Features of Your Sprint PCS Voice Phone
Congratulations on the purchase of your Sprint PCS Voice Phone.
The V-6016i by Nokia is lightweight, easy-to-use, and reliable, and it
offers many significant features and service options. The following
list previews some of those features and options and provides page
numbers where you can find out more:
䢇 Dual-band/tri-mode capability allows you to make and receive
calls while on the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network and to roam
on other analog and 800 and 1900 MHz digital networks where
Sprint has implemented roaming agreements (
Roaming Experience” on page 53).
䢇 SMS Text Messaging provides quick and convenient text
messaging capabilities (“Using SMS Text Messaging” on page

A note about Memory:
The following features may share memory: contacts, text, graphics
and ringers, calendar to-do notes, games, and applications. Use of
one or more of these features may reduce the memory available for
the remaining features that share memory. For example, saving many
calendar notes may use all of the available memory. Your phone may
display a message that the memory is full when you try to use a
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 Phone - The Basics15
Turning Your Phone On and Off
Turning Your Phone On
To turn your phone on:
䊳 Press and hold the power key 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
Service by pressing any key (when your phone is turned On).
PCS
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 Phone - The Basics16
Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger
Battery Capacity
Your Sprint PCS Voice Phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion)
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 the following approximate maximum
usage times:
FunctionDigital (PCS)Analog
Talk timeUp to 3.5 hoursUp to 95 minutes
Standby timeUp to 15 daysUp to 26 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 Phone - The Basics17
Long backlight settings, searching for service, and vibrate mode 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, turn the phone upside down, press the
release button down, and push the back cover away.
To install the Li-Ion battery:
1. Insert the battery into the cavity at a 45-degree angle with its
metal contacts aligned with the phone’s metal contacts.
2. Press down gently until the battery snaps into place.
Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS 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. Lift upward on the lower end of the battery with your finger tip
and remove the battery from the phone.
Charging the Battery
Your Sprint PCS Voice Phone’s Li-Ion 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 upperright 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 1070 mAh BL-6C Li-Ion battery
are approximate:
䢇 ACP-12 Charger. Up to 1 hour and 45 minutes charging time
Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS 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. The screen displays “Phone off. Charge
completed” if the phone is off.)
With the Sprint-approved Li-Ion 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 universal headset jack on the side
of your phone or the Nokia Pop-Port
connector. Using the headset and the
keypad of your phone, you can make and
answer calls as usual.
Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS 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.
Extending the whip antenna may improve
reception in weak signal areas.
Note:
As with any other radio transmitting device, do not touch the antennae
unnecessarily when the phone is switched on.

Note:
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals,

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

speech or language disabilities, to communicate by telephone.
Your phone is compatible with TTY devices that comply with the
TSB 121 industry standard. Please check with the manufacturer of
your TTY device to ensure that it supports digital wireless
transmission. Your Nokia phone is equipped with a universal 2.5mm
accessory jack that can be used to connect to the cable of a “cellular
ready” or “cellular compatible” TTY/TDD device. If this cable was not
provided with your TTY device, contact your TTY device
manufacturer to purchase the connector cable.
When establishing your Sprint PCS Service, please call Sprint
Customer Service via the state Telecommunications Relay Service
(TRS) by first dialing . Then provide the state TRS
with this number: 866-727-4889.
To connect your TTY device:
1. Confirm that your TTY device is “cellular ready” or “cellular
compatible” and that you have the proper connecting cable,
supplied by the manufacturer of your TTY device.
2. Plug the 3.5mm end of the cable into the input jack of the
TTY device, and plug the 2.5mm end of the cable into the
2.5mm universal jack of your Nokia phone.
To turn the TTY mode on or off:
1. Connect the TTY/TDD device to your phone.
2. Press .
3. Follow the prompts by pressing OK or Exit.
4. Select Ye s to turn on the TTY mode and dial the contact’s number.

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

Sprint PCS Voice Phone works anywhere on the Sprint Nationwide
PCS Network and allows you to roam on other analog and 1900

Understanding Roaming
Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the

in analog or digital mode. The following chart indicates what you’ll
see depending on where you’re using your phone.
Roaming

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.
Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience54
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 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 Sprint Nationwide PCS
Network, such as call waiting, 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 56.)
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 Experience55
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.

Using the Stopwatch
The stopwatch has two timing modes; split timing and lap timing.
Note:
Using the stopwatch consumes the battery and the phone’s operating
time will be reduced. Be careful not to let it run in the background when
performing other operations with your phone.
Split Timing
Split timing allows you to use the stopwatch to measure total
elapsed time while also measuring the elapsed time at intervals that
began at the start of an event. The most recent split time is shown
on the line below the total elapsed time.
To measure split times:
1. From the Organizer menu, scroll to Stopwatch, and
press Select.
2. Scroll to Split timing and press Select.
3. Press Start to start the stopwatch. (The elapsed time from the start
of the event is displayed.)
4. Press Split to start timing the next interval. (The top line of the
display shows the total elapsed time from the start of the event.
The second line shows the elapsed time from the start of the
event to when Split was last pressed. Pressing Split again starts a
new interval.)
5. Press Stop to stop the stopwatch.
6. Press Options, then scroll to Start, Save, or Reset, and press Select.
(If Save is selected, enter a name for the event in the text box and
press OK.)

Lap Timing
Lap timing allows you to use the stopwatch to measure total elapsed
time while also measuring each individual lap. The last recorded lap
is shown on the line below the total time.
To measure lap times:
1. From the Organizer menu, scroll to Stopwatch, and
press Select.
2. Scroll to Lap timing and press Select.
3. Press Start to start the stopwatch. (The time from the start of the
lap is displayed.)
4. Press Lap to stop timing the first lap and start timing the next lap.
(The top line of the display shows the elapsed time for the current
lap. The second line shows the time for the last lap. Pressing Lap
again stops timing the last lap and starts timing a new lap.)
5. Press Stop to stop the stopwatch. (The top line of the display
switches from showing the current lap time to showing the total
time of all laps.)
6. Press Options, scroll to Start, Save, or Reset, and press Select. (If
Save is selected, enter a name for the event in the text box and press OK.)
