Getting Started
Installing the SIM Card

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 displays.
2.Remove the battery. To do so:
Press the catch above the battery and hold it in that position.

3.Slide the SIM card into the SIM card socket, as shown, so that it locks the card into position.
Make sure the golden-colored contacts of the card face into the phone.

5.Slide the battery towards the top of the phone until it clicks into place. Make sure that the battery is properly installed before switching the power on.
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 connector of the travel adapter into the jack at the bottom of the phone.
G etting Started
19
2.Plug the adapter into a standard AC wall outlet.
3.When charging is finished, unplug the adapter from the power outlet and disconnect it from the phone by pressing the buttons 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.
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. If 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.
