Note: Your service provider programs one or more emergency phone numbers (such as 911 or
112) that you can call under any circumstances, even when your phone is locked. Emergency numbers vary by country. Your pre-programmed emergency number(s) may not work in all locations, and sometimes an emergency call cannot be placed due to network, environmental, or interference issues.

2. Enter the emergency number (for example, 911).
3. Touch Call to call the emergency number.

Enhanced 911 (E911) Information
This phone features an embedded Global Positioning System (GPS) chip necessary for utilizing E911 emergency location services where available.
When you place an emergency 911 call, the GPS feature of your phone seeks information to calculate your approximate location. Depending on several variables, including availability and access to satellite signals, it may take up to 30 seconds or more to determine and report your approximate location.
Important: Always report your location to the 911 operator when placing an emergency call.
Some designated emergency call takers, known as Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) may not be equipped to receive GPS location information from your phone.

Sprint Direct Connect offers instant, two-way push-to-talk (PTT) communication between you and your family, friends, and co-workers, all at the click of a button. Perfect for get-in/get-out conversations such as checking status, getting information, getting directions or coordinating with others—fast. And Call Alert sends a repeating alert to other Direct Connect subscribers to let them know you want to reach them.

Your Direct Connect Number

Your Direct Connect number may be the same as your phone number (for example, 555-555-
1234) or it may be a separate number comprising three sets of digits separated by asterisks (for example, 444*5555*111).
If you have a separate Direct Connect number, callers will have to enter the asterisks when placing a Direct Connect call.
To find your Direct Connect number:
► Touch Dialer > Contacts > Menu > More > My info. Your Direct Connect
number will be listed.
Sprint Direct Connect 24
Page 36

Dial Direct Connect Numbers

● If the person you are calling has a separate number for Direct Connect, make sure you dial any asterisks (*) in the number. If you are saving the number in your Contacts, choose DC for the phone type.
● If the person you are calling has a single number for both voice calls and for Direct Connect, use that 10-digit phone number to make Direct Connect calls. You do not need to add any asterisks (*) to the number. If you are saving this number in your contacts, choose Mobile for the phone type.
Tip: Users with Nextel phones must add asterisks (*) between sets of numbers to dial Direct
Connect numbers. Make sure to tell your contacts with Nextel phones to dial the 10-digit number using asterisks (*) in place of hyphens (for example, 555*555*1234). To easily ensure that your contact has your correct number, call them so that they can save your number.

Make a Direct Connect Callby Entering a Number

1. Touch Dialer to enter a Direct Connect number. The Direct Connect number may be the 10-digit wireless phone number of the
person you are calling. —or—
If calling a Nextel Direct Connect customer, or a Sprint customer with a unique DC

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 device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase the connector cable.
To turn TTY Mode on or off:
► Touch Menu > Settings > Call settings > TTY mode and select an option.
For additional information about Sprint Relay Services and TTY compatibility, call Sprint Relay Customer Service at 800-676-3777 or visit sprintrelay.com.
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.

Battery Capacity

Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained.
Your phone warns you with a audible alert when the battery reaches 15% and 5% of its capacity. When there are approximately two minutes of talk time left, the phone plays another alert and then turns off.
Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, browser use, and other
variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby times.
Tip: Watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the battery before it runs out of
power.

Installing the Battery

See Set Up Your Phone.

Removing the Battery

1. Make sure the power is off so that you don’t lose any stored numbers or messages.
2. Remove the back cover by pulling up from the notch at the bottom, and then remove the battery from the phone.
Warning: Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can be burned.

Charging the Battery

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 any information you were just working on.
Always use a Sprint-approved or Motorola desktop charger, travel charger, or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.
1. Insert the small end of the USB cord into the charger/accessory jack on the left side of your phone.
2. Insert the larger end of the USB cord into the AC adapter.
3. Plug the AC adapter into an electrical outlet and charge for at least three hours.
With the Sprint-approved Li-Ion battery, you can recharge the battery before it becomes completely run down.

Location & Security Settings

My Location

Your phone is equipped with a Location feature for use in connection with location-based services.
The Location feature allows the network to detect your position. Turning Location off will hide your location from everyone, except 911.
Note: Turning Location on will allow the network to detect your position using GPS technology,
making some Sprint applications and services easier to use. Turning Location off will disable the GPS location function for all purposes except 911, but will not hide your general location based on the cell site serving your call. No application or service may use your location without your request or permission. GPS-enhanced 911 is not available in all areas.
To enable your phone’s Location feature:
