Battery Use and Battery Safety

䢇 Motorola recommends you always use Motorola-branded

batteries and chargers. The warranty does not cover

damage caused by non-Motorola batteries and/or chargers.

Caution

䢇 Battery usage by children should be supervised. 䢇 Important: Motorola mobile devices are designed to

Use of an unqualified battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. Improper battery use, or use of a damaged battery, may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard.

work best with qualified batteries. If you see a message on your display such as

Invalid Battery or

Unable to Charge, take the following steps:

䡲 Remove the battery and inspect it to confirm that

it bears a Motorola “Original Equipment” hologram;

䡲 If there is no hologram, the battery is not a

qualified battery;

䡲 If there is a hologram, replace the battery and

retry charging it;

䡲 If the message remains, contact a Motorola

Authorized Service Center.

䢇 New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may

take more time to charge.

䢇 Charging precautions: When charging your battery,

keep it near room temperature. Never expose

Section 2A. Phone Basics 15

Phone Basics

batteries to temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C (113°F) when charging. Always take your mobile device with you when you leave your vehicle.

䢇 When storing your battery, keep it in a cool, dry

place.

䢇 It is normal over time for battery life to decrease, and

for the battery to exhibit shorter runtime between charges or require more frequent or longer charging times.

䢇 Avoid damage to battery and mobile device. Do not

disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, shred, or submerge the battery or mobile device. Avoid dropping the battery or mobile device, especially on a hard surface. If your battery or mobile device has been subjected to such damage, take it to a Motorola Authorized Service Center before using. Do

not attempt to dry it with an appliance or

heat source, such as a hair dryer or microwave oven.

䢇 Use care when handling a charged battery — particularly

when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects. Contact with metal objects (e.g., jewelry, keys, beaded chains) could complete an electrical circuit (short circuit), causing

16 Section 2A. Phone Basics

the battery to become very hot, which could cause damage or injury.

䢇 Promptly dispose of used batteries in

accordance with local regulations. Contact your local recycling center for proper battery disposal.

WARNING

Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.

Installing the Battery

1. Make sure the phone is powered off.

2. Insert the bottom of the battery into the battery

area:

䡲 Be sure the gold-colored areas on the battery are

touching the battery contacts on the phone.

Removing the Battery

1. Make sure the phone is powered off.

2. Press the TDC near the top of the battery:

䡲 Slide the battery door towards the bottom of the

䡲 Once unlocked, the door should lift up easily. 䡲 Pull outward on the top of the battery to release

the battery.

3. Remove it from the phone.

WARNING

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

Charging the Battery

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

Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your battery level becomes too low, your phone automatically turns off, and you will lose all the

information you were just working on. For a quick check of your phone’s battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upper-left 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-approved or Motorola-approved desktop charger, travel charger, or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.

Using the Phone Charger

1. Plug the charger into an electrical outlet.

2. Pull open the cover of the connector located on

the side of your phone.

3. Plug the other end of the charger into the

accessory connector.

Your display screen lets you know the battery is charging. Both the battery icon and a text message show the charging status. With the approved Li-Ion battery, you can recharge the battery before it completely runs down.

TTY Use With Sprint Service

A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to communicate by telephone.

Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices. Please check with the manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure that it supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY device will connect via a special cable that plugs into your phone's headset jack. If this cable was not provided with your TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase the connector cable.

When establishing your Sprint service, please call Sprint Customer Service via the state Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) by first dialing 771N. Then provide the state TRS with this number:

To turn TTY Mode on or off:

866-727-4889.

1. Press S > Settings > More > Accessibility >TTY.

2. Select Off, TTY, VCO, or HCO.

icon.

If TTY mode is enabled, the audio quality of non-TTY devices connected to the headset jack may be impaired.

WARNING

911 Emergency Calling

Sprint recommends that TTY users make emergency calls by other means, including Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and landline communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted when received by public safety answering points (PSAPs), rendering some communications unintelligible. The problem encountered appears related to TTY equipment or software used by PSAPs. This matter has been brought to the attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry and the PSAP community are currently working to resolve this.

Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off the Sprint National Network. Your new VE20 by Motorola

works anywhere on the Sprint National Network and allows you to roam on other networks where we’ve implemented roaming agreements with other carriers.

This section explains how roaming works as well as special features that let you manage your roaming experience.

Roaming on Other Digital Networks

When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality and security will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls on the Sprint National Network. However, you may not be able to access certain features, such as the browser or Messaging.

Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming
