Section 1: Getting Started
This section explains how to start using your Samsung Finesse™
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 manual 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 182.
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 154.
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 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:
select
Touch a menu item or screen item 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
...”
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.
Getting Started 4
Use the Travel Adapter
Incorrect
Correct
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!:
For connection to an electrical supply not located in North
America, you must use an adapter 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 at the bottom end of your
phone.
5
Caution!:
The touch screen responds best to a light touch from either a finger
or a non-metallic stylus. Using excessive force or a metallic object
when pressing the touch screen may damage the tempered glass
surface and void the warranty noted (For more information, refer to
“Standard Limited Warranty” .)
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.
Install the Battery
Note:
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. From fully
discharged to fully charged, the battery requires up to 4 hours of
charge time.
1. Insert the bottom end of
the battery first,
matching the gold
contacts on the inside of
the battery to those on
the phone.
2. Press lightly on the top end of the battery down into the

䊳
Press and hold the LOCK key ( ), on the top of the
phone, for two or more seconds. Your phone powers off.
