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 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)

of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.
