Dynamic Noise Suppression from Audience

Your phone is equipped with an advanced voice processing chip that delivers clear mobile calls by suppressing background noise, intermittent sounds (like a siren or nearby conversation), and echoes, allowing you to hear and be heard nearly anywhere.

How Does It Work?

Based on the intelligence of the human hearing system, the technology:

•

The noise suppression technology is built-in and already enabled in your new mobile phone. So it's ready to provide unsurpassed voice clarity with every call.

Captures, evaluates and distinguishes all the sound signals surrounding your phone, and the person you're speaking with. Then isolates the primary voice in conversation and filters out the background noise - so the person you're calling hears only your voice,

without disturbing background noise.

Dynamically equalizes and adjusts voice volume to optimize your calling experience, so you can hear clearly and don't need to speak louder to

overcome surrounding noise.

Installing the Battery

1. Insert the battery into the opening on the back of the

phone, making sure the contacts align (1).

Gently press down to secure the battery (2).

Removing and Installing the Memory Card

You can use an optional microSD (SD) or microSDHC card to expand available memory space if you desire. These secure digital cards enable 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.

Page 13

Installing the Memory Card



Push the microSD card into the slot until it clicks (as shown).

•

Make sure the microSD’s gold contact pins face downward and the card is securely inserted.

Installing the Back Cover

Note:

Water-resistant and dustproof based on IP67 rating, which tests submersion up to 1 meter for up to 30 minutes. Not shockproof. Covers must be tightly closed.

(For more information on Memory Cards, see “Memory Card” on page 42.)

Removing the Memory Card

1. Push on the memory card until it clicks and releases.

2. Grasp the memory card and remove it from the phone.

Important!

Before closing the cover, check to see if there is

any foreign substance such as dust or sand between the rubber on the back of the cover and the sealing area.

Place the battery cover onto the back of the phone and

press down.

Getting Started 6

Page 14

2. Securely press down around the edges until you hear

clicking. To avoid water damage, ensure that the back cover is completely closed by pressing just below the flash.

Caution!

When replacing the battery cover, do not apply pressure to the screen (“squeeze”) as this can damage the screen.

Caution!

Be careful not to damage or detach the USB cover. A damaged or missing cover can result in water damage to the device.

Note:

Make sure the battery is properly installed before switching on the phone.

Maintaining water and dust resistance

This device is rated IP67 using the Ingress Protection rating system. The dust rating is 6 (highest level of protection), and the water resistance rating is 7 (water resistant up to 1 meter for up to 30 minutes). Despite this classification, your device is not impervious to water damage in any situation. It is important that all compartments are closed tightly.

Follow these tips carefully to prevent damage to the device.

•

Whenever your device gets wet, dry it thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth.

•

Do not expose the device to salt water or ionized water, or to water over 1 meter deep for more than 30 minutes. If your device is exposed to salt water, wash the device with fresh water then dry thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth. Otherwise, when it dries, salt may accumulate and block the microphone, earpiece, and speaker.

•

When drying off your device, be sure to pat the earpiece (top front of phone), microphone (bottom of phone), and speaker (rear of phone) with a clean, soft cloth to remove as much water as possible.

Page 15

•

When making a call immediately after your device is wet, the microphone may have water in it which may lower the volume that the other person will hear. After drying off the device, allow the device to air-dry before making a call.

•

The back and multipurpose jack covers may be loosened slightly if the device is dropped or receives an impact. Ensure that all the covers are properly aligned and tightly closed. Otherwise, they may not provide protection from water and dust.

•

Always keep the multipurpose jack cover clean and be careful to avoid damaging it.

Note:

The touch screen may not be active in water.

Charging a Battery

Your device is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. The UDB cable 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. Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, web browser use, and other variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby times.

Although you can use the phone while the battery is charging, doing so will require additional charging time.

Getting Started 8

Page 16

Using the USB Charger

1. Plug the flat end of the USB charger into the Power/

Accessory Interface connector and the other end into a standard AC wall outlet.

2. When charging is finished, remove the flat end from

the interface connector jack on the phone.

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.

Warning!

If your handset has a touch screen display, 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. “Standard Limited Warranty” on page 198.)

Note:

Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery, can cause damage to the phone.
