Charging the Battery
Charge your battery as soon as possible so you can
begin using your device.
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If
your battery level becomes too low, your phone
automatically turns off, and you will lose any
information you were just working on.
Always use a Sprint-approved or Samsung-approved
desktop charger, travel charger, or vehicle power
adapter to charge your battery.
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 screen. If the battery
charge is getting too low, the battery icon ( ) blinks
and the device sounds a warning tone.
Using the Charger
䊳 Plug the flat end of the charger into the device’s
Accessories/Power Cable Jack and the other end
into an electrical outlet.
With the Sprint-approved Li-Ion battery, you can
recharge the battery before it becomes completely run
down.
Note
You can purchase an optional extended battery that
can extend the usage time for the Samsung Instinct
®
HD™.
