Battery and Charger
WARNI NG:
Boost-approved or Motorola batteries and accessories
can be found at Boost Stores or through Motorola; or
call 1-866-866-7509 to order. They’re also available at
www.b oostmobile.com
Battery Capacity
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion)
battery. It allows you to recharge your battery before it is
fully drained.
Your phone warns you with a audible alert when the
battery reaches 15% and 5% of its capacity. When
there are approximately two minutes of talk time left, the
phone plays another alert and then turns off.
Use only Boost-approved or Motorola batteries
and chargers with your phone. The failure to use
a Boost-approved or Motorola 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.
.
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 phone’s battery level indicator and charge the
battery before it runs out of power.
Installing the Battery
䊳
See “Setting Up Your Phone” on page 2.
Removing the Battery
1.
Make sure the power is off so that you don’t lose
any stored numbers or messages.
2.
Remove the back cover by pulling up from the
notch at the bottom, and then remove the battery
from the phone.
WARNING:
Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion
battery as you can be burned.
Charging the Battery
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 any
information you were just working on.
Always use a Boost-approved or Motorola desktop
charger, travel charger, or vehicle power adapter to
charge your battery.
䊳
Plug the flat end of the charger into the phone’s
charger jack and the other end into an electrical
outlet.
With the Boost-approved Li-Ion battery, you can
recharge the battery before it becomes completely run
down.
