Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Phone: The Basics
Turning Your Phone On and Off
Turning Your Phone On
To turn your phone on:
䊳
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:
䊳
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.
