Understanding How Roaming Works

Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode

Setting and Using Call Guard

R

oaming is the ability to make or receive calls while you’re off the 
network available to you. Your new single-band phone works anywhere

on the network and allows you to roam on digital networks virtually anywhere
in the U.S. where compatible wireless service is available. 

This section explains how roaming works as well as special features that let
you manage your roaming experience.

Charging the Battery

Your phone comes with a rechargeable battery. You should charge the
battery 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 at the battery charge indicator located in the
upper-right corner of your phone’s display screen. If the battery charge is
getting too low, the battery icon (

) blinks and the phone sounds a

warning tone.

Always use an 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.

Using the Desktop Charger

To use the desktop charger provided with your phone:

1.

Plug the round end of the AC adapter into the charger holder and the
other end into the electrical outlet.

2.

Insert the phone (with the battery installed) into the slot.

A

red light 

on the charger lets you know the battery is charging.

green light

indicates that the battery is at least 80 percent charged.

It takes approximately three hours to fully recharge a completely
rundown battery. With the approved LiIon battery, it is okay to recharge the
battery before it becomes completely run down.
