Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger

Warning! Use only Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and chargers with your phone. The failure to use a Sprint-approved or manufacturer-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.

Sprint- or manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories can be found at Sprint Stores or through your phone’s manufacturer, or call 1-866-343-1114 to order. They’re also available at www.sprint.com – click the Wireless link under "Personal," and then click Accessories under

"Shop Sprint PCS Online."

Battery Capacity

Your 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 three hours of continuous digital talk 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.

Note:

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode,

 

Bluetooth, 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.
