Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger  
Use only Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved  
batteries and chargers with your phone. The failure to  
use a Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved  
battery and charger may increase the risk that your  
phone will overheat, catch fire, or explode, resulting in  
serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.  
WARNING  
Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and  
accessories can be found at Sprint Stores or through your  
phone’s manufacturer, or contact your cable provider for  
more information.  
Battery Capacity  
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. It  
allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained.  
The battery provides up to 3.6 hours of continuous digital  
talk time.  
When there are approximately five minutes of talk time left,  
the phone sounds an audible alert and then powers down.  
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode,  
browser use, and other variables may affect battery life.  
Note:  
Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and  
charge the battery before it runs out of power.

14  
 
Charging the Battery  
Your phone’s Li-Ion battery is rechargeable and should be charged  
as soon as possible so you can begin using your phone.  
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your  
battery level becomes too low, your phone automatically  
turns off and you will lose all the information you were just  
working on. For a quick check of your phone’s battery level,

To use the travel charger provided with your phone:  
1. Plug the travel charger into a wall outlet.  
2. Plug the other end of the travel charger into the  
charger jack on the side of your phone (with the

Section 1D  
Controlling Your Roaming Experience  
In This Section  
Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off  
the Sprint National Network. Your new KATANA™ by Sanyo  
works anywhere on the Sprint National Network and allows  
you to roam on 1900 and 800 MHz digital networks where  
roaming agreements have been implemented.  
This section explains how roaming works as well as special  
features that let you manage your roaming experience.  
80  
       
Understanding Roaming  
Recognizing the Roaming Icon  
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when  
you’re off the Sprint National Network. Any time you are  
roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ).  
Remember, when you are using your phone off the Sprint  
National Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits  
(1 + area code + number).  
Tip:  
Unless your Pivot service plan includes roaming, you will  
pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.  
Note:  
Roaming on Other Digital Networks  
When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality  
and security will be similar to the quality you receive when  
making calls on the Sprint National Network. However,  
depending on the network available where you are roaming,  
certain features may not be available.  
If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint National  
Network, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an  
area where you think network service is available, turn your  
phone off and on again to reconnect to the network.  
Note:  
81  
 
Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming  
When you are roaming off the Sprint National Network, you  
will not receive on-phone notification of new voicemail  
messages. Callers can still leave messages, but you will  
need to periodically check your voicemail for new messages  
if you are in a roaming service area for an extended period of  
time.  
To check your voicemail while roaming:  
1. Dial 1 + area code + your phone number.  
Shift  
2. When you hear your voicemail greeting, press  
.
3. Enter your passcode at the prompt and follow the voice  
prompts.  
When you return to the network, voicemail notification will  
resume as normal.  
For details about using your voicemail service, please see  
the Getting Started with Pivot guide that was packaged with  
your phone. For more information, please contact your  
cable provider.  
Tip:  
82  
 
Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode  
Your phone allows you to control your roaming capabilities.  
By using the Roaming menu option, you can determine  
which signals your phone accepts.  
Set Mode  
Choose from three different settings to control your roaming  
experience.  
To set your phone’s roam mode:  
1. Press  
> Settings > Others > Roaming > Set Mode.  
2. To select an option, highlight it and press  
.
Sprint Only allows you to access the Sprint National  
Network only and prevents roaming on other  
networks.  
Automatic seeks Pivot service. When the network is  
unavailable, the phone searches for an alternate  
system.  
Roaming Only forces the phone to seek a roaming  
system. The previous setting (Sprint Only or  
Automatic) is restored the next time the phone is  
turned on.  
83  
   
Using Call Guard  
Your phone has two ways of alerting you when you are  
roaming off the Sprint National Network: the on screen  
roaming icon and Call Guard. Call Guard makes it easy to  
manage your roaming charges by requiring an extra step  
before you can place or answer a roaming call. (This  
additional step is not required when you make or receive  
calls while on the network.)  
To turn Call Guard on or off:  
1. Press  
> Settings > Others > Roaming > Call Guard.  
2. Highlight On or Off and press  
.
Speed dialing is not available when you are roaming with  
Call Guard enabled.

steps to make and receive roaming calls.  
To place roaming calls with Call Guard on:  
1. From standby mode, dial 1 + area code + the seven-  
digit number. (You can also initiate a call from the  
Contacts, Call History, or Messaging.)

press Options (right softkey) > Answer or  
Answer:Speaker.  
If the Call Guard feature is set to On, you need to take extra  
steps to make and receive roaming calls.  
Note:  
85  
Using Data Roam Guard  
To set the conditions for Data Roam Guard pop-up notification:  
1. Press  
> Settings > Others > Roaming >  
Data Roam Guard.  
2. Select Always Ask if you want a pop-up notification to  
appear when you try and use data services in a  
roaming area.  
– or –  
Select Never Ask if you don’t want a pop-up notification  
to appear.  
To continue data services in a roaming area when Data Roam  
Guard is set to Always Ask:  
When you try using data services in a roaming area, a pop-  
up notification appears indicating that data roaming rates  
may apply.

phone by pushing a button on the headset, which has the  
same effect as inserting a jack into the phone. Increase  
or decrease the volume by using the volume key on the  
side of the phone.

car kit. Incoming calls ring to the hands-free headset or  
device. Calls can be received by pressing a button on the

Information  
   
Section 3A  
Important Safety Information  
In This Section  
This phone guide contains important operational and safety  
information that will help you safely use your phone. Failure to  
read and follow the information provided in this phone guide  
may result in serious bodily injury, death, or property  
damage.  
188  
   
General Precautions  
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and  
maintaining safe, satisfactory service.  
Hold the phone with the antenna raised, fully extended, and over  
your shoulder.  
Try not to hold, bend, or twist the phone’s antenna.  
Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged.  
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.  
Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If  
your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove  
the battery.  
Do not expose your phone to direct sunlight for extended periods of  
time (such as on the dashboard of a car).  
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of  
equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or  
sitting on it.  
Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly approved  
in this document could void your warranty for this equipment and  
void your authority to operate this equipment.  
For the best care of your phone, only authorized personnel should  
service your phone and accessories. Failure to do so may be  
dangerous and void your warranty.  
Note:  
189  
 
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to  
Your Phone  
Do Not Rely on Your Phone for Emergency Calls  
Wireless phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee  
connection in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon  
any wireless phone for essential communication (e.g., medical  
emergencies). Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular  
networks or when certain network services and/or wireless phone  
features are in use. Check with your local service provider for details.  
Using Your Phone While Driving  
Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without a  
hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to  
specific restrictions. Remember that safety always comes first.  
Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local Sprint Store,  
or call your cable provider.  
Tip:  
Following Safety Guidelines  
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special  
regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas where use is  
forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.  
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices  
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radiofrequency (RF)  
signals. However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect  
inadequately shielded electronic equipment.  
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded  
electronic operating systems and/or entertainment systems in motor  
vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their representative to  
determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF  
signals. Also check with the manufacturer regarding any equipment that  
has been added to your vehicle.  
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as  
pacemakers and hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately  
shielded from external RF signals.  
Always turn off the phone in health-care facilities and request  
permission before using the phone near medical equipment.  
Note:  
190  
 
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.  
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas  
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in  
a blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating two-way radios  
should be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF  
devices to set off explosives.  
Turn your phone off when you’re in any area that has a potentially  
explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone and accessories  
could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an explosion or fire, resulting in  
bodily injury or even death. These areas are often, but not always, clearly  
marked. They include:  
Fueling areas such as gas stations.  
Below deck on boats.  
Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.  
Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain,  
dust, or metal powders.  
Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your  
vehicle’s engine.  
Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquid, or  
explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your  
phone or accessories.  
Note:  
Restricting Children’s Access to Your Phone  
Your phone 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 your Pivot invoice.  
191  
Caring for the Battery  
Protecting Your Battery  
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s  
performance.  
Recently there have been some public reports of wireless phone  
batteries overheating, catching fire or exploding. It appears that  
many, if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive,  
aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable  
manufacturing standards.Sprint is not aware of similar problems  
with Pivot phones resulting from the proper use of batteries and  
accessories approved by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone.  
Use only Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and  
accessories.  
Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure  
they’re genuine and safe.  
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures  
that range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).  
Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity  
areas, such as the bathroom.  
Never dispose of the battery by incineration.  
Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.  
Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.  
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long  
period of time.  
It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable  
performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs  
replacing.  
Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of  
time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:  
Less than one month:  
-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)  
More than one month:  
-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)  
192  
 
Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) Batteries  
Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can be burned.  
For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest  
Sprint authorized service center.  
Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas,  
the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be  
prohibited.  
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy  
Understanding How Your Phone Operates  
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned  
on, it receives and transmits radiofrequency (RF) signals. When you use  
your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This  
power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.  
Knowing Radio Frequency Safety  
The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP standards  
described below.  
In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)  
and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in updating  
ANSI’s 1982 standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to  
RF signals. More than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from  
universities, government health agencies and industries developed this  
updated standard after reviewing the available body of research. In 1993,  
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted this updated  
standard in a regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid  
standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the  
guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation Protection and  
Measurements (NCRP).  
Body-Worn Operation  
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a  
handset on your body, use the Sprint supplied or approved carrying case,  
holster or other body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn  
accessory, ensure the antenna is at least 7/16 inch (1.5 centimeters) from  
your body when transmitting. Use of non-Sprint approved accessories  
may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.  
For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC Web site at  
www.fcc.gov.  
193  
   
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for Wireless Phones  
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy  
absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.  
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring  
and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the 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 other factors. What is important to remember is 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 in safety. SAR  
values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe  
for use by the public.  
The highest reported SAR values of the KATANA™ (SCP-6600) are:  
AMPS mode (Part 22):  
Head: 0.769 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.416 W/kg  
Cellular CDMA mode (Part 22):  
Head: 0.678 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.375 W/kg  
PCS mode (Part 24):  
Head: 0.882 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.500 W/kg  
FCC Radio Frequency Emission  
This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines.  
FCC ID number: AEZSCP-66H. More information on the phone’s SAR can  
be found from the following FCC Web site: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid.

reception problems (unless caused by defect in material or  
workmanship); (ix) damage the result of fire, flood, acts of God or other  
acts which are not the fault of SANYO and which the Product is not  
specified to tolerate, including damage caused by mishandling and blown  
fuses; (x) consumables (such as memory cards, fuses, etc.); or (xi) any  
Products which have been opened, repaired, modified or altered by  
anyone other than SANYO or a SANYO authorized service center.  
This warranty is valid only in the United States.

CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF  
PROFITS, LOST SALES, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF USE OF THE PRODUCT, OR  
ANTICIPATED PROFITS ARISING OUT OF USE OR INABILITY TO USE ANY  
PRODUCT (FOR EXAMPLE, WASTED AIRTIME CHARGES DUE TO THE  
MALFUNCTION OF A PRODUCT). THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER  
PRODUCTS SOLD “AS IS”OR “WITH ALL FAULTS”. SANYO MAKES NO OTHER  
EXPRESS WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCTS. THE DURATION  
OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF  
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE IS LIMITED  
TO THE DURATION OF THIS EXPRESS WARRANTY.

consequential damages, or allow limitations on how long an implied  
warranty lasts, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to  
you.
