6 Getting to Know Your Phone
Icons on the screen
Your phone has a five-line screen. On the top line, the following icons appear:
Digital Mode means the phone is operating in CDMA digital mode. Signal Strength shows current signal strength. The more lines you
see, the stronger the signal. When this icon appears, you can make and receive calls.
No Signal means the phone is not receiving a signal from the system. You cannot make or receive calls. Wait a little longer or move to an open area.
On Call means a call is in progress. Roaming means the phone is outside of its home area. Envelope indicates a text message, voice mail, or a page. Padlock indicates your phone is operating with enhanced CDMA
voice privacy (if available from your service provider). When this icon appears over the left or key, keyguard is on.
Battery Charge shows how much power remains in the battery. The more black bars you see, the greater the charge. (For more information, see page 12.)

Charging the batteries
Your phone comes with a rechargeable internal lithium ion (LiIon) battery, which you do not need to remove to charge.
This LiIon battery is partially charged when you receive the phone. Fully charge the battery as soon as you can to maximize talk time. If the charge falls too low, the phone turns off without saving any functions in progress.
12 Getting to Know Your Phone
Your phone may come with either an AC Adaptor or a Global Travel Charger (shown here).
Plug the charger into the phone and into a wall outlet to charge the battery. The quickest way to charge the battery is to turn the phone off while it is connected to the charger.

recharges the internal battery first (to a level of 90%), then recharges the external battery (to 90%). The charger then tops off the internal battery and external battery to 100%. However, it is not necessary to wait until all batteries reach 100% before using your phone.
Note: The phone will not make analog calls while attached to AC Adaptor.
Adding an external battery
You can purchase an external battery that snaps onto the back of the phone to extend the talk and standby times. (See “Accessories” on page 16.)
User’s Guide for the QCP 860, 1960, and 2760 Phones 13
1. To attach an external battery
2. Insert the two teeth on the battery into the corresponding holes on the
back of the phone.
3. Move the top of the battery towards the phone until it latches into place.
To remove an external battery
1. Push the button on the top of the battery cartridge to disengage the
battery.
2. Pull the battery away from the phone.
Caution—It is illegal in some areas to dispose of LiIon batteries in
household or business trash. Contact your nearest Kyocera Service Center for safe disposal options. Do not handle a damaged or leaking LiIon battery.
Battery power levels
The phone uses all the power in the external battery before it uses the internal battery. The battery icon tracks only one battery at a time. It reflects the charge level of an attached external battery as long as that battery has a charge. Otherwise, it tracks the internal battery level.
14 Getting to Know Your Phone
The more black bars there are in the icon, the greater the charge.
When your battery is very low, the screen icon blinks, the phone beeps, and a message alerts you to the low battery level. Press or under [OK] to acknowledge the message.
Tip—To reduce drain on your battery, set the backlight to
“always off.” (See “Display” on page 61.) (See page 68 for more tips on using the battery.)
Hot swapping
If the external battery runs out of power during a call, the internal battery takes over automatically so you do not lose the call. This process is called hot swapping. A low battery message appears. Press or under [OK]. The battery icon then displays the status of the internal battery.
If the internal battery power falls low during a call, snap on an external battery. The phone uses the external battery without dropping the call. The battery icon displays the charge level of the external battery.
Note—The external battery does not charge the internal battery.
