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, liquid or explosives in the compartment

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 PCS Invoice.

Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid
Device

Your Sprint PCS® phone has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility.
When some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing
aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or
whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this
interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference they
generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their
mobile phones, to assist hearing device users in finding phones that may be
compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated.
Phones that are rated will have the rating on the box.

Your VI-2300 by

Sanyo has an M3 rating

.

Note:

Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and may generate less

interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the
better/higher of the two ratings.

The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user's
hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be
vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to successfully use a phone
that has been tested and rated as Hearing Aid compatible. Trying the phone
with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal
needs. Should you experience interference when using your VI-2300 with
your hearing device, Sprint suggests you promptly return the phone to the
