Charging the Battery
Your Sprint PCS phone comes with a rechargeable battery. You
should charge the battery as soon as possible so you can begin
using your phone.
Keeping track of your battery's charge is important. 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 gets too low, the battery icon
( ) blinks and the phone sounds a warning tone.
Always use a Sprint PCS-approved desktop charger, travel
charger or cigarette lighter adapter to charge your battery.
Warning!
Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage to your
phone and void the warranty.
Using the Travel Adapter
Plug the connector of the supplied travel adapter into the serial
connector at the bottom of your phone, and then into the AC
wall outlet.
When the travel adapter is plugged in and charging the phone,
the phone displays a charging light and the battery icon starts to
blink. The phone can still be used while it is plugged into the
travel adapter, but this will cause the phone to charge more
slowly. To quickly charge the phone, turn the power off.
Using the Dual-Slot Desktop Charger
You can purchase an optional dual-slot desktop charger from the
local Sprint PCS Centers.
To use the desktop charger:
1.
Plug the desktop charger's power cord into a wall outlet.
2.
Insert the phone (with the battery installed) into the front
slot of the charger.
Or, insert the battery alone into the rear slot.
The LED on the front of the dual-slot desktop charger indicates
the following:
.
A
red light
indicates the battery is charging.
.
A
green light
indicates the battery is at least 90 percent
charged.
.
A
yellow light
indicates that the battery is operating at a
temperature that is too high or too low, or that there is a poor
connection. Make sure the phone is resting in the charger
slot.
It generally takes about four hours to fully recharge a completely
discharged battery. With the Sprint PCS-approved LiIon battery,
it is practical to recharge the battery before it becomes
completely discharged.
To get the quickest charge for any battery:
.
Turn the phone off.
.
Put the phone with the battery attached, into the front slot of
the charger.
