WARNING: Use only Sprint-approved or Kyocera-approved
Sprint-approved or Kyocera-approved batteries and
accessories can be found at Sprint Stores or through
Kyocera; or call 1-866-866-7509 to order. They are also
available at
batteries and chargers with your device. The
failure to use a Sprint-approved or Kyoceraapproved battery and charger may increase the
risk that your device will overheat, catch fire, or
explode, resulting in serious bodily injury, death,
or property damage.
www.sprint.com.
Battery Capacity
Your device 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 4.6 hours of
continuous digital talk time.
When the battery level drops to 10%, the LED indicator
begins flashing red. When the battery level drops
below 5%, the battery icon changes to and a popup window warns you that the battery is low. When the
battery level drops to approximately 1%, the device
QUA
L
C
O
MM 3G CD

shuts down.
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 device’s battery level indicator and charge the
battery before it runs out of power.
Installing the Battery
䊳 See “Setting Up Your Device” on page 2.
Removing the Battery
1. Make sure the device is off so that you do not lose
any stored numbers or messages.
2. Press and hold the back cover
latch with your thumbnail and
slide the cover down with the
other thumb to remove the cover.
3. Lift the battery up and remove it
from the device.
Tip: Hook your fingernail under the tab at the top left side of
the battery to facilitate removal.
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 device
automatically turns off, and you will lose any
information you were just working on.
Always use a Sprint-approved or Kyocera-approved
desktop charger, travel charger, or vehicle power
adapter to charge your battery.
䊳 Plug the flat end of the charger
into the device’s charger/
accessory jack and the other
end into an electrical outlet.
䡲 A solid red indicator light
means the battery is
charging.
䡲 A flashing red indicator light means the battery is
low.
2A. Device Basics17
Device Basics
䡲 A solidgreen indicator light means the battery is
fully charged.
With the Sprint-approved Li-Ion battery, you can
recharge the battery before it becomes completely run
down.
WARNING: Do not remove the battery while it is charging.
Always remove the charger from the wall outlet
first before removing the USB cable from the
device.
Extending Your Battery Life
Active applications, backlight levels, and Bluetooth and
GPS use all contribute to draining your battery. The
following is a list of helpful tips that can help conserve
your battery’s charge:
䢇 Reduce your backlight on time. See “Changing the
Backlight Time Length” on page 40 and “Changing
the Key Backlight Time Length” on page 41.
䢇 Turn Bluetooth off when not in use. See “Turning
Bluetooth On and Off” on page 81.
䢇 Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use. See “Turning Wi-Fi On
and Off” on page 102.
182A. Device Basics
䢇 Turn GPS off when not needed. Most applications
using this function will periodically query the GPS
satellites for your current location; each query drains
your battery. See “Location Settings” on page 42.
䢇 Do not wait until your battery is completely depleted
before charging your device. Repeated complete
discharging and recharging can reduce the storage
capacity of any battery over time.
䢇 Turn off Automatic application sync. See
“Synchronizing Accounts” on page 42.
䢇 Add a Power Control Widget to your Home screen to
deactivate features such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS,
and synchronization and to reduce the screen’s
brightness setting. See “Adding an Item” on page 23.
䢇 Check running services and close any unnecessary
applications. See “To view and control currently
running services:” on page 52.

please check the contents before you format the
card.
Connecting Your Device to Your
Computer
Before using your device’s mass storage capabilities,
you need to prepare your device’s data services to
synchronize with your desktop or laptop computer.
Once you have connected the device to the computer,
you can transfer your data to or from the microSD card.
1. Connect your device to your computer using a
compatible USB cable. (Wait for the connection to
be completed. When connected, the host
computer will automatically detect your device.)
2. Touch Turn on USB storage > OK to copy files
between your computer and your device's
microSD card.
3. Locate the newly created drive letter on your
computer. You can now begin to use the microSD
card as a storage device.
To remove the connection:
1. When you have finished transferring data, click the
USB device icon on you computer's taskbar, and
follow the onscreen instructions to safely unplug
the USB cable.
2. Drag the status bar down, touch
Turn off USB storage > Turn off USB storage and
unplug the USB cable.
Important Connection Information
䢇 No driver installation is required for Windows 2000/
ME/XP/Vista/7 users. If you use Windows 98/98SE,
you have to download and install the USB Mass
Storage Driver from the Sprint website at
www.sprint.com.
䢇 To avoid loss of data, DO NOT remove the USB
cable, the microSD card, or the battery while files are
being accessed or transferred.
䢇 DO NOT use your computer to change or edit folder
or file names on the microSD card, and do not
attempt to transfer large amounts of data from the
computer to the microSD card. Doing so may cause
the microSD card to fail.
䢇 DO NOT turn off or restart your computer, or put it
into standby mode, while using a mass storage
device. Doing so will result in loss or damage of data.
䢇 The internal microSD card can only be mounted for
use by either the device or a connected computer.
Prior to accessing the card via a different method, it
must first be unmounted from its current device
(device or computer-USB).
Important: The internal microSD card can only share a
connection with one device at a time, either your
device or your computer (via its USB connection),
not both.

About Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range communications technology
that allows you to connect wirelessly to a number of
Bluetooth devices, such as headsets and hands-free
car kits, and Bluetooth-enabled handhelds, computers,
and wireless phones. The Bluetooth communication
range is usually up to approximately 30 feet.
Turning Bluetooth On and Off
By default, your device’s Bluetooth feature is set to Off.
Bluetooth operates in three modes:
䢇 On: Bluetooth is turned on. Your device can detect
other Bluetooth devices but other devices cannot
detect your device.
䢇 Discoverable: Bluetooth is turned on. Your device can
detect other Bluetooth devices and other devices
can also detect your device for 120 seconds.
䢇 Off: Bluetooth is turned off. Information cannot be
sent or received when Bluetooth is turned off.
Note: Activating Bluetooth can drain your battery faster and
reduce your available usage times. It is recommended
that if you do not need it active, turn it off. It is also
recommended to turn off your Bluetooth within
locations that prohibit its use.
To turn Bluetooth on:
1. Touch > > Settings > Wireless & networks.
2. Touch the Bluetooth field to select the feature. (A
check mark indicates this feature is enabled.)
When active, appears on the status bar.
3. To make your device discoverable, touch

Bluetooth device. When you pair devices, they share a
passkey, allowing for fast, secure connections while
bypassing the discovery and authentication process.
To pair your device with another Bluetooth device:
1. Verify your Bluetooth is active.
2. From the Bluetooth settings page, touch
Discoverable. Your device must be visible to
successfully pair with an external device.
3. Touch Scan for devices. Your device will display a
list of discovered in-range Bluetooth devices.
4. Touch a device you would like to pair with, enter a

OK.
5. The device will be paired when it enters the same
passkey.
Note: For car kits, enter “0000” or “1234.” If it does not work,
consult the Bluetooth devices documentation.
Due to different specifications and features of other
Bluetooth-compatible devices, display and operations
may be different, and functions such as transfer or
exchange may not be possible with all Bluetoothcompatible devices.
Note: Pairing between two Bluetooth devices is a one-time
process. Once a pairing has been created, the devices
will continue to recognize their partnership and
exchange information without having to re-enter a
passkey again.
