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!

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

2. Remove the battery. To do so:

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.

➀

Press and hold down the catch above the

battery on the back of the phone.

➁

Slide the battery away, as shown.

Getting started

3. Slide the SIM card into the SIM card socket, as shown, so that it locks the card into position.

Make sure the gold contacts of the card face into the phone.

Note

slide it, as shown, and take it out of the socket.

4. Place the battery back on the phone. Make sure each side tab of the battery placed into corresponding slot on the phone.

5. Slide the battery up towards the catch until it locks into place.

Charging the battery

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

The travel adapter allows you to use the phone while the battery is charging, but this causes the phone 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, plug the travel adapter connector into the jack at the bottom of the phone.

Getting started

2. Plug the adapter into a standard AC wall outlet.

While charging, the battery icon at the top right corner of the display repeatedly fills to show that the battery is charging.

3. When charging is finished, the battery icon becomes solid and the “Fully charged” message is displayed, unplug the adapter from the power outlet and from the phone by pressing the gray tabs on both sides of the connector and pulling the connector out.

Note

: You must unplug the adapter before removing

the battery from the phone during charging; otherwise, the phone could be damaged.
