Charging the Battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable standard Li-Ion battery. Only use Samsung-approved charging devices and batteries. Samsung accessories are designed to maximize battery life. Use of other accessories may invalidate your warranty and may cause damage.

Use the Travel Adapter

1. Plug the large end of the Travel Adapter into a standard
120 VAC or 220 VAC wall outlet.
Important!:
For connection to an electrical supply not located in North America, you must use an adaptor of the proper configuration for the power outlet. Use of the wrong adapter could damage your phone and void your warranty.
2. Insert the smaller end of the Travel Adapter into the
charger/accessory connector on the right side of your phone.
Important!:
You must unplug the adapter before removing the battery from the phone during charging to avoid damage.

Page 97
Note:
After you adapt Digit Dial, your phone is customized to your voice, and your voice only. Others will not be able to use it unless they reset the Digit Dialing to factory defaults. (For more information, refer to “Reset Digits” on page 95.)
Adaptation involves recording several sequences of four digits each. The recording process takes about a minute.
Tips for Adapting Digit Dialing
Use Adapt Digits in a quiet place.
Make sure you wait for the beep before starting to speak.
Speak clearly, and say each digit distinctly.
If you make a mistake while recording a sequence of digits, or if there is an unexpected noise that spoils the recording, re-record that sequence.
Only adapt digits if you are regularly having problems with digit dialing. Once you adapt, digit dialing will not work as well for other people using your phone. (You can always reset digit adaptation to its original state, as described below.)
Adapt Digits
To adapt digit dialing, do the following:
1. At the Voice SVC sub-menu, select Voice Settings
Digit Dialing Adapt Digits.
Your phone displays the first digit sequence and “Please say” plays through the speaker followed by the four digits
appearing in the display.
2. Wait for the beep and say the digits using your normal tone
of voice. After a moment, the phone plays back the recording and prompts “Did the recording sound ok?”
If the recording was good, say “
If you need to re-record, say “No.”
Yes
.”
If you say “No,” the phone prompts you to pronounce the
digits again. Wait for the beep and then say the digits.
Repeat this step until you’re satisfied with the recording.
3. After confirming that the recording sounds “ok”, continue
the recording process with the next set of digits.
4. After six sets of digits, the phone asks whether you want to
do more adaptation. Answer “Ye s.”
5. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for another six sets of digits. After
the second group of six sets of digits, “Adaptation
complete” plays through the speaker and you are returned to the Adapt Digits menu.
