Using the Battery
Battery Capacity
Your PCS Phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery .
It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. The battery
provides approximately 3 hours of continuous digital talk time
(1.3 hours in analog) or approximately 8 days of continuous digital
standby time (15 hours in analog).
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity , the battery icon blinks. When
there are approximately two minutes of talk time left, the phone sounds
an audible alert every 30 seconds and then powers down.
Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, and
browser use affect the battery’s talk and standby times.
Tip: Be sure to charge your phone’s battery and watch your indicator to
ensure your levels are okay.
Installing the Battery
Follow these steps to install your phone’s LiIon battery:
1. Place the battery in the opening in the back of the phone at a 45-degree
angle with the metal contacts at the bottom, facing downward.
2. Gently press down on the battery until the latch snaps into place.
Removing the Battery
To remove your battery, follow these easy steps:
1. Make sure the power is off so that you don’t lose any stored numbers
or messages.
2. Push the battery release up.
3. Remove the battery from the phone at a 45-degree angle.

If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching, a
Power Save feature is automatically activated. When a signal is found, your
phone automatically returns to standby mode.
In Power Save mode, your phone searches for a signal periodically without
your intervention. You can also initiate a search for PCS Service by pressing
any key (when your phone is turned ON).
Tip: The Power Save feature helps to conserve your battery power when
you are in an area where there is no signal.
