Page 249: General Precautions
General Precautions There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service. To maximize performance, do not touch the upper back portion of your phone where the internal antenna is located while using the phone. Speak directly into the mouthpiece.
Page 250: Maintaining Safe Use Of And Access To Your Phone
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phone Do Not Rely on Your Phone for Emergency Calls Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential communication (e.g., medical emergencies).
Page 251 Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. 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.
Page 252: Using Your Phone With A Hearing Aid Device
Not all phones have been rated for compatibility with hearing devices. Phones that have been rated have a label located on the box. Your KATANA DLX by SANYO has M4 and T4 ratings.
Page 253: With Your Phone
Sprint Nextel further suggests you experiment with multiple phones (even those not labeled M3/T3 or M4/T4) while in the store to find the one that works best with your hearing aid device. Should you experience interference or find the quality of service unsatisfactory after purchasing your phone, promptly return it to the store within 30 days of purchase.
