2. Align the battery’s exposed copper contacts with the battery connectors inside the battery compartment.
3. Insert the contact side of the battery first then gently push the battery into place.
4. Replace the back cover.
Removing the Battery

WARNING
Use only Sprint-approved or HTC-approved batteries and chargers with your device. The failure to use a
Sprint-approved or HTC-approved battery and charger may increase the risk that your device will overheat,
catch fire, or explode, resulting in serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.
Note
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, browser use, and other variables may reduce the
battery’s talk and standby times.
Tip
Watch your device’s battery level indicator and charge the battery before it runs out of power.
WARNING
Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can be burned.
