Chargingthe Battery
Your SprintPCS Phone’s LiIon battery is rechargeable and
should be charged as soon as possible so you can begin using
your phone.
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your
battery level becomes too low, your phone automatically
turns off and you will lose all the information you were just
working on. For a quick check of your phone’s battery level,
glance atthe battery charge indicator located in the upper-
rightcorner of your phone’s display screen. If the battery
charge is getting too low, the battery icon( ) appears and
the phone displays a warning message.
Always use a Sprint-approved desktop charger, travel charger,
or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.
Warning:Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage to your
phone and void the warranty.
