Note:

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode and MiniBrowser 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 OK.

Using the Battery

Battery Capacity

Your Sprint PCS Touchpoint 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 (16 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 and then powers down.

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.

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’ll lose everything 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 gets too low, the battery icon blinks and the phone sounds a warning tone.

Always use the Sprint PCS-approved Desktop Charger, Travel Charger or Cigarette Lighter Adapter to charge your battery.

Using the Desktop Charger

When you’re 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:

Warning!

Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage to your phone and void the warranty.

Getting to Know

Your Phone

Removing the Battery

To remove your battery 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.

Section 2

1166 GGeettttiinngg ttoo KKnnooww YYoouurr SSpprriinntt PPCCSS PPhhoonnee

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

A red 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.

Tip!

Remember, when you’re 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.

Note:

If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint PCS Network and enter an area where roaming is available (whether CDMA or analog cellular), 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.

Understanding How Roaming Works

Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the Sprint PCS Network and whether your phone is operating in analog cellular or digital mode. The following chart indicates what you’ll see depending on where you’re using your phone.

Roaming Analog Indicator Indicator

Sprint PCS Nationwide Network

Other CDMA Networks

Analog Cellular Networks

Roaming on Other PCS CDMA Networks

When you’re roaming on other PCS CDMA networks, your call quality 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; however, all of your calls are still private and secure.

Roaming on Analog Cellular Networks

When you roam on analog cellular networks,your phone will flash

Analog Roam and you will experience the same

quality provided by analog cellular carriers today. Although certain calling features, such as Sprint PCS Wireless Web, may be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls. You will experience a few differences including:

䊳

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

䊳

Some calling features that are standard on the Sprint PCS Network are unavailable.

䊳

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

䊳

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

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 determine

which signals your phone accepts.

Setting the Mode

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

1. From the main menu, highlight Roamingand

press .

2. 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, it 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.

Note:

When using your phone in analog mode, the handset may feel warm. This behavior is normal for analog operation.

There are three ways to update your address book:

3. The number will automatically be dialed. Keep in mind

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