Turning your Sprint PCS Phone on and off.

When you’re ready to turn your phone on, fully extend the

antenna for best reception. Press and hold until the

LED comes on and the phone beeps. When the phone has

found a signal, the icon appears. Once the phone is on,

it enters Standby mode, which is the phone’s idle state. You

can make and receive calls now.

To turn your phone off, press and hold until the

display goes blank. When the phone is turned off, nothing

is displayed on the screen.

Note:

If

is pressed for less than one second, the

phone will not turn off. This helps keep your phone from

being turned off accidentally.

Standby mode.

Standby is the most basic state of your Sprint PCS Phone.

The phone goes into Standby mode soon after you turn it

on, or whenever you briefly press . When your

phone is in Standby mode, you will typically see the banner

(that’s the message displayed when you turn on your

phone). If you enter a phone number, you can press

to dial it, or press to save it in the Internal Phone

Book.

Press at any time to return to Standby mode. Be

careful; if you’re on a call when you press , you’ll

return to Standby mode, but it also disconnects the call.

Press several times or hold it down to return to

Standby mode without ending the call.
