Section 2: Understanding Your Phone
18 2A: Your PCS Phone The Basics
If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching, a
Power Save feature is automatically activated. When a signal is found,
your phone automatically returns to Standby mode.
In Power Save mode, your phone searches for a signal periodically
without your intervention. You can also initiate a search for
PCS Service by pressing any key (when your phone is switched On).
Note: The Power Save feature helps to conserve your battery power when
you are in an area where there is no signal.
Switching Your Phone Off
Press for two seconds until you see “Goodbye!” on the display screen.
Your screen remains blank while your phone is Off (unless you are
charging the battery).
Using the Battery and Charger
Battery Capacity
Your PCS Phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery that is
rechargeable. The battery provides approximately 2.8 hours of
continuous digital talk time (up to one hour in analog mode) or
approximately 235 hours (almost 10 days) of continuous digital standby
time (up to one day in analog mode).
When the battery charge is getting low, the “Battery low. Please
recharge.” message is displayed on your screen, and the phone sounds a
warning tone. When the battery has become too weak to further operate
the phone, the message “Switching off. Please recharge.” is displayed on
your screen.
Note: Backlighting, searching for service, and vibrate mode use reduce
the battery’s talk and standby times.
Tip: Be sure to charge your phone’s battery, and watch your indicator to
ensure your levels are okay.
