Battery and Charger
Nextel-approved and Motorola-approved batteries and
accessories can be found at Sprint Stores or through
Motorola. You may order online at
www.nextel.com or by
calling 1-866-866-7509.
Your phone’s Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery allows you to
recharge it before it is fully drained.
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, your
phone makes a sound and displays a message. When
there are approximately two minutes of talk time left, the
phone sounds an audible alert and then turns off.
Note: Protect your SIM card as you would any delicate object.
Store it carefully.
Important: Do not touch the gold-colored areas of your SIM
card.
WARNING: Use only Nextel-approved or Motorola-approved
batteries and chargers with your phone. The
failure to use a Nextel-approved or Motorola-
approved battery and charger may increase the
risk that your phone will overheat, catch fire, or
explode, resulting in serious bodily injury, death,
or property damage.
Important: For information on battery safety, see “Battery Use
and Safety” on page 158.
