Do not use a hand-held telephone while driving a
vehicle. If using a hand-held telephone park the vehicle
before conversing.
Always secure the phone in its holder; do not place the
phone on the passenger seat or where it can break
loose in a collision or sudden stop.
The use of an alert device to operate a vehicle’s lights
or horn on public roads is not permitted.
Remember road safety always comes first!
Op e r a tin g En v ir o n m e n t
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in
any area and always switch off your phone whenever it
is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference
or danger.
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment,
including PCS1900 telephones, may interfere with the
functionality of inadequately protected medical devices.
Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical
device if you have any questions. Other electronic
equipment may also be subject to interference.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment,
users are advised that for the satisfactory operation of
the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is
recommended that the equipment should only be used
in the normal operating position.
Users are advised to switch off the phone when at a
refueling point (service station). Users are reminded of
the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution
areas), chemical plants or where blasting operations are
in progress.
1
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or
explosive materials in the same compartments as the
phone, its parts or accessories.
Only qualified personnel should install or service the
phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be
dangerous and may invalidate the warranty.
Electronic fuel injection systems, electronic anti-skid
braking systems, electronic cruise control systems and
other electronic systems can malfunction due to the
lack of protection from radio signals.
Check regularly that all PCS1900 phone equipment in a
vehicle is mounted and operating properly.
Switch off your PCS1900 phone when in an aircraft.
The use of PCS1900 telephones in an aircraft may be
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the
PCS1900 network, and is illegal.
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to
suspension or denial of PCS1900 telephone services to
the offender, or legal action or both.
Em e r g e n c y C a lls
IM PORTA N T!
This phone, like any PCS1900 telephone, operates
using radio signals, PCS1900 and landline networks,
and user-programmed functions which cannot
guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore you
should never rely solely upon any PCS1900 phone for
essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies).
Remember, to make or receive any calls this phone
must be switched on and in a service area with
adequate PCS1900 signal strength. Emergency calls
may not be possible on all PCS1900 networks or when
certain network services and/or phone features are in
use. Check with local service providers.
2
When making an emergency call, remember to give all
the necessary information as accurately as possible.
Remember that your PCS1900 phone may be the only
means of communication at the scene of an accident –
do not cut off the call until given permission to do so.
If certain features are in use (such as Key Lock), you
may first need to turn those features off before you can
make an emergency call. Consult this document and
your local PCS1900 service provider.

Us in g th is Ow n e r ’s M a n u a l
The PCS1900 phone described in this manual is
approved for use in PCS1900 networks. A number of
features included in this guide are called Network
Services. They are special services provided by
PCS1900 service providers.
Before you can take advantage of any of these Network
Services, you must subscribe to them through your
home service provider. You can then activate these
functions as described in this guide. The manual
activation commands for various services are not
presented in this guide (e.g. ∗ and # characters for
activating or deactivating services). The phone
nevertheless is capable of handling commands given in
that form. For these commands please consult with
your service provider.
3
IM PORTA N T!
Use only accessories approved by the phone
manufacturer. The use of any other types will invalidate
any approval or warranty applying to the telephone, and
may be dangerous. When you disconnect the power
cord of an accessory, grasp and pull the plug, not the
cord.
FC C /IN D USTRY C A N A D A N OTIC E
Your phone may cause TV or radio interference
(e.g. when using telephone in close proximity of
receiving equipment). The FCC/Industry Canada can
require you to stop using your telephone if such
interference cannot be eliminated. If you need
assistance, contact your local dealer.
This device complies with part 15 and 68 of the FCC
rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this
device does not cause harmful interference.

Th e B a tte r y
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery. Use
only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and
recharge your battery only with the chargers approved
by the manufacturer. See “Important Battery
Information” later in this section.
New batteries must be charged with
the phone off for at least 24 hours
before initial use. A new battery’s full
performance is achieved only after
two or three complete charge and
discharge cycles!
Note: See “Accessories” for more information on
chargers and other accessories.
In s ta llin g a B a tte r y
Re m o v in g a B a tte r y
Switch off the phone before removing the battery.
5
C h a r g in g a N e w B a tte r y o r Re c h a r g in g
a B a tte r y
Connect the charger to the phone before plugging the
charger into a standard 120V AC outlet.
The battery segments scroll to
show that the battery is
charging. Allow the battery to
completely charge. See the
“Accessories” chapter for
information on battery
charging times.
Charging is finished when the segments
stop scrolling.
When charging is finished, disconnect
the charger from the AC outlet and from
the phone.
Using the phone near the network’s base
station consumes less power. Keeping the
antenna fully extended whenever possible
maintains the connection to the network with
less power.
D is c h a r g in g th e B a tte r y
Either leave your phone switched on until it turns itself
off or use the battery discharge facility of any approved
accessory available for your phone. The battery can be
charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will
6
eventually wear out. When the operating time is
noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new
battery.

A
You get this message and hear
two short beeps when a couple of
minutes of talk time remain. When
no more battery power remains,
BATTERY
LOW
Menu Memory
you get another tone and the
message RECHARGE BATTERY.
The phone switches itself off.
If the message NOT CHARGINGis displayed, charging is
suspended. Check that the battery is not overheated
(over 104°F/40°C), too cold, or connected to a
non-approved charging device. Wait for a while,
connect the charger to the phone again and retry. If
charging still fails, contact your dealer.
Im p o r ta n t B a tte r y In fo r m atio n
For good operation times, discharge the battery from
time to time by leaving your phone switched on until it
turns itself off or by using the battery discharge facility
of any approved accessory available for your phone. Do
not attempt to discharge the battery by any other
means.
When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the
power source. Do not leave the battery connected to a
charger for longer than a week; overcharging may
shorten its life.
If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself
in about a week at room temperature.
It is recommended that you allow your battery to fully
discharge before you recharge it.
When the battery is not in use, store it uncharged in a
cool, dark and dry place.
7
Temperature extremes affect the ability of your battery
to charge: it may require cooling or warming first.
Do not short circuit the battery. Accidental short
circuiting can occur when a metallic object (e.g. coin,
clip, or pen) causes direct connection of the + and -
terminals of the battery (metal strips on the back of the
battery), for example when you carry a spare battery in
your pocket or purse. Short circuiting the terminal may
damage the battery or the connecting object.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged or
worn out.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a
closed car in summer or winter conditions, reduces the
capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep
the battery between 59°F and 77°F (15°C and 25°C).
A phone with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not
work, even if the battery is fully charged. NiMH battery
performance is particularly limited in temperatures
below 14°F (-10°C).
The battery is a sealed unit with no serviceable parts.
Do not attempt to open the case.
Do not dispose of a battery in a fire! Dispose of used
batteries in accordance with local regulations. Recycle!

display, the better the signal at your
location.
If the signal strength is not good, try
moving the phone slightly. In a building, reception may
be better near a window.
If you are in the service area of a PCS1900 network
that can serve you, the network operator’s name and
the indicator appear.
Note: The phone can make and receive calls only when
it is switched on, has a valid SIM card inserted and is
located in the PCS1900 network’s service area.
However, calls to the emergency number 911 can
usually be made without the SIM card. Check with your

This lightweight AC charger can be
used with all battery options. Calls
can be made during charging, even
with a fully discharged battery.
To use the Rapid Travel Charger
(ACH-4U), plug it into a standard
120V AC wall outlet, and connect
the lead from the charger to the base of the phone.
55
The charger can also be used together with the
optional Compact Desktop Charging Stand (CHH-2)
and Light Desk Stand (CHH-2L). Approximate charging
times for discharged batteries are shown at the
beginning of this section.
Ra p id C ig ar e tte Lig h te r

You can charge the phone battery
from your vehicle battery by using
the Rapid Cigarette Lighter Charger
(LCH-2). You can also use the
charger with the Light Desk Stand
(CHH-2L) and the Compact
Desktop Charging Stand (CHH-2).
Calls are possible during charging.
A green light indicates the charger is ready for charging
(when not charging) or finished charging (if it has been
charging). A red light indicates charging. The battery
charging times are the same as those for the Rapid
Travel Charger (ACH-4U).
The input voltage range is from 10 to 30V DC, negative
grounding. Avoid prolonged charging with the Rapid
Cigarette Lighter Charger (LCH-2) when the car engine
is not running; this may cause the battery of your car to
drain. Note also that in some cars the cigarette lighter
plug is not provided with electricity if the ignition is not
switched on.
Fu s e Re p la c e m e n t
The Rapid Cigarette Lighter Charger contains a
protective fuse. The fuse is located in the charger tip.
If the charger does not work, the fuse may be blown, in
which case replace it with a 3 amp. 125 volt fuse.
Never use a fuse with a higher rating.

Lighter Charger (LCH-2), this
drop-in stand is an economical
choice when you need your
phone close at hand, always
ready for calls.
Charging is indicated by the scrolling battery bars on
the right side of the phone’s display. Charging is
finished when the scrolling stops.
C o m p a c t D e s k to p C h a r g in g Sta n d
(C H H -2 )
The Compact Desktop Charging
Stand (CHH-2) allows you to place
both the phone and a spare battery
for charging at the same time in the
stand. It is compatible with all
battery options.

spare battery as soon as it has
finished charging the phone battery.
Connect either the Rapid Travel Charger (ACH-4U) or
the Rapid Cigarette Lighter Charger (LCH-2) to the
stand, and then plug the Rapid Travel Charger or Rapid
Cigarette Lighter Charger into a wall outlet or vehicle
respectively. Place the phone and/or the spare battery
in the stand.

on the stand. When the battery is totally discharged,
recharging starts automatically. (If you wish to stop
discharging, press the button again to start the

charging right away.) Only the spare battery can be
discharged.
The blinking red light indicates discharging, the
continuous red light indicates recharging and the green
light indicates trickle charging. The phone is ready for
use when the green light appears (check the charge on
the phone display).
The charging times are the same as those for the
Rapid Travel Charger.
H a n d s fr e e D e s k to p C h a r g e r K it
In the U.S., this kit (EDC-20P) consists of the Handsfree
Desktop Charger (CHH-8P) and the AC Adapter
(ACS-6U). In Canada, this kit (CHH-8PK) consists of the
Handsfree Desktop Charger (CHH-8P) and the AC
Adapter (ACS-3U).
As with the Compact Desktop Charging Stand
(CHH-2), you can charge both the phone and the spare
battery at the same time. The spare battery is charged
only after the phone battery is charged.
The HF Desktop Charger offers you a handsfree
microphone and loudspeaker for office use. You may
switch to handsfree and back simply by putting down
or picking up the phone, even during your call.
The stand can be connected only to the AC Adapter
(ACS-6U in the U.S., or ACS-3U in Canada). Connect
the adapter to the back of the stand and then plug the
58
adapter into a wall outlet. Place the phone and/or the
spare battery in the stand.
The stand also provides a connector for PCS Card,
Data and Fax facilities. Note that this connector is not
compatible with landline facilities. Do not connect your
landline phone to CHH-8P.
The buttons on the stand are for discharging spare
batteries
, for calling your voice mailbox
, and
for muting the microphone during a call
.
The voice mailbox number must be stored in the
memory of the phone (Menu 2 4 5).
When muting the microphone the first press mutes the
call and the second unmutes it.
Once the phone is placed in the HF Desktop Charger,
you may set the Lights (Menu 4 01), Ringing Volume (Menu
4 2), Keypad Tones (Menu 4 4), Ringing Options (Menu 13)
and earpiece volume (side buttons on phone) differently
from the settings selected for handportable use.
The phone memorizes these desktop settings and uses
them whenever the phone is placed in the HF Desktop
Charger again. The charger also memorizes the
adjusted earpiece volume and uses it for the built-in
speaker. Otherwise, the charger acts similarly to the
Compact Desktop Charging Stand (CHH-2).
The battery charging times are the same as those for
the Rapid Travel Charger (ACH-4U).

Your phone is a product of superior design and
craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The
suggestions below will help you to fulfill the warranty
obligations and to enjoy this product for many years.
Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of
small childrens’ reach.
Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids
contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas.
Its moving parts can be damaged.
Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures
can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage
batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone
warms up (to its normal temperature), moisture can
form inside the phone, which may damage electronic
circuit boards.
Do not attempt to open the phone. Non-expert
handling of the phone may damage it.
Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough
handling can break internal circuit boards.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or
strong detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it with a
soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water
solution.
If the phone or any of its accessories are not working
properly, take them to your nearest qualified service
facility. The personnel there will assist you, and if
necessary, arrange for service.
