Turning Your Phone On

the top of your phone for approximately two seconds.
Once your phone is on, it displays “Searching for Service” that indicates your phone is searching for a signal. When your phone finds a signal, it automatically enters the standby

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