Dual-Band Tri Mode PCS Phone Model SPH-I330

Important Information Regarding the Local Serial Connection

For the i330 to properly HotSync with another computer, it must be setup to connect using the Local Serial option in the HotSync configuration settings. If this option is not selected, the i330 will not connect to the other computer. The cable that connects the two devices was designed to connect to a USB connector, thus allowing easier installation. It does not however use a USB connection to HotSync the two devices together. The devices still use a Local Serial connection to transfer and receive data. To properly configure this option, see "Perform a HotSync the First Time" on page 150.

Using the Battery

Battery Capacity

Your 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 2.5 hours of continuous digital talk time (1 hour in analog) or approximately 96 hours of continuous digital standby time (14 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 every 30 seconds and then powers down.

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 PCS Phone comes with a LiIon battery. Follow these steps to install it:

1. Place the battery on the back of the phone, making sure that the

plastic tabs are aligned with the corresponding holes in the phone.

2. Gently push the battery down until it snaps into place.

Removing the Battery

To remove your battery for charging or for another reason, follow these easy steps:

Section 2: Understanding Your Phone

2A: Your PCS Phone - The Basics 24

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 and pull the battery away from the

phone at a 45 degree angle.

Charging the Battery

Your 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 upperright corner of your phone’s display screen. If the battery charge is getting too low, the battery icon ( ) blinks and t he phone sounds a warning tone.

There is also an internal backup battery that saves all the settings in the phone when the regular battery is discharged. An internal backup battery needs to be charged initially for 24 hours. To make sure the internal battery is charged, do not disconnect the main battery from the phone for 24 hours.

Note: The internal battery will maintain data for 15 hours.

Section 2: Understanding Your Phone

2A: Your PCS Phone - The Basics 25

Always use a Sprint-approved desktop charger, travel adapter or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.

Warning! Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage to your

phone and void the warranty.

It is vital that you use only the PCS-approved desktop charger specifically designed for your phone. Use of unauthorized accessories could damage your phone and invalidate your warranty.

To use the desktop charger provided with your phone:

1. Plug the adapter in the wall and set the phone in the cradle.

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.

䊳 A yellow light indicates that the battery is operating at a

temperature that is too high or low, or that the charger is not plugged in correctly. Please check the charger and the battery.

It takes about 4 hours to fully recharge a completely rundown battery.

Connecting the Cradle

Your package includes a cradle for charging the battery and synchronizing the Sprint PCS Phone™ with a desktop or laptop computer. If you do not plan to synchronize the Sprint PCS Phone™ with a desktop computer, the cradle can be used as a battery charger only. When the cradle is plugged into a wall outlet, the battery charger is fully functional.

Note: Before you connect the i330 to the desktop/laptop computer, make

sure you install the i330 software drivers from the installation CD.

Connecting the Cradle to a Desktop Computer

PCS Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).

Tips for Scheduling Repeating Events

䊳 If you change the start date of a repeating event, your phone

calculates the number of days you moved the event. Your phone then automatically changes the end date to maintain the duration of the repeating event.

䊳 If you change the repeat interval (e.g., daily to weekly) of a repeating

event, past occurrences (prior to the day on which you change the setting) are not changed, and your phone creates a new repeating event.

Section 2: Understanding Your Phone

2H: Personal Organizer 85

䊳 If you change the date of an occurrence of a repeating event (e.g.,

from January 14 to January 15) and apply the change to all occurrences, the new date becomes the start date of the repeating event. Your phone adjusts the end date to maintain the duration of the event.

䊳 If you change other repeat settings (for example, time, alarm,

private) of a repeating event and apply the change to all occurrences, your phone creates a new event. The start date of this new event is the day on which the setting is changed. Past occurrences (prior to the day of the change) are not changed.

䊳 If you apply a change to a single occurrence of a repeating event

(e.g., time), that occurrence no longer shows the Repeat icon.
