Charging the Battery
Your Sprint PCS Phone comes with a
rechargeable battery. You should charge the
battery as soon as possible so you can begin
using your phone.
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is
important. If your battery level becomes too
low, your phone automatically turns off and
you’ll lose everything you were just working
on. For a quick check of your phone’s battery
level, glance at the battery charge indicator
located in the upper-right corner of your
phone’s display screen. If the battery charge
gets too low, the battery icon blinks and the
phone sounds a warning tone.
Always use the Sprint PCS- approved
Desktop Charger, Travel Charger or
Cigarette Lighter Adapter to charge your battery.
