22 Section 2A: Phone Basics
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
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 (
) appears and
the phone displays a warning message.
Always use a Sprint-approved 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:
1. Plug the phone charger into a wall outlet.
2. Open the cover of the charger jack located on the side of
your phone.
3. Plug the other end of the phone charger (with the white
triangle marks facing up) into the charger jack.
With the Sprint-approved Li-Ion battery, you can recharge the
battery before it becomes completely run down.
WARNING Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage
to your phone and void the warranty.
