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls on the Nationwide PCS Network. However, you may not be able to access certain features. Roaming on Analog Networks When you roam on analog networks, you will experience quality similar to that provided by other analog carriers today. Although some features will be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access voicemail. You may notice some of the following differences:  You are more likely to experience static, crosstalk, fade-out and dropped calls.  Some features which are standard on the Nationwide PCS Network, such as call waiting, PCS products and services and direct international dialing, may be unavailable.  Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are roaming, you will 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’s charge will deplete more quickly and you will need to recharge it more often when you use your phone for analog roaming.
36Note: If you’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide 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 PCS Service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to the Nationwide PCS Network.

67Safety General Precautions There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.  Hold the phone with the antenna raised, 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.  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.  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. Note: For the best care of your phone, only PCS-authorized personnel should service your phone and accessories. Failure to do so may be dangerous and void your warranty. 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 and/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 radiofrequency (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 and/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.
68 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 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:  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’s engine. Note: Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids, or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories. 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 phone bill. Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device Your phone has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility. When some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate. The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their mobile phones, to assist hearing device users in finding phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated will have the rating on the box. Your SCP-7000 by Sanyo has an M3 rating. Note: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and may generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
69 The M3/M4 ratings do not guarantee successful interoperation between your phone and hearing aid device. Results will vary depending on the level of immunity of your hearing device and degree of your hearing loss. The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely you are to experience interference noise from your wireless phone. Hearing aid devices should have ratings similar to phones. Ask your hearing healthcare professional for the rating of your aids. Most new hearing aids have at least an M2 immunity level. Add the “M” ratings of your hearing aid and your phone to determine probable usability:  Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers best use.  Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.  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 “best use.” We further suggests you experiment with multiple phones (even those not labeled M3 or M4) while in the store to find the one that works best with your hearing aid device. Should you experience interference after purchasing your phone, promptly return it to the store. With our 14-day Risk-Free Guarantee you may return the phone within 14 days of purchase for a full refund. Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience With Your SCP-7000 by Sanyo One way to minimize interference is to set the phone’s Display and Keypad backlight settings to ensure the minimum time interval. To ensure the minimum interference for your Main LCD’s and Sub LCD’s backlight, follow these steps: 1. Press Menu/OK to access the main menu. 2. Select Settings and press Menu/OK. 3. Select Display and press Menu/OK. 4. Select Backlight and press Menu/OK. 5. Select Main LCD or Sub LCD. 6. Scroll and select the minimum time interval setting (8 seconds for Main LCD, 5 seconds for Sub LCD). To ensure the minimum interference for the Keypad backlight, follow these steps: 1. Press Menu/OK to access the main menu. 2. Select Settings and press Menu/OK. 3. Select Display and press Menu/OK. 4. Select Backlight and press Menu/OK. 5. Select Key and press Menu/OK. 6.

70 Caring for the Battery Protecting Your Battery The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance.  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 (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 PCS-authorized service center. Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some are as, the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited. Radiofrequency (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 radiofrequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode. Knowing Radiofrequency 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
0.782
72determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct 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.
