Assembling

Unpack

Check your product box for the following items:

•Mobile device

•USB power adapter

•PC data cable

•Headset

•Quick start guide

Use only Samsung-approved software. Pirated or illegal software may cause damage or malfunctions that are not covered by your manufacturer's warranty.

•The items supplied with your device may vary depending on the software and accessories available in your region or offered by your service provider.

•You can obtain additional accessories from your local Samsung dealer.

•The supplied accessories perform best for your device.

•Accessories other than the supplied ones may not be compatible with your device.

Charge the battery

Your device has a built-in battery. Before using the device for the first time, you must charge the battery.

Use only Samsung-approved chargers. Unauthorised chargers can cause batteries to explode or damage your device.

•Charge the battery only with the supplied charger. You cannot charge the battery with the PC data cable.

•When your battery is low, the device will emit a warning tone

	and display a low battery message. The battery icon will also
	be empty. If the battery level becomes too low, the device will
	automatically power off. Recharge your battery to continue using
	your device.
1	Connect the PC data cable to the USB power adapter and then plug the
	end of the PC data cable into the multifunction jack.

The shape of the USB power adapter may differ depending on your region.

8 Assembling

Connecting the PC data cable improperly may cause serious damage to the device or USB power adpater. Any damage caused by misuse is not covered by the warranty.

2 Plug the USB power adapter into a power outlet.

•You can use the device while it is charging, but it may take longer to fully charge the battery.

•While the device is charging, the touch screen and the touch keys may not function due to an unstable power supply. If this happens, unplug the USB power adapter from the power outlet or unplug the PC data cable from the device.

•While charging, the device may heat up. This is normal and should not affect your device’s lifespan or performance.

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

3 When the battery is fully charged (the battery icon is no longer moving), unplug the USB power adapter and PC data cable from the device and then from the power outlet.

To save energy, unplug the USB power adapter when not in use. The USB power adapter does not have a power switch, so you must unplug the USB power adapter from the outlet to interrupt the power supply. The USB power adapter should remain close to the socket when in use.

Insert the SIM or USIM card

When you subscribe to a cellular service, you will receive a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card, with subscription 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.

•To use a micro-SIM card, you must first insert the micro-SIM card in a SIM adapter. Inserting a micro-SIM card without a SIM adapter may damage the card or device.

•Use care to avoid separating the micro-SIM card from the SIM adapter when inserting or removing it from the device.

To install the SIM or USIM card,

1	Open the cover to the SIM card slot on the side of the device.
2	Insert the SIM or USIM card.

Assembling 9

•Place the SIM or USIM card into the device with the gold-coloured contacts facing down.

•Do not insert a memory card into the SIM card slot.

3 Close the cover of the SIM card slot.

Insert a memory card (optional)

To store additional files, you must insert a memory card. Your device accepts microSD™ or microSDHC™ memory cards with maximum capacities of 32 GB (depending on memory card manufacturer and type).

Samsung uses approved industry standards for memory 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 and can corrupt data stored on the card.

•Your device supports only the FAT file structure for memory cards. If you insert a 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 memory cards.

•When you insert a memory card in your device, the file directory of the memory card will appear in the external_sd folder under the internal memory.

Formatting your memory card on a PC may cause incompatibilities with your device. Format the memory card only on the device.

In Menu mode, select Settings → SD card and device storage → Unmount SD card → OK → Format SD card → Format SD card → Erase everything.
