Section 4A Safety In This Section Getting the Most Out of Your Reception ⽧ Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phone ⽧ Caring for the Battery ⽧ Acknowledging Special Precautions and the FCC Notice ⽧ Owner’s Record ⽧ Phone Guide Proprietary Notice Safety ⽧ Part of getting the most out of your Sprint PCS Phone is learning how the phone works and how to care for it.
Getting the Most Out of Your Reception Keeping Tabs on Signal Strength The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the signal strength in your area. Your phone informs you of the current signal strength by displaying a number of bars next to the signal strength icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger the signal. If you’re inside a building, being near a window may give you better reception.
Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak Performance There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service. 䢇 䢇 䢇 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. Blocking the internal antenna located in the upper right corner will reduce signal performance.
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radiofrequency (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 and/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.
䢇 Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities. 䢇 Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders. 䢇 Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle’s engine. Note: Never transport or store flammable gas, liquid 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.
䢇 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. 䢇 Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time.
Acknowledging Special Precautions and the FCC Notice FCC Notice This phone may cause TV or radio interference if used in close proximity to receiving equipment. The FCC can require you to stop using the phone if such interference cannot be eliminated. Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (propane or butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the National Fire Protections Association, One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269, Attn.
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 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.
Owner’s Record The model number, regulatory number and serial number are located on a nameplate inside the battery compartment. Record the serial number in the space provided below.
