In Power Save mode, your phone searches for a signal periodically without your
intervention. You can also initiate a search for service by pressing any key (when
your phone is turned On).
Tip

an area where there is no signal.
To turn your phone off:
•
Press and hold
for two seconds until you see the powering down
animation on the display screen.
Your screen remains blank while your phone is off (unless the battery is charging).
Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger
Battery Capacity
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery. It allows you to recharge
your battery before it is fully drained. The battery provides up to 3 hours 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 powers down.
Note
: Long backlight settings, low signal strength, searching for service, vibrate
mode, playing games, or browser use affect the battery’s talk and standby times.
Tip
: Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the battery
before it runs out of power.
Installing the Battery
To install the LiIon battery:
1.
Pull down on the release button (located on the back of the phone).
2.
Lift up the battery cover under one of the removal slots located on either
side of the phone.
