Your phone is designed to make it easy for you to access a wide variety of
content. For your protection, we want you to be aware that some applications
that you enable may involve the location of your phone being shared. For
applications available through Cricket, we offer privacy controls that let you
decide how an application may use the location of your phone and other
phones on your account. However, the Cricket privacy tools do not apply
to applications available outside of Cricket. Please review the terms and
conditions and the associated privacy policy for each location-based service
to learn how location information will be used and protected. In addition, your
Cricket phone may be used to access the internet and to download, and/or
purchase goods, applications, and services from Cricket or elsewhere from
third parties. Cricket provides tools for you to control access to the Internet
and certain Internet content. These controls may not be available for certain
devices which bypass Cricket controls.

Battery use
The following topics explain how to care for your phone’s non-removable battery.
Battery cautions
Storage: Avoid storing or leaving the phone with no charge remaining.
Saved information and settings may become lost or changed, or the
battery may become unusable. Charge once every six months before
storing or leaving unused for a long period of time.
Charge the battery
Follow these instructions to charge your phone’s battery using either the
included AC adapter or via USB connection on your computer.
Charge using the AC adapter
1. Connect one end of the data cable to the USB port located on the bottom
of your phone.

17
2. Connect the other end to the power adapter.
3. Connect the power adapter to an electrical outlet to fully charge your phone.
• Use the power adapter that comes with your phone; using other adapters
may damage your phone.
• Charging your phone with a USB cable connected to a laptop will take
longer than with the power adapter.
• The phone will power off automatically when the battery is too low.
Charge the battery if this happens. When the battery is critically low, the
phone may need a few minutes to build a charge before turning back
on. Playing games or performing other activities while charging may
drain the battery and cause it to power off.
• The battery will gradually discharge if it is left unused for a long period
of time. Before using the battery again, you must recharge it in order to
power on and use your phone normally.
