Charging the Battery

Your Sprint 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 ( ) blinks and the phone sounds a
warning tone.

Always use a Sprint PCS-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 Desktop Charger

When you are ready to charge your battery, it is vital that you use only
Sprint PCS-approved Desktop Chargers and AC Adapter Chargers. To use
the Desktop Charger provided with your phone:

1. Plug the round end of the AC adapter into the charger holder and the

other end into the electrical outlet.

2. Insert the phone (with the battery installed) into the slot.

䊳

Ared light on the charger lets you know the battery is charging.

䊳

A green light lets you know that the battery is at least 90 percent
charged.

It takes approximately three hours to fully recharge a completely
rundown battery. With the Sprint PCS-approved LiIon battery, it is okay to
recharge the battery before it becomes completely run down.

Getting to Know

Your Phone

Using the Battery

Battery Capacity

Your Sprint PCS Phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery.
It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. The battery
provides approximately 150 minutes of continuous digital talk time
(70 minutes in analog) or approximately 150 hours of continuous digital
standby time (10 hours in analog).

When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon blinks. When
there are approximately two minutes of talk time left, the phone sounds
an audible alert every 30 seconds and then powers down.

Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode and

Browser use affect the battery’s talk and standby times.

Tip: Be sure to charge your phone’s battery and watch your indicator to

ensure your levels are okay.

Installing the Battery

Your Sprint PCS Phone comes with a LiIon battery. Follow these steps to
install it:

1. Place the battery in the opening at a 45-degree angle with the metal

contacts at the bottom, facing downward.

2. Gently press down on the battery until the latch snaps into place.

Removing the Battery

To remove your battery for charging, or for any other reason, follow these
easy steps:

1. Make sure the power is off so that you don’t lose any stored numbers or

messages.

2. Push the battery release latch up.

3. Remove the battery from the phone at a 45-degree angle.

oaming is the ability to make or receive calls while you’re off the
Sprint PCS Nationwide Network. Your new dual band Sprint PCS Phone

TM

works anywhere on the Sprint PCS Nationwide Network and allows you to
roam on analog and digital networks virtually anywhere in the U.S. where
compatible wireless service is available.

This section explains how roaming works as well as special features that let
you manage your roaming experience.

Section 3

Understanding

Roaming

䊳

There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning) that
exist with conventional analog services today.

䊳

Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your phone for
analog roaming.

Tip: If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint PCS Network and enter

an area where roaming is available (whether digital or analog), 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
Sprint PCS Nationwide Network.

Note: When using your phone in analog mode, the handset may feel

warm. This behavior is normal for analog operation.

Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode

Your Sprint PCS Phone allows you to control your ability to roam. By
using the

Roaming menu option, you can determine which signals your

phone accepts.

Set Mode

Choose from three different settings on your dual-band phone to control
your roaming experience:

1. From the main menu, highlight Roaming and press .

2. Highlight Set Mode and press .

3. To select an option, highlight it and press .

䊳

Sprint PCS: This setting allows you to select the Sprint PCS Nationwide

Network only and prevents roaming on other networks.

䊳

Automatic: This setting seeks Sprint PCS Service. When Sprint PCS

Service is unavailable, the phone searches for an alternative system.

䊳

Analog Only: This setting forces the phone to seek an analog roaming

system. The previous setting is restored the next time the phone is
turned on.

Analog Networks

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

Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).

Note: You will pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.

Roaming on Other Digital Networks

When you’re roaming on other digital networks, your call quality and
security will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls while
on the Sprint PCS Network. You may not be able to access certain calling
features, such as Sprint PCS Wireless Web.

Roaming on Analog Networks

When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a similar quality
provided by other analog carriers today. Although some calling features,
such as Sprint PCS Wireless Web, may be unavailable, you can still make
and receive calls. You will experience a few differences:

䊳

You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out and
dropped calls.

䊳

Some calling features which are standard on the Sprint PCS Network,
such as Call Waiting, Sprint PCS Wireless Web and direct international
dialing, are unavailable.

In addition to the roaming icon, Call Guard alerts you when roaming
charges apply. This feature makes it easy to manage your roaming
charges by reminding you when you make or receive roaming calls. It
also requires you to take additional steps before placing or answering a
roaming call. These additional steps are not required when you make or
receive calls while on the Sprint PCS Nationwide Network.

To Turn the Call Guard Feature On or Off:

1.

From the main menu, highlight Roaming and press .

2. Highlight Call Guard and press .

Call Directory Assistance: If you don’t have a computer or Internet

access handy, you can have Sprint PCS Directory Assistance look up
phone numbers for you and automatically add them to your address
book. Just say, “Call operator,” and we’ll add two names and numbers
to your address book for our standard directory assistance charge.

䊳

Use Voice Recordings: Simply dial and say, “Add name.”

You will then be asked to say the name and number you want to add to
your personal address book. Your address book can store up to 20
names at once.

How It Works

1.

Once you’ve signed up for Sprint PCS Voice Command and created your
address book, all you do is press . You’ll hear a tone followed
by the prompt “Ready.”

2. After the “Ready” prompt, simply say, in a natural voice, the name of

the person or the number you’d like to call. For example, you can say,
“Call Jane at work,” “Call John on the mobile phone,” “Call 555-1234”
or “Look up Bob.”

3. The number will automatically be dialed. Keep in mind that Sprint PCS

Voice Command recognizes not only your voice, but any voice, so that
others can experience the same convenience if they use your phone.

䊳

The Sprint PCS Wireless Web Browser allows you to view specially-

designed versions of popular web sites.

䊳

Sprint PCS Wireless Web Mail lets you send and receive e-mail

up-to-the minute information through the Sprint PCS Wireless Web.

You can view specially-designed text versions of popular Internet sites,
including Yahoo!

®

Browsing the Sprint PCS Wireless Web using your phone is rather different
from using a home computer because sites display specialized text and

appears on the display whenever a call is in progress, just as with a regular
voice call. Service charges vary depending on your service option.

You may notice that sometimes the Browser will launch without placing a
call. This is because the phone stores recently viewed pages in its memory
cache. The Browser will connect automatically when you access a page
that's not stored in the cache.

If the phone has been inactive for awhile and a new wireless Internet site
has not been requested, the Browser will automatically disconnect. The
Browser will remain active – only the connection will end. The Browser
will automatically reconnect when you go to a wireless Internet site that's
not stored in the phone's memory cache. For this reason, you may find
that you are billed for several network connections within a single session.
This is normal and is designed to minimize airtime charges.

When launching the Browser, you may need to take an extra step or see a
reminder that Browser calls will be charged. (See “Web Guard” below for
more information.)

The Web Guard requires you to take an extra step each time you launch or
exit the Browser. To change your Web Guard setting:

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

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:

䊳

Get to know your phone and its features, such as speed dial and redial.

䊳

When available, use a hands-free device.

䊳

Position your phone within easy reach.

䊳

Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the
call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions.

䊳

Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.

䊳

Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when stationary or before
pulling into traffic.

䊳

Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may divert your
attention from the road.

䊳

Dial to report serious emergencies. It’s free from your
wireless phone.

䊳

Use your phone to help others in emergencies.

䊳

Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless number when
necessary.

Tip: Purchase an optional Hands-Free Car Kit.

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.

Section 15

Knowing Performance and Safety Guidelines 117

Performance

and Safety

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.

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.

Knowing Radiofrequency Safety

The design of your Sprint 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 hybrid standard
consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the
National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).

Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak Performance

There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and
maintaining safe, satisfactory service.

䊳

Hold the phone with the antenna raised, fully-extended and over your shoulder.

䊳

Try not to hold, bend or twist the phone’s antenna.

䊳

Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged.

䊳

Speak directly into the mouthpiece.

Caring for the Battery

Protecting Your Battery

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

䊳

Use only Sprint PCS-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.

䊳

In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from
32º F to 113º F (0º C to 45º C).

䊳

Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as
the bathroom.

䊳

Never dispose of the battery by incineration.

䊳

Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.

䊳

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

䊳

The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time.

䊳

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.

䊳

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:
4º F to 113º F (-20º C to 45º C)

Disposal of Lithium Ion (LiIon) Batteries

For safe disposal options of your LiIon batteries, contact your nearest Sprint PCS­authorized 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.

Note: For safety, do not handle a damaged or leaking LiIon battery.

Section 15

Knowing Performance and Safety Guidelines 119

15

Performance

and Safety

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 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:

䊳

Fueling areas such as gas stations.

䊳

Below deck on boats.

䊳

Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.

䊳

Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or metal
powders.

䊳

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 Sprint 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.

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.

Cautions

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.

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.

Body-Worn Operation

To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a handset on
your body, use the Sprint PCS supplied or approved carrying case, holster or other
body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure that the antenna
is at least one inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use of non­Sprint PCS approved accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.

For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC web site at www.fcc.gov.

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 that 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 TP5250 are:
AMPS mode (Part 22) - Head: 0.93 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.51 W/kg

PCS mode (Part 24) - Head: 1.14 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.21 W/kg

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 ter minated 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.

Wireless Web and Voice Portal Services.Wireless Web Services are part of the

Services that can be obtained through Sprint.Wireless Web Services are not
available in all markets or while roaming off the Sprint Nationwide PCS
Network.Use of Wireless Web Services requires an Internet-ready PCS Phone
or certain other equipment (or both) and is subject to any memory,storage or
other limitation in the phone or other equipment.Wireless Web Services are
not available on PCS Vision phones or devices.The Caller ID blocking feature
is not available when using Wireless Web Services.Any use of Wireless Web
Services deducts from your Service Plan minutes. For data calls (including
Wireless Web and Voice Portal calls) that are attempted,but not completed,
you are charged for the time during which the network attempts to connect
the call.You are charged for time spent connected to the Wireless Web or
Voice Portal,including time spent browsing on the Internet or Voice Portal
and reviewing or scrolling through Internet information on-line while still

required before we invoice the credit card or debit the bank account for all
amounts due to us or billed by us on behalf of a third party.You must promptly
notify us of any change in your invoicing address or of the credit card or bank
account used for payment.We reserve the right to require payment by money
order,cashier's check or other secured form of payment.If we take action to
receive payment beyond invoicing you for charges for Services or equipment,
you must pay our costs and expenses of collection,including attorneys' fees
and expenses,the fees of any collection agency and court costs.If we act as an
invoicing agent for a third-party service provider,payments received are first
applied to amounts due and owing to us and any remaining amounts are
applied to sums due and owing to the third-party service provider.We may
immediately charge an additional fee for any check or other negotiable
instrument endorsed by you and returned unpaid by a financial institution for
any reason.You may be charged fees for certain methods of payment.

Late 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.You may notify us of any dispute by notifying PCS Customer
Service Solutions.Calls to our sales or general business offices are not notice
of a dispute.If disputed invoice procedures are described on the invoice,you
must follow them.

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. Contact PCS
Customer Service Solutions for information about authorized methods of
making these payments.We may charge you a fee for calls that involve our live
customer care services.If we provide Services to you on an Account Spending
Limit basis,Services and coverage may be limited in certain ways.You must

responsible for all charges for Services provided to the Number for the lost or
stolen equipment before you notify us of the loss or theft.We will deactivate
Services to the Number upon notification to us of any loss or theft.You may be
required to provide evidence of the loss or theft (for example,a police report
or sworn statement).If the equipment is later found,we may require that you
exchange it for another phone or other equipment before we reactivate
Services (if we do reactivate Services),as well as require you to pay a
reactivation fee.We will deactivate Services to any Number without prior
notice to you if we suspect any unlawful or fraudulent use of the Number.You
agree to cooperate reasonably with us in investigating suspected unlawful or
fraudulent use.

Messages.You will incur airtime usage charges when accessing your

voicemail from your PCS Phone.You may also incur charges in accessing text
messages from your PCS Phone.You may access your voicemail without
incurring airtime usage charges by checking your voicemail from a wireline
phone.We may impose limits on the number of voicemail or text message that
can be retained through your PCS account.Audible or visual indicators of text
or voicemail messages,including mailbox icons on your PCS Phone,may not
always provide an up to date indication of new messages.In certain instances,
you may be required to manually reset or clear your mailbox indicator.

Caller ID. If you do not want people you call to receive the Number assigned

to your phone,you must call PCS Customer Service Solutions for information
about automatic Caller ID blocking.The Number assigned to your phone can
be blocked on a per-call basis by dialing *67 + Destination Number + TALK (or
similar key),but Caller ID deliver y resumes on the next call you make.Caller
ID display on incoming calls to your Number depends on receiving the
information from the calling party.

TTY Access.A TTY (also known as 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 by
telephone.TTY doesn't work with all PCS Phones.If you have a PCS TTY­capable phone,it may not function effectively,or at all, when attempting 911
calls due to the equipment or software of the answering agency.Therefore,a
TTY device should not be relied on for 911 calls.

Pay-Per-Call Service.We will not complete calls from your Number to 900,

976 and similar numbers for pay-per-call services.

International Calling.You may be limited in the international destinations that

you can call with Services.You should contact PCS Customer Ser vice
Solutions for information about international destinations that you cannot
call.

Limitation of Liability. Except as otherwise provided in this section,our sole

liability to you for any loss or damage arising out of providing or failing to
provide Services (including mistakes,omissions, interruptions,delays,error s,
or defects) does not exceed (1) in cases related to a specific piece of
equipment,the prorated MRC for Services to the piece of equipment during

be accessed and you may receive an error message if you attempt to access a
site that cannot be accessed through Wireless Web Services.You are also
charged for Wireless Web connections to review your PCS account
information.Wireless Web Services are not available with all Service Plans.
Sprint is not responsible for any opinions,advice,statements, services or
other information provided by third-parties and accessible through Wireless
Web Services or Voice Portal Services.Neither Sprint nor its vendors or
licensors guarantees the accuracy,completeness or usefulness of information
that is obtained through the Wireless Web Services or Voice Portal Services.
You are responsible for evaluating such content.

Taxes and Surcharges.We invoice you for taxes,fees and other charges levied

by or remitted directly to federal,state or local authorities,or foreign
government on Services including,without limitation, sales,gross receipts,
use,and excise taxes.If you claim any tax exemption,you must provide us
with a valid tax-exempt document.Any tax exemption applies only from the
date we receive a valid tax-exempt document.We also invoice you for fees
that we collect and remit to the government such as Universal Service,and for
surcharges that we collect and keep to pay for the costs of complying with
government mandates such as number pooling and portability,and Enhanced
911 service.These charges are neither taxes nor government imposed
assessments.

Roaming. Calls made while off the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network are

"roaming" calls.Your PCS Phone is specifically designed and engineered to
work only on the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network.It works on another CDMA
PCS provider's system only when a roaming agreement is in place between
Sprint and the other providers.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 dual­band phone is set to roam automatically when outside PCS coverage,you may
incur roaming fees within a PCS coverage area.Certain features and services
may not be available when roaming (including PCS Vision, voicemail,call
waiting,call forwarding,etc.).

Phones and Other Equipment. Phones and other equipment may be purchased

and returned as provided in the purchase documents.We are not the
manufacturer of the phones or other equipment.The only warranties on the
phones or other equipment are any limited warranties extended by the
manufacturers.We have no liability in connection with the phones and other
equipment or for the manufacturers' acts or omissions.

Lost or Stolen Equipment. If your phone or other equipment is lost or stolen,

you must notify us by calling PCS Customer Service Solutions.You are

incurred by us arising from any actions or claims to which this
indemnification applies,or from the contesting of the applicability of this
provision.This section survives termination of this Agreement.

expedited procedures prescribed by the applicable rules will apply.Any
required hearing fees and costs shall be paid by the parties as required by the
applicable rules or as required by applicable law,but the arbitrator shall have
the power to apportion such costs as the arbitrator deems appropriate.The
arbitrator's decision and award will be final and binding (subject to the
appeal clause below),and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator
may be entered in any court with jurisdiction.

An appeal may be taken under the CPR Arbitration Appeal Procedure from
any final award of any arbitral panel in any arbitration arising out of or related
to this agreement that is conducted in accordance with the requirements of
such Appeal Procedure.Unless otherwise agreed by the parties and the
appeal tribunal,the appeal shall be conducted at the place of the orig inal
arbitration.

If any party files a judicial or administrative action asserting a claim that is
subject to arbitration and another party successfully stays such action or
compels arbitration,the party filing that action must pay the other party's
costs and expenses incurred in seeking such stay or compelling arbitration,
including attorney's fees.
