UsingYour Phone’s Batteryand Charger

WARNING

Use only Sprint-approved or LG-approved batteries and chargers with your phone. The failure to use a Sprint-approved or LG-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-approved or LG-approved batteries and accessories can be found at Sprint Stores or through LG; or call 1-866-343-1114 to order. They’re also available at www.sprint.com.

BatteryCapacity

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 4.5hours 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 turns off.

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.
