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.
Activating Your Phone
When you subscribe to a wireless network, you are provided with a plug-in SIM card loaded with your subscription
details, such as your PIN, available optional services, and other features.
Installing the SIM Card
Important!:
The plug-in SIM card 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.
If necessary, power off the phone by holding down the key until the power-off image displays.
1. Remove the battery cover by sliding the battery cover in the direction of the arrow.
2. Carefully lift the battery cover away from the bottom of the phone.

4. Carefully slide the SIM card under the metal bracket and into the SIM card socket 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 below.
Note:
If the SIM card is not installed correctly, the phone will not detect the SIM card. Remove the battery and reinstall the card.

5.
Replace the battery:
•
Slide the battery back into the compartment so that the tabs on the end align with the slots at the bottom of the phone.
•
Press the battery down until it clicks into place.

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. A travel adapter, which is used for charging the battery, is
included with your phone. Use only approved batteries and chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for further
details.
You can use the phone while the battery is charging, but doing so requires 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.
1. With the battery installed, temporarily remove the plastic cover on the right side of the phone and plug in the
travel adapter’s connector into the jack.
Important!:
Verify that the handset battery is installed prior to connecting the travel adapter. If the battery is not installed and the travel
adapter is connected the handset continuously power cycles and prevents proper operation.
2. Plug the adapter’s power plug into a standard AC wall outlet.
Getting Started 10
Note:
The previous illustration displays the incorrect method for connecting the charger. If attempted, damage to the accessory port
occurs therefore voiding the phone’s warranty.
3. When charging is finished, unplug the adapter’s power plug from the AC wall outlet and then disconnect the
travel adapter’s connector from the phone.
4. Resecure the plastic cover over the interface jack on the phone.
Warning!:
Failure to unplug the travel adapter 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; a warning tone sounds and the “Battery low”
message repeats at regular intervals on the display. In this condition, your phone conserves its remaining battery
power, not by turning off the backlight, but by entering the dimming mode.
When the battery level becomes too low, the phone automatically turns off.
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, use the keypad to enter the password and press either the
Confirm soft key or the key.
Note:

3. If the phone asks for a PIN, use the keypad to enter the PIN and press either the Confirm soft key or the
key. For further details, see “Check PIN code” on page 109.
The phone searches for your network and after finding it, you can make or receive calls.
