41BasicsT608 PreliminaryPerformance and SafetyImportant Information About Your Phone and ServiceKeeping Tabs on Signal StrengthThe 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 FeatureIf 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.Understanding How Your Phone OperatesYour 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. Knowing Radio Frequency SafetyThe design of your phone complies with updated NCRP standards described below. To further limit RF exposure, you can limit the duration of your calls and operate your phone in the most power-efficient manner. 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 Start Here.book  Page 41  Friday, January 10, 2003  1:18 PM
42BasicsT608 Preliminaryconsisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation Protections and Measurements (NCRP).Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak PerformanceThere are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.ᮣ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 Sprint Store or call PCS Customer Service Solutions for service.Note: For the best care of your phone, only Sprint Authorized Personnel should service your phone and accessories. Faulty service may void the warranty.Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your PhoneFAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS OUTLINED MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND POSSIBLE PROPERTY DAMAGEUsing Your Phone While DrivingTalking 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.ᮣDial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when stationary or before pulling into traffic.Start Here.book  Page 42  Friday, January 10, 2003  1:18 PM
43BasicsT608 PreliminaryᮣDo not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may divert your attention from the road.ᮣDial 911 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.Following Safety GuidelinesTo 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 DevicesMost 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 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.Start Here.book  Page 43  Friday, January 10, 2003  1:18 PM
44BasicsT608 PreliminaryTurning Off Your Phone Before FlyingTurn 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 AreasTo 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, liquid or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.Restricting Children’s Access to Your PhoneYour 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.Start Here.book  Page 44  Friday, January 10, 2003  1:18 PM

Details on any applicable phone activation fee are set out in your Service Plan or can be obtained by calling PCS Customer Service Solutions.Charges. For most forms of wireless Service, your usage will be charged from the time you first initiate contact between your phone or other wireless device and the network until the network connection is broken, whether or not you are successful in connecting with the service with which you seek to connect, even if the connection is later broken or dropped. An exception is that you are not charged for voice calls that are not completed. You are charged for completed calls to your Number from the time shortly before the phone starts ringing until the call is terminated by either party. You will be charged peak rates for the entire duration of calls initiated during the peak time periods applicable to your Service. You will be charged off-peak rates for the entire duration of calls initiated during the off-peak time periods applicable to your Service. In addition to these usage charges, you may be charged for recurring monthly service charges, applicable local and long-distance toll charges, other usage charges, connection fees, roaming charges, directory assistance, call completion charges, account review and management charges optional features you select at an extra cost, and taxes and other regulatory-related charges. Charges for most Services are incurred in one-minute increments, with partial minutes of use rounded up to the next highest minute. You must pay, by each invoice due date, all charges for Services provided to the Number for each phone or other equipment that our records show you activated, no matter who actually uses or has possession of the phone or other equipment at the time Services are provided.PCS Vision (Third Generation) Wireless Charges.

51BasicsT608 Preliminarywireless device, rather than for airtime used, even for certain PCS Vision voice services. As long as your PCS Phone or other wireless device is connected to the enhanced (Third Generation) Sprint Nationwide PCS Network, you will be incurring data usage charges. You cannot receive incoming calls while using third generation services. Data packet usage will be measured in kilobytes and will be rounded up to the next whole kilobyte. Kilobyte usage will be rounded up to the next full cent. Rounding up will occur at the end of each separate session or each clock hour (at the top of each hour), if the session spans more than 1 clock hour. When traveling on the Vision network, a session may be ended and new session initiated, although no interruption to the actual data session will occur. Each individual session will be rounded up. The number of data packets used and charged to you will vary widely, depending upon the specific PCS Vision wireless application or other service you use and the amount of data used in the specific application or service. You will be charged for data exchanges initiated by other Internet users as well as those you initiate. Estimates of data usage, for example, the size of downloadable files, will vary from what you actually use. You will be charged for additional data used in transporting and routing on the network. If you use a Premium Service (including services provided by third parties but for which you are billed on your PCS Invoice), you will be charged for data used in transport and routing in addition to the charge for the Premium Service. You will be charged for partial and interrupted data downloads or other use, including re-sent data, and for unsuccessful attempts to reach Web sites and use other applications and services, including those resulting from dropped network connections. Your invoice will not separately identify the number of kilobytes attributable to your use of specific sites, sessions or services used. Specific additional information about PCS Vision wireless services, including pricing, included kilobytes and combining with other PCS Service Plans, is available in our standard sales collateral for PCS Vision wireless Service Plans or at www.sprintpcs.com.PCS Voice CommandSM.

Airtime and applicable long distance charges for a call completed from your Number using the PCS Voice Command feature begin when you press or activate the TALK or similar key(s) and end when your call is terminated by hitting the END key or by returning to the PCS Voice Command platform. If you initiate and complete another call without leaving the PCS Voice Command platform, a separate charge for that call will begin from the time the previous call was terminated. Airtime and applicable long distance charges will be applied to the entire length of a completed call initiated from PCS Voice Command. Using Directory Assistance to input names into your PCS Voice Command address book will incur additional charges. Details on charges for the PCS Voice Command feature can be found in the marketing materials for this feature, by visiting www.sprintpcs.com or by calling PCS Customer Service Solutions.Invoicing. Invoicing cycles are approximately 30 days in length. Invoicing cycles and dates may change from time to time. Except as otherwise provided in your Service Plan, monthly recurring charges (MRCs) are invoiced one invoicing cycle in advance. Charges for Services are usually invoiced as soon as possible after the charges accrue. We may, however, invoice you for usage and charges occurring before the invoicing cycle being invoiced, if they were not previously invoiced. If you are invoiced for usage incurred during a prior invoicing cycle, those minutes will be applied to your Service Plan minutes for the current invoicing cycle. However, if you change your PCS Service Plan between the time the usage was incurred and the beginning of the current invoicing cycle, those minutes from the prior invoicing cycle will be charged at the rate per minute for usage over included minutes provided in the Service Plan in effect at the time the usage was incurred.Additional Terms for Premium Services. Access to and downloading of premium content is not included with PCS Vision services. Certain PCS Vision services (e.g., games, ringers and screen savers) contain mostly premium services content.

54BasicsT608 PreliminaryLate Payment Charges. Payment is past due if we do not receive it by the due date shown on your invoice. Any payment for Services and equipment not made when due accrues late charges until paid at the rate of 5% per month or at the highest rate allowed by law. Acceptance of late or partial payments (even if marked “paid in full”) does not waive our right to collect all amounts that you owe us. If your Service has been suspended due to non-payment, you may be charged a reactivation fee.Disputed Charges. You must raise any dispute that you have about any charges invoiced to you within 15 days of the date of the invoice or you have accepted the invoice.

55BasicsT608 PreliminaryTermination. General. Regardless of whether you have a Non-Term or a Term Service Plan, we may terminate or suspend Services to you without liability (1) if you breach any provision of this Agreement (including if you fail to pay any charges for Services), or (2) if you fail to pay any charges due us for equipment or otherwise. If you promptly cure the breach, we may, but are not obligated to, reactivate Services to you. You must pay all charges for (a) Services provided before termination of a Number, (b) equipment, regardless of who terminates Services and (c) a reactivation fee, if we agree to reactivate Services to you. If Services are terminated before the end of your current invoicing cycle (i) the monthly recurring charge is not prorated to the date of termination, and (ii) you will not receive a credit or refund for any unused minutes in your Service Plan.Account Spending Limit. If we agree to provide Services to you on an Account Spending Limit basis, we will tell you your Account Spending Limit before we start Services to your Number, or as reasonably practicable after the limit is imposed. If we require a deposit for you to establish or keep Services on an Account Spending Limit basis, we will hold the deposit as partial guarantee of payment for Services (see Deposits). Charges for Services accrue against your Account Spending Limit as they are incurred. We may charge an initial ASL start up fee. We may charge a monthly ASL service fee, in addition to your recurring monthly service charge. We may suspend Services to your Number without prior notice to you when your account balance reaches your Account Spending Limit. Services are restored when you have paid any past due balance and pay a specified minimum amount to reduce your account balance below your Account Spending Limit. We may change this minimum amount at any time upon notice to you. You may pay any past due balance and the minimum amount by any method authorized by Sprint.

If we require a deposit for you to establish or keep Services, we will hold the deposit as partial guarantee of payment for Services. We may change the deposit amount at any time to reflect revised estimated monthly charges based upon your usage. A deposit may not be used to pay any invoice (unless it is used to pay a final invoice) or delay payment. The deposit amount, the length of time we hold the deposit and changes to the deposit amount are determined based on your credit and payment history. The rate of interest, if any, on the deposit is subject to change. We may mix deposits with our other funds. If Services are terminated for any reason, we may, without notice to you, apply your deposit toward payment of outstanding charges and return any excess to you at your last known address within 75 days after termination of Services. If the U.S. Postal Service cannot deliver the money to you and returns it to us, we will hold it for you for one year from the date of return and, during that period, we may charge a servicing fee against the deposit balance. Any money held during this one-year period will not accrue interest for your benefit. You forfeit any portion of the money left after the one-year period.PCS Wireless Web and Voice Portal Services.

If your PCS Phone is a dual-mode phone, it works on both a CDMA PCS provider's system (in addition to the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network) and a wireless analog telecommunications provider's system only when roaming agreements are in place between Sprint and the other providers. If we do not have a roaming agreement in place, you may be able to place roaming calls “manually” by using a valid credit card. If there is a gap or other interruption of coverage within a PCS coverage area that prevents connection with the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network and your dual-band phone is set to roam automatically when outside PCS coverage, you may incur roaming fees within a PCS coverage area. Certain features are not available when roaming. Roaming rates may be different from and higher than the rates you pay for calls within your Sprint PCS Local Service Area and on the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. When roaming, you are subject to the limitation of liability provisions and other applicable rules imposed by the roaming service provider.Interruption of Service. We may give credit for a continuous interruption of Services for more than 24 hours on a case-by-case basis. Interruptions caused by your negligent or willful actions, or by failure of equipment or service not provided by us, or by causes beyond our reasonable control, do not qualify for credit.

TTY doesn’t work with all PCS Phones.
