Charging the Battery
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion
battery. A travel adapter and a battery charger come

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.

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

the battery from the phone during charging;
otherwise, the phone could be damaged.
Low Battery Indicator
When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of
talk time remain, a warning tone sounds and a
message repeats at regular intervals on the display.
When this happens, your phone turns off the
backlight to conserve the remaining battery power.
When the battery level becomes too low, the phone
automatically turns off.
