Battery

DRAFT

FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY

battery. A Wall/USB Charger (Charging Head and USB cable)
is included with the phone, for charging the battery.

Note:

The battery comes partially charged. You must fully
charge the battery before using your phone for the first
time. A fully discharged battery requires up to 4 hours of
charge time.

After the first charge, you can use the phone while
charging.

Warning!

Use only Samsung-approved charging devices and
batteries. Samsung accessories are designed to
maximize battery life. Using other accessories may
invalidate your warranty and may cause damage.

Note:

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

Battery Indicator

The battery icon in the Annunciator Line shows battery
power level. Two to three minutes before the battery
becomes too low to operate your phone, the empty battery
icon will flash and a tone will sound. If you continue to
operate the phone without charging the battery, the phone
will power off.

Installing the Battery

Charging the Battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. A
wall charger, which is used for charging the battery, is
included with your phone. Use only approved batteries and
chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for further details.

Before using your phone for the first time, you must fully
charge the battery. A discharged battery recharges fully in
approximately 4 hours.

Note:

Verify that the battery is installed prior to connecting the
wall charger. If both the wall charger is connected and
the battery is not installed, the handset will power cycle
continuously and prevent proper operation. Failure to
unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery,
can cause the phone to become damaged.

Important!:

It is recommended you fully charge the battery

before using your device for the first time.

1. Insert the USB cable into the device’s Charger/

3. Plug the charging head into a standard AC power

outlet. The device turns on with the screen locked and
indicates both its charge state and percent of charge.

Warning!:

Entering Text Using Swype

Swype™ is a text input method that allows you to enter a
word by sliding your finger or stylus from letter to letter,

correcting algorithms and a language model to predict the
next word. Swype also includes a tapping predictive text
system.

Put your finger down on the “T”, and without lifting, glide it
to the “h”, then to the “i” then over to the “s”.
