page 72 for details.

2. If the dialer screen is not displayed, activate the dialer screen by

pressing T on the device.

greeting, record your name announcement, and choose whether to activate One-Touch Message Access (a feature that lets you press one key to access messages and bypasses the need for you to enter your pass code).

Note: Charge the battery at an ambient temperature in the range from

0°C to 35°C (32°F to 95°F). Depending on the operating conditions of the device, charging may be interrupted even when the ambient temperature is lower than 35°C (95°F).

Note: If the ambient temperature becomes too high during charging, the

Charging LED lights red and charging is interrupted. Charging is automatically restarted when the ambient temperature becomes appropriate.

Note: The battery may not be properly charged at low temperatures

(less than 0°C/32°F) in winter. If this is the case, charge the battery in a warm room.

Note: If the device is used as it is just after purchase or after the device

is left without being charged for an extended period of time, the remaining battery power may not be correctly indicated. Before using the device, be sure to charge the battery until the LED for Charging turns green.

Note: When the device has been connected with the AC adapter or

placed on the cradle, incoming calls do not cause vibration, even with vibration on.

Note: As the battery nears a full charge, the LED for charging may turn

green and orange alternately.

Battery Life

The main battery has a limited service life. Repeated charging and discharging of the battery will result in a gradual decrease in the charging capacity of the battery. If a fully recharged battery operates the device for a much shorter period than before, this indicates the end of battery life. When battery life is over, replace the battery with a new one.

The life of the main battery can vary, depending on how the device is used and ambient temperatures.

Tip: Unlike NiCad and Nickel Metal Hydride batteries, charging the main

LiIon battery with some amount of power remaining hardly reduces the maximum allowable operating time.

Note: Do not use the device at too high a temperature. The battery life

will become shorter than when used at normal temperatures.

Note: For safe disposal options of your Lithium Ion batteries, contact

your nearest Sprint-authorized service center.

Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas, the

disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.

Battery Operating Time

The main battery allows approximately 2.5 hours of continuous talk time, approximately seven days of continuous standby time, or approximately 12 hours of continuous PDA operation time.

Note: The maximum continuous talk time, standby time, and PDA

operation time are affected by backlight settings, service searching, vibrate mode, game use, and browser use.

Note: The maximum battery operating time varies, depending on how the

device is stored and on ambient temperatures. Charging or using the battery at low temperatures (less than 0°C/32°F) can cause a significant reduction in the maximum operating time because of the characteristics of a Lithium Ion battery. The standard maximum operating time is restored when placed under room temperature conditions (25°C/77°F).
