Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger

Battery Capacity

Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery.
The standard battery provides up to 3.0 hours of continuous
digital talk time and the extended battery provides up to 4.1
hours 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.

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode,

Note:

and browser use affect the battery talk and standby times.

Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and

Tip:

charge the battery before it runs out of power.

Installing the Battery

To install the Li-Ion battery:

1. To install, insert the battery into the bottom of the

phone at a 45-degree angle, making sure to line up the
tabs.

2. Gently press down the top of the battery until it snaps

into place.

2. Push the release button up located at the top of the

battery.

3. Pull the battery away and remove from the phone at a

45-degree angle.

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 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 an authorized battery charger, travel charger, or
vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.

Phone Basics

Section 2A: Your Phone - The Basics 25

handset’s physical location to be communicated to the 911
response or emergency agency (PSAP – Public Safety
Answering Point) while the 911 call is in progress. This
approximation of the location of the handset and/or
transmittal of location information is subject to emergency
situations, transmission limits, network problems or
limitations, problems associated with interconnecting
carriers, your handset, buildings, tunnels, signal strength and
atmospheric or topographical conditions, and may be
interrupted, dropped, refused, limited, or curtailed.

This handset may permit its location to be approximated
during a 911 emergency call. The Federal Communications
Commission has mandated this location capability.
Availability of this feature is dependent upon upgrades to
both the wireless network and the 911 calling system that
are required to be installed by the local 911 response agency
or PSAP. These upgrades may not be available everywhere
within our wireless coverage area or while roaming, which
limits availability of this feature.

The location of the handset is only an approximation, it is not
exact and is intended only to aid the PSAP in dispatching
emergency assistance or to limit the area over which
emergency services personnel need to search for the handset.
You should not rely solely on a handset for any essential
communication, medical emergency or any other emergency.

STi Mobile is not liable for any service limits, failures and / or
outages, including without limitation, the failure of a 911
emergency call to be connected or completed. Location
services, including 911 location services may not be available
in your area and are subject to service limitations.

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 wireless service, please call
STi Mobile via the state Telecommunications Relay Service

(TRS) by first dialing , . Then provide
the state TRS with this number: 866-727-4889.

To turn TTY Mode on or off:

1. Press Menu ( ) to access the main menu.

2. Select Settings ().

3. Select Others ().

4. Highlight TTY Mode and press .

A message is displayed when you enable TTY that says “TTY

IMPORTANT
NOTICE:

911 Emergency Calling

It is recommended that TTY users make emergency
calls by other means, including Telecommunications
Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and land line
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 PSAP community
are currently working to resolve this.

⽧ Controlling Roaming Charges Using Call Guard

Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re
off the network available to you. Your new tri-mode phone

works anywhere on the network available to you and allows
you to roam on other 1900 and 800 MHz digital networks
where roaming agreements with other carriers have been
implemented.

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

Roaming

Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 73

Understanding Roaming

Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when
you’re off the network available to you. Any time you are

roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ).

Remember, when you are using your phone off the network

Tip:

available to you, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area
code + number).

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 network available to you. However, you
may not be able to access certain features, such as Data
Services.

If you’re on a call when you leave the network available to you

Note:

and enter an area where roaming is available, your call is
dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think
your network is available, turn your phone off and on again to
reconnect to the network available to you.

74 Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience

Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming

When you are roaming off the network available to you, you
may not receive on-phone notification of new voicemail
messages. Callers can still leave messages, but you will need
to periodically check your voicemail for new messages if you
are in a roaming service area for an extended period of time.

To check your voicemail while roaming:

1. Dial 1 + area code + your wireless phone number.

2. When you hear your voicemail greeting, press .

3. Enter your pass code at the prompt and follow the voice

prompts.

When you return to the network available to you, voicemail
notification will resume as normal.
