Turning Your Phone ON and OFF
Turning Your Phone ON
To turn your phone on, press <End> for approximately two
seconds.
Once your phone is ON, it displays "Looking for Service (??)"
indicating 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, the Power Save mode is automatically activated.
When a signal is found, your phone automatically returns to
Standby mode.
In the 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).
Tip:
The Power Save mode helps to conserve your battery power when
you are in an area where there is no signal.
