details, such as your personal identification number (PIN) and
optional services. To use UMTS or HSDPA services, you can
purchase a Universal Subscriber Identity Module (USIM) card.

Remove the back cover.

●

Do not insert a memory card into the SIM card slot.
If the memory card becomes lodged in the SIM card
slot, you must take your device to a Samsung Service
Centre to have the memory card removed.

●

The SIM card slot of your device is only suited for
standard SIM cards. Inserting a microSIM card or a
microSIM card with an unauthorised holder may
cause damage to the SIM card slot of your device.

Insert the battery.

Assembling

16

Charge the battery

Before using the device for the first time or when the battery
has been unused for an extended period, you must charge
the battery. You can charge the battery with a travel adapter
or by connecting the device to a computer with a USB cable.

Use only Samsung-approved chargers and cables.
Unapproved chargers or cables may cause batteries to
explode or damage your device.

●

When your battery is low, the device will emit a
warning tone and show a low battery message.
Recharge your battery to continue using your device.

●

If the battery is completely discharged, you cannot
turn on the device, even with the travel adapter
connected. Allow a depleted battery to charge for a
while before you try to turn on the device.

●

If you use multiple applications at once, network
applications, or applications that need a connection
to another device, the battery will drain quickly. To
avoid disconnecting from the network or losing
power during a data transfer, always use these
applications after fully charging the battery.

Assembling

17

Charge with a travel adapter

›

Plug the small end of the travel adapter into the

1

multifunction jack.

Connecting the travel adapter improperly may cause
serious damage to the device. Any damage caused by
misuse is not covered by the warranty.

Plug the large end of the travel adapter into an electrical

2

socket.

●

If the device receives an unstable power supply while
charging, the touch screen may not function. If this
happens, unplug the travel adapter from the device.

●

The device may heat up while charging. This is
normal and should not affect your device’s lifespan or
performance.

●

If your device is not charging properly, take your
device and the charger to a Samsung Service Centre.

Assembling

18

When the battery is fully charged, first unplug the travel

3

adapter from the device, and then from the electrical
socket.

Do not remove the battery while the device is
connected to the travel adapter. Doing so may damage
the device.

To save energy, unplug the travel adapter when not in
use. The travel adapter does not have a power switch, so
you must unplug the travel adapter from the electrical
socket when not in use to avoid wasting power. The
device should remain close to the electrical socket while
charging.

About the battery charging icons

device.

cards, but some brands may not be fully compatible
with your device. Using an incompatible memory card
may damage your device or the memory card. It may
also corrupt data saved on the memory card.

●

Your device supports only the FAT file structure for
memory cards. If you insert a memory card formatted
with a different file structure, your device will ask you
to reformat the memory card.

●

Frequent writing and erasing of data will shorten the
lifespan of your memory cards.

●

the memory card’s file directory will appear in the
extSdCard folder.
