If you purchased your phone at a Sprint Store, it is probably
activated, unlocked, and ready to use. If you received your
phone in the mail, it probably has been activated; all you need
to do is unlock it.
If your phone is not activated, please refer to the Welcome to
Sprint brochure included with your phone.
Unlocking Your Phone
To unlock your phone, follow these easy steps:
1. Press to turn the phone on.
2. Press Unlock (left softkey).
Note: To select a softkey, press the softkey button directly below the softkey
text that appears at the bottom left and bottom right of your phone’s
display screen. Softkey actions change according to the screen you’re
viewing and will not appear if there is no corresponding action available.
3. Enter your four-digit lock code. (For security purposes,
the code is not visible as you type.)
Tip: If you can’t recall your lock code, try using the last four digits
of either your Social Security number or wireless phone number or try 0000
or NATL (6285). If none of these work, call Sprint Customer Service at
1-888-211-4PCS (4727).

telecommunications device that allows people who are
deaf, hard-of-hearing, or who have speech or language
disabilities, to communicate by telephone.
Your phone is compatible with select 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 Sprint PCS Service, please call Sprint
Customer Service via the state Telecommunications Relay
Service (TRS) by first dialing . Then
provide the state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.

WARNING: 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.

⽧Using Data Roam Guard (page 96)
Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off
the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Your new dual-band/
tri-mode SCP-2400 by Sanyo works anywhere on the
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network and allows you to roam on
other analog and 1900 and 800 MHz digital networks.
This section explains how roaming works as well as special
features that let you manage your roaming experience.
SCP_2400 UG-P000_126.qxd 06.4.14 4:35 PM Page 89
90 Section 2D: 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 Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. Any time you are
roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ). If you are
roaming on a digital system, the roaming icon will be
displayed along with the text – Digital Roam – . If you are
roaming on an analog system, the roaming icon will be
displayed along with the text – Analog Roam – .
Tip: Remember, when you are using your phone off the Nationwide
Sprint PCS Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code +
number).
Note: Unless your Sprint PCS service plan includes roaming, 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 Sprint PCS Network.
However, you may not be able to access certain features,
such as Sprint PCS Vision.
Note:If you’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide Sprint 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 Sprint PCS Service is available, turn
your phone off and on again to reconnect to the Nationwide Sprint PCS
Network.
SCP_2400 UG-P000_126.qxd 06.4.14 4:35 PM Page 90
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 91
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, such as Sprint PCS Vision and
Sprint PCS Voice Command, will be unavailable, you can
still make and receive calls and access voicemail. If you are
accustomed to Sprint PCS Service, you may notice some of
the following differences when using analog service:
䢇You are more likely to experience static, crosstalk,
fade-out, and dropped calls.
䢇Some features which are standard on the Nationwide
Sprint PCS Network, such as call waiting, Sprint PCS Vision,
and direct international dialing, may be unavailable.
䢇Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you
are roaming, you will not receive notification until you
return to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. (See
“Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming”on
page 92.)
䢇There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and
cloning) that exist with conventional analog services
today.
䢇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.
Note: When using your phone in analog mode, the phone may feel warm.
This is normal for analog operation.

Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming
Voicemail notification is available when you are on the
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network or roaming in a digital
network service area. When you are roaming on other
networks, you will 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
time.
To check your voicemail while roaming:
1. Dial 1 + area code + your wireless phone number.
2. When you hear your voicemail greeting, press .
3. Enter your passcode at the prompt and follow the voice
prompts.
When you return to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network,
voicemail notification will resume as normal.

Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
Your phone allows you to control your roaming capabilities. By
using the Roaming menu option, you can determine which
signals your phone accepts.

Choose from three different settings on your dual-band/tri-
mode phone to control your roaming experience.
To set your phone’s roam mode:

2. Select an option and press .
䡲Sprint Only
allows you to access the Nationwide
Sprint PCS Network only and prevents roaming on
other networks.
䡲Automatic seeks Sprint PCS Service. When Sprint PCS

alternate system.
䡲Roaming Only forces the phone to seek a roaming
system. The previous setting (Sprint Only or
Automatic) is restored the next time the phone is
turned on.

Getting Started With Sprint PCS Vision
With your phone and Sprint PCS Service, you are ready to start
enjoying the advantages of Sprint PCS Vision. This section will
help you learn the basics of using your Sprint PCS Vision
services, including managing your user name, launching a
Vision connection, and navigating the Web with your phone.
Your User Name
When you buy a phone and sign up for service, you’re
automatically assigned a user name, which is typically based
on your name and a number, followed by “@sprint.com.”(For
example, the third John Smith to sign up for Sprint PCS Vision
services might have jsmith003@sprint.com as his user name.)
If you want a particular user name, you can visit
www.sprint.com and get the name you want as long as
nobody else has it.
When you use Sprint PCS Vision services, your user name is
submitted to identify you to the Nationwide Sprint PCS
Network. The user name is also useful as an address for
Sprint PCS® Mail, as a way to personalize Web services, and as
an online virtual identity.
Your user name will be automatically programmed into your
phone. You don’t have to enter it.
Updating Your User Name
When you change the programmed user name and select a
new one, you have to update your user name through your
phone.
To update your user name:
䊳Select > Settings > PCS Vision > Update Profile.
䢇If you want to cancel, press while processing.

General Precautions
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and
maintaining safe, satisfactory service.
䢇Hold the phone with the antenna raised, fully-extended, and over your
shoulder.
䢇Try not to hold, bend, or twist the phone’s antenna.
䢇Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged.
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.
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.
Tip: Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local Sprint Store, or call
the Sprint PCS Accessory HotlineSM at 1-800-974-2221 or by dialing
.
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.
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.
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 Sprint PCS Invoice. Before allowing your children to use this phone,
please read "Using the Parental Control Feature" on pages 87 and 88.

SCP_2400 UG-P127_242.qxd 06.4.13 9:12 AM Page 225
226 Section 4A: Important Safety Information
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-2400 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.
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:
䢇Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers best 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 “best use.”
Sprint 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 the
Sprint® 14 Day Risk Free Guarantee you may return the phone within 14
days of purchase for a full refund.

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 PCS® phones resulting from the proper use of batteries and
accessories approved by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone. Use
only Sprint 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 the
Wireless link under Personal, and then click Accessories under Shop the
Sprint PCS Store Online. 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).
SCP_2400 UG-P127_242.qxd 06.4.13 9:12 AM Page 227
228 Section 4A: Important Safety Information
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)
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.
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.
SCP_2400 UG-P127_242.qxd 06.4.13 9:12 AM Page 228
Section 4A: Important Safety Information 229
Important Safety Information
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 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 1.9 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.
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 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.

authorized dealer in the United States, a limited warranty that the Product,
including accessories in the Product’s package, will be free from defects in
material or workmanship as follows:
A. ONE (1) YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY:For a period of one (1) year from
the date of original purchase, SANYO will, at its option, either repair or
replace a defective Product (with new or rebuilt parts/replacements).
B. LIMITED WARRANTY ON REPAIRED/REPLACED PRODUCTS: For a
period equal to the remainder of the limited warranty period on the
original Product or, on warranty repairs which have been effected on
Products for 90 days after the date of its repair or replacement, whichever is
longer, SANYO will repair or replace (with new or rebuilt
parts/replacements) defective parts or Products used in the repair or
replacement of the original Product under the Limited Warranty on it.
Proof that the Product is within the warranty period in the form of a bill of

be presented to obtain warranty service. This limited warranty is not
transferable to any third party, including but not limited to any subsequent

not cover any battery if (i) the battery has been charged by a battery charger
not specified or approved by SANYO for charging the battery, (ii) any of the
seals on the battery are broken or show evidence of tampering, or (iii) the
battery has been used in equipment other than the SANYO phone for which
it is specified.
