Using the Battery
Battery Capacity
Your phone is equipped with a standard Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery. It allows
you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. The standard battery
provides approximately 3 hours of continuous digital talk time (1.5 hours in
analog) or approximately 216 hours of continuous digital standby time (15
hours in analog).
The extended battery provides approximately 4 hours of continuous digital
talk time (2 hours in analog) or approximately 288 hours of continuous digital
standby time (20 hours in analog).
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon blinks. When
there are approximately two minutes of talk time left, the phone sounds an
audible alert and then powers down.
Note:
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, camera usage
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.

1.
