California, call 1-800-PCS-6699) from any phone other than your

new Sprint PCS Phone. Don’t worry. This call is on us.

Note: If a Sprint PCS Sales Representative has already activated

your phone, then there’s no need to place this call. Instead, see

“How to unlock your phone” on the next page.

To start connecting,

If we’ve done our job as well as we think, you’ll seldom have to

refer to this small book – although it has very easy-to-follow steps

for getting the most out of your new Sprint PCS Service.

The truth of the matter is this: We realize that you have been

using phones all your life and take them pretty much for granted.

You expect to clearly hear the voice on the other end, talk as long

as you want, feel your conversation is private and not have to

work hard merely to listen to a message.

That’s partly why people are so intrigued with the new Sprint

PCS Network and the phone you just purchased. Together, they

could change the way you perceive wireless communications –

especially when it comes to important things like really clear

sound, privacy and time-saving features. Sprint PCS also has the

potential to do something even more far-reaching – and that’s to

change the way people think about communicating.

One day you’ll use a phone (even this phone) to download your

faxes, turn on your home sprinkler system, reroute your e-mail,

program your VCR or connect to your PC.

We honestly believe that we are closer to making all of these

connections than anyone else. And well we should be. That’s why

we’ve built our Sprint PCS Network from the ground up. That’s

what our products and services are all about. And that’s the kind

of technology this phone is based on.

Thanks for choosing Sprint PCS.

As we said – to start connecting, just press .

Display icons:

What they tell you.

Display icons are all the symbols or text that show up on your display screen. In

short, they tell you what’s going on. They’re shown below.

Signal Measures your current signal strength. The more

bars there are, the stronger the signal.

Messages Indicates when you have messages waiting in

voicemail.

Battery Shows the level of your battery charge. The more

bars you see, the more power you have left. When

the charge is low, the icon blinks and an alert tone is

sounded.

ROAM Roaming If the icon is not displayed, you are in the Sprint PCS

Network. If the icon is displayed (not flashing), you

are in a PCS network with which Sprint PCS has a

roaming agreement. If the icon is flashing, you are in

an unknown service area.

Lock Icon Displayed when the phone is locked; you must enter

your four-digit lock code to unlock the phone.

IN USE In Use Tells you a call is in progress.

NOSVC No Service Shows that you are outside a Sprint PCS

Service Area and cannot use your phone.

Ringer Off Indicates that you have turned your phone’s

ringer off.

Battery: Putting in the power.

Your new Sprint PCS Phone comes with a rechargeable battery,

which must be charged when the battery icon flashes or if the

phone turns itself off.

Installing your battery.

To install your battery, just follow these simple steps:

1. Hold the battery with the label facing down, making sure the

metal contacts at the base of the battery line up with the metal

contacts on the base of the phone.

2. Place it on the back of the phone with the top of the battery

about a quarter of an inch from the latch.

3. Gently slide the battery toward the top of the phone until it

clicks into place.

Turning your phone on and off.

When you’re ready to turn on your Sprint PCS Phone, check to

see that the charged battery has been installed in the back of the

phone or that you have an external power source (the Rapid

Cigarette Lighter Adapter or the Hands-Free Car Kit). Then,

simply press . The red light flashes briefly and the banner is

displayed, which means you’re ready to make a call.

Turning off the phone is just as simple. Press for two

seconds. The display will be blank when the power is off.

Removing your battery.

1. First, turn the power off to avoid losing stored numbers

and messages.

2. Press the battery release latch on the back of the phone while

sliding the battery down toward the base of the phone.

Charging your battery.

You can tell whether or not your battery needs to be recharged

just by checking the lower-right corner of your phone’s display,

where the battery charge indicator is located. When the battery

charge level is low, the battery icon will blink and the phone will

sound a tone.

If you continue to use your phone without recharging and the

battery level becomes too low, it will turn off automatically. An

alert tone will sound just before the phone turns itself off. If this

happens, unfortunately you’ll lose whatever you were just doing.

So, watch the indicator and make sure your level is okay.

To charge your battery, you should use the Sprint PCS Rapid

Desktop Charger, Travel Charger or Rapid Cigarette Lighter

Adapter from Samsung. (The Rapid Desktop Charger is described

in the next section. For more information on the travel charger

and Rapid Cigarette Lighter Adapter, see the product user guide

for each.)
