The display and keypad are illuminated by a backlight. When you press any key, the backlight turns on and remains on for a given period of time, depending on the Back Light menu option (Menu 4.6.2). Then it dims and finally switches to the digital clock, conserving your battery power.

To specify the length of time for which the backlight is active, set the Back Light menu; see page 90 for further details.

Service Light

The service light is on the top left on the phone. It flashes when services are available on the phone.

To activate or deactivate use of the service light, set the Service Light menu option (Menu 4.6.3); see page 91 for further details.

Getting Started

Installing the SIM Card

When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are provided with a plug-in SIM card loaded with your subscription details, such as your PIN, any optional services available and so on.

Important! The plug-in SIM card and its contacts

can be easily damaged by scratches or bending, so be careful when handling, inserting or removing the card.

Keep all SIM cards out of the reach of small children.

1. If necessary, switch off the phone by holding down the key until the power-off image is displayed.

2. Remove the battery. To do so: ➀ Slide the battery catch on the back of the

phone and hold it in that position.

➁ Lift the battery away, as shown.

Getting Started

3. Slide the SIM card into the SIM card holder so that the holder locks the card in position.

Make sure that the cut corner is top right and the gold contacts of the card face into the phone.

Note

: When you need to remove the SIM card, slide

it, as shown below, and take it out of the holder.

4. Place the battery so that the tabs on the end align with the slots at the bottom of the phone.

Getting Started

5. Push the battery down until it clicks into place. Make sure that the battery is properly installed before switching on the phone.

Charging a Battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. A travel adapter is provided with your phone. Use only approved batteries and chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for further details.

The phone can be used while the battery is charging, but this will cause the battery to charge more slowly.

Note

: You must fully charge the battery before using

your phone for the first time. A discharged battery is fully recharged in approximately 200 minutes.

1. With the battery in position on the phone, connect the lead from the travel adapter to the bottom of the phone.

Getting Started

2. Connect the adapter to a standard AC wall outlet.

3. When charging is finished, disconnect the adapter from the power outlet and from the phone by pressing the buttons on both sides of the connector and pulling the connector out.

: Do not remove the battery from the phone while

Note

it is charging without first unplugging the adapter. If you do so, the phone may be damaged.

Low Battery Indicator

When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time remain, you will hear a warning tone and a message will be repeated at regular intervals on the display. If this happens, your phone will turn off the backlight to conserve the remaining battery power.

When the battery becomes too weak for the phone to operate, it switches off automatically.

Getting Started

Switching the Phone On/Off

1. Hold down the key until the phone switches on.

2. If the phone asks for a password, key in the password and press the OK soft key. The phone password is factory set to 00000000. For further details, see page 125.

3. If the phone asks for a PIN, key in the PIN and press the OK soft key. For further details, see page 126.

The phone searches for your network and when it finds it, the idle screen, illustrated below, appears. Now, you can make or receive a call.
