Section 1

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, any optional services available, and many others.

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, switch off the phone by holding down the key until the power-off image displays.

Remove the battery. To do so:

1.Slide the battery lock toward the top of the phone and hold it in that position.

2.Lift the battery away, as shown.

Charging a Battery

YourphoneispoweredbyarechargeableLi-ionbattery.A travel adapter comes with your phone for charging the battery. 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 this causes the phone to charge more slowly.

1 Section

2.Plug the adapter into a standard AC wall outlet.
