Using Your Phone’s Battery and
Charger

Sprint-approved or Samsung-approved batteries and
chargers can be found at Sprint Stores or through
Samsung; or call 1-866-343-1114 to order. They’re also
available at

www.sprint.com

.

Battery Capacity

Your phone 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 3.5 hours of
continuous digital talk time.

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.

WARNING

Use only Sprint-approved or Samsung-
approved batteries and chargers with your
phone. The failure to use a Sprint-approved or
Samsung-approved battery and charger may
increase the risk that your phone will overheat,
catch fire, or explode, resulting in serious
bodily injury, death, or property damage.

Note

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate
mode, Bluetooth, and browser use will 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.
