Turning Your Phone On and Off

Turning Your Phone On

To turn your phone on:

Flip the phone open, then press and release

.

Once your phone is on, it may display “Looking for Service,”
which indicates that your phone is searching for a signal.
When your phone 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 15 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 PCS Service by pressing any key (when your
phone is turned on).

Turning Your Phone Off

To turn your phone off:

Press and hold

until you see the powering off

animation on the display screen.

Your screen remains blank while your phone is off (unless the
battery is charging).

Note:

The Power Save feature helps to conserve your battery power
when you are in an area where there is no signal.
