Using Call Guard

Your phone has two ways of alerting you when you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network: the on screen 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 Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.)

To turn Call Guard on or off:

1.Press O> Settings > Roaming > Call Guard.

2.Highlight On or Off and press O.

Note: Speed dialing is not available when you are roaming with Call Guard enabled.

If the Call Guard feature is set to On, you need to take extra steps to make and receive roaming calls.

To place roaming calls with Call Guard on:

1.From standby mode, dial 1 + area code + the seven-digit number and press s. (A message is displayed, informing you that you're making a roam call.)

2.Press Yes (left softkey) to place the call.

To answer incoming roaming calls with Call Guard on:

1.Press s. (A message is displayed, notifying you that roaming charges apply.)

2.Press Yes (left softkey) to answer the call.
