Section 1: Getting Started

This section describes the first steps to operating your phone.

SIM Card Information

If necessary, power-off the phone by pressing and holding the
key until the power-off image is displayed.

5
battery cover up and off (2), as shown below.
2. Lift the battery up (1) and away (2) from the phone, as

The plug-in SIM card and its contacts can be easily damaged by scratches or bending. Use caution when inserting or removing the card, and keep all SIM cards out of reach of children.
1. Remove the back cover and battery.
2. Make sure the gold contacts of the SIM card are face
down, then slide the SIM card completely into the socket.

Charging the Battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. Use the wall charger to charge the battery, and use only Samsung approved batteries and chargers.
Note:
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.

1. Open the side slot and plug the connector of the wall
charger jack into the jack on the side of the phone.
Note:
The previous illustration is the correct and incorrect method for connecting the charger. If the incorrect method is attempted, damage to the accessory port will occur therefore voiding the phone’s warranty.
2. Plug the adaptor into a standard AC wall outlet.
3. When the phone is completely charged ( ), unplug the
charger from the power outlet.
4. Remove the adapter from the phone by gently pulling the
connector out and replace the plastic cover back over the
open jack.
Important!:
The battery charging function may stop if you are on a call or viewing a streaming-video while charging your battery.
Note:
During charging, you must unplug the adapter before removing the battery from the phone to avoid damage.

Installing the microSD™ Card
