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 5.8 hours of
continuous digital talk time.
For a quick check of your battery level, glance at the
battery charge indicator located in the upper right
corner of your phone’s display screen. When there are
approximately five minutes of talk time left, the battery
icon ( ) turns red and the phone sounds a warning
tone.
After an additional five minutes or so, the phone
sounds a warning tone three times and then turns off.
WARNING Use only Sprint-approved or Kyocera-
approved batteries and chargers with your
phone. The failure to use a Sprint-approved or
Kyocera-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.
Note Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate
mode, browser use, and other variables may reduce
the battery’s talk and standby times.
Tip Watch your phone’s battery level indicator and
charge the battery before it runs out of power.
