Removing the Battery

1.

Follow steps 1 and 2 from “Installing the Battery”
on page 18.

2.

Grip the battery at the top end (1) and pull it up
and out (2).

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 shuts 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-approved phone charger or
vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.

WARNING

Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion
battery as you can be burned.

Tip

It is recommended that you completely charge your
battery before first using your phone. This guarantees
you begin using your phone with a fully charged
battery.

WARNING

Using the wrong battery charger could cause
damage to your phone and void the warranty.
