Battery Capacity
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. It 
allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. 
The battery provides up to 3 hours and 10 minutes of 
continuous digital talk time.
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon 
blinks. When there are approximately two minutes of talk 
time left, the phone sounds an audible alert and then powers 
down.
Installing the Battery
To install the Li-Ion battery:
1.
Insert the battery into the opening on the back of the 
phone at a 45-degree angle, making sure to line up the 
gold contacts. Gently press down until it snaps into 
place.
2.
Install the protective cover by lining up the tabs at a 
and gently press up until the cover snaps into place.
Note:
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, 
and browser use affect the battery’s talk and standby times.
Tip:
Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and 
charge the battery before it runs out of power.
