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.

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 RUMOR

2TM

has an M3 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

Note

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