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 3 hours of continuous digital talk time
(1.3 hours in analog) or approximately 8 days of continuous digital
standby time (15 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

Follow these steps to install your phone’s LiIon battery:

1. Place the battery in the opening in the back of the phone at a 45-degree

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

2. Gently press down on the battery until the latch snaps into place.

Removing the Battery

To remove your battery, follow these easy steps:

1. Make sure the power is off so that you don’t lose any stored numbers

or messages.

2. Push the battery release up.

3. Remove the battery from the phone at a 45-degree angle.

Section 2: Understanding Your Phone

2A: Your PCS Phone – The Basics 19

Charging the Battery

Your PCS Phone comes with a rechargeable LiIon 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 will lose all
the information you were working on when the phone turned off. 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 battery icon ( ) blinks and
the phone sounds a warning tone.

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.

Using the Desktop Charger

To use the desktop charger provided with your phone:

1. Plug the round end of the AC adapter into the charger holder and the

other end into the electrical outlet.

2. Insert the phone (with the battery installed) into the slot.

䊳

Ared light on the charger lets you know the battery is charging.

䊳

A green light indicates that the battery is at least 90 percent charged.

It takes approximately three hours to fully recharge a completely
rundown battery. With the Sprint-approved LiIon battery, it is okay to
recharge the battery before it becomes completely run down.

oaming is the ability to make or receive calls while you’re off the

Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. Your new dual-band PCS Phone works
anywhere on the enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS 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.

Section 2: Understanding Your Phone

2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 47

Understanding Roaming

Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the
Sprint Nationwide 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.

Roaming Analog
Indicator Indicator

Sprint Nationwide PCS Network

Other Digital Networks

Analog Networks – Analog Roam –

Tip: Remember, when you are using your phone off the Sprint

Nationwide 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 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 while on the
enhanced Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. You may not be able to access
certain service features, such as PCS Vision.

Section 2: Understanding Your Phone

48 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience

Roaming on Analog Networks

When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a similar
quality provided by other analog carriers today. Although some service
features, such as PCS Vision, will be unavailable, you can still make and
receive calls and access voicemail. You will experience a few differences:

䊳

You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out, and
dropped calls.

䊳

Some service features which are standard on the enhanced Sprint
Nationwide PCS Network, such as call waiting, PCS Vision Products and
Services, and direct international dialing, are unavailable.

䊳

Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are roaming,
you will not receive notification until you return to the Sprint Nationwide
PCS Network. While roaming, you can periodically check your voicemail
for new messages by dialing 1+area code+your PCS Phone Number.
Press when you hear your greeting and enter your pass code at
the prompt.

䊳

There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning) that
exist with conventional analog services today.

䊳

Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your phone for
analog roaming. (See “Using the Battery” on page 19.)

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 PCS Service is available, turn your phone off and on
again to reconnect to the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network.

Note: When using your phone in analog mode, the handset may feel

warm. This behavior is normal for analog operation.

Section 2: Understanding Your Phone

2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 49

Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode

Your PCS Phone allows you to control your ability to roam. By using

your roaming experience:

1. From the main menu, select Settings ().

2. Select Roaming ().

3. Select Set Mode ().

4. Select a roam mode and press .

䊳

Analog Only: This setting forces the phone to seek an analog

roaming system. The previous setting is restored the next time the
phone is turned on.

䊳

Sprint Only:

This setting allows you to select the enhanced
Sprint Nationwide PCS Network only and prevents roaming
on other networks.

䊳

Automatic: This setting seeks PCS Service. When PCS Service is

unavailable, the phone searches for an alternative system.
