Turning Your Phone On and Off

Turning Your Phone On

To turn your phone on, press and hold for approximately two seconds until you see the opening animation on the display.

The phone will go through the power up sequence, then it automatically enters standby mode – the phone’s idle state. At this point, you are ready to begin making and receiving calls.

If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching, a Power Save feature is automatically activated and the Power Save icon ( ) is displayed. When a signal is found, your phone automatically returns to standby mode.

In Power Save mode, your phone searches for a signal periodically without your intervention. You can also initiate a search for PCS Service by pressing any key (when your phone is turned On).

Tip : The Power Save feature helps to conserve your battery power when

you are in an area where there is no signal.

Turning Your Phone Off

Press and hold for two seconds until you see the power-down animation on the display screen.

Note: If charging while the phone is powered Off, the charging indicator

Using the Battery

Battery Capacity

Your PCS Phone is equipped with a Lithium Polymer battery. It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. The battery provides approximately 2.5 hours of continuous digital talk time (1 hour in analog) or approximately 7 days of continuous digital standby time (20 hours in analog).

When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the phone sounds an audible alert and displays a low battery message. After this message, the battery icon blinks to indicate low power. When the battery is empty, the phone briefly displays a message and sounds an audible alert, then powers down.

Note: Backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, and browser

use affect the battery’s talk and standby times.

Tip: Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the

battery before it runs out of power.

bottom of the battery.
