Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger
Battery Capacity
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery. It allows
you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. The battery
provides approximately 3 hours of continuous digital talk time or
approximately 8 days of continuous digital standby 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.
Note: Long backlight settings, low signal strength, searching for service,
vibrate mode, playing games, or 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.
