Turning Your Phone On and Off
Turning Your Phone On
To turn your phone on:
Press and hold for approximately two seconds.
Once your phone is on, it may display “Searching for Service,”
which indicates that your phone is searching for a signal.

standby mode – the phone’s idle state. At this point, you are
ready to begin making and receiving calls.
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.

periodically without your intervention. You can also initiate a
search for Sprint service by pressing any key (when your
phone is turned on).

To turn your phone off:
Press and hold for two seconds until you see the
powering-down animation on the display screen.
Your screen remains blank while your phone is off (unless the

power when you are in an area where there is no signal.

Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger
Sprint- or manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories
can be found at Sprint Stores or through your phone’s
manufacturer, or contact your cable provider for more
information.
Battery Capacity
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Polymer battery. It
allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained.
The battery provides up to 130 minutes of continuous digital
talk time.
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 and then powers
down.
Tip
Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and
charge the battery before it runs out of power.
Note
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate
mode, and browser use affect the battery’s talk and standby
times.
WARNING
Use only Sprint-approved or manufacturerapproved batteries and chargers with your phone.
The failure to use a Sprint-approved or
manufacturer-approved battery and charger may
increase the risk that your phone will overheat,
catch fire, or explode, resulting in serious bodily
injury, death, or property damage.

Your phone’s battery is rechargeable and should be charged
as soon as possible so you can begin using your phone.

working on. For a quick check of your phone’s battery level,
glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upperright corner of your phone’s display screen. If the battery
charge is getting too low, the battery icon ( ) blinks and the
phone sounds a warning tone.
Always use a Sprint- or manufacturer-approved desktop
charger, travel charger, or vehicle power adapter to charge
your battery.
Using the Phone Charger
To use the phone charger provided with your phone:
Plug the round end of the AC adapter into the phone’s
charger jack and the other end into an electrical outlet.
Ared indicator light on the phone lets you know the
battery is charging.
A green indicator light lets you know that the battery
is at least 90 percent charged.
It takes approximately 3 hours to fully recharge a completely
rundown battery. With the Sprint-approved battery, you can
recharge the battery before it becomes completely run down.
