Section 1: Getting Started

This section explains how to start using your Messager™ II phone by activating your service, setting up your Voicemail, or getting an understanding of how this manual is put together.

Understanding this User Manual

The chapters of this guide generally follow the same order as the menus and sub-menus in your phone. A robust index for quick reference to most features begins on page 160.
Also included is important safety information that you should know before using your phone. Most of this information is near the back of the guide, beginning on page 132.

Notes and Tips

Throughout this guide there is text that is set apart from the rest. These are intended to point out important information, quick methods for activating features, to define terms, and more. 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 your phone.

Text Conventions

This manual provides condensed information about how to use your phone. To make this possible, the following terms and icon appear in place of repeatedly-used procedural steps:
highlight
Use the Navigation key ( ) to move a highlighting effect onto a menu item or screen item of interest.
select
After “highlighting” a menu item or screen item, press the OK key to launch, access, or save a highlighted menu item or screen field of interest.
Used in place of “select” in long “drill down”
procedure steps.
Example:
“...
Settings
Call Settings
Call Answer
...”

Installing the Battery

Your 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 your phone, otherwise you could damage the battery.

gold contacts on the inside of
the battery to those on the phone.

5
3. Lift the battery (1) up at the

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 your warranty and may cause damage.

Use the Travel Adapter

The travel adapter included with your phone is a convenient, light-weight charger that rapidly charges your 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!:
Press & Hold
Internal Antenna
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 your phone and void your warranty.
2. Insert the smaller end of the Travel Adapter into the
charger/accessory connector on the upper right side of
your phone.
Important!:
You must unplug the adapter before removing the battery from the phone during charging to avoid damage.

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 your phone without charging its battery, the phone will shut 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.

Turning Your Phone On

1. With the phone
closed, press and
hold the key until the display
lights.
Note:
As with any other radio­transmitting device, do not touch the antenna while using your phone as this can affect call quality and can cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than is necessary.
2. The phone begins searching for a network signal.
Getting Started 6
3.
Once the phone finds a signal, the time, date, and day appear near the top of the display.
4. 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 ( ) appears 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.

Turn Your Phone Off

With the phone closed, press and hold the key for two
or more seconds. Your phone powers off.
Note:
If your phone is on and you press for less than one second, the phone will not power off. This prevents your phone from being turned off accidentally.

Setting Up Your Voicemail

Voicemail allows callers to leave voice messages, which can be retrieved any time.
Note:
Once your Voicemail account has been set up, you can use the Voicemail folder (under the Message menu) to view details of voice messages in your Voicemail box.

own mobile number to dial Voicemail.
