FCC Regulations

This equipment complies with Parts 15 and 68 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules for the United States. It also complies with regulations RSS210 and CS-03 of Industry and Science Canada. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

A label is located on the underside of the base unit containing either the FCC registration number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) or the IC registration number and Load Number. You must, upon request, provide this information to your local telephone company.

This equipment is compatible with inductively coupled hearing aids.

Should you experience trouble with this telephone equipment, please contact:

Sprint National Help Desk at 1-800949-4357.

For repair/warranty information. The telephone company may ask you to disconnect this equipment from the line network until the problem has been corrected.

FCC Part 15 Warning: Changes or modifications to

this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliances could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

The equipment has been tested and found to comply with part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to

provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet or on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

FCC Part 68

The FCC requires that you connect your cordless telephone to the nationwide telephone network through a modular telephone jack (USOC RJ11C, RJ11W or RJ14).

Your telephone company may discontinue your service if your equipment causes harm to the telephone network. They will notify you in advance of disconnection, if possible. During notification, you will be informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Occasionally, your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operation, or procedures

Page 6

FCC Regulations

that could affect the operation of your equipment. If so, you will be given advance notice of the change to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.

The base unit contains no user serviceable parts. The handset contains a user replaceable battery pack.

If it is determined that your telephone equipment is malfunctioning, the FCC requires that it not be used and that it be unplugged from the modular jack until the problem has been corrected. Repairs to this telephone equipment can only be made by the manufacturer or its authorized agents or by others who may be authorized by the FCC. For repair procedures, follow the instructions outlined under the manufacturer’s Limited Warranty.

This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the phone company or Party Lines.

The REN is useful in determining the number of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still enable the devices to ring when you receive a call. The general rule is that the REN value should not exceed 5.0 total; however, contact your local telephone company for the specific number in your area.

Your SP 1933 is designed to operate at the maximum power allowed by the FCC . This means your handset and base unit can communicate only over a certain distance - which will depend on the location of the base unit and handset, weather, and the construction and layout of your home or office.

HEADSET OPERATIONS

Your Sprint cordless phone is equipped with a 2.5mm Headset Jack for use with an optional accessory Headset for hands-free operation.

If you choose to use the Headset option, you must obtain an optional accessory Headset, which is compatible with the Sprint cordless phone.

To purchase a Headset, please visit

1-800-624-5688.

Once you have a compatible 2.5mm Headset, locate the Headset Jack on the Sprint cordless phone Handset. Connect the plug on the Headset cord to the jack on the cordless Handset. The plug should fit securely. Do not force the connection.

OPERATION NOTE: Whenever a compatible Headset

is connected to the cordless Handset, the microphone on the Handset will be muted. This is done to limit the effect of background noise.

The following operational characteristics also apply to other headsets which are not sold by Sprint; however, Spr int assumes no responsibility for their performance.

The Sprint compatible Headset has a reversible, monaural design. You can wear your Headset on either ear, leaving one ear free for room conversation.

The headband can be adjusted to fit the contour of your head. Using both hands, slide the headband up or down so that it rests comfortably on your head, with the speaker cushion centered against your ear.

For maximum sound quality, the flexible microphone should be positioned at the corner of your mouth, about one inch from your face.

BEL T CLIP The Sprint cordless phone is also equipped with a detachable belt clip. Align the pins on the inside edge of the clip with the notches on the sides of the Sprint cordless phone Handset. The belt clip should snap securely into place. Do not force the connection.

When the second battery is installed in the Base Unit, your Sprint cordless telephone uses this battery to provide operational backup during a power failure. If you have a fully charged battery pack in the Base Unit charger, you will be able to place and receive calls from the Handset for up to 5 hours.

Note: During power backup mode, the Base Unit functions are not operable, In addition, Caller ID information may not be reliable.

REPLACING A DRAINED HANDSET BATTERY

The second battery pack can also be used to replace a drained Handset battery, to ensure uninterrupted use. Be sure to put the drained battery pack in the Base Unit charger for recharging.

The Base Unit battery compartment charges at a slower rate than a battery pack charging in the Handset. It takes 24 hours to fully charge a battery pack in the Base Unit.

To purchase replacement battery packs, please visit your local Sprint store or call VTech at 1-800-624-5688.

THE PHONE DOESN'T WORK AT ALL.

• Make sure the Power Cord is pugged

plugged firmly into the base unit and the telephone wall jack.

charged. If the 'LOW BATTERY' message is shown, the battery pack needs charging.

NO DIAL TONE.

• First check all the suggestions above.

• If you still don't hear a dial tone,

disconnect the base unit from the telephone jack and connect a different phone. If there is no dial tone on that phone either, the prob lem is in your wiring or local service. Call your local telephone company.

• Household appliances plugged into

the same circuit as the base unit can sometimes cause interference. Try moving the appliance or the base unit to another outlet.
