To ensure that no one else has access to your information, you will need to create passwords to protect your privacy. Safety Precautions Handling the Phone, Battery and Charger Only use the battery and charger specified for the phone. Failure to do so can result in damage to the phone, electric shock or fire. Do not store or operate the phone or charger in hot, damp, or dusty areas, which can damage electrical and mechanical components. Avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures below 5°C (41°F) or in excess of 35°C (95°F). Do not drop, shake or throw the phone or charger. Rough handling can damage internal circuit boards and the battery pack. Do not use the phone in the vicinity of volatile gases. Leave the area before using the phone. Failure to leave the area can result in the risk of fire or an explosion. Do not disassemble or modify the phone, charger, or battery. Incorrect modifications, reassembly, or tampering may result in malfunction or personal injury. Account Password If you are the account owner, you'll have an account password to sign on to www.sprint.com and to use when calling Sprint Customer Service. Your default account password is the last four digits of your Social Security number. If you are not the account owner (if someone else receives the invoice for your Sprint PCS Service), you can get a sub-account password at www.sprint.com. Voicemail Password You'll create your voicemail password (or pass code) when you set up your voicemail. See "Setting Up Your Voicemail" on page 120 for more information on your voicemail password. For more information, or to change your passwords, sign on to www.sprint.com or call Sprint Customer Service at 1-888-211-4PCS (4727). Handling the Phone Do not use the phone while operating a vehicle. Observe local regulations for specialized areas (hospital, aircraft, etc) when using the phone. Do not use the phone near electronic equipment prone to interference. Radio frequency interference may result in electronic equipment malfunction. The following electronic equipment may be affected: Hearing aids, pacemakers and other clinical electronic devices, smoke detectors, automatic doors and other automatically controlled devices. 6 Section 1A: Setting Up Service Section 1A: Setting Up Service 7 Setting Up Service Keep all storage media (magnetic cards, floppy disks, credit cards, etc.) away from the phone. Close contact can erase or damage the storage media. Keep all sharp metal objects (pins, nails, hairpins etc.) away from the phone handset. The handset earpiece contains a strong magnet that can attract and hold metal objects. To avoid personal injury, remove any objects from the handset earpiece before using. Handling the Charger Only use a power source that provides the appropriate voltage (AC100~240 V) for the charger. An unsuitable power source can result in damage to the charger, electric shock or fire. Do not use the charger if the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed (exposed or broken wires, etc). This can result in the risk of fire or electric shock. Do not short circuit the charger connector jack. This may result in fire or electric shock. In the event that liquid is spilled into the unit, immediately unplug the charger from the wall outlet to prevent fire or electric shock. To avoid the risk of electric shock, always unplug the charger from the wall outlet before cleaning. To avoid damage, do not place heavy objects on the cord. To avoid damage and the risk of electric shock, always grip the power plug when removing the charger from the wall outlet. Do not pull on the power supply cord. Handling the Battery Do not dispose of the battery pack in a fire. It may explode. Check with local waste management codes for disposal instructions. Do not force the battery pack into the phone. Improper installation can cause malfunctions or damage the battery pack. This may result in fire or personal injury. Use caution in handling batteries in order not to short the battery on conductive materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery and/or conductor may overheat and cause burns. If the battery becomes too hot while recharging, it should be removed immediately from the charger. When clothes or skin are exposed to battery leakage, rinse with clean water at once to prevent skin irritation. Do not use a cracked, leaking or odor-emitting battery pack near an open flame or high temperatures. If a fully discharged battery is stored for a long period of time, it may not be possible to recharge the battery. Observe local waste management codes for proper battery disposal instructions. 8 Section 1A: Setting Up Service Section 1A: Setting Up Service 9 Setting Up Service Getting Help Visit www.sprint.com You can go online to: Access your account information Check your minutes used (depending on your Sprint PCS Service Plan) View and pay your bill Make your life easier by enrolling in Sprint PCS Online Billing and Automatic Payment Purchase accessories Shop for the latest Sprint PCS Phones View available Sprint PCS Service Plans and options Learn more about other great Sprint products and services.

It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. The battery provides up to 3.5 hours of continuous digital talk time (up to 1.5 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 and then powers down. Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service and vibrate mode affect the battery's talk and standby times. Press and hold for approximately two seconds. Phone Basics Once your phone is on, it may display "Searching 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 Sprint PCS 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. 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: Turning Your Phone Off To turn your phone off: 1. Remove the battery cover from the phone by pressing the latch release button and sliding the cover off the phone. Press and hold for two seconds 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). 22 Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Phone ­ The Basics Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Phone ­ The Basics 23 2. Place the battery onto the phone, bottom first so the tabs go into the bottom of the phone and the metal connectors align. Then push the battery down until it locks into place. 3. Place the battery cover over the battery and slide into place. 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. Phone Basics Using the Charger To use the travel charger provided with your phone: Connect one end of the charger into the phone's charger jack and plug the other end into a standard 100~240V AC wall outlet. You can monitor the battery status by checking the battery level indicator. Note: If the battery is not correctly placed in the compartment, the phone will not turn on and/or the battery may detach during use. Removing the Battery To remove your battery: It takes approximately 3 hours to fully recharge a completely rundown battery. With the Sprint-approved LiIon battery, you can recharge the battery before it becomes completely run down. Pull down the release latch, lift up the battery cover and remove the battery from the phone. Charging the Battery Your Sprint PCS 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 upperright 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. 24 Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Phone ­ The Basics Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Phone ­ The Basics 25
