Using the Battery
Battery Capacity
Your PCS 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 2.5 hours of continuous digital talk time
(1 hour in analog) or approximately 96 hours of continuous digital
standby time (14 hours in analog).
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 every 30 seconds and then powers down.
Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode and

Tip: Be sure to charge your phone’s battery and watch your indicator to
ensure your levels are okay.
