Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger

Battery Capacity

Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery. It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. The battery provides up to 3.2 hours of continuous digital talk time (1.4 hours in analog) or up to 216 hours 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 and then powers down.

Note:

Tip:

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, and browser use affect the battery’s talk and standby times.

Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the battery before it runs out of power.

Installing the Battery

To install the LiIon battery:

1. Insert the battery into the opening on the back of the phone at

an angle, making sure the plastic tab on the bottom of the battery is inserted into the matching slot in the phone.

2. Press down until the battery snaps into place.

Section 2A: Your Phone - The Basics 17

Page 26

Removing the Battery

To remove your battery:

1. Make sure the power is off so that you don’t lose any stored

numbers or messages.

2. Push the battery release latch up completely.

3. Using the side tabs, pull the top of the battery away from the

phone and remove.

Charging the Battery

Your phone’s LiIon 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-right 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 desktop charger, travel adapter, or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.

Warning!

Section 2A: Your Phone - The Basics 18

Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage to your phone and void the warranty.

Page 27

Using the Travel Adapter

To use the travel adapter provided with your phone:

 Plug the round end of the AC adapter into your phone and the

other end into the electrical outlet.

charging.

 A yellow light on the phone indicates that there is a

problem charging the battery.

 A green light indicates that the battery is at least

90 percent charged.

It takes approximately 4 hours to fully recharge a completely rundown battery. With the approved LiIon battery, you can recharge the battery before it becomes completely run down.

When the flip is open, an animated battery icon is displayed on the screen. When the flip is closed and the battery is completely charged, a green light is displayed continuously.

 Understanding Roaming

 Setting Your Phone’s Roam Mode

 Controlling Roaming Charges Using Call Guard

Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off the network provided to you. Your new dual-band/tri-mode wireless phone

works anywhere on the network provided to you and allows you to roam on other analog and 1900 and 800 MHz digital 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.

Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 54

Page 63

Understanding Roaming

Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the network provided to you and whether your phone is operating in analog or digital mode. The following chart indicates what you’ll see depending on where you’re using your phone.

Roaming Indicator

Your Home Network

Other Digital Networks

Analog Networks Analog Roam

Analog Indicator

Tip:

Remember, when you are using your phone off the network provided 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 provided to you. However, you may not be able to access certain features, such as Sprint PCS Vision.

Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 55

Page 64

Roaming on Analog Networks

When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a similar quality provided by other analog carriers today. Although some features, such as Sprint PCS Vision, will be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access voicemail. If you are accustomed to digital service, you may notice some of the following differences when using analog service:

 You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out, and

dropped calls.

 Some features which are standard on the network provided to

you, such as Call Waiting, Sprint PCS Vision, and direct international dialing, are unavailable.

 Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are

roaming, you may not receive notification until you return to your network. (See “Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming” on

 There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning)

page 57.)

that exist with conventional analog services today.

 Your battery’s charge will deplete more quickly and you will

need to recharge it more often when you use your phone for analog roaming.

Note:

If you’re on a call when you leave the network provided to you and enter an area where roaming is available (whether digital or analog), your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think network service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to your network.

When using your phone in analog mode, the phone may feel warm. This is normal for analog operation.

Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 56

Page 65

Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming

When you are roaming off the network provided 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 your network, voicemail notification will resume as normal.
