Section 2A: Your Phone – The Basics 21
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 its
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 (
) blinks and the phone sounds a
warning tone.
Always use a Sprint- or manufacturer-approved desktop
charger, travel charger, or vehicle power adapter to charge
your battery.
Using the Phone Charger
To use the phone charger provided with your phone:
ᮣ Plug the round end of the AC adapter into the phone’s
charger jack and the other end into an electrical outlet.
Ⅲ A red indicator light on the phone lets you know the
battery is charging.
Ⅲ A green indicator light lets you know that the battery
is at least 90 percent charged.
It takes approximately three hours to fully recharge a
completely rundown battery. The Sprint-approved Li-Ion
battery can be recharged before it becomes completely run
down.
