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.
Note:
When you need to remove the SIM card, slide it upwards, as
shown, and take it out of the socket.
4. Replace the battery, taking care to match the tabs on the

Getting Started

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.
Getting 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.
Getting Started

Switching the Phone On or Off
1. Press and hold the key until the phone switches on.
2. If the phone asks you to enter the phone password, enter
the password and press the

page 161.
3. If the phone asks for a PIN, enter the PIN and press the
OK
soft key. For further details, see page 162.
The phone searches for your network and, after finding it,
the idle screen appears on the display. Now, you can make
or receive a call.
