time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:

Disposal of Lithium Polymer Batteries
Do not handle a damaged or leaking Lithium Polymer battery as you can be
burned.

nearest Sprint authorized service center.

the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Understanding How Your Phone Operates
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned
on, it receives and transmits Radio Frequency (RF) signals. When you use
your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This
power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.
