Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi provides wireless Internet access over distances of up to 300 feet. To use your device’s
Wi-Fi, you need access to a wireless access point or “hotspot.”
The availability and range of the Wi-Fi signal depends on a number of factors, including
infrastructure and other objects through which the signal passes.
Turn Wi-Fi On and Connect to a Wireless Network
1. Touch > and select Settings > Wireless & networks.
2. Select the Wi-Fi check box to turn Wi-Fi on. The device will scan for available wireless
networks.
3. Touch Wi-Fi settings. The network names and security settings (Open network or
Secured with WEP) of detected Wi-Fi networks are displayed in the Wi-Fi networks
section.
Web and Data 62
4. Touch a Wi-Fi network to connect. If you selected an open network, you will be
automatically connected to the network. If you selected a network that is secured with
WEP, enter the key, and then touch Connect.
Depending on the network type and its security settings, you may also need to enter more
information or choose a security certificate.
When your device is connected to a wireless network, the Wi-Fi icon ( ) appears in the status
bar and tells you the approximate signal strength (number of bands displayed).
If Network notification in Wi-Fi settings is enabled, this icon ( ) appears in the status bar
whenever the device detects an available wireless network within range.
Note: The next time your device connects to a previously accessed secured wireless network,
you will not be prompted to enter the WEP key again, unless you reset your device to its
factory default settings.
Note: Wi-Fi networks are self-discoverable, which means no additional steps are required for
your device to connect to a Wi-Fi network. It may be necessary to provide a user name
and password for certain closed wireless networks.
Check the Wireless Network Status
1. Touch > and select Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi settings.
2. Touch the wireless network that the device is currently connected to. You will see a
message box showing the Wi-Fi network name, status, speed, signal strength, and other
details.
Note: If you want to remove the device’s wireless network settings, touch Forget on this
window. You need to enter the settings again if you want to connect to this wireless
network.
Connect to a Different Wi-Fi Network
1. Touch > and select Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi settings.
Detected Wi-Fi networks are displayed in the Wi-Fi networks section. To manually scan
for available Wi-Fi networks, on the Wi-Fi settings screen, touch and then Scan.
2. Touch another Wi-Fi network to connect to it.
Note: If the wireless network you want to connect to is not in the list of detected networks,
scroll down the screen, and touch Add Wi-Fi network. Enter the wireless network
settings and touch Save.

Data Services (Sprint 3G Network)
With your Sprint service, you are ready to start enjoying the advantages of data services. This
section will help you learn the basics of using your data services, including managing your user
name, launching a data connection, and navigating the Web with your device.
Important: Certain data services requests may require additional time to process. While your
device is loading the requested service, the touchscreen or QWERTY keyboard
may appear unresponsive when in fact they are functioning properly. Allow the
device some time to process your data usage request.
Your User Name
When you buy your device and sign up for service, you’re automatically assigned a user name,
which is typically based on your name and a number, followed by “@sprintpcs.com.” (For
example, the third John Smith to sign up for Sprint data services might have
jsmith003@sprintpcs.com as his user name.)
When you use data services, your user name is submitted to identify you to the Nationwide
Sprint Network. Your user name is automatically programmed into your device. You don’t have
to enter it.
Update Your User Name
If you choose to change your user name and select a new one online, or make any changes to
your services, you must then update the profile on your device.
1. Touch > and select Settings > About tablet > Phone updates.
2. Tap Update Profile.
Launch a Web Connection
Launching a Web connection is as simple as opening the browser on your device.
Touch > and select Browser. (Your data connection starts and you see the
home page.)
Note: Internet connections can be made either through the Sprint (3G or 4G) or via Wi-Fi
(configured within the Settings > Wireless and networks page).
While connecting, you may see an animation. Once complete, you are connected to the default
home page.
Tip: To change the device’s default launch page to your current page, touch and tap
More > Settings > Set home page.
Web and Data 64
Note: The Browser automatically launches when a Web link is touched from within either an
email or text message.
Data Connection Status and Indicators
Your device displays the current status of your data connection through indicators at the top of
the screen. The following symbols are used:
Your device is connected to the high-speed 4G Sprint Mobile Broadband Network. When the
signal bands are animated, your device is scanning and connecting. During data transfer, the
animated icon is not used (for example, when you are opening a Web page).
When the signal bands are gray, your device is connected to the network, signal is weak.
When both the bands and the 4G icon are gray, you there is no coverage and you are
disconnected from the 4G network.
Your device is connected to the high-speed Sprint Mobile Broadband Network (3G). When the
signal bands are animated, your device is transferring data (for example, when you are opening
a Web page); when the signal bands are gray, your device is connected to the network but is
not currently transferring data (for example, when you are viewing a Web page that is
completely open). In either state, you can receive incoming calls.
If you do not see an indicator, your phone does not have a current data connection. To launch a
connection, see Launch a Web Connection.
Virtual Private Networks (VPN)
From your device, you can add, set up, and manage virtual private networks (VPNs) that allow
you to connect and access resources inside a secured local network, such as your corporate

RF & FCC & CITA Requirements
This part includes the Radio Frequency (RF) Energy instruction, FCC declaration, and CITA
requirements, which are all for your safety when using this device.
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
FCC Declaration
CITA Requirements
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
This device meets the governments requirements for exposure to radio waves.
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to
radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government.
The exposure standard for wireless device employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. *Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined
at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be
well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple
power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer
you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC when tested for body, as
described in this user guide, is 1.36W/kg for CDMA1900 band.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various
positions, they all meet the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this
device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: Q78-V55.
For body operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for
use the positions the device a minimum of 1.5cm from the body. Use of other enhancements
may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
FCC Declaration
