Charging the Battery
Your PCS Phone comes with a rechargeable battery. You should
charge the battery 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 will 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 in the upper-right corner of
your phone’s display screen. If the battery charge is getting too
low, the battery icon
appears and the phone sounds a
warning tone.
Always use a Sprint-approved desktop charger, travel charger,
or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.
Warning! Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage to your
phone and void the warranty.
Using the Travel Charger
To use the travel charger provided with your phone:
1. Plug the travel charger into a wall outlet.
2. Plug the other end into the travel charger into the bottom of
your phone (with the battery installed).
Charging when your phone is turned on:

The battery icon turns to
when charging is complete.
Charging when your phone is turned off:
The battery icon
appears, and the message “BATTERY
CHARGING-Power Off-” is shown on the display while
charging. When the battery is completely discharged, you may
wait for several minutes until the message is shown on the
display. The battery icon turns to
, and message changes to
“CHARGING COMPLETE-Power Off-” when charging
complete.
It takes approximately xx hours to fully recharge a completely
rundown battery. With the Sprint-approved LiIon battery,
you can recharge the battery before it becomes completely
run down.

TTY Use With PCS Service From Sprint
A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone), is a
telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf or
hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to
communicate via a telephone.
Your phone is compatible with selected TTY devices. Please
check with the manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure that
it supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY
device will connect via a special cable that plugs into your
phone’s Headset Jack. If this cable was not provided with your
TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase
the connector cable.
When establishing your PCS Service, please call PCS Customer
Service Solutions via the state Telecommunications Relay
Service (TRS) by first dialing
. Then
provide the state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.
To turn TTY Mode On or Off:

IMPORTANT NOTICE: 911 Emergency Calling
Sprint recommends that TTY users make emergency calls by other
means including Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS), analog
cellular, 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.

Understanding Roaming
Roaming on Analog Networks
Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re
off the enhanced 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.
Main LCD
Roaming Indicator
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a
similar quality provided by other analog carriers today. Although
some features, such as PCS Vision and PCS Voice Command, 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 features which are standard on the enhanced
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network, such as call waiting,
PCS Vision, and direct international dialing, are unavailable.
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+area code+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.

Using Special Features During a Web Call
Getting Started
Your phone gives you the ability to use special features while
you’re on a Web call. They are outlined below:
Your PCS Phone can connect to a laptop PC to send and receive
email, access the Internet or your company’s network, and
more – without searching for a wall-mounted telephone jack.
In just three steps, you can use your connectivity:
Call Waiting: If someone tries to reach you while you’re
connected to the Web, your phone behaves like it is turned
OFF. Depending on your service, callers may get your
voicemail. Call Waiting is automatically deactivated whenever
you place or receive a Web connection call.
Accessing Features: You can still access most of your phone’s
features while you’re connected on a Web connection call.
You can navigate the phone’s menu system to change or view
your phone’s features or Internal Phone Book entries. You can
also read messages or view the Caller ID records that you
received before placing the call.

Placing a Data Call
To place a data call when you’re connected to the Web:
1. First, make sure the cable is connected properly.
Ending a Web Call
It’s important to note that some of the normal ways to end a call
won’t work with Web connection calls. You should always close
the connection through the application on your computer. Your
phone will then return to standby mode.
2. Open the PCS Connection Manager Software on your
computer and place the call.
SM
The phone displays the number your computer is calling and
a “connecting” message.
Once the call successfully connects, your phone displays
information on the status of the data call.

Consumer Information on Wireless Phones
art of getting the most out of your PCS Phone is learning how
the phone works and how to care for it. This section outlines
performance and safety guidelines that help you understand the
basic features of your phone’s operation.
Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information
4A: Safety 195
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 signal 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 the 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.
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 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. If it’s inoperable, return
it to a SprintStore or call PCS Customer Service Solutions
for service.
SM
Note: For the best care of your phone, only Sprint authorized personnel
should service your phone and accessories. Faulty service may void
the warranty.
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 0.01µ
watts to 0.464 watts in digital mode.
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
Knowing Radiofrequency Safety
The design of your PCS 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 a hybrid standard consisting of the existing
ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the
National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements
(NCRP).
Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information
196 4A: Safety
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.
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.
Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information
4A: Safety 197

Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls
when stationary or before pulling into traffic.
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that
may divert your attention from the road.
Dial
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 at your local Sprint Store.
You may also call the PCS Accessory Hotline at 1-800-974-2221 or by
dialing
on your PCS Phone.
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.
Note: Always turn off the phone in health care facilities and request
permission before using the phone near medical equipment.
Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information
198 4A: Safety
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:
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, 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.
Section 4: Safety Guidelines and Warranty Information
4A: Safety 199
Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your
battery’s performance.
Use only Sprint-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.
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, MA 02269, Attn: Publication Sales Division.
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.
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.
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:

Cautions
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones
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 void the
phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to
the phone.
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.
Body-Worn Operation
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 than 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.
SAR complianec for body-worn operating configuration is based
on a separation distance of 1.8 cm between the back of the unit
and the body of the user. End-users must be informed of the bodyworn operating requirements for satisfying RF exposure compliance.
Belt clips or holsters may not contain metallic components.
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.
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.
The highest reported SAR values of the SCP-8100 are:
AMPS mode (Part 22) - Head: 1.42W/kg; Body-worn: 0.79W/kg
PCS mode (Part 24) - Head: 1.34W/kg; Body-worn: 1.33W/kg
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC
website at www.fcc.gov.
