Setting Up Your Phone

Install the 4G LTE SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card, battery, and optional memory card; then charge the battery to begin using your phone.
Tip:
Your SIM card is pre-installed. For more information, refer to “SIM Card” on page 9.
Note:
A memory card is not included with your phone. Memory cards are sold separately.
8
Back Cover
The battery, SIM card, and optional memory card are installed under a removable cover on the back of the device.
Removing the battery cover
Pull up using the slot provided (1), while lifting the cover off the phone (2).
Note:
The battery cover is flexible. Take care to avoid bending or twisting the cover when removing and installing, to prevent damage to the cover.
SIM Card
Your phone uses a 4G LTE SIM (Subscriber Identity Module). The 4G LTE SIM is a small, rectangular plastic card that stores your phone number, information about your wireless service, and other information such as messages.
The SIM card is installed under the back cover, and must remain in the device when in use.
Note:
If you purchased your phone at a Verizon Wireless store, the SIM card is activated and ready to use. If you ordered a new phone, the card may need to be activated before you can use it. For more information about activating the SIM card, visit: http://www.verizonwireless.com/4GSIM.
Caution!
Turn the phone off before installing or removing the SIM card. Do not bend or scratch the SIM card. Take care when handling, installing, or removing the SIM card, and avoid exposing the SIM card to static electricity, water, or dirt. Keep the SIM card out of reach of small children.
Installing the 4G LTE SIM Card
1. With the Verizon Wireless logo facing up, carefully
insert the 4G LTE SIM Card into the slot, pressing gently until it locks into place.
2. 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.
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.
Getting Started 9
Installing the Battery
Important!
The battery provided with your device contains a Near Field Communication (NFC) antenna. To ensure proper operation of the NFC features, do not use any other battery in your device.
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).
10
Removing and Installing the Memory Card
You can use a microSD (SD) or microSDHC memory 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:
Your phone has been tested to support up to a 64GB memory card.
Installing the Memory Card
With the gold contacts facing down, slide the memory card into the slot and gently push it into place.
Installing the Back Cover
1. Place the battery cover onto the back of the phone (1)
and press down (2).
For more information on Memory Cards, see “Memory Card” on page 35.

Getting Started 11
Note:
Make sure the battery is properly installed before
switching on the phone.

Charging a Battery

Your 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.
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.
Although you can use the phone while the battery is charging, doing so will require additional charging time.
12
1. Plug the flat end of the Travel Charger into the
charging/USB port and the other end into a standard AC wall outlet.
2. When charging is finished, remove the flat end from
the interface connector port on the phone.
Warning!
Please note that a touch screen responds best to a light touch from the pad of your finger. Using excessive force or a metallic object when pressing on the touch screen may damage the tempered glass surface and void the warranty. For more information, refer to “Standard Limited Warranty” on page 205.
Note:
Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery, can cause 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 color ( ) indicates a full charge.
When the battery level becomes too low, the phone automatically turns off.
You can also choose to display a percentage value. Having a percentage value on-screen can provide a better idea of the remaining charge on the battery.
