SAR Information
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based
on the safety standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations
through periodic evaluation of scientific studies.
The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of
all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless phones employs a unit of measurement known
as Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. The
highest SAR values for this model phone were Head: 0.67 W/kg,
Body-worn: 1.08 W/kg.

Section 1: Getting Started
PWR

This section explains how to start using your phone by charging your battery, setting
up your voice mail and installing a memory card.
Setting Up Your Phone
SIM Card
Your phone comes with a pre-installed SIM card.
Removing the Battery Cover
1. If the phone is turned on, press and hold until the phone turns off.
2. Remove the battery cover by placing your thumbnail into the slot at the
bottom of the phone (1). If you have fragile nails, use a pointed object.
3. Lift the cover up and off the phone (2).
Getting Started 5
Installing the Battery
1. Insert the battery into the opening on the back of the phone, making sure the
gold contacts align (1).
2. Gently press down to secure the battery (2).
Note:
Make sure the battery is properly installed before switching on the phone.
Replacing the Batter y Cover
1. Place the battery cover on the back of the phone and press down (1).
2. Press down on the bottom of the phone (2) until you hear a light click.

Charging the Battery
Correct
Incorrect
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. The Travel Adapter used to
charge the battery is included with your phone. Use only Samsung-approved
batteries and chargers.
Note:
Before using your phone for the first time, you must fully charge the battery. A discharged
battery requires approximately 4 hours to recharge fully.
Although you can use the phone while the battery is charging, doing so requires
additional charging time.
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, browser use, and other
variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby times.
Using the Travel Adapter
1. With the battery installed, lift and rotate the plastic cover of the Power/
Accessory Interface connector at the top of the phone.
Important!:
Verify that the battery is properly 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 travel adapter connector into the jack on your phone.

PWR
END
Plug the travel adapter power plug into a standard AC wall outlet.
4. When the battery is fully charged, the phone displays a message telling you
the battery is full. Remove the connector from the phone.
Note:
Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery can cause damage to 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 when pressing on
the touch screen may damage the tempered glass surface and void the warranty.
Low Battery Indicator
When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time remain, the battery
icon ( ) blinks and the device 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
device’s display. Five bars ( ) indicate a full charge.
When the battery level becomes too low, the phone automatically turns off.
Switching the Phone On or Off
