interference.

Caring for the Battery

Protecting Your Battery

The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your

battery’s performance.

Recently there have been some public reports of wireless

phone batteries overheating, catching fire, or exploding. It

appears that many, if not all, of these reports involve

counterfeit or inexpensive, aftermarket-brand batteries with

unknown or questionable manufacturing standards. Sprint is

not aware of similar problems with Sprint phones resulting

from the proper use of batteries and accessories approved

by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone. Use only Sprint-

approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and

accessories found at Sprint Stores or through your phone’s

manufacturer, or call 1-866-866-7509 to order. They’re also

available at

www.sprint.com

Accessories

. Buying the

right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure

they’re genuine and safe.

In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in

temperatures that range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).

Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high

humidity areas, such as the bathroom.

Never dispose of the battery by incineration.

Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.

Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.

The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for

a long period of time.

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.

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)

Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) Batteries

Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can

be burned.

For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries, contact your

nearest Sprint authorized service center.

Special Note

: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In

some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or business

trash may be prohibited.
