the remaining features that share memory. For example, saving many
calendar notes, may use all of the available memory. Your phone

shared memory feature. In this case, delete some of the information
or entries stored in the shared memory features before continuing.
Some of the features, such as ring tones, graphics, and applications
may have a certain amount of memory specially allotted to them in
addition to the memory shared with other features.
Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Vision Phone The Basics15
Turning Your Phone On and Off
Turning Your Phone On
To turn your phone on:
䊳 Press and hold the power button on the top
of your phone for approximately two seconds.
Once your phone is on, it displays “Searching for
Service” that indicates your phone is searching for
a signal. When your phone finds a signal, it
automatically enters the standby mode—the
phone’s idle state. At this point, you are ready to
begin making and receiving calls.
If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching,
a Power Save feature is automatically activated. When a signal is
found, your phone automatically returns to the standby mode.
In Power Save mode, your phone searches for a signal periodically
without your intervention. You can also initiate a search for
Sprint PCS Service by pressing any key (when your phone is turned
On).
Tip:
The Power Save feature helps to conserve your battery power when you
are in an area where there is no signal.
Turning Your Phone Off
To turn your phone off:
䊳 Press and hold for two seconds until you see “Goodbye” on
the display screen.
Your screen remains blank while your phone is off (unless the
battery charger is connected).
Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Vision Phone The Basics16
Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger
Battery Capacity
Your Sprint PCS Vision Phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon)
battery. It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully
drained. Operation times are estimates only and depend on signal
strength, phone use, network conditions, features used, battery age
and condition (including charging habits), temperatures to which
the battery is exposed, and many other factors.
The battery provides up to the following approximate maximum
usage times:
FunctionDigitalAnalog
Talk time Up to 2.35 hoursUp to 45 minutes
Standby timeUp to 7 daysUp to 20 hours
When the battery charge is getting low, the “Battery low. Please
recharge” message is displayed on your screen, and the phone
sounds a warning tone. When the battery has become too weak to
operate your phone, the message “Switching off. Please recharge” is
displayed on your screen.
Note:
Tip:
Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Vision Phone The Basics17
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, and
browser use affect the battery’s talk and standby times.
Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the
battery before it runs out of power.
Installing the Battery
To install the battery, replace the battery, or to access your phone’s
ESN (electronic serial number), you must first remove the phone
back cover.
Note:
Before removing the cover, always switch off the power and disconnect
the charger and any other device. Avoid touching electronic components
while changing the covers. Always store and use the device with the
covers attached.
To remove the back cover, press the release button down and push
the back cover away.
To install the LiIon battery:
1. Insert the battery (label side facing up) into the cavity at a
45-degree angle.( The metal contacts must be aligned with and
touching the metal prongs.)
2. Press down on the battery until it snaps into place.
Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Vision Phone The Basics18
Removing the Battery
To remove your battery:
1. Make sure the power is off so that you don’t lose any stored
numbers or messages.
2. To remove the back cover, turn the phone upside down, press
the release button down, and push the back cover away.
3. Pull upward on the lower end of the battery with your finger tip
and remove the battery from the phone at a 45-degree angle.
Charging the Battery
Your Sprint PCS Vision Phone’s LiIon battery is rechargeable and
should be charged 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.
Always use a Sprint-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.
The following charging times for the 780 mAh BLD-3 LiIon battery
are approximate:
䢇 ACP-7 Charger. Up to 3 hours charging time
䢇 ACP-12 Charger. Up to 1.5 hours charging time
Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Vision Phone The Basics19
Using the Desktop Charger
To use the desktop charger provided with your phone:
1. Install the phone battery in the phone.
2. Plug the prongs of the adapter into an electrical outlet.
3. Plug the round end of the AC
adapter into the desktop
charger and insert the phone
into the charger slot.
– or –
Plug the adapter directly into
the charger jack on the phone,
if the charger stand is not used. (If the phone is on, the screen
briefly displays a “Charging” message followed immediately by a
scrolling battery strength indicator. If the phone is off, the screen
displays “Phone off. Battery charging”.)
4. When the battery is fully charged, unplug the phone from the
charger. (If the phone is on, the battery strength indicator
stops scrolling. If the phone is off, the screen displays “Phone
off. Charge completed”.)
With the Sprint-approved LiIon battery, you can recharge the battery
before it becomes completely run down.
Warning!
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the device when not in
use. Do not leave the battery connected to the charger. Overcharging
may shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose
its charge over time. Temperature extremes can affect the ability of
your battery to charge.
Connecting Accessories
Headset accessories can be connected
using the Nokia Pop-Port connector. With
a headset and the keypad of your phone,
you can make and answer calls as usual.
Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Vision Phone The Basics20
Holding Your Phone Properly
Hold your phone by placing your index finger
on the lower back cover. This helps optimize
reception by preventing your hand from
obstructing the internal antenna.
As with any other radio transmitting device,
do not touch the antenna area unnecessarily
when using your phone. Avoiding contact
with the antenna area optimizes the antenna
performance and the battery life

You can place calls to 911 (dial and press ), even if
your phone is locked or your account is restricted.
Note:
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals,
wireless and landline networks, as well as user-programmed functions.
Because of this, connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed.
Therefore you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone for
essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies). Emergency calls
may not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain
network services and/or phone features are in use. Emergency numbers
vary by location. When making an emergency call, remember to give all
the necessary information as accurately as possible. Remember that
your wireless phone may be the only means of communication at the
scene of an accident. Do not end the call until given permission to do so.
If certain features are in use, you may first need to turn those features
off before you can make an emergency call. Consult this guide or
contact Sprint Customer Service.

⽧ Understanding Roaming
⽧ Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
⽧ Controlling Roaming Charges Using Call Guard
Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off the
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. Your new dual band/tri-mode
Sprint PCS Vision Phone works anywhere on the Sprint Nationwide
Network and allows you to roam on other analog and
PCS
1900 MHz and 800 MHz digital networks where we’ve implemented
roaming agreements with other carriers.
This section explains how roaming works as well as special
features that let you manage your roaming experience.
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience56
Understanding Roaming
Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network and whether your phone is operating
in analog or digital mode. The following chart indicates what you’ll
see depending on where you’re using your phone.
Roaming
Indicator
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network
Other Digital Networks
Analog Indicator
Analog Networks
Tip:
Note:
Remember, when you are using your phone off the Sprint Nationwide
PCS Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).
Unless your Sprint PCS Service Plan includes roaming, you will pay a
higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Analog Roaming
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality and
security will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls
on the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. However, you may not be
able to access certain features, such as Sprint PCS Vision.
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience57
Roaming on Analog Networks
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a similar
quality provided by other analog carriers today. Although some
features, such as Sprint PCS Vision and Sprint PCS Voice Command,
will be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access
voicemail. If you are accustomed to Sprint PCS Service, you may
notice some of the following differences when using analog service:
䢇 You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out, and
dropped calls.
䢇 Some features which are standard on the enhanced
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network, such as call waiting,
Sprint PCS Vision, and direct international dialing, are
unavailable.
䢇 Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are
roaming, you will not receive notification until you return to the
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. (See
"Checking for Voicemail
Messages While Roaming" on page 59.)
䢇 There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning)
that exist with conventional analog services today.
䢇 Your battery’s charge will deplete more quickly and you will
need to recharge it more often when you use your phone for
analog roaming.
Note:
If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint Nationwide 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 Nationwide PCS Network.
When using your phone in analog mode, the phone may feel warm. This
is normal for analog operation.
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience58
Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming
When you are roaming off the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network, you
will not receive on-phone notification of new voicemail messages.
Callers can still leave messages, but you will need to periodically
check your voicemail for new messages if you are in a roaming
service area for an extended period of time.
To check your voicemail while roaming:
1. Dial 1+area code+your Sprint PCS Phone Number.
2. When you hear your voicemail greeting, press .
3. Enter your pass code at the prompt and follow the voice prompts.
When you return to the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network, voicemail
notification will resume as normal.
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience59
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/tri-mode
phone to control your roaming experience.
To set your phone’s roam mode:
1. Press Menu, scroll to Settings, and press Select.
2. Scroll to Roaming and press Select.
3. Scroll to Set mode and press Select.
4. To select an option, highlight it and press Select.
䡲 Sprint allows you to access the enhanced
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network only and prevents
roaming on other networks.
䡲 Automatic seeks Sprint PCS Service. When Sprint PCS
Service is unavailable, the phone searches for an alternate
system.
䡲 Analog Only forces the phone to seek an analog roaming
system. The previous setting (Sprint or Automatic) is
restored the next time the phone is turned on.
Note:
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience60
To access the phone’s main menu, press Menu from the standby mode.
Menu items may be selected by highlighting them with the navigation
key and pressing Select.
Controlling Roaming Charges Using
Call Guard
Your phone has two ways of alerting you when you are roaming off
the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network: the roaming icon and Call
Guard. Call Guard makes it easy to manage your roaming charges by
requiring an extra step before you can place or answer a roaming
call. (This additional step is not required when you make or receive
calls while on the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network.)
To turn Call Guard on or off:
1. Press Menu, scroll to Settings, and press Select.
2. Scroll to Roaming and press Select.
3. Scroll to Call guard and press Select.
4. Highlight On or Off and press Select.
Note:
.
Reminder:
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience61
Voice Dialing and Speed Dialing are not available when you are roaming
with Call Guard enabled.
To place roaming calls with Call Guard on:
1. From the standby mode, enter a phone number. (You can also
initiate a call from the Phone Book and Call Logs.)
2. Press . (The message “Roaming rate applies. Place call?”
is displayed.)
3. Press OK to place the call.
To answer incoming roaming calls with Call Guard on:
1. To answer a roaming call (the message “Roam call” is
displayed), press Answer. (The message “Roam rate applies.
Answer call?” is displayed.)
2. Press OK to accept the call.
If the Call Guard feature is set to On, you need to take extra steps to
make and receive roaming calls, even if you have selected the
Analog setting. (See "Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode" on page 60).
