For a quick check of your battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located in the
upper right corner of your phone
‘s display screen. When there are approximately five minutes of
talk time left, the battery icon (
) turns red and the phone sounds a warning tone.
After an additional five minutes or so, the phone sounds a warning tone three times and then
turns off.

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, browser use, and other
variables may reduce the battery
