Assemble Your Device

This section helps you to assemble your device.
Install the SIM Card and a
Memory Card
When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are
provided with a plug-in SIM card. During activation,
your SIM card is loaded with your subscription details, such as your Personal Identification Number (PIN),
available optional services, and other features.
Warning: Please be careful when handling the SIMcard to avoid damaging it. Keep all SIM cards outof reach of small children.
You can also install an optional microSD™, microSDHC™, or microSDXC™ memory card (notincluded) to add more memory space to yourdevice. A memory card can be installed at any time. It is not necessary to install it prior to using the device.
Note: Your phone’s SIM card is preinstalled. These instructions are for reference only.
Caution: Exercise care when using the removal tool to
eject the internal SIM card/Memory card tray.
1. Insert the removal tool into the hole on the
SIMcard/Memory card tray, and then push until the tray pops out.

Page 15
4. Slide the SIM card/Memory card tray back into
theslot.
Note: Your device is IP68 rated for dust and water resistance. To maintain the water-resistant and
dust‑resistant features of your device, make sure
that the SIM card/Memory card tray openings are
maintained free of dust and water, and the tray is
securely inserted prior to any exposure to liquids. For
more information, refer to “Maintaining Water and Dust
Resistance” on page259.
Charge the Battery
Note: You should dry the inside of the charging port
before inserting a power connector to charge your
device. If the charging port is not fully dry, your device may operate abnormally. For example, it may charge more slowly or overheat. For more information, refer to “Maintaining Water and Dust Resistance” on page259.
Your device is powered by a rechargeable, standard
Li-Ion battery. A USB charger (charging head and USB
cable) is included with the device for charging the
battery from any standard outlet.
The battery comes partially charged. You can use the device while charging.
Note: For fastest charging times, use the Adaptive Fast Charger that came with your device. This charger

1. Insert the USB cable into the USB charger/ Accessory port.
Caution: Use only charging devices and batteries
approved by Samsung. Samsung accessories are designed for your device to maximize battery life. Using
other accessories may invalidate your warranty and

regular intervals.
In this condition, your device conserves its remaining
battery power by dimming the screen.
When the battery level becomes too low, the device
automatically turns off.
For a quick check of your battery level:
View the battery charge indicator located in the top
right corner of your device’s display. Asolid color

Page 17
You can also choose to display a percentage value.
Viewing a percentage value can provide a better idea
of the remaining charge on the battery. For more
information, see “Battery” on page212.
While charging, the device and the charger may become hot when using wireless charging or fast
charging. This does not affect the device’s lifespan or
performance and is in the device’s normal range of
operation.
The charger may stop charging if the battery becomes
too hot.
If the device heats up while charging the battery:
1. Disconnect the charger from the device and close
any running apps.
2. Wait for the device to cool down, and then begin
charging the device again.
If the lower part of the device overheats,

If using a wireless charger, do not place foreign
materials between the device and the wireless charger.

Iris Scanner

Use iris recognition as an alternative to entering passwords in certain apps. You can also use your irises to verify your identity when logging in to your Samsung account.
Warning: Some people may have dizziness, seizures, epileptic seizures or blackouts triggered by light flashes or patterns, even if they have never had a seizure or blackout before. Anyone who has had a seizure, loss of awareness, or other symptom linked to an epileptic condition, or has a family history of such symptoms or conditions, should see a doctor before using the Iris scanner.
DO NOT stare directly into the infrared iris recognition LED as prolonged use can cause eye strain. Do not stare at the iris recognition LED light when your eyes
are less than 20 cm (~8 inches) away from the device,
for best results keep your eyes between 25-35cm (~1014inches) away for optimum recognition.
Page 53
Note: The Iris scanner is not intended to be used as a medical device and the biometric data collected and stored locally by the mechanism is not intended to be used for any diagnostic, therapeutic, or preventative purposes. Please follow all instructions for use of this feature.
For best results, remove eyeglasses and sunglasses.
Donot use the Iris scanner in bright sunlight or areas
with excessive reflected light (for example, by the pool
or seashore). Do not use the Iris scanner in low light.
Look straight at the device (not up, down or sideways), and hold your head still for the scan. Tinted contact lenses and surgically repaired or replaced iris lenses
may interfere with operation of the Iris scanner. Do not
walk or operate a vehicle while using the Iris scanner.
For more information, refer to the online support content or visit samsung.com/us/irisscanner.
