Using Your Phone
Placing a Call
When the phone is turned on, check the Signal Strength icon to
see if you are in a Sprint PCS Service Area or authorized
PCS CDMA or analog cellular provider’s service area.
1. Open the Flip.
2. Enter the phone number, highlight Call and press
.
Tip! When dialing long distance, it is not necessary to dial a
“1” before the area code.
3. When you are finished with your call, highlight End Call
and press
. If the phone is in Active Flip Mode (see
page 75), closing the Flip will also end the call.
Roaming With Your Sprint PCS Phone™
Your Sprint PCS Phone™ is dual-band, which means you can use
it to make and receive calls in many places.
• In any city where Sprint PCS provides service.
• On other PCS CDMA networks and conventional analog
cellular networks where Sprint PCS has implemented
roaming agreements.
Note: When using your dual-band Sprint PCS Touchpoint Phone™ in
Analog Mode, the handset may feel warm due to the higher transmission
power requirements. This behavior is normal for the analog operation.
