Using the Battery
Battery Capacity
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery. It
allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained.
The battery provides approximately two-and-a-half (2.5) hours
of continuous digital talk time or approximately six days of
continuous digital standby time.
When the battery’s voltage dips to 3.34 volts, the battery icon
blinks and the handset emits an audible alert. When this occurs
there are approximately three minutes of talk time remaining
on the charge.
Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, and vibrate mode
affect the battery’s talk and standby times.
Tip: Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the
battery before it runs out of power.
