Section 4A: Important Safety Information
UsingYourPhoneNearOtherElectronicDevices
MaintainingSafeUseofand
Access toYourPhone
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio
frequency (RF)signals. However, RFsignals from wireless
phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.
RFsignals may affect improperly installed orinadequately
shielded electronic operating systems orentertainment systems
in motorvehicles. Check with the manufacturerortheir
representative to determine if these systems are adequately
shielded from external RFsignals. Also check with the
manufacturerregarding any equipment that has been added to
yourvehicle.
DoNotRelyonYourPhoneforEmergencyCalls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot
guarantee connection in all conditions.Therefore you should
neverrely solely upon any mobile phone foressential
communication (e.g., medical emergencies). Emergency calls
may not be possible on all cellularnetworks orwhen certain
network services ormobile phone features are in use. Check
with yourlocal service providerfordetails.
Consult the manufacturerof any personal medical devices, such
as pacemakers and hearing aids, to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RFsignals.
UsingYourPhoneWhileDriving
Talking on yourphone while driving (oroperating the phone
without a hands-free device)is prohibited in some jurisdictions.
Laws vary as to specific restrictions. Rememberthat safety
always comes first.
Always turn offthe phone in healthcare facilities, and
request permission before using the phone near
medical equipment.
Note
Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your
local Sprint Store, orcall Sprint at 1-800-974-2221orby
dialing # 2 2 2 on yourphone.
Tip
TurningOffYourPhoneBeforeFlying
Turn off yourphone before boarding any aircraft.To prevent
possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal
AviationAdministration (FAA)regulations require you to have
permission from a crew memberto use yourphone while the
plane is on the ground.To prevent any risk of interference, FCC
regulations prohibit using yourphone while the plane is in the
air.
FollowingSafetyGuidelines
To operate yourphone safely and efficiently, always follow any
special regulations in a given area.Turn yourphone off in areas
where use is forbidden orwhen it may cause interference or
danger.

TurningOffYourPhoneinDangerousAreas
RestrictingChildren’sAccess toYourPhone
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn yourphone off
when in a blasting area orin otherareas with signs indicating
two-way radios should be turned off. Construction crews often
use remote-control RFdevices to set off explosives.
Yourphone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as
they could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or
make calls that increase yourSprint invoice.
Turn yourphone off when you’re in any area that has a

and accessories could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an
explosion orfire, resulting in bodily injury oreven death.These
areas are often, but not always, clearly marked.They include:
Anumberof Sprint phones have been tested forhearing aid
device compatibility.When some wireless phones are used with
certain hearing devices (including hearing aids and cochlear
implants), users may detect a noise which can interfere with the
effectiveness of the hearing device.
ⅷ
Fueling areas such as gas stations.
ⅷ
Below deck on boats.
ⅷ
Fuel orchemical transferorstorage facilities.
Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this
interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of
interference noise they may generate. ANSI standard C63.19
was developed to provide a standardized means of measuring
both wireless phone and hearing devices to determine usability
rating categories forboth.
ⅷ
Areas where the aircontains chemicals orparticles such
as grain, dust, ormetal powders.
ⅷ
Any otherarea where you would normally be advised to
turn off yourvehicle’s engine.
Nevertransport orstore flammable gas, flammable
liquids, orexplosives in the compartment ofyour
vehicle that contains yourphone oraccessories.
Ratings have been developed formobile phones to assist
hearing device users find phones that may be compatible with
theirhearing device. Not all phones have been rated for
compatibility with hearing devices. Phones that have been rated
have a label located on the box. YourLX400 has an M4and a
T4rating.
Note
152
Section 4A: Important Safety Information
These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending
on the user’s hearing device and individual type and degree of
hearing loss. If a hearing device is particularly vulnerable to
interference noise; even a phone with a higherrating may still
cause unacceptable noise levels in the hearing device.Trying
out the phone with yourhearing device is the best way to
evaluate it foryourpersonal needs.
Thus, if you pairan M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will
have a combined rating of six for“excellent use.”This is
synonymous forTratings.
Sprint furthersuggests you experiment with multiple phones
(even those not labeled M3/T3 orM4/T4)while in the store to
find the one that works best with yourhearing aid device. Should
you experience interference orfind the quality of service
unsatisfactory afterpurchasing yourphone, promptly return it to
the store within 30 days of purchase.With the Sprint 30-day
Risk-Free Guarantee, you may return the phone within 30 days
of purchase fora full refund. More information about hearing aid
compatibility may be found at: www.fcc.gov, www.fda.gov, and
www.accesswireless.org.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 orM4meet FCC requirements for
hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than unrated phones. (M4is the
better/higherof the two ratings.)
T-Ratings: Phones ratedT3 orT4meet FCC requirements and
are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T
Switch”or“Telephone Switch”)than unrated phones. (T4is the
better/higherof the two ratings. Note that not all hearing devices
have telecoils in them.)
Getting theBestHearingDevice
ExperienceWithYourPhone
To furtherminimize interference:
Hearing aid devices may also be measured forimmunity to
interference noise from wireless phones and should have
ratings similarto phones. Ask yourhearing healthcare
professional forthe rating of yourhearing aid. Add the rating of
yourhearing aid and yourphone to determine probable
usability:

violate FCC RFexposure guidelines.
RadioFrequency(RF)Energy
UnderstandingHowYourPhoneOperates
Yourphone is basically a radio transmitterand receiver.When it’s
turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF)signals.
When you use yourphone, the system handling yourcall
controls the powerlevel.This powercan range from 0.006 watt to
0.2watt in digital mode.
Formore information about RFexposure, visit the FCCWeb site
at www.fcc.gov.
SpecificAbsorptionRates(SAR)forWireless
Phones
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF
energy absorbed in the head of a userof a wireless handset.
KnowingRadioFrequencySafety
The design of yourphone complies with updated NCRP
standards described below.
In 1991–92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE)and theAmerican National Standards Institute (ANSI)
joined in updatingANSI’s 1982standard forsafety levels with
respect to human exposure to RFsignals. More than 120
scientists, engineers and physicians from universities,
government health agencies and industries developed this
updated standard afterreviewing the available body of research.
In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
adopted this updated standard in a regulation. InAugust 1996,
the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the existing
ANSI/IEEEstandard and the guidelines published by the
National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements
(NCRP).
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing,
measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how
much RFthe phone emits. All phone models are tested at their
highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation,
the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than the level
reported to the FCC.This is because of a variety of factors
including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone design
and otherfactors.What is important to rememberis that each
phone meets strict federal guidelines.Variations in SARs do not
represent a variation in safety.
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates
a substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR
values between different model phones do not mean variations
