Getting to Know the Touch Screen

Touch key sensors are very sensitive and require only a light touch — you don’t need to press them forcefully to use them. Pressing touch keys too hard may damage the touch keypad.

The touch screen is automatically locked when the backlight is off. To lock manually, press the lock button on the right side of the phone.

TTY Use With Sprint Service

Talk

A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a 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 is compatible with digital cell phones. 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 de your TTY device manufacturer to purchase the connector cable.

When establishing your Sprint service, please call Sprint Customer Service via the state Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first

7-1-1 . Then provide the state TRS with

dialing this number:

866-727-4889.

To turn TTY Mode on or off:

Note: In TTY Mode, your phone will display the TTY access

icon when the TTY device is plugged into the phone.

When enabled, TTY mode may impair the audio quality of non-TTY devices connected to the headset jack.

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 software used by PSAPs. This matter has been brought to the attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry and the PSAP community are currently working to resolve this.
