Turn off your phone before flying.
You should turn off your Sprint PCS Phone before boarding any
aircraft. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, US
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to
have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the
plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference, FCC
regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in the air.
Restricting children’s access to your phone.
Your Sprint PCS Phone is not a toy and should not be played with by
children. They could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone
or make calls that increase your telephone bills.
Turn off your phone in dangerous areas.
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn off your phone
when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating that
two-way radios should be turned off. Construction crews often use
remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.
Turn off your phone when you are in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your phone or its accessories
could generate sparks. Sparks could cause an explosion or a fire
66
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not
always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gas
stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities; areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as
grain, dust or metal powders; and any other area where you would
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the
compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.
Cautions.
Any changes or modifications to your Sprint PCS Phone not expressly

FCC notice.
The phone may cause TV or radio interference if used in close
proximity to receiving equipment. The FCC can require you to
stop using the phone if such interference cannot be eliminated.
