About Your Batteries

Your Digital StarTAC™ phone can use either Lithium
Ion (LiIon) or Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries.
Batteries are available in these sizes: Slim,
Standard, and Extra Capacity.
Your phone can use two batteries at the same time.
You can use any single battery or battery
combination to fit your needs. You can even extend
your talk-time by attaching an auxiliary battery at
any time, without interrupting your call.
All times are approximate and depend on network,
signal strength, and the function selected.
Battery Talk-Time and Standby-Time
Talk-time refers to the time you can talk on your
phone before the battery is fully discharged.
Standby-time is the time that your phone is on but
not used for talking.
Notes:
• Talking on the phone uses more power than
leaving it idle. The more power you use for
talking, the less you'll have for standby-time,
and vice-versa.
• For a complete measure of talk-time or
standby-time, simply combine the time
shown for your main battery to the time
shown for your auxiliary battery.
• All times depend on the battery used,
network configuration, signal strength, and
the features selected.
• Your phone will operate more efficiently in
Digital mode. If the
