Controlling Roaming Charges Using Call Guard
Your phone has two ways of alerting you when you are roaming off the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network: the roaming icon and Call Guard. Call Guard makes it easy to manage your roaming charges by requiring an extra step before you can place or answer a roaming call. (This additional step is not required when you make or receive calls while on the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network.)
To turn Call Guard on or off:
1.Press Menu, scroll to Settings, and press Select.
2.Scroll to Roaming and press Select.
3.Scroll to Call guard and press Select.
4.Highlight On or Off and press Select.
Note: Voice Dialing and Speed Dialing are not available when you are roaming with Call Guard enabled.
To place roaming calls with Call Guard on:
1.From the standby mode, enter a phone number. (You can also initiate a call from the Phone Book and Call Logs.)
2.Press . (The message “Roaming rate applies. Place call?” is displayed.)
3.Press OK to place the call.
To answer incoming roaming calls with Call Guard on:
1.To answer a roaming call (the message “Roam call” is displayed), press Answer. (The message “Roam rate applies. Answer call?” is displayed.)
2.Press OK to accept the call.
.
Reminder: If the Call Guard feature is set to On, you need to take extra steps to make and receive roaming calls, even if you have selected the Analog setting (see “Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode” on page 57).
