Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak Performance

There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.

⬤Speak directly into the mouthpiece.

⬤Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove the battery.

⬤Blocking the internal antenna located in the upper right corner will reduce signal performance.

Note:	For the best care of your phone, only Sprint authorized personnel
	should service your phone and accessories. Faulty service may void
	the warranty.

Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phone

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS OUTLINED MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND POSSIBLE PROPERTY DAMAGE

Using Your Phone While Driving

Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without a hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to specific restrictions. Remember that safety always comes first.

Tip:	Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local Sprint
	Store, or call the Sprint PCS Accessory HotlineSM at 1-800-974-2221
	or by dialing #222 on your Sprint PCS Phone.

Following Safety Guidelines

To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.
