Battery
HTC Explorer uses a rechargeable battery. How long the battery can last before it
needs recharging depends on how you use HTC Explorer.The features and accessories
you use can affect battery life. For example, leaving your Bluetooth® connection
always on uses more power. Long phone calls and frequent web browsing use up a lot
of battery power. Also, consider your location: poor signal strength from your mobile
network and extreme temperature make the battery work harder.
Removing the battery
1. Take the back cover off.
2. With your thumb or finger, lift the battery from the battery compartment.
Inserting the battery
Please use only original batteries that came in the box or replacements that we
recommend.
1. Take the back cover off.

compartment.
