1.3 Battery Information  
Your device contains a rechargeable Li-ion polymer battery. Your  
device is designed to use only manufacturer-specified original  
batteries and accessories. Battery performance depends on  
many factors, including your wireless service provider’s network  
configuration, signal strength, the temperature of the environment  
in which you operate your device, the features and/or settings you  
select and use, items attached to your device’s connecting ports,  
and your voice, data, and other program usage patterns.  
Battery life estimates:  
Talk-time: 2.5 5 hours  
Warning: To reduce risk of fire or burns,  
do not disassemble, crush, puncture,  
short external contacts, heat above  
60oC (140oF), or dispose of in fire or  
water. Replace only with manufacturer  
specified batteries. Recycle or dispose  
of used batteries according to the local  
regulations.  
Install and Charge the Battery  
New batteries are shipped partially charged. Before you can use  
your device, you need to install and charge the battery. To install  
the battery, slide the battery cover off, and then insert the battery  
by aligning the exposed copper part of the battery pack with the  
protruding copper conductor. Then, gently push the battery into  
place and replace the battery cover.  
Some batteries perform best after several full charge/discharge  
cycles. The time needed to fully charge the battery is less than 4  
hours. You can charge the battery by:  
Connecting your device directly to an external power source.  
Plugging the device sync cable into the USB port on your PC.

4.2 Synchronizing Information  
4.3 Synchronizing Via Infrared and Bluetooth  
4.4 Synchronizing Music, Video, and Pictures  
4.5 Setting Up E-mail Security  
 
4.1 Using ActiveSync  
ActiveSync synchronizes information on your PPC-6700 with  
information on your PC, such as Outlook content. ActiveSync can  
also synchronize over a wireless or cellular network with Microsoft  
Exchange Server, if your company or service provider is running  
Microsoft Exchange Server with Exchange ActiveSync. When you  
synchronize, ActiveSync compares the information on your PPC-6700  
with the information on your PC and/or Exchange Server and updates  
all locations with the most recent information.  
With ActiveSync, you can:  
Synchronize data, such as Outlook E-mail, Contacts, Calendar,  
or Tasks information on your PPC-6700 with your PC, as well as  
pictures, video, and music.  
Synchronize Outlook E-mail, Contacts, Calendar appointments,  
and Tasks on your PPC-6700 directly with Exchange Server so  
that you can stay up to date even when your PC is turned off.  
Exchange files between your PPC-6700 and your PC  
without synchronizing.  
Select which types of information are synchronized and specify  
how much information is synchronized. For example, you  
can choose how many weeks of past Calendar appointments  
to synchronize.  
Before you can synchronize information with a PC, you must first  
install ActiveSync on your PC and create a synchronization relationship  
between your PPC-6700 and the PC. You can install ActiveSync from the  
Getting Started disc that comes with your device. ActiveSync is already  
installed on your PPC-6700.  
Once you have installed ActiveSync and set up a synchronization  
relationship, ActiveSync on the PC recognizes your device when you  
connect it, and automatically transfers the synchronization settings  
you specified on your PPC-6700.  
You may be able to synchronize your device with Exchange Server  
through your company or wireless service provider. If you plan to do so,  
obtain the name of the Exchange Server, your user name, password,  
and domain name from your administrator before starting the Sync  
Setup Wizard.  
Section 4: Synchronizing and Setting Up E-mail Security  
46  
 
To install and set up ActiveSync:  
1. Install ActiveSync on your PC. After Setup completes, the  
Sync Setup Wizard automatically starts when you connect  
your device to the PC.  
2. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the  
wizard. In the Sync Setup Wizard, do one or both of the  
following:  
Create a synchronization relationship between your PC  
and the device.  
Configure an Exchange Server connection to  
synchronize directly with Exchange Server.  
3. Choose information types to synchronize.  
When you finish the wizard, ActiveSync synchronizes your  
Note: device automatically. Once synchronization completes, you  
can disconnect your PPC-6700 from your PC.  
4.2 Synchronizing Information  
When you connect your PPC-6700 to the PC using a USB cable, an  
infrared connection, or a Bluetooth connection, ActiveSync will  
immediately synchronize. While the device is connected, ActiveSync  
synchronizes every time you make a change on either the PC or the  
device.  
Synchronize Outlook Information  
If you have set up a synchronization relationship between your  
PPC-6700 and the PC, synchronization keeps Outlook information  
up-to-date in both your device and PC. ActiveSync synchronizes  
a limited amount of information by default to save storage  
space on your device. You can change the amount of information  
synchronized for a given information type in Settings for the  
information type.  
Section 4: Synchronizing and Setting Up E-mail Security 47  
   
You can set up your PPC-6700 to synchronize with more than  
one PC or with a combination of one or more PCs and Exchange  
Server. When synchronizing with multiple computers, the items  
that you synchronize will appear on all of the computers with  
which they are synchronized. For example, if you have set up  
synchronization with two PCs (PC1 and PC2), which have different  
items, and you synchronize Contacts and Calendar on the device  
with both computers, the result is as follows:  
Location  
New state  
All Outlook contacts and calendar appointments that  
were on PC2 are now also on PC1.  
PC1  
All Outlook contacts and calendar appointments that  
were on PC1 are now also on PC2.  
PC2  
All Outlook contacts and calendar appointments from  
both PC1 and PC2 are on the device.  
Device  
Note: Outlook e-mail can be synchronized with only one computer.  
To start and stop synchronization:  
To synchronize Outlook information and other local  
information on the PC, including media files, connect your  
PPC-6700 to the PC using Bluetooth, infrared (IR), or a  
cable or cradle.  
If you are synchronizing directly with Exchange Server, you  
can use this connection to the PC to “pass through” to the  
network, or you can synchronize without connecting to  
the PC over a cellular or Wi-Fi network.  
In ActiveSync, tap Sync. To end synchronization before it  
completes, tap Stop.  
Section 4: Synchronizing and Setting Up E-mail Security  
48  
To change which information is synchronized:  
1. In ActiveSync on the device, tap Menu > Options.  
2. Do one or both of the following:  
Select the check box for any items you want to  
synchronize. If you cannot select a check box, you  
might have to clear the check box for the same  
information type elsewhere in the list.  
Clear the check box for any items you want to stop  
synchronizing.  
3. To stop synchronizing with one PC completely, tap the PC,  
and then tap Delete.  
Outlook e-mail can be synchronized with only one computer.  
Notes:  
To change available synchronization settings, select the type  
of information and tap Settings.  
To synchronize directly with Exchange Server:  
You can set up synchronization with Exchange Server on your  
PPC-6700, if it is available to you through your company or  
wireless service provider. However, you should first ask your  
administrator for the following information and then carry  
on with the steps: Exchange Server name, your user name,  
password, and domain name.

6. Tap Finish.  
Schedule Synchronization With Exchange Server  
You can schedule information to be synchronized automatically  
between your device and the Exchange Server, or schedule  
synchronization at regular time intervals. Choose between these  
two methods, depending on your e-mail volume and which  
method you think is more cost-effective.  
To receive e-mails and synchronize other information  
instantly:  
The Direct Push technology (Push E-Mail feature) enables you  
to receive new e-mails on your device as soon as they arrive  
in your Inbox on the Exchange Server. With this feature, items  
such as contacts, calendar and tasks are also immediately  
updated onto your device when these items have been  
changed or new entries have been added on the Exchange  
Server. To make Direct Push work, you need to have a 1XRTT or  
EVDO dial-up connection on your device.  
For the Direct Push feature to work for your device, your private  
network (for example, your company’s network) must be using  
Microsoft Exchange Server Service Pack 2 (SP2) with Exchange  
ActiveSync, and you must have already completed your first  
full synchronization with the Exchange Server on your device.  
Using Comm Manager  
1. On the Today screen, tap Start > Programs > Comm  
Manager.  
2. On the Comm Manager screen, tap the Microsoft  
Direct Push button

4.5 Setting Up E-mail Security  
Windows Mobile on your device protects your Outlook e-mails  
through Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (S/MIME),  
which allows you to digitally sign your messages as well as encrypt  
them.  
Using authorization keys and certificates, S/MIME allows you to  
digitally sign your e-mail messages to prove your identity to the  
recipients. Authorization keys are also used when encrypting  
messages to improve privacy and prevent undue tampering or  
hacking of your messages. You can encrypt a message with or  
without a certificate. However, to read an encrypted message, you  
need a valid certificate for decrypting e-mail messages.  
S/MIME encryption and digital signatures for Windows  
Mobile-based devices are available only with Exchange Server  
Note: 2003 Service Pack 2 or a later version that supports S/MIME.  
If you aren’t using one of these products, or have not yet  
synchronized, these options are unavailable.  
Digitally Sign and Encrypt All Messages  
ActiveSync allows you to set up S/MIME e-mail encryption and  
signing. You will have to obtain a valid certificate for signing or  
encrypting e-mail before you will be able to sign or encrypt mail  
successfully.  
1. Tap Start > Programs > ActiveSync.  
2. Tap Menu > Options.  
3. Select the E-mail information type, and tap Settings. On  
the E-mail Sync Options screen, tap Advanced.  
Section 4: Synchronizing and Setting Up E-mail Security

To sign all your outgoing e-mail messages so that  
recipients can be certain that the messages were sent  
by you and have not been altered in any way, select  
the Sign all outgoing e-mail messages check box.  
To encrypt all your outgoing  
e-mail messages so that the  
contents of your messages are  
protected from being viewed  
by anyone other then the  
intended recipients, select the  
Encrypt all outgoing e-mail  
messages check box.  
5. Tap Choose Certificate to select a certificate for signing or  
encrypting outgoing e-mail messages. You can select cer-  
tificates to sign or encrypt e-mail messages individually if  
you do not choose to sign or encrypt all outgoing e-mail.  
For information about signing and encrypting individual  
messages, see “Individually Sign and Encrypt a Message”

5.6 Resetting Your PPC-6700  
Occasionally you may need to reset your PPC-6700. A normal (or  
soft) reset of your PPC-6700 clears all active program memory and  
shuts down all active programs. This can be useful when the device  
is running slower than normal, or a program is not performing  
properly. A soft reset is also necessary after the installation of some  
programs. If a soft reset is performed when programs are running,  
unsaved work will be lost.  
You can also perform a hard reset (also known as a full reset). A hard  
reset should be performed only if a normal reset does not solve  
a system problem. After a hard reset, the device is restored to its  
default settings — the way it was when you first purchased it and  
turned it on. Any programs you installed, data you entered, and  
settings you customized on the device will be lost. Only Windows  
Mobile software and other pre-installed programs will remain.  
To perform a soft reset:  
Use the stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button  
on the bottom of your PPC-6700. The device restarts, and  
then displays the Today screen.

keys pressed, and at the same time, use the stylus to  
lightly press and hold the RESET button on the bottom of  
your device.

Individually Sign and Encrypt a Message  
Encrypting an Outlook e-mail message protects the privacy of the  
message by converting it from plain, readable text into cipher  
(scrambled) text. Only the recipient who has the authorization  
key can decipher the message:  
Digitally signing a message applies your certificate with the  
authorization key to the message. This proves to the recipient  
that the message is from you and not from an imposter or a  
hacker, and that the message has not been altered.  
To digitally sign and encrypt a new message:  
1. In the message list, tap Menu > Switch Accounts >  
Outlook E-mail.  
2. Tap New.  
3. Tap Menu > Message Options.  
4. Select the Encrypt message and Sign message check  
boxes, and tap OK.  
106 Section 7: Exchanging Messages  
Verify the Digital Signature on a Signed  
Message You Receive  
To verify a digital signature in the message that you  
receive, do the following:  
1. Open the Outlook e-mail message that has been digitally  
signed.  
2. At the top of the message, tap View Signature Status.  
3. Tap Menu > Check Certificate.  
To view the details of the certificate in the message, tap Menu  
> View Certificate.  
There can be several reasons why a digital signature is not  
valid. For example, the sender’s certificate may have expired,  
Note: it may have been revoked by the certificate authority, or the  
server that verifies the certificate is unavailable. Contact the  
sender to report the problem.  
Section 7: Exchanging Messages

Manage Folders  
Each Messaging account has its own folder hierarchy with five  
default Messaging folders: Inbox, Outbox, Deleted Items, Drafts,  
and Sent Items. The messages you receive and send through the  
account are stored in these folders. You can also create additional  
folders within each hierarchy. The Deleted Items folder contains  
messages that have been deleted on the device. The behavior  
of the Deleted Items and Sent Items folders depends on the  
Messaging options you have chosen.  
If you use an Outlook E-mail account, e-mail messages in the  
Inbox folder in Outlook will be synchronized automatically with  
your PPC-6700. You can elect to synchronize additional folders  
by designating them for synchronization. The folders you create  
and the messages you move will then be mirrored on the e-mail  
server. For example, if you move two messages from the Inbox  
folder to a folder named Family, and you have designated Family  
for synchronization, the server creates a copy of the Family folder  
and copies the messages to that folder. You can then read the  
messages while you are away from your PC.  
If you use a text message account, messages are stored in the  
Inbox folder. If you use a POP3 account and you move e-mail  
messages to a folder you created, the link is broken between the  
messages on the device and their copies on the e-mail server.  
The next time you connect, the e-mail server will detect that the  
messages are missing from the Inbox folder on the device and  
will delete them from the e-mail server. This prevents having  
duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you will no  
longer have access to messages that you move to folders created  
from anywhere except the device.  
If you use an IMAP4 account, the folders you create and the  
e-mail messages you move are mirrored on the e-mail server.  
Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you connect to  
your e-mail server, whether it is from your PPC-6700 or PC. This  
synchronization of folders occurs whenever you connect to your  
e-mail server, create new folders, or rename/delete folders when  
connected. You can also set different download options for each  
folder.

About Licenses and Protected Files  
Some content (such as digital media files downloaded from  
the Internet, CD tracks, and videos) have associated licenses  
that protect them from being unlawfully distributed or shared.  
Licenses are created and managed by using digital rights  
management (DRM), which is the technology for securing  
content and managing its access rights. Some licenses may  
prevent you from playing files that have been copied to your  
PPC-6700. Files that have licenses associated with them are called  
“protected files.”  
If you want to copy a protected file from your PC to your device  
use the desktop Player to synchronize the file to the device  
(instead of dragging the file from a folder on your PC to a folder  
on the device, for example). This will ensure that the license is  
copied along with the protected file. For more information about  
synchronizing files to your PPC-6700 and other mobile devices,  
see desktop Player Help.  
You can view the protection status for a file by checking its file  
properties (tapping Menu > Properties).

Copy Files to Your PPC-6700  
Use the latest version of the desktop Player (Windows Media Player  
10 or later) to synchronize digital media files to your PPC-6700  
(instead of dragging a file from a folder on your PC to a folder on  
the device, for example). Using the desktop Player ensures that  
licenses are copied with protected files.  
When synchronizing files, always synchronize the files to a storage  
card that is installed in the device. Do not synchronize to a storage  
card that is inserted into a storage card reader. In addition, do not  
synchronize to the internal storage location (RAM) in the device.

for password protection has been removed. Workbooks that  
are password-protected or workbooks in which one or more  
worksheets are password-protected cannot be opened. You  
must remove the password protection in Excel on the PC and  
then synchronize to open the file on the device.  
Zoom settings. Are not retained. Excel supports a per  
worksheet zoom setting, while the Excel Mobile zoom setting  
is applied to the entire workbook.  
Worksheet names. Names that reference worksheets within  
the same workbook are displayed accurately, but names that  
refer to other workbooks, arrays, for example, ={1;2;3;4}, array  
formulas, or intersection ranges are removed from the name  
list. If a name is removed from the list, it is left in formulas and  
functions, causing those formulas to be resolved as “#NAME?”  
All hidden names are not hidden.  
AutoFilter settings. Are removed. However, you can use the  
AutoFilter command in Excel Mobile to perform similar  
functions. If you have an AutoFilter applied to a worksheet  
that causes rows to be hidden, the rows remain hidden when  
the file is opened in Excel Mobile. Use the Unhide command to  
display the hidden rows  
Chart formatting. All charts will be saved the way they are  
shown in Excel Mobile. Unsupported chart types are changed  
to one of these supported types: Column, Bar, Line, Pie, Scatter,  
and Area. Background colors, gridlines, data labels, trend lines,  
shadows, 3D effects, secondary axes, and logarithmic scales  
are turned off.  
Worksheet features. The following features are not supported  
in Excel Mobile and are removed or modified when a workbook  
is opened on the device: hidden sheets are not hidden; VBA  
modules, macro sheets, and dialog sheets are removed and  
replaced with a place holder sheet; text boxes, drawing  
objects, pictures, lists, conditional formats, and controls are  
removed; pivot table data is converted to values.

Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device  
Your PPC-6700 has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility.  
When some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices  
(hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing,  
humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more  
immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary  
in the amount of interference they generate.  
The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of  
their mobile phones, to assist hearing device users in finding phones  
that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones  
have been rated. Phones that are rated will have the rating on the  
box. Your PPC-6700 has an M3 rating.  
Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and  
may generate less interference to hearing devices than  
phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of  
Note:  
the two ratings.  
Appendix 157  
The M3/M4 ratings do not guarantee successful interoperation  
between your phone and hearing aid device. Results will vary  
depending on the level of immunity of your hearing device and  
degree of your hearing loss.  
The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely you  
are to experience interference noise from your wireless phone.  
Hearing aid devices should have ratings similar to phones. Ask  
your hearing healthcare professional for the rating of your aids.  
Most new hearing aids have at least an M2 immunity level. Add  
the “Mratings of your hearing aid and your phone to determine  
probable usability:  
Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers best use.  
Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.  
Any combined rating equal to four is considred usable.  
Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will have  
a combined rating of six for “best use.”  
Sprint further suggests you experiment with multiple phones (even  
those not labeled M3 or M4) while in the store to find the one that  
works best with your hearing aid device. Should you experience  
interference after purchasing your phone, promptly return it to the  
store. With the Sprint® 14 Day Risk Free Guarantee you may return  
the phone within 14 days of purchase for a full refund.  
Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience With  
Your Sprint PCS Phone  
To further minimize interference:  
There is usually less interference on the microphone setting than  
the telecoil setting.  
Set the phone’s Display and Keypad backlight settings to  
ensure the minimum time interval.  
Use phones with a pull-out antenna. Phones with embedded  
antennae may produce more interference.  
Position the phone so the antenna is farthest from your hearing  
aid.  
Move the phone around to find the point with least interference.

SAR Information  
SAR: 1.098 W/kg @1g (USA)  
THIS MODEL DEVICE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS  
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.  
Your wireless mobile CDMA phone is a radio transmitter and  
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the  
emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy  
set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.  
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines  
and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general  
population. The guidelines are based on the safety standards  
previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:  
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE.  
C95.1-1992.  
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement  
(NCRP). Report 86. 1986.  
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation  
Protection (ICNIRP) 1996.  
Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards  
include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the  
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.  
The exposure standard for wireless mobile CDMA phone employs  
a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or  
SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg*.  
Appendix 161  
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets  
the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory that  
contains no metal and that position the antenna of the CDMA  
phone a minimum of 1.5cm from the body. The SAR values of this  
CDMA phone are 0.573 W/g (body) and 1.098 W/g (head). Use  
of other accessories may not ensure compliance with the FCC RF  
exposure guidelines.  
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model  
device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance  
with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this  
model device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the  
Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after  
searching on FCC ID: NM8PA10A. Additional information on  
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular  
Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) website as  
http://www.phonefacts.net.  
* In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile CDMA phone  
used by the public is 1.6 Watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one  
gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of  
safety to give additional protection for the public and to account  
for any variations in usage.  
Normal condition only to ensure the radiative performance  
and safety of the interference. As with other mobile radio  
transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory  
operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it  
is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed  
to come too close to the antenna during operation of the  
equipment.

To connect your device to the PC, you must have Microsoft®  
ActiveSync® installed on your PC. ActiveSync 4.x is included in the  
Installation CD, which is compatible with the following operating  
systems and applications:  
Microsoft® Windows® 2000 Service Pack 4  
Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003 Service Pack 1  
Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003 IA64 Edition Service Pack 1  
Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003 x64 Edition Service Pack 1  
Microsoft® Windows® XP Professional Service Packs 1 and 2  
Microsoft® Windows® XP Home Service Packs 1 and 2  
Microsoft® Windows® XP Tablet PC Edition 2005  
Microsoft® Windows® XP Media Center Edition 2005

Microsoft® Systems Management Server 2.0  
Some users of ActiveSync® 4.0 have reported challenges when  
using the USB connection of their personal computer to connect  
to a device with Windows Mobile 5.0. In many cases, these  
challenges are likely caused by interoperability with desktop  
firewall applications or applications that manage network traffic.  
These applications appear to conflict with the TCP traffic between  
a device and the PC.  
An update for ActiveSync is scheduled to be available in late  
November, but customers may also resolve the issue manually  
immediately by visiting :  
www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync4.  
This issue only affects people with new devices just coming to  
market and running Windows Mobile 5.0 software, and only  
when synchronizing directly to a PC when using a USB connection  
(wireless synchronization via Bluetooth, infra-red or directly to a  
server or other services are not affected).
