Charge 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. Using other accessories may invalidate your
warranty and may cause damage.
Use the desktop charger
The desktop charger operates from a 120/220 VAC wall outlet. It also acts as a cradle to hold your phone in a convenient, easy-to-use position while charging.
1. Plug the AC plug from the desktop charger into a
standard 120 VAC or 220 VAC wall outlet.
2. Slide your phone, bottom end first, into the desktop
charger. Your phone begins charging and the battery image appears in the display.
You can use your phone while charging, however, the battery charges faster if the phone is turned off.

Battery indicator

The battery indicator ( ) in the upper-right corner of the display indicates battery power level. Three bars indicate a full charge, while an empty icon ( ) indicates an almost empty battery. Two to three minutes before the battery becomes too low to operate, a blinking empty battery icon ( ) appears and a tone sounds. If you continue to operate the phone without charging, it shuts down.

The headset connector, on top of the phone next to the antenna, is the input jack for the hands-free headset. The headset combines an earbud and microphone in a convenient, lightweight unit so you can talk without using your hands.

Important! Use only the headset provided with the SCH-A790. This headset should not be used on any other phone.

Before connecting the headset, gently slide open the
cover for the input jack to expose the connector inside.
