you can use it immediately after you activate, without any hassle. Use the battery until it is completely drained. Recharging the battery without first completely draining or discharging it may shorten the life of the battery.

Installing your battery.

To install your battery, just follow these simple steps:

1.Hold the battery with the label racing down, making sure the metal contacts at the base of the base battery line up with the metal contacts on the base of the phone.

2.Place it on the back of the phone with the top of the battery about a quarter of an inch from the latch.

3.Gently slide the battery toward the top of the phone until it clicks into place.

Turning your phone on and off

When you're ready to turn on your Samsung DBTM Phone, check to see that the charged battery has been installed in the back of the phone or that you have an external power source(the Rapid Cigarette Lighter Adapter or the Hands-Free Car Kit).Then, Simply press and hold <END>.

The red light flashes briefly and the banner is displayed, which means you're ready to make a call. Turning off the phone is just as simple. Press and hold <END> for two seconds. The display will be blank when the power is off.

1.First, turn the power off to avoid losing stored numbers and messages.

2.Press the battery release latch on the back of the phone while sliding the battery down toward the base of the phone.

Charging your battery.

 

 

You can tell whether or not your battery

needs to be recharged just by checking the lower-right

corner

of your

phone's display,

where the

battery charge indicator is located. When the battery

charge

level is

low, the battery

icon will

blink and the phone will sound a tone.

If you continue to use your phone without recharging and the battery level becomes too low it will turn off automatically. An alert tone will sound just before the phone turns itself off. If this

happens, unfortunately you'll lose whatever you were just doing. So, watch the indicator and make sure your level is okay.

To charge your battery, you should use the Samsung DBTM Rapid Desktop Charger, Travel Charger or Rapid Cigarette Lighter Adapter from Samsung.

will let you know the battery
