Section 2A: Your Phone – The Basics 23
Charging the Battery
Your phone’s Li-Ion battery is rechargeable and should be
charged as soon as possible so you can begin using your phone.
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your
battery level becomes too low, your phone automatically
turns off and you will lose all the information you were just
working on. For a quick check of your phone’s battery level,
glance at the battery charge indicator located in the
upper-right corner of your phone’s display screen. If the
battery charge is getting too low, the battery icon ( )
appears and the phone displays a warning message.
Always use a Sprint- or manufacturer-approved desktop
charger, travel charger, or vehicle power adapter to charge
your battery.
WARNING:Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage to your
phone and void the warranty.
Using the Charger
To use the travel charger provided with your phone:
1. Plug the travel charger into a wall outlet.
2. Plug the other end of the travel charger into the
charger jack at the bottom of your phone (with the
battery installed).
It takes approximately four hours to fully recharge a completely
rundown battery. With the Sprint-approved Li-Ion battery,
you can recharge the battery before it becomes completely
run down.
