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
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

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

charging.
䡲 A flashing red indicator light means the battery is
low.
䡲 A solid green indicator light means the battery is

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” and “Changing the Key
Backlight Time Length” on page 39.
䢇 Turn Bluetooth off when not in use. See “Turning
Bluetooth On and Off” on page 78.
䢇 Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use. See “Turning Wi-Fi On
and Off” on page 98.
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 40.
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 41.
16 2A. Device Basics
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 21.
䢇 Check running services and close any unnecessary
applications. See “To view and control currently
running services:” on page 50.
