touch screen responds best to a light touch from the pad of your
finger. Using excessive force when pressing on the touch screen
may damage the tempered glass surface and void the warranty.
For more information, refer to “Standard Limited Warranty” on
page 182.

Note: Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery can

Low Battery Indicator

When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time
remain, the battery icon (

) blinks and the device sounds a

warning tone at regular intervals. In this condition, your phone
conserves its remaining battery power, not by turning off the
backlight, but by entering the dimming mode. For a quick check
of your battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator
located in the upper-right corner of your device’s display. Five
bars (

) indicate a full charge.

When the battery level becomes too low, the phone automatically
turns off.
