22 Section 2A: Your Sprint PCS Phone – The Basics
Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger
Battery Capacity
Your Sprint PCS 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 5.5 hours of continuous
digital talk time (up to 3 hours in analog).
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon
blinks. When there are approximately 5 minutes of talk time
left, the phone sounds an audible alert and then powers
down.
Note:
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, and
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.
Place the battery into the
space beneath the
antenna with the metal
contacts at the bottom,
facing downward.
2.
Gently press down until
it’s in place and the battery
release latch snaps.
