Caring for the Battery

Protecting Your Battery

The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance.

⬤Use only Sprint-approved batteries and battery chargers. These chargers are designed to maximize battery life. Using other batteries or chargers voids your warranty and may cause damage.

⬤In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).

⬤Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.

⬤Never dispose of the battery by incineration.

⬤Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.

⬤Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.

⬤The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time.

⬤It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.

⬤Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:

■Less than one month:

-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)

■More than one month:

-4° F to 113º F (-20° C to 45° C)

Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) Batteries

For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest Sprint authorized service center.
