Note: Your phone's battery should have enough charge for your phone to turn on and find a signal, set up your voicemail, and make a call. You should fully charge your battery as soon as possible. See "Charging the Battery" on page 15 for details.

Activating Your Phone

  • If you purchased your phone at a Sprint Store, it is probably activated and ready to use.
  • If you received your phone in the mail and it is for a new Sprint account or a new line of service, it is designed to activate automatically. To confirm your activation, make a phone call.
  • If you received your phone in the mail and it is going to be activated on an existing number on your account (you're swapping phones), you can activate on your computer online or directly on your phone.

Activate on your computer:

▶ Go to www.sprint.com/activate and follow the instructions.

Activate on your phone:

Note: You will need your Sprint PIN to use this activation method.

  1. Turn on your new phone. (Make sure the old one is turned off.) Your phone will attempt Hands-Free Activation automatically.

  2. Press ACTIVATE (left softkey) to override auto-activation and start the manual activation wizard.

Note: If you don't override Hands-Free Activation, your phone will attempt to auto-activate five times, and then the manual activation wizard will start automatically.

  1. Use your navigation key, your keypad, or both to complete each screen of the wizard, and press NEXT (left softkey) to advance through the screens.

  2. Continue until you get to a confirmation screen telling you that your phone is now active, and then press return to your phone's main menu.

Tip: Do not press while the phone is being activated. Pressing cancels the activation process.

Note: If you are having difficulty with activation, contact Sprint Customer Service by dialing 1-888-211-4727 from any other phone.

Setting Up Your Voicemail

  2. Follow the system prompts to:

■Create your password.

For more information about using your voicemail, see "Voicemail" on page 84.

Sprint Account Passwords

As a Sprint customer, you enjoy unlimited access to your personal account information, your voicemail account, and your data services account. To ensure that no one else has access to your information, you will need to create passwords to protect your privacy.

Turning Your Phone On and Off

Turning Your Phone On

▶Press

SANYO Vero - Turning Your Phone On - 1

Once your phone is on and 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 five 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 service by pressing any key except numbered keys.

Tip: The Power Save feature conserves your battery power when you are in an area where there is no signal.

Turning Your Phone Off

▶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.

Battery and Charger

WARNING: Use only Sprint-approved or Kyocera-approved batteries and chargers with your phone. The failure to use a Sprint-approved or Kyocera-approved battery and charger may increase the risk that your phone will overheat, catch fire, or explode, resulting in serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.

Sprint-approved or Kyocera-approved batteries and accessories can be found at Sprint Stores or through Kyocera; or call 1-866-866-7509 to order. They're also available at www.sprint.com.

Battery Capacity

Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. The battery provides up to 5.2 hours of continuous digital talk time.

For a quick check of your battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upper right corner of your phone's display screen. When there are approximately five minutes of talk time left, the battery icon ( ) turns red and the phone sounds a warning tone.

After an additional five minutes or so, the phone sounds a warning tone three times and then turns off.

Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, browser use, and other variables may reduce the battery's talk and standby times.

Tip: Watch your phone's battery level indicator and charge the battery before it runs out of power.

Installing the Battery

▶ See "Setting Up Your Phone" on page 2.

Removing the Battery

  1. Make sure the power is off so that you don't lose any stored numbers or messages.
  2. Press the release tab, and apply light pressure while sliding the cover down.
  3. Lift the battery up and remove it from the phone.

WARNING: Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can be burned.

Charging the Battery

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 any information you were just working on.

Always use a Sprint-approved or Kyocera-approved desktop charger, travel charger, or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.

  1. Plug the phone charger into an electrical outlet.
  2. Plug the other end of the phone charger into the charger/accessory jack located on the lower left side of your phone.

With the Sprint-approved Li-Ion battery, you can recharge the battery before it becomes completely run down.

The navigation key on your phone lets you scroll through menus quickly and easily. Many menus feature a scroll bar on the right to help you keep track of your position in the menu.

To navigate through a menu, press the navigation key up or down.

For a diagram of your phone's menu, please see "Your Phone's Menu" on page i.

WARNING: 911 Emergency Calling

Sprint 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 software used by PSAPs. This matter has been brought to the attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry and the PSAP community are currently working to resolve this.

Messaging

With messaging, you can send and receive messages between your phone and another messaging-ready phone. When you receive a new message, it will automatically display on your phone's screen.

In addition, messaging includes a variety of preset messages, such as “The meeting has been cancelled,” that make composing messages fast and easy. Use your phone to customize your own preset messages (up to 50 characters).

There are two types of messaging, Text Messaging (SMS) and Multimedia Messaging (MMS).

Text messages can be composed of up to six segments of 160 characters each, for a total of 960 characters per text message. The current segment and total segment count is displayed at the top of each segment. For example, (5/6) at the top of a segment would indicate you are viewing segment five of a six-segment message.

Multimedia messages consist of both text and multimedia files, such as pictures or voice recordings. Outgoing multimedia messages can be up to 600 KB with up to 1000 text characters.

Getting Started With Data Services

With your Sprint service, you are ready to start enjoying the advantages of data services. This section will help you learn the basics of using your data services, including managing your user name, launching a data connection, and navigating the Web with your phone.

94 3B. Web and Data Services

Your User Name

When you buy your phone and sign up for service, you're automatically assigned a user name, which is typically based on your name and a number, followed by "@sprintpcs.com." (For example, the third John Smith to sign up for data services might have jsmith003@sprintpcs.com as his user name.)

When you use data services, your user name is submitted to identify you to the Nationwide Sprint Network. Your user name will be automatically programmed into your phone. You don't have to enter it.

Finding Your User Name

If you are not sure what your user name is, you can easily find it on your phone.

▶ Press MENU OK > Settings > Phone Info > Phone#/User ID.

Updating Your User Name

If you choose to change your user name and select a new one online, you must then update the user name on your phone.

You are connected to the Sprint 1xRTT data network. Data is being transferred (for example, when you are opening a Web page) and you cannot receive calls.

You are connected to the network but data is not currently being transferred (for example, when you are viewing a Web page that is completely open), and you can receive calls.

If you do not see an indicator, your phone does not have a current data connection. To launch a connection, see "Launching a Web Connection" on this page.

Navigating through menus and websites during a data session is easy once you've learned a few basics. Here are some tips for getting around.

This phone guide contains important operational and safety information that will help you safely use your phone. Failure to read and follow the information provided in this phone guide may result in serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.

General Precautions

There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.

  • To maximize performance, do not touch the bottom portion of your phone where the internal antenna is located while using the phone.
    ●Speak directly into the mouthpiece.
    ●Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove the battery.
  • Do not expose your phone to direct sunlight for extended periods of time (such as on the dashboard of a car).
  • Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on it.
    ●Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly approved in this document could void your warranty for this equipment and void your authority to operate this equipment.

Note: For the best care of your phone, only Sprint-authorized personnel should service your phone and accessories. Failure to do so may be dangerous and void your warranty.

Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phone

Do Not Rely on Your Phone for Emergency Calls Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential communication (e.g., medical emergencies). Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular networks or when certain network services or mobile phone features are in use. Check with your local service provider for details.

Using Your Phone While Driving

Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without a hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to specific restrictions. Remember that safety always comes first.

Tip: Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local Sprint Store, or call Sprint at 1-866-866-7509. You can also dial # 2 2 2 on your phone.

Following Safety Guidelines

To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.

Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating systems or entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their representative to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF signals.

Note: Always turn off the phone in healthcare facilities, and request permission before using the phone near medical equipment.

Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying

Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in the air.

4A. Important Safety Information 111

Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating two-way radios should be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.

Turn your phone off when you're in any area that has a potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it's rare, your phone and accessories could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death. These areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include:

■Fueling areas such as gas stations.
■Below deck on boats.
■Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
■Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
■Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle's engine.

Note: Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids, or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.

Restricting Children's Access to Your Phone

Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as they could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or make calls that increase your Sprint invoice.

Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device

A number of Sprint phones have been tested for hearing aid device compatibility. When some wireless phones are used with certain hearing devices (including hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a noise which can interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing device.

Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference noise they may generate. ANSI standard C63.19 was developed to provide a standardized means of measuring both wireless phone and hearing devices to determine usability rating categories for both.

Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist hearing device users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing device. Not all phones have been rated for compatibility with hearing devices. Phones that have been rated have a label located on the box. Your Vero™ has an M4 and a T4 rating.

These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user's hearing device and individual type and degree of hearing loss. If a hearing device is particularly vulnerable to interference noise; even a phone with a higher rating may still cause unacceptable noise levels in the hearing device. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.

M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements for hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than unrated phones. (M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.)

T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing device's telecoil ("T Switch" or "Telephone Switch") than unrated phones. (T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)

Note: New Technologies, Including Wi-Fi

This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there may be newer wireless technologies (including Wi-Fi) used in this phone that have not been tested for use with hearing aids.

Hearing aid devices may also be measured for immunity to interference noise from wireless phones and should have ratings similar to phones. Ask your hearing healthcare professional for the rating of your hearing aid. Add the rating of your hearing aid and your phone to determine probable usability:

●Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers excellent use.
●Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
● Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable.

Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will have a combined rating of six for “excellent use.” This is synonymous for T ratings.

Sprint further suggests you experiment with multiple phones (even those not labeled M3/T3 or M4/T4) while in the store to find the one that works best with your hearing aid device. Should you experience interference or find the quality of service unsatisfactory after purchasing your phone, promptly return it to the store within 30 days of purchase. (A restocking fee may be applied to exchanges. Visit www.sprint.com/returns for details.) More information about hearing aid compatibility may be found at: www.fcc.gov, www.fda.gov, and www.accesswireless.org.

Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience With Your Phone

To further minimize interference:

  • Set the phone's main screen and keypad backlight settings to ensure the minimum time interval (see also page 29):
  • Press MENOK > Settings > Display > Backlight > Backlight Dim or Backlight Off.
  • Highlight the minimum time interval setting and press OK.
  • Position the phone so the internal antenna is farthest from your hearing aid.
  • Move the phone around to find the point with least interference.

4A. Important Safety Information 113

Caring for the Battery

Protecting Your Battery

The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery's performance.

  • Recently there have been some public reports of wireless phone batteries overheating, catching fire or exploding. It appears that many, if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive, aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable manufacturing standards. Sprint is not aware of similar problems with Sprint phones resulting from the proper use of batteries and accessories approved by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone. Use only Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories found at Sprint Stores or through your phone's manufacturer, or call 1-866-866-7509 to order. They're also available at www.sprint.com — click Accessories. Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure they're genuine and safe.
  • Do not disassemble or open crush, bend or deform, puncture or shred the battery.
  • Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to water or other liquids, expose to fire, explosion or other hazard.
  • Avoid dropping the phone or battery. If the phone or battery is dropped, especially on a hard surface, and the user suspects damage, take it to a service center for inspection.
  • Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion or other hazard.

  • Do not short circuit a battery or allow metallic conductive objects to contact battery terminals.

  • Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
    ●Battery usage by children should be supervised.

Charging

●In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32^ F to 113^ F ( 0^ C to 45^ C).
- Don't use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.
● The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time.
- It's best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.

Storing

- Don't store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time. It's best to follow these storage rules:

■Less than one month: -4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)
■More than one month: -4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)

Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) Batteries

  • Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations.
    ●Never dispose of the battery by incineration.

  • Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can be burned.
    ●For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest Sprint authorized service center.

Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.

Radio Frequency (RF) Energy

Understanding How Your Phone Operates

Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it's turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This power can range from 0.006 watt to 0.2 watt in digital mode.

Knowing Radio Frequency Safety

The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP standards described below.

In 1991–92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI's 1982 standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF signals. More than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies and industries developed this updated standard after reviewing the available body of research. In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted this updated standard in a regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).

Body-Worn Operation

To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a handset on your body, use a Sprint-supplied or Sprint-approved carrying case, holster or other body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at least 0.866 inches (2.2 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use of non-Sprint-approved accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines. Other accessories used with this device for body-worn operations must not contain any metallic components and must provide at least 0.866 inches (2.2 centimeters) separation distance including the antenna and the user's body.

For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov.

Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones

The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.

The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone models are tested at their

4A. Important Safety Information 115

highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than the level reported to the FCC. This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone design and other factors. What is important to remember is that each phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not represent a variation in safety.

All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values between different model phones do not mean variations in safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for use by the public.

The highest reported SAR values of the Vero ^™ are:

Cellular CDMA mode (Part 22):

Head: 1.49 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.51 W/kg

PCS mode (Part 24):

Head: 0.88 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.64 W/kg

FCC Radio Frequency Emission

This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines.

FCC ID number: V65SCP-3820.

More information on the phone's SAR can be found from the following FCC website: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/.
