Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger

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. The battery provides up to 3.5 hours of continuous digital talk time.

When there are approximately five 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, browser use, and other variables may affect the battery’s talk and standby times.

WARNING

Use only manufacturer-approved batteries and chargers with your phone. The failure to use a 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.

Roaming is the ability to make or receive calls when you’re off the home network. Your new KATANA II by SANYO works anywhere on the

home network and allows you to roam on 1900 and 800 MHz digital networks.

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

Roaming

Page 90

76 Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience

Understanding Roaming

Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the home network. Any time you are roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ).

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 home network. However, you may not be able to access certain features, depending on the available network.

Note:

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

Tip:

Remember, when you are using your phone off the home network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).

Page 91

Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience 77

Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming
