Installing the Battery
Switch o your phone before installing or replacing the battery.
1. Place your nger in the slot at the bottom of the back cover to
lift and remove the cover.
2. Insert the battery by aligning the metal contacts on the battery
with the metal contacts in the battery compartment. Gently
push down on the battery until it clicks into place.
3. Align the back cover with the back of the phone and press the
cover back into place. Ensure that all the tabs are secure and
there are no gaps around the cover.
Installing the microSDHC Card
The microSDHC card can be installed and removed while the
phone is turned on. Unmount the microSDHC card before
removing it.
1. Remove the back cover.
2. Hold your microSDHC card with the metal contacts facing
down and slide it in.
NOTE: Some applications may require a microSDHC card to
store certain data on it and to work properly. Therefore, it is
recommended that you keep a microSDHC card installed and not
remove or replace it unnecessarily.
3. Replace the back cover.
Charging the Battery
Your phone’s battery should have enough power for the phone to turn on, nd a signal,
and make a few calls. You should fully charge the battery as soon as possible.
If the battery is low, there will be a pop-up message on the screen.
As you charge your phone, the screen will tell you the exact battery
level on the lock screen. See Locking/Unlocking the Screen and Keys.
WARNING! Use only ZTE-approved chargers and cables. The use
of unapproved accessories could damage your phone or cause the
battery to explode.
1. Connect the adapter to the charging jack. Ensure that the adapter is
inserted with the correct orientation. Do not force the connector into
the charging jack.
2. Connect the charger to a standard AC power outlet. If the phone is on,
you’ll see a charging icon, such as or , appear on the Status Bar.
3. Disconnect the charger when the battery is fully charged.
NOTE: If the battery is extremely low, you may be unable to power on the phone even when
it is being charged. In this case, try again after charging the phone for at least 20 minutes.
Contact customer service if you still cannot power on the phone after prolonged charging.
Extending the Battery Life
Active applications, screen brightness levels, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi usage, and GPS
functionality can drain your battery. You can follow the helpful tips below to conserve
your battery power:
• Reduce the screen backlight time.
• Lower the screen brightness.
• Turn auto-sync, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth o when not in use.
• Disable the GPS function when not in use. Most applications using this function
will periodically query the GPS satellites for your current location; each query drains
your battery.
