Getting Started 7

Understanding this User Manual

The chapters of this guide generally follow the same order as the menus and sub­menus in your phone. A robust index for quick reference to most features begins on page 162.
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
139.

Notes and tips

Throughout this guide are icons and text that are 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.

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.

Press
Tip: Your phone has an internal antenna. Do not touch the phone
case over 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.
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.
Antenna

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. Using 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.
Note: 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.
