Section 1: Getting Started
This section explains how to start using your phone by first configuring your hardware, activating your service, and
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 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 phone.
5
Lift up and remove the battery.
3.
4. Carefully slide the SIM card into the SIM card socket until the card touches the back of the 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.
Getting Started 6

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.

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.
3. When charging is finished, unplug the adapter’s power plug from the AC wall outlet and 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.

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.
Installing the Memory Card
Your phone supports an optional memory card (microSD™) for data storage of such things as music, pictures, video
or other files. This type of memory card is designed for use with this mobile phone and other devices.
