Removing the Back Cover

Prior to use it is necessary to install both the battery and SIM into their corresponding internal compartments. The microSD card slot is also located in this same internal area.

Caution!

Do not bend or twist the back cover excessively. Doing so may damage the cover.

To remove the back cover:

1. Remove the back cover by inserting a fingernail into

the slot on the top of your device (1) then lift the cover up (2).

Installing the SIM and MicroSD Cards

When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are provided with a plugin SIM card loaded with your subscription details, such as your PIN, available optional services, and many others features. You can also install a MicroSD card (memory card) to hold additional media (optional).

Important!

Caution!

The plugin SIM card information 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.

1. Carefully slide the SIM card under the bottom metal

plate into the SIM card slot (as shown).

Make sure that the card’s gold contacts face into the device and that the upper left angled corner of the card is positioned as shown.

Note:

If the card is not inserted correctly, the device will not detect the SIM card. Orient the card back into the slot if the SIM is not detected.

Page 15

2. To insert a MicroSD card (optional), carefully slide the

MicroSD card under the top metal plate into the MicroSD card slot (as shown).

Installing the Battery

1. Insert the battery into the opening on the back of the

device, making sure the connectors align.

2. Gently press down to secure the battery.

Replacing the Back Cover

1. Place the battery cover onto the back of the device and

press down.

Getting Started 9

Page 16

2. Press along the edge of the back cover until you have a

secure seal.

Note:

Make sure the battery is properly installed before switching on the device.

Charging the Battery

Your device is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. The Travel Charger, which is used to charge the battery, is included with your device. Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers.

Note:

You must fully charge the battery before using your device for the first time. A discharged battery recharges fully in approximately 4 hours.

Note:

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, web browser use, and other variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby times.

Although you can use the device while the battery is charging, doing so requires additional charging time.

Page 17

Using the Travel Charger

To use the Travel Charger:

1. Plug the flat end of the Travel Charger into the

Power/Accessory Interface connector and the other end into a standard AC wall outlet.

2. When charging is finished, remove the flat end from

the interface connector jack on the device.

Note:

Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery can cause damage to the device.

Important!

Warning!

Verify that the battery is installed prior to connection. If the battery is not properly installed and the wall charger is connected, the device may power off and on continuously, preventing proper operation.

If your device 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 or a metallic object when pressing on the touch screen may damage the tempered glass surface and void the warranty.

Page 18

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 device 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. Solid color ( ) indicates a full charge.

When the battery level becomes too low, the device automatically turns off.

You can also choose to display a percentage value. Having a percentage value onscreen can provide a better idea of the remaining charge on the battery.
