2A: Your PCS Phone - The Basics 27
Tip: Be sure to charge your phone’s battery and watch your indicator to
ensure your levels are okay.
Installing the Battery
1.
Place the battery on the back of the phone, making sure that the
plastic tabs are aligned with the corresponding holes in the phone.
2. Gently slide the battery up until it snaps into place.
Removing the Battery
To remove your battery for charging or for another reason, follow these
easy steps:
1. Make sure the power is off so that you don’t lose any stored numbers
or messages.
2. Press the battery release latch and slide the battery down.
Charging the Battery
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your battery level
becomes too low, your phone automatically turns off and you’ll lose
everything you were just working on. For a quick check of your phone’s
battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upper-
right corner of your phone’s display screen. If the battery charge is
getting too low, the battery icon ( ) blinks and the phone sounds a
warning tone.
There is also an internal backup battery that saves all the settings in the
phone when the regular battery is discharged. An internal backup battery
needs to be charged initially for 24 hours. To make sure the internal
battery is charged, do not disconnect the main battery from the phone for
24 hours.
Note: The internal battery will maintain data for 15 hours.
Always use a Sprint-approved desktop holder, travel charger or vehicle
power adapter to charge your battery.
