Section 1: Getting Started

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

Setting Up Your Phone

Prior to use it is necessary to install both the battery and SIM into their corresponding internal compartments.
Remove the back cover by inserting a fingernail into the slot on the top of your phone and lifting the cover up and away from the phone.
Installing the SIM Card
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.
Important!
The plug-in SIM card information and its contacts
can be easily damaged by scratching or bending, so be careful when handling, inserting, or removing the card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach of small children.
Carefully slide the SIM card into the SIM card socket ( as shown) 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.
Getting Started 1
Page 12
Note:
If the card is not inserted correctly, the phone will not detect the SIM card. Re-orient the card back into the slot if the SIM is not detected.
2
Installing the Battery
1. Insert the battery into the opening on the back of the phone, making sure the connectors align (1).
2. Gently press down to secure the battery (2).
Page 13
Removing and Installing a Memory Card
You can use a microSD  (SD) or microSDHC card to expand available memory space if you desire. This secure digital card enables you to exchange images, music, and data between SD-compatible devices. This type of memory card is designed for use with this mobile phone and other devices.
Note:
Yo ur phone has been tested to support up to a 32GB memory card.
Installing the Memory Card
1. Insert a memory card with the gold-coloured contacts facing upwards.
2. Push the memory card into the memory card slot until it locks in place.
Make sure the microSD’s gold contact pins face the back of the device and the card is securely inserted.
3. To remove the microSD card, reverse the procedure.
For more information on Memory Cards, see “Memory Card” on page 32.
Getting Started 3
Page 14
Installing the Back Cover
1. Place the battery cover onto the back of the phone and press down.
2. Press along the edge of the back cover until you have a secure seal.
Important!
When placing the cover back on the phone, press
down firmly along the edges to ensure that the cover is flush with the phone. This will ensure that the battery compartment is pressurized and that the phone is waterproof.
4
Note:
Make sure the battery is properly installed before switching on the phone.

Charging a Battery

You r device is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. The Travel Charger that is used to charge the battery, is included with your device. Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers.
Note:
You must fully charge the battery before using your phone for the first time. A discharged battery recharges fully in approximately 4 hours.
Note:
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, web browser use, and other variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby times.
Although you can use the phone while the battery is charging, doing so will require additional charging time.
Page 15
Using the Travel Charger
Important!
Verify that the handset battery is installed prior to
connection. If the battery is not properly installed and the wall charger is connected, the handset may power off and on continuously, preventing proper operation.
1. Plug the small end of the Travel Charger into the Power/ Accessory Interface connector.
2. Plug the other end into a standard AC wall outlet.
3. When charging is finished, remove the flat end from the
interface connector jack on the phone.
Warning!
A touch screen responds best to a light touch from t he
pad of your finger. Using ex cessive fo rce or a metallic object when pressing on the touch screen may damage the tempered glass surface and void the warranty.
Note:
Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery, can caus e damage to the phone.
Low Battery Indicator
When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time remain, the battery icon ( ) blinks and the device sounds a warning tone at regular intervals. In this condition, your phone conserves its remaining battery power, not by turning off the backlight, but by entering the dimming mode. For a quick check of your battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upper-right corner of your device’s display. Solid colour ( ) indicates a full charge.

When the battery level becomes too low, the phone automatically turns off.

Joining Contacts

Joining Contact Information
Many people now maintain multiple email accounts, social networking logins, and other similar accoun t information. For example, a Facebook account login name might differ from a corporate email account login because they are maintained separately and for different groups of people.
This device can synchronize with multiple accounts such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Corporate email, and Google. When you synchronize your phone with these accounts, each account creates a separate contact entry in the Contacts list.
If one of your contacts (Amy Smith, for example) has a regular email account that you maintain in Gmail, but also has a Facebook account under her maiden and married name, as well as a Yahoo! chat account, when you merge these accounts into your Contacts list you can join all of her entries and view the information in one record.
The next time you synchronize your phone with your account s, any updates that contacts make to email account names, email addresses, etc. automatically update in your contacts list.
