Section 1: Getting Started

This section explains how to start using your phone by first configuring your hardware, activating your service, and then setting up your Voicemail.

Setting Up Your Phone

Prior to use it is necessary to install both the battery and SIM into their corresponding internal compartments. The microSD™ card slot is also located in this same internal area.

1. Remove the back cover by inserting a fingernail into

the slot on the top side of your phone (1).

2. Lift the cover up and away from the phone (2).

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, available optional services, and many others features.

Important!

The plug-in SIM card information and its contacts can be easily damaged by scratching or bending, so be careful when handling, inserting, or removing the card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach of small children.

Page 13



Carefully slide the SIM card into the SIM card socket (as shown) until the card locks into place.

•

Make sure that the card’s gold contacts face into the phone and that the upper-left angled corner of the card is positioned as shown.

Note:

If the card is not inserted correctly, the phone will not detect the SIM card. Re-orient the card back into the slot if the SIM is not detected.

Installing and Removing the Memory Card

Your phone lets you use a microSD (SD) or microSDHC card to expand available memory space. This secure digital card enables you to exchange images, music, and data between SD-compatible devices. This type of memory card is designed for use with this mobile phone and other devices.

Note:

Your phone was tested to support up to a 32GB memory

card.

1. Push the microSD card into the slot until it clicks.

•

Make sure the microSD’s gold contact pins face downward and the card is securely inserted.

Getting Started 6

Page 14

2. To remove, push on the memory card until it clicks and

is released. Then grasp the memory card and remove it from the phone.

For more information on Memory Cards, see “Memory Card” on page 127.

Installing the Battery

1. Insert the battery into the opening on the back of the

phone, making sure the connectors align (1).

2. Gently press down to secure the battery (2).

Installing the Back Cover

1. Place the battery cover onto the back bottom of the

phone (1) and press down (2).

Page 15

2. Press all along the edge of the back cover until you

have a secure seal.

Note:

Make sure the battery is properly installed before switching on the phone.

Charging the Battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. The Travel Charger that is used to charge the battery, is included with your phone. Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers. Approved accessories are designed to maximize battery life. Using other accessories may invalidate your warranty and may cause damage. Long backlight settings,

searching for service, vibrate mode, web browser use, and other variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby times.

Although you can use the phone while the battery is charging, doing so will require additional charging time.

Note:

You must fully charge the battery before using your phone for the first time. A discharged battery recharges fully in approximately 4 hours.

Using the Travel Charger

1. With the battery installed, locate the Power/Accessory

Interface connector at the bottom of the phone.

Important!

Verify that the handset battery is installed prior to connection. If the battery is not properly installed and the wall charger is connected, the handset may power off and on continuously, preventing proper operation.

2. Plug the flat end of the Travel Charger into the Power/

Accessory Interface connector and the other end into a standard AC wall outlet.

Getting Started 8

Page 16

3. When charging is finished, remove the flat end from

the interface connector jack on the phone.

Warning!

If your handset has a touch screen display, please note that a touch screen responds best to a light touch from the pad of your finger. Using excessive force or a metallic object when pressing on the touch screen may damage the tempered glass surface and void the warranty. see “Standard Limited Warranty” on page 210.

Note:

Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery, can cause damage to the phone.

Low Battery Indicator

When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time remain, the battery icon ( ) blinks and the phone sounds a warning tone at regular intervals. In this condition, your phone conserves its remaining battery power, not by turning off the backlight, but by entering the dimming mode. For a quick check of your battery level, glance at the battery charge indicator located in the upper-right corner of your phone’s display. Solid color ( ) indicates a full charge.

When the battery level becomes too low, the phone automatically turns off.

For battery use information, see “About Device” on page 184.

Using Swype to Enter Text

Swype is a new way to enter text on touch screens. Instead of touching each key, use your finger to trace over each letter of a word. For each word, place your finger on the first letter and glide to the subsequent letters, lifting on the last letter.

This example shows how to enter the word “this”. Put your finger down on the “t” and, without lifting, glide it to the “h”, then to the “i”, then over to the “s”.

Joined Contacts

Many people now maintain multiple email, social networking, and other similar accounts. Your phone can synchronize with multiple accounts, including Facebook, Google, Corporate Exchange, and other email providers.

When you synchronize your phone with these accounts, each account creates separate contact entries for in the Contacts list. Consequently, you may have multiple contact entries for one person.

Linking, or joining, imported contact records allows you to see all the contact’s numbers and addresses together in one contact entry. Linking also helps you keep your contacts updated, because any changes that your contacts make to their information in the respective accounts is automatically updated the next time you synchronize with the account.
