to the following two conditions: (1) this  
device may not cause interference, and  
(2) this device must accept any  
interference, including interference that  
may cause undesired operation of the

provide reasonable protection against  
harmful interference in a residential  
installation. This equipment generates,  
uses and can radiate radio frequency  
energy and, if not installed and used in  
accordance with the instructions, may  
cause harmful interference to radio  
communications. However, there is no  
guarantee that interference will not  
occur in a particular installation. If this  
equipment does cause harmful  
interference to radio or television  
reception, which can be determined by  
turning the equipment off and on, the  
user is encouraged to try and correct  
the interference by one or more of the  
following measures:  
A label is located on the underside of  
the base unit containing either the FCC  
registration number and Ringer  
Equivalence Number (REN) or the IC  
registration number and Load Number.  
You must, upon request, provide this  
information to your local telephone  
company.  
Reorient or relocate the receiving  
antenna.  
Increase the separation between the  
equipment and receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet  
or on a circuit different from that to  
which the receiver is connected.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced  
radio/TV technician for help.  
This equipment is compatible with  
inductively coupled hearing aids.  
Should you experience trouble with this  
telephone equipment, please contact:  
Sprint National Help Desk at 1-800-

Your telephone company may  
discontinue your service if your  
equipment causes harm to the  
telephone network. They will notify you  
in advance of disconnection, if possible.  
During notification, you will be informed  
of your right to file a complaint with the

that could affect the operation of your  
equipment. If so, you will be given  
advance notice of the change to give  
you an opportunity to maintain  
uninterrupted service.  
The base unit contains no user  
serviceable parts. The handset contains  
a user replaceable battery pack.  
If it is determined that your telephone  
equipment is malfunctioning, the FCC  
requires that it not be used and that it  
be unplugged from the modular jack  
until the problem has been corrected.

number of devices you may connect to  
your telephone line and still enable the  
devices to ring when you receive a call.  
The general rule is that the REN value  
should not exceed 5.0 total; however,  
contact your local telephone company  
for the specific number in your area.  
Your SP 1933 is designed to operate at  
the maximum power allowed by the  
FCC . This means your handset and  
base unit can communicate only over a  
certain distance - which will depend on  
the location of the base unit and  
handset, weather, and the construction  
and layout of your home or office.

HEADSET OPERATIONS  
Your Sprint cordless  
phone is  
For maximum sound quality, the flexible  
microphone should be positioned at the  
corner of your mouth, about one inch from  
your face.  
equipped with a 2.5mm Headset Jack for  
use with an optional accessory Headset  
for hands-free operation.  
If you choose to use the Headset option,  
you must obtain an optional accessory  
Headset, which is compatible with the  
Sprint cordless phone.  
To purchase a Headset, please visit  
your local Sprint store or call VTech  
at 1-800-624-5688.  
Once you have a compatible 2.5mm  
Headset, locate the Headset Jack on  
the Sprint cordless phone Handset.  
Connect the plug on the Headset cord  
to the jack on the cordless Handset.  
The plug should fit securely. Do not  
force the connection.  
BELT CLIP  
The Sprint cordless phone is also  
equipped with a detachable belt clip.  
Align the pins on the inside edge of the  
clip with the notches on the sides of the  
Sprint cordless phone Handset.  
The belt clip should snap securely into  
place. Do not force the connection.  
OPERATION  
NOTE: Whenever a compatible Headset  
is connected to the cordless Handset, the  
microphone on the Handset will be muted.  
This is done to limit the effect of back-  
ground noise.  
The following operational characteristics  
also apply to other headsets which are  
not sold by Sprint; however, Sprint  
assumes  
no responsibility for their  
performance.  
The Sprint  
compatible  
Headset  
has a reversible, monaural design. You  
can wear your Headset on either ear,  
leaving one ear free for room conversa-  
tion.  
The headband can be adjusted to fit the  
contour of your head. Using both hands,  
slide the headband up or down so that it  
rests comfortably on your head, with the  
speaker cushion centered against your  
ear.

PAY PER USE FUNCTIONS

you easy access to convenient custom  
features:  
POWER BACKUP  
Return Call  
Repeat Dial  
3-Way Call  
When the second battery is installed in  
the Base Unit, your Sprint cordless  
telephone uses this battery to provide  
operational backup during a power  
failure. If you have a fully charged battery  
pack in the Base Unit charger, you will  
be able to place and receive calls from  
the Handset for up to 5 hours.  
NOTE: You can subscribe to any of  
these services for a monthly fee. If you  
do not subscribe, a fee is charged to your  
phone bill when you use the services.  
For specific information about rates,  
contact your local telephone company.  
Note:  
During power backup mode, the Base  
Unit functions are not operable, In  
addition, Caller ID information may not  
be reliable.  
RETURN CALL  
This key will dial the last person who  
called you, whether you answered the  
call or not. (This is most useful if you  
do not subscribe to Caller ID.)  
REPLACING A DRAINED HANDSET  
BATTERY  
The second battery pack can also be  
used to replace a drained Handset  
battery, to ensure uninterrupted use. Be  
sure to put the drained battery pack in  
the Base Unit charger for recharging.  
REPEAT DIAL  
This key will repeatedly dial the last  
number you called. For example, if you  
dial a number that’s busy, press OFF,  
then Repeat Dial, then OFF again. For  
up to 30 minutes, your line will keep  
trying to reach the number. When it gets  
through, your phone will ring to let you  
know. Press PHONE and wait for the  
other person to answer.  
The Base Unit battery compartment  
charges at a slower rate than a battery  
pack charging in the Handset. It takes 24  
hours to fully charge a battery pack in  
the Base Unit.

please visit your local Sprint store or call
