Battery and Charger

WARNING

Battery Capacity

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 5.8 hours of continuous digital talk time.

For a quick check of your battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upper right corner of your phone’s display screen. When there are approximately five minutes of talk time left, the battery icon ( ) turns red and the phone sounds a warning tone.

After an additional five minutes or so, the phone sounds a warning tone three times and then turns off.

Note

Use only manufacturer-approved batteries and chargers with your phone. The failure to use a manufacturerapproved 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.

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, browser use, and other variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby times.

Watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the battery

Tip

before it runs out of power.

Installing the Battery

See “Setting Up Your Phone” on page 2.

Removing the Battery

1. Make sure the power is off so that you don’t lose any stored

numbers or messages.

2. To open, insert a fingernail into the slot ( ), and apply light

pressure while sliding the cover down ( ).

3. Lift the battery up and remove it from the phone ( ).

WARNING

Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can be burned.

1. Plug the phone charger into an electrical outlet.

TTY Use With Service

A TTY (teletypewriter, also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to communicate by telephone.

Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices. Please check with the manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure that it

supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY device will connect via a special cable that plugs into your phone’s headset jack. If this cable was not provided with your TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase the connector cable.

WARNING

911 Emergency Calling

Boost recommends that TTY users make emergency calls by other means, including Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and landline communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted when received by public safety answering points (PSAPs), rendering some communications unintelligible. The problem encountered appears related to TTY equipment or software used by PSAPs. This matter has been brought to the attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry and the PSAP community are currently working to resolve this.
