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 5 hours of

displays a critical charge icon (), then turns off.
batteries and chargers with your device. The
failure to use a Sprint-approved or Samsungapproved 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.
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 power is off so that you don’t lose
any stored numbers or messages.
2. Press the battery cover and slide it away from
camera lens.
3. Carefully remove the battery from the device.
WARNING: Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion
battery as you can be burned.
Device Basics
2A. Device Basics19
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 Samsung-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 jack and the other end into an electrical
outlet. The device turns on in with the screen
locked and indicates both its charge state and
percent of charge.
With the Sprint-approved Li-Ion battery, you can
recharge the battery before it becomes completely run
down.
Extending Your Battery Life
Active applications, light levels, Bluetooth usage and
GPS functionality all act to drain your battery. The
following is a list of helpful tips that can help conserve
your battery power:
202A. Device Basics
䢇 Reduce your backlight on time. See “Changing the
Backlight Time Length” on page 53.
䢇 Turn Bluetooth off when not is use. See “Turning
Bluetooth On and Off” on page 114.
䢇 Turn Wi-Fi off when not is use. See “Turning Wi-Fi On
and Off” on page 149.
䢇 Deactivate the GPS when not needed. Most
applications using this function will periodically query
the GPS satellites for your current location; each
query drains your battery. See “Activating Location
Mode” on page 175.
䢇 Delete the Weather Widget from your Desktop. This
Widget updates information every 30 minutes; each
update drains your battery. See “Adding and
Removing Widgets” on page 28.
䢇 When taking pictures, do not use a flash unless you
have to. See “Camera Settings” on page 108.
䢇 Do not wait until your battery is completely depleted
before charging your device. Repeating this process
of a complete discharge and recharge can over time
reduce the storage capacity of any battery.
