Tip:

Phone Software Upgrades - Updates to your phone’s software may become
available from time to time. U.S. Cellular will automatically upload critical updates to
your phone. You can also use the menu to check for and download updates. Press
> Settings > Phone Info > Software Update > Check for Update to
search for and download available updates.

Battery and Charger
Warning:

Use only U.S. Cellular-approved or Kyocera-approved batteries and chargers
with your phone. The failure to use a USCC-approved or Kyocera-approved
battery and charger may increase the risk that your phone will overheat,
catch fire, or explode, resulting in serious bodily injury, death, or property

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.
Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, browser use, and other
variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby times.
Tip:

Watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the battery before it runs out
of power.

using voice-activated features and managing voice memos.

Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR)
You can use your phone’s built-in automatic speech recognition (ASR) software to dial a
phone number or to launch phone functions. All you have to do is to talk into the phone,
and ASR will recognize your voice and complete tasks by itself.

You can also activate ASR and use certain features with the phone closed. Press and
hold the external speaker button while in standby mode to turn the keyguard off (if
it is enabled), and then press and hold the external speaker button and follow the
voice prompts.

The phone prompts you to say the name of the command you want to use. To complete
your task, simply follow the voice prompts.
Available ASR commands include:
● Call to call an entry in your Contacts list or a spoken phone number.
See Make a Voice Call Using ASR for details.
● Send Message to send a message to an entry in your Contacts list
or to a spoken phone number. See Send a Message Using ASR for details.
● Lookup to display the detail screen of an entry in your Contacts list. See
Display a Contacts Entry's Information Using ASR for details.
● Go To to jump directly to menu items or applications. See Open Menus
Using ASR for details.
● Check to check your phone’s status. See Check Phone Status Using ASR for
details.
Tip:

Use ASR in a quiet environment so it can accurately recognize your commands.

During ASR operation, press TUTORIAL (left softkey) or HELP (right/left softkey)
to get instructions for using the software.
