Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Phone - The Basics 17
Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger
Battery Capacity
Your Sprint PCS Phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion)
battery. It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully
drained. The battery provides up to 4.3 hours of continuous digital
talk time or up to 96 hours of continuous digital standby time.
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon blinks.
When there are approximately two minutes of talk time left, the
phone sounds an audible alert and then powers down.
Installing the Battery
To install the Li-Ion battery:
1. Insert the battery into the opening on the back of the phone,
making sure the plastic tab on the bottom of the battery is
inserted into the matching slot in the phone.
2. Slide the battery up until it snaps into place.
Note:
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, and
browser use 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.
