Section 1: Getting Started

This section explains how to start using your Samsung U440 phone by activating your service and setting up your Voicemail, and explains 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 157.
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 129.

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:
highlight

select
After “highlighting” a menu item or screen item, press the
MENU-OK
key ( ) to launch, access, or save a highlighted menu item or screen field of interest.

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.

120 VAC or 220 VAC wall outlet.
