Activating Your Phone

Section 1: Getting Started

Topics Covered

• Activating Your Phone

• Switching the Phone On or Off

• Setting Up Your Voice Mail

This section explains how to start using your phone by first configuring your hardware, activating your service, and then setting up your voice mail.

Activating Your Phone

When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are provided with a plug-in SIM card loaded with your subscription details, such as your PIN, available optional services, and many others features.

Installing the SIM Card

Important!: The plug-in SIM card and its contacts information can be easily damaged by scra tching or

bending, so be careful when handling, inserting, or removing the card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach of small children.

If necessary, switch off the phone by holding down the key until the power-off image displays.

1. Remove the battery cover by sliding the battery cover in the direction of the

arrow.

Getting Started 4

t729.book Page 5 Thursday, July 5, 2007 3:47 PM

Carefully lift the battery cover away from the bottom of the phone.

3. Lift up and remove the battery.

4. Carefully slide the SIM card under the metal bracket and into the SIM card

socket until the card locks into place. Make sure that the card’s gold contacts face into the phone and that the upper-left angled corner of the card is positioned as shown below.

Note: If the card is not inserted correctly, the phone does not detect the SIM card. Remove the battery and

re-orient the card back into the slot.

5. Replace the battery:

• (1) Slide the battery back into the compartment so that the tabs on the end align

with the slots at the bottom of the phone.

• (2) Press the battery down until it clicks into place.

t729.book Page 6 Thursday, July 5, 2007 3:47 PM

Activating Your Phone

Reinstall the battery cover by sliding it back onto the phone until you hear it securely click. Make sure the battery is properly installed before switching on the phone.

Charging a Battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. A travel adapter, which is used for charging the battery, is included with your phone. Use only approved batteries and chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for further details.

You can use the phone while the battery is charging, but doing so requires additional charging time.

Note: You must fully charge the battery before using your phone for the first time. A discharged battery

recharges fully in approximately 4 hours.

1. With the battery installed, temporarily remove the plastic cover on the right

side of the phone and plug in the travel adapter’s connector into the jack.

Getting Started 6

t729.book Page 7 Thursday, July 5, 2007 3:47 PM

Important!: Verify that the handset battery is installed prior to connecting the travel adapter. If the battery

is not installed and the travel adapter is connecte d the handset continuously power cycles and prevents proper operation.

2. Plug the adapter’s power plug into a standard AC wall outlet.

Note: The previous illustration displays the incorrect method for connecting the charger. If attempted,

damage to the accessory port occurs therefore voiding the phone’s warranty.

3. When charging is finished, unplug the adapter’s power plug from the AC

wall outlet and then disconnect the travel adapter’s connector from the phone.

4. Resecure the plastic cover over the interface jack on the phone.

Warning!: Failure to unplug the travel adapter before you remove the battery, can cause damage to

the phone.
