Section 1: Getting Started

This section explains how to start using your Samsung r520™ phone by activating service and setting up Voicemail. This section also explains how this manual is put together.

Understanding this User Manual

The chapters of this manual generally follow the same order as the menus and sub-menus on the phone. A robust index for quick reference to most features begins on page 163.
Also included is important safety information that you should know before using the phone. Most of this information is near the back of the guide, beginning on page 135.

Notes and Tips

Throughout this manual some text is set apart from the rest. In this way, important information, quick methods for activating features, to define terms, and more are emphasized. The definitions for these methods are as follows:
Notes
— Explain alternative options within the current feature, menu,
or sub-menu.
Tips
— Provide quick or innovative methods for performing functions
related to the subject at hand.
Important
— Points out important information about the current
feature that could affect performance, or even damage the phone.

Text Conventions

This manual provides condensed information about how to use the phone. To make this possible, the following terms and icon display in place of repeatedly-used procedural steps:
highlight

select
After “highlighting” a menu item or screen item, press the
MENU-OK
key ( ) to launch, access, or save a highlighted menu item or screen field of interest.

procedure steps.

Installing the Battery

Note:
The phone comes packaged with a partially charged rechargeable standard Li-Ion battery and travel adapter.
Important!:
You must fully charge the battery the first time you use the phone, otherwise you could damage the battery.
1. Insert the top end of the battery first, matching the gold
contacts on the top of the battery to those inside of the
phone battery compartment.
2. Lightly press the bottom end of the battery down into the
phone until it slips into place.
5
3. Place the battery cover over the battery and (1) gently
press down, then (2) slide the cover forward until it clicks

phone.

Charging 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. Use of other accessories may invalidate the warranty and may cause damage.

Use the Travel Adapter

The travel adapter included with this phone is a convenient, light-weight charger that rapidly charges the phone from any 120/220 VAC outlet.
1. Plug the large end of the Travel Adapter into a standard
120 VAC or 220 VAC wall outlet.
Important!:
For connection to an electrical supply not located in North America, you must use an adaptor of the proper configuration for the power outlet. Use of the wrong adapter could damage the phone and void the warranty.
2. Insert the smaller end of the Travel Adapter into the
charger/accessory connector on the right side of your phone.
Important!:
You must unplug the adapter before removing the battery from the phone during charging to avoid damage.
Getting Started 6
Warning!:
Press
If your handset has a touch screen display, please note that a touch screen responds best to a light touch from the pad of your finger or a non-metallic stylus. 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 155.

Turning Your Phone On

1. Open the flip on the phone, as
shown.
2. Press .

Low Battery Indicator

The battery indicator ( ) in the upper-right corner of the display indicates power level. Monitor the battery strength and ensure your battery is adequately charged.
Five bars ( ) indicate a full charge.
An empty battery icon ( ) indicates a near empty battery.
A blinking empty battery icon ( ) and a tone sounding indicate you have two to three minutes before the battery is too low to operate the phone.
If you continue to use the phone without charging the battery, the phone shuts down.

Activating Your Phone

Contact your Wireless Carrier and follow their instructions for obtaining service, if necessary. We suggest that you read this guide to fully understand the services your phone supports.
7
Note:
As with any other radio-transmitting device, do not touch the antenna while using the phone as this can affect call quality and can cause the phone to operate at a higher than necessary power level.
3. The phone begins searching for a
network signal.
4. Once the phone finds a signal, the time, date, and day
display at the top of the display.
5. You’re now ready to place and receive calls.
Note:
If you are outside of your carrier’s coverage or roaming area ( ), the No Service icon ( ) displays at the top of the phone’s display. If you cannot place or receive calls, try later when service is available, or at another location.

Turning Your Phone Off

Press and hold for two or more seconds. The phone
powers off.
Note:
Correct
If the phone is on and you press for less than one second, the phone does not power off. This prevents the phone from accidentally being turned off.

Setting Up Your Voicemail

Voicemail allows callers to leave voice messages, which can be retrieved any time.
Note:
Once your Voicemail account is set up, you can use the Voicemail folder (under the Message menu) to view details of voice messages in the Voicemail box.
1. In Standby mode, press and hold or dial your own
mobile number to dial Voicemail.
2. Follow the prompts in the new user tutorial to setup your
mail box.

Listen to Voicemail

In Standby mode, press and hold or dial your own
mobile number to dial Voicemail. After connecting, you
hear your voice greeting. You are prompted to enter your password.
