Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s
performance.
ⅷ Use only Sprint-approved batteries and desktop chargers. These
chargers are designed to maximize battery life. Using other batteries or
chargers voids your warranty and may cause damage.
ⅷ In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that
range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).
ⅷ Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity
areas, such as the bathroom.
ⅷ Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
ⅷ Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
ⅷ Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
ⅷ The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period
of time.
ⅷ It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable
performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs
replacing.
ⅷ Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of
time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:
Less than one month:
- 4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)
More than one month:
- 4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)
Disposal of Lithium Ion (LiIon) Batteries
For safe disposal options of your LiIon batteries, contact your nearest Sprint
authorized service center.
Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas,
the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may
be prohibited.
Note: For safety, do not handle a damaged or leaking LiIon battery.
