Turning Your Phone On and Off

Turning Your Phone On

To turn your phone on:

䊳

Press .

Once your phone is on, it displays “Looking for service...” which
indicates that your phone is searching for a signal. When your phone
finds a signal, it automatically enters 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 standby mode.

In Power Save mode, your phone searches for a signal periodically
without your intervention. You can also initiate a search for
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 until you see the powering down
animation on the display screen.

Your screen remains blank while your phone is off (unless the battery
is charging).

Section 2A: Your Phone – The Basics 14

Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger

Battery Capacity

Your wireless phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery. It
allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. The
battery provides up to 3.0 hours of continuous digital talk time (1.7
hours in analog) or up to 288 hours of continuous digital standby
time (17 hours in analog).

When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the low battery icon
appears. When there are approximately two minutes of talk time left,
the phone sounds an audible alert and then powers down.

Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, Ready Link

mode, and browser use affect the battery’s talk and standby times.

Tip: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 LiIon battery:

1. Place the battery into the space beneath

the antenna with the metal contacts at
the bottom, facing downward.

2. Gently press down until it’s in place and

the battery release latch snaps.

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. Push the battery release latch up and

hold the battery.

3. Pull the battery up and out at a 45-degree

angle.

Section 2A: Your Phone – The Basics 15

Charging the Battery

Your 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. If the battery charge is getting too low, the low battery icon
( ) appears and the phone sounds a warning tone.

Always use a Qwest-approved 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.

Using the Travel Charger

To use the travel charger provided with your phone:

1. Plug the travel charger into a wall outlet.

2. Plug the other end of the travel charger into the bottom of your

phone (with the battery installed).

䡲

Charging when your phone is turned on:

The battery icon appears on the display while charging.
The battery icon turns to when charging is complete.

䡲

Charging when your phone is turned off:

The battery icon appears, and the message “BATTERY
CHARGING--Power Off--” is shown on the display while
charging. When the battery is completely discharged, you
may wait for several minutes until the message is shown on
the display. The battery icon turns to , and the message
changes to “CHARGING COMPLETE--Power Off--” when
charging is complete.

It takes approximately 3.5 hours to fully recharge a completely
rundown battery. With the Qwest-approved LiIon battery,

TTY Use

A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a telecom­munications device that allows people who are deaf or 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 supports digital
wireless transmission. 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.

When establishing your wireless service, please call Qwest via
the state Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first dialing

. Then provide the state TRS with this number:

866-727-4889.

To turn TTY mode on or off:

IMPORTANT NOTICE: 911 Emergency Calling

Qwest 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.

Controlling Your Roaming Experience

In This Section

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
network provided to you. Your new dual-band/tri-mode wireless

phone works anywhere on your home network and allows you to
roam on other analog and 1900 and 800 MHz digital networks
where roaming agreements have been implemented 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 Experience 71

Understanding Roaming

Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off
the network provided to you 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.

Main LCD/Sub LCD Roaming Indicator Analog Indicator

Home Network
Other Digital Networks

Digital Roam

Analog Networks

Analog Roam

Tip:Remember, when you are using your phone off the network provided to you,

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 digital networks, your call quality and
security will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls
on the network provided to you. However, you may not be able to
access certain features, such as Sprint PCS Vision.

Note: Ready Link Service is not available in roaming areas.

Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 72

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 Ready Link, will be unavailable,
you can still make and receive calls and access voicemail. If you are
accustomed to network 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 your home network, such as
call waiting, Sprint PCS Vision, Ready Link, and direct
international dialing, may not be available.

䢇

Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are
roaming, you may not receive notification until you return to the
network provided to you. (See “Checking for Voicemail Messages
While Roaming” on the next page).

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 network provided to you 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 network service is available,
turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to your home network.

Note: When using your phone in analog mode, the phone may feel warm. This is

normal for analog operation.

Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 73

Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming

When you are roaming off the network provided to you, you may 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:

䊳

Dial 1+area code+your wireless phone number.

When you return to the network provided to you, voicemail
notification will resume as normal.

SettingYour Phone’s Roam Mode

Your phone allows you to control your roaming capabilities. 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 to access the main menu.

2. Select Settings and press .

3. Select Roaming and press .

4. Select Set Mode and press .

5. Select an option from the following, and press .

䡲

Digital

allows you to access the network provided to you

only and prevents roaming on other networks.

䡲

Automatic seeks network service. When network service is
unavailable, the phone searches for an alternate system.

䡲

Analog forces the phone to seek an analog roaming system.
The previous setting (Digital or Automatic) is restored the
next time the phone is turned on.

Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 74

Controlling Roaming Charges Using Call Guard

Your phone has two ways of alerting you when you are roaming off
the network provided to you: the onscreen 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 your home network.)

To turn Call Guard on or off:

1. Press to access the main menu.

2. Select Settings and press .

3. Select Roaming and press .

4. Select Call Guard and press .

5. Select On or Off and press .

To place roaming calls with Call Guard on:

1. From standby mode, dial 1 + area code + the seven-digit

number. (You can also initiate a call from the Contacts directory,
Call History, or Messaging.)

2. Press or (or press Options (right softkey) and

highlight Call or Call:Speaker On) and press .

3. Press to proceed while the pop-up message is displayed.

– or –
Press any key to erase the pop-up message, press Options (right
softkey), highlight Roam Call, or Roam:Speaker On, and press .

To answer incoming roaming calls with Call Guard on:

䊳

Press Options (right softkey), highlight Answer or
Answer:Speaker, and press .

– or –

1. Press or .

2. Press to proceed while the pop-up message is displayed.

Reminder: 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 the previous page).
