Low battery indicator
When the battery is weak and only a few minutes
of talk time remain, a warning tone sounds and a
message repeats at regular intervals on the
display. In this case, your phone turns off the
backlight to conserve the remaining battery
power.
When the battery level becomes too low, the
phone automatically turns off.
