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 voice mail.
Activating Your Phone
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.
Installing the SIM Card
Important!:
The plug-in SIM card and its contacts information 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, switch 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.
5
Lift up and remove the battery.
3.
4. Carefully slide the SIM card under the metal bracket and into the SIM card socket. 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 card is not inserted correctly, the phone does not detect the SIM card. Remove the battery and re-orient the card back into
the slot.
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 snaps into place.
Getting Started 6
Reinstall the battery cover by sliding it back onto the phone until you hear it securely snap. Make sure the
battery is properly installed before switching on the phone.
7
Inserting the Memory Card
1. Place the microSD card into the slot under the SIM card (as shown below). Ensure the microSD’s gold
contact pins face upward and the card is placed so that the indentations on the card face the same direction
as those illustrated.
Warning!:
Your touch screen responds best to a light touch from the pad of your finger or a non-metallic stylus. Using excessive force
or a metallic object when pressing on the touch screen may damage the tempered glass surface and void the warranty see
“Warranty Information” on page 145.
Removing the memory card
䊳
Press in gently on the memory card with your thumbnail or finger until it releases from the slot and carefully
remove the memory card.
Note:
Your phone supports microSD cards of up to 16 GB capacity. Memory cards with over 16GB storage capacity have not been
tested with this phone.
Getting Started 8
Charging a Battery
Correct
Incorrect
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, gently 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.
Note:
The previous illustration displays the correct and incorrect method for connecting the charger. If the charger is inserted
incorrectly, damage to the accessory port occurs therefore voiding the phone’s warranty.
9
When charging is finished, unplug the adapter’s power plug from the AC wall outlet and then disconnect the
3.
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 this password and press either
the OK soft key or .

3. If the phone asks for a PIN, use the keypad to enter the PIN and press either the OK soft key or . For
further details, see “Check PIN code” on page 91.
The phone searches for your network and after finding it, the term “T-Mobile” displays on the upper
left half of your screen. Now you can make or receive calls.
Note:
The display language is preset to Automatic at the factory.
