Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off

the Sprint National Network.Your new digital dual-band

PRO-200 by SANYO works anywhere on the Sprint National

Network and allows you to roam on other 1900 and 800

MHz digital networks.

This section explains how roaming works as well as special

features that let you manage your roaming experience.

Roaming

96 Section 2E: Controlling 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 Sprint National Network. Any time you are roaming,

the phone displays the roaming icon ( ).

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 Sprint National Network. However, you

may not be able to access certain features, such as Sprint

Power Vision, depending on the available network.

Note If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint National Network,

your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where

you think Sprint service is available, turn your phone off and

on again to reconnect to the network.

Tip Remember, when you are using your phone off the Sprint

National Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits

(1 + area code + number).

Section 2E: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 97

Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming

When you are roaming off the Sprint National Network, you

may not receive on-phone notification of new voicemail

messages. Callers can still leave messages, but you will need

to periodically check your voicemail for new messages if you

are in a roaming service area for an extended period of time.

1. Dial 1 + area code + your phone number.

2. When you hear your voicemail greeting, press .

3. Enter your passcode at the prompt and follow the voice

prompts.

General Precautions

There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and

maintaining safe, satisfactory service.

䢇To maximize performance, do not touch the upper and bottom portion

of the back of the phone where the internal antenna is located while

using the phone.

䢇Speak directly into the mouthpiece.

䢇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.

䢇Do not expose your phone to direct sunlight for extended periods of

time (such as on the dashboard of a car).

䢇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.

䢇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 Sprint-authorized personnel

should service your phone and accessories. Failure to do so may be

dangerous and void your warranty.

Section 4A: Important Safety Information 207

Important Safety Information

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 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 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 systems 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 healthcare facilities, and request

permission before using the phone near medical equipment.

Tip Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local Sprint Store, or

call Sprint at 1-800-974-2221 or by dialing #222on your phone.

208 Section 4A: Important Safety Information

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:

䢇Fueling areas such as gas stations.

䢇Below deck on boats.

䢇Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.

䢇Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust,

or metal powders.

䢇Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your

vehicle’s engine.

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 Sprint invoice.

Note Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids, or

explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your

phone or accessories.

Section 4A: Important Safety Information 209

Important Safety Information

Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid

Device

A number of Sprint phones have been tested for hearing aid device

compatibility. When some wireless phones are used with certain hearing

devices (including hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a

noise which can interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing device.

Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference

noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference noise they may

generate. ANSI standard C63.19 was developed to provide a standardized

means of measuring both wireless phone and hearing devices to determine

usability rating categories for both.

Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist hearing device

users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing device. Not all

phones have been rated for compatibility with hearing devices. Phones that

have been rated have a label located on the box. Your PRO-200 by SANYO

has an M4 and a T4 rating.

These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s

hearing device and individual type and degree of hearing loss. If a hearing

device is particularly vulnerable to interference noise; even a phone with a

higher rating may still cause unacceptable noise levels in the hearing

device. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to

evaluate it for your personal needs.

M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements for hearing aid

compatibility and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices

than unrated phones. (M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.)

T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be

more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch”or “Telephone

Switch”) than unrated phones. (T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.

Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)

210 Section 4A: Important Safety Information

Hearing aid devices may also be measured for immunity to interference

noise from wireless phones and should have ratings similar to phones. Ask

your hearing healthcare professional for the rating of your hearing aid. Add

the rating of your hearing aid and your phone to determine probable

usability:

䢇Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers excellent use.

䢇Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.

䢇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 “excellent use.”This is synonymous for T ratings.

SprintNextel further suggests you experiment with multiple phones (even

those not labeled M3/T3 or M4/T4) while in the store to find the one that

works best with your hearing aid device. Should you experience

interference or find the quality of service unsatisfactory after purchasing

your phone, promptly return it to the store within 30 days of purchase. With

the Sprint 30-day Risk-Free Guarantee, you may return the phone within 30

days of purchase for a full refund. More information about hearing aid

compatibility may be found at: www.fcc.gov,www.fda.gov, and

www.accesswireless.org.

Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience

With Your Phone

To further minimize interference:

䢇Set the phone’s Display and Keypad backlight settings to ensure the

minimum time interval:

1. Press > Settings > Display > Main Screen or Outer Screen >

Backlight.

– or –

Press > Settings> Display > Keypad Light.

2. Select the minimum time interval setting and press .

䢇Position the phone so the internal antenna is farthest from your

hearing aid.

䢇Move the phone around to find the point with least interference.

Caring for the Battery

Protecting Your Battery

The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s

performance.

䢇Recently there have been some public reports of wireless phone

batteries overheating, catching fire or exploding. It appears that many,

if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive,

aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable

manufacturing standards. Sprint is not aware of similar problems with

Sprint phones resulting from the proper use of batteries and accessories

approved by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone. Use only Sprint-

approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories found at

Sprint Stores or through your phone’s manufacturer, or call 1-866-343-

1114 to order. They’re also available at www.sprint.com — click

Accessories. Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best way

to ensure they’re genuine and safe.

䢇In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that

range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).

䢇Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity

areas, such as the bathroom.

䢇Never dispose of the battery by incineration.

䢇Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.

䢇Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.

䢇The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period

of time.

䢇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.

䢇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:

-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)

More than one month:

-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)

212 Section 4A: Important Safety Information

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

Sprint 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.

Radio Frequency (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 radio frequency (RF) signals. When you use

your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This

power can range from 0.006 watt to 0.2 watt 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 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 the Sprint supplied or approved carrying case,

holster or other body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn

accessory, ensure the antenna is at least 2.3 centimeters from your body

when transmitting. Use of non-Sprint-approved accessories may violate

FCC RF exposure guidelines.

For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC Web site at

www.fcc.gov.

Section 4A: Important Safety Information 213

Important Safety Information

Specific Absorption Rates (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 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.

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 the PRO-200 by SANYO®are:

Cellular CDMA mode (Part 22):

Head: 0.405 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.218 W/kg

PCS mode (Part 24):

Head: 1.210 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.544 W/kg

FCC Radio Frequency Emission

This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines.

FCC ID number: AEZSCP-PRO200.

More information on the phone’s SAR can be found from the following FCC

Web site: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid.
