Your Phone 2
Using and Charging the Battery
Battery Capacity
Your Sprint PCS 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 2.9 hours of
continuous digital talk time (1 hour in analog) or approximately
168 hours of continuous digital standby time (15 hours in
analog).
Approximately five minutes before the battery charge level gets
too low to operate the phone, the battery sensor will let you
know by blinking an empty battery icon ( ), sounding an
audible alert and displaying a warning message. If you continue
to operate the phone without charging, the phone will turn off
automatically (after a three to five minute delay). If this
happens, your call will end.
Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode and
Browser 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 okay.
Installing the Battery
Your Sprint PCS phone comes with a LiIon battery. Follow these
steps to install it:
1. Place the battery on the back of the phone with the top of the
battery about 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch from the battery latch.
2. Gently push the battery toward the top of the phone until it
snaps into place.
Removing the Battery
To remove your battery for charging or for another reason, follow these easy steps:
1. Make sure the power is off by pressing and holding <End> so
you don’t lose any stored numbers or messages.
2. Press the battery release latch and slide the battery away from the latch.
3. Lift the battery away from the phone.
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. 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 a Sprint PCS-approved desktop charger, travel
charger or cigarette lighter adapter to charge your battery.
Warning! Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage to your
phone and void the warranty.
Using the Travel Adapter
Plug the connector of the supplied travel adapter into the serial
connector at the bottom of your phone, and then into the AC
wall outlet.
When the travel adapter is plugged in and charging the phone,
the phone displays a charging light and the battery icon starts to
blink. The phone can still be used while it is plugged into the
travel adapter, but this will cause the phone to charge more
slowly. To quickly charge the phone, turn the power off.
Using the Dual-Slot Desktop Charger
You can purchase an optional dual-slot desktop charger from the
local Sprint PCS Centers.
To use the desktop charger:
1. Plug the desktop charger’s power cord into a wall outlet.
2. Insert the phone (with the battery installed) into the front
slot of the charger.
Or, insert the battery alone into the rear slot.
The LED on the front of the dual-slot desktop charger indicates
the following:
. A red light indicates the battery is charging.
. A green light indicates the battery is at least 90 percent
charged.
. A yellow light indicates that the battery is operating at a
temperature that is too high or too low, or that there is a poor
connection. Make sure the phone is resting in the charger
slot.
It generally takes about four hours to fully recharge a completely
discharged battery. With the Sprint PCS-approved LiIon battery,
it is practical to recharge the battery before it becomes
completely discharged.
To get the quickest charge for any battery:
. Turn the phone off.
. Put the phone with the battery attached, into the front slot of
the charger.

Understanding Roaming
In This Section
. Understanding How Roaming Works
. Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode
. Setting an Alert When Roam Charges Apply (Call Guard)
. Setting Ringer for Roaming Calls
oaming is the ability to make or receive calls while you’re off
R
the Sprint PCS Nationwide Network. Your new dual-band
Sprint PCS phone works anywhere on the Sprint PCS Nationwide
Network and allows you to roam on analog and digital networks
virtually anywhere in the U.S. where compatible wireless service is
available.
This section explains how roaming works as well as special features
that let you manage your roaming experience.
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 or digital mode. The following chart
indicates what you’ll see depending on where you’re using your
phone.
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.
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you’re roaming on other digital networks, your call
quality and security 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.
Roaming on Analog Networks
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a
similar quality provided by other analog carriers today.
Although some 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:
. You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out
and dropped calls.
. Some calling features which are standard on the Sprint PCS
Network, such as Call Waiting, Sprint PCS Wireless Web and
direct international dialing, are unavailable.
. There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and
cloning) that exist with conventional analog services today.
. Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your
phone for analog roaming.
Tip: If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint 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 PCS Nationwide Network.
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.
Set Mode

phone to control your roaming experience:
1. Press <Menu> for the Main menu.
2. Press <7> for Setup and then <8> for Others. and <7> for Roaming
3. Press <1> for Set Mode. Using the navigation key, scroll to
select:
. Automatic: This setting seeks Sprint PCS Service. When
Sprint PCS Service is unavailable, it searches for an
alternative system.
. Roaming only :
.
This setting forces the phone to seek an analog
and a digital roaming system. The previous setting is restored
the next time the phone is turned on.
Sprint PCS: This setting allows you to select the Sprint PCS
Nationwide Network only and prevents roaming on other
networks.
4. Press <OK> to Save.
Setting an Alert When Roam Charges Apply (Call Guard)
In addition to the roaming icon, Call Guard alerts you when
roaming charges apply. This feature makes it easy to manage
your roaming charges by reminding you when you make or
receive roaming calls. It also requires you to take additional
steps before placing or answering a roaming call. These
additional steps are not required when you make or receive calls
while on the Sprint PCS Nationwide Network.
To turn the Call Guard feature on or off:
1. Press <Menu> for the Main menu.
2. Press <7> for Setup and then <8> for Others. and <7> for Roaming
3. Press <2> for Call Guard. Wait briefly until a message
prompt displays and then disappears from the display
screen.
4. Select Yes or No, and press <OK>.
. If the Yes option is chosen, an extra step is required to make
or take roaming calls.
. If the No option is chosen, no extra step is required to make
or take roaming calls.
To place the roaming calls with the Call Guard on:
1. From the Main menu (really???? not Standby mode??), dial 1
+ area code + the seven-digit number. (You can also initiate a
call from the Internal Phone Book, Call History or Sprint PCS
Web Messages) and press <Talk>.

network. If you are outside your coverage area and are in analog
mode, the time and date are not automatically updated. To set
the time and date in analog mode, see "Set Time".

Create Your Own Address Book
You can program up to 250 names into your address book and
with the advanced technology of Sprint PCS Voice Command –
you can have instant access to all of them.
There are four ways to update your address book:
. On the Web: Go to www.talk.sprintpcs.com and receive a
fully functional Web-based address book to create and
update your contacts.
. Use an Existing Address Book: Upload your contacts from
Microsoft
® Outlook,® Microsoft Excel and other personal
information software into your address book for no additional charge.
. Call Directory Assistance: If you don’t have a computer or
Internet access handy, you can have Sprint PCS Directory
Assistance look up phone numbers for you and
automatically add them to your address book. Just say, “Call
operator,” and we’ll add two names and numbers to your
address book for our standard directory assistance charge.
. Use Voice Recordings: Simply dial <*> <Talk> and say, “Add
name.” You will then be asked to say the name and number
you want to add to your personal address book. Your
address book can store up to 20 Voice Recordings at once.
How It Works
Once you’ve signed up for Sprint PCS Voice Command and
1.
created your address book, all you do is press <*> <Talk>.
You’ll hear a tone followed by the prompt “Ready.
2. After the “Ready” prompt, simply say, in a natural voice, the
name of the person or the number you’d like to call. For
example, you can say, “Call Jane at work,” “Call John on his
wireless phone,” “Call 555-1234” or “Look up Bob.”
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.

Using Caller ID
(Pls cfm!!!)
Caller ID lets you know who’s calling by displaying the number
of the person calling when your phone rings. If the caller’s name

if you call someone who has this feature your phone number
displays on their phone.

Call Waiting alerts you of incoming calls while you’re on a call
by sounding a beep. The display screen informs you that a call is
coming in and shows the caller’s phone number (if it’s available

To respond to an incoming call while you’re on a call:
. Press <Talk>. (This puts the first caller on hold and answers
