Turning your phone on and off
When you’re ready to turn your Sprint PCS Phone on, check to see
that the charged battery has been installed on the back of the phone
or that you have an external power (ie; the cigarette lighter adapter,
hands-free car kit or AC adapter) with the battery installed.
Then, simply press
POWER
. The red light turns on for approximately
5 seconds and the banner is displayed. Once signal has been found,
you’re ready to make a call.
To turn your phone off, press
POWER
for two seconds until
“Powering Off” is displayed. Then release
POWER
. When your
phone is turned off, nothing is displayed on the screen.
Note: If
POWER
is pressed for less than one second, the phone will
not turn off. This keeps your phone from being turned off
accidentally.
Standby mode
Standby mode is the most basic state of the phone. The phone goes
into Standby mode soon after you turn it on or whenever you press
END
. When your Sprint PCS Phone is on but no call is in progress,
the phone is in Standby mode.
