Battery and Charger

WARNING: Use only Sprint-approved or Kyocera-approved batteries and chargers with your device. The failure to use a Sprint-approved or Kyoceraapproved battery and charger may increase the risk that your device will overheat, catch fire, or explode, resulting in serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.

Sprint-approved or Kyocera-approved batteries and accessories can be found at Sprint Stores or through Kyocera; or call 1-866-866-7509 to order. They are also available at www.sprint.com.

BatteryCapacity

Your device 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 4.6 hours of continuous digital talk time.

When the battery level drops to 10%, the LED indicator begins flashing red. When the battery level drops below 5%, the battery icon changes to and a popup window warns you that the battery is low. When the

battery level drops to approximately 1%, the device shuts down.

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

Tip: Watch your device’s battery level indicator and charge the

battery before it runs out of power.

InstallingtheBattery

See “Setting Up Your Device” on page 2.

RemovingtheBattery

1.Make sure the device is off so that you do not lose any stored numbers or messages.

2. Press and hold the back cover latch with your thumbnail and slide the cover down with the other thumb to remove the cover.

3. Lift the battery up and remove it from the device.

14 2A. Device Basics

Tip: Hook your fingernail under the tab at the top left side of the battery to facilitate removal.

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

ChargingtheBattery

Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your battery level becomes too low, your device automatically turns off, and you will lose any information you were just working on.

Always use a Sprint-approved or Kyocera-approved desktop charger, travel charger, or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.

Plug the flat end of the charger into the device’s charger/ accessory jack and the other end into an electrical outlet.

A solid red indicator light means the battery is charging.

A flashing red indicator light means the battery is low.

A solid green indicator light means the battery is fully charged.

With the Sprint-approved Li-Ion battery, you can recharge the battery before it becomes completely run down.

WARNING: Do not remove the battery while it is charging. Always remove the charger from the wall outlet first before removing the USB cable from the device.

Extending Your Battery Life

Active applications, backlight levels, and Bluetooth and GPS use all contribute to draining your battery. The following is a list of helpful tips that can help conserve your battery’s charge:

Reduce your backlight on time. See “Changing the Backlight Time Length” and “Changing the Key Backlight Time Length” on page 38.

Turn Bluetooth off when not in use. See “Turning Bluetooth On and Off” on page 77.

Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use. See “Turning Wi-Fi On and Off” on page 98.

Turn GPS off when not needed. Most applications using this function will periodically query the GPS satellites for your current location; each query drains your battery. See “Location Settings” on page 39.

Do not wait until your battery is completely depleted before charging your device. Repeated complete discharging and recharging can reduce the storage capacity of any battery over time.

Turn off Automatic application sync. See “Synchronizing Accounts” on page 40.

Add a Power Control Widget to your Home screen to deactivate features such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and synchronization and to reduce the screen’s brightness setting. See “Adding an Item” on page 21.

Check running services and close any unnecessary applications. See “To view and control currently running services:” on page 49.

Navigating Through the Menus

Menu Navigation

Touch: To type using the onscreen QWERTY keyboard, select items such as application and settings icons, or press onscreen buttons, simply touch them with your finger. A light touch works best.
