Power Save mode.

Your Sprint PCS Phone comes with a Power Save feature that will
automatically be activated if your phone is unable to find a signal
after 15 minutes of searching. While this feature is active, the
phone's battery charge is conserved. The phone will automatically
recheck for a signal periodically. To manually force the phone to
recheck for a signal, press any key. A message on the display will
let you know when the phone is operating in Power Save mode.
