Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger
Battery Capacity
Your Sprint PCS Phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion
(LiIon) battery. It allows you to recharge your battery
before it is fully drained. The battery provides up to 3.5
hours of continuous digital talk time (up to 90 minutes in
analog).
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 LiIon battery:
ᮣ To install, insert
the battery into the
opening on the
back of the phone
and gently press
down until the
latch 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.
