Prepare Your Device

Charge the Battery

Your device is powered by a rechargeable, standard Li-Ion battery. A Wall/USB Charger (Charging Head and USB cable) is included with the device, for charging the battery.
The battery comes partially charged. You must fully charge the battery before using your device for the first time. A fully discharged battery requires up to 4 hours of charge time. After the first charge, you can use the device while charging.
Warning: Use only Samsung-approved charging devices and batteries. Samsung accessories are designed to maximize battery life. Using other accessories may invalidate your warranty and may cause damage.
Your device comes with a charger (charging head and USB cable) to charge your device from any 110/220 VAC outlet.
Caution Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery, can cause damage to the device.
When to Charge the Battery
1. Insert the USB cable into the port.
2. Connect the USB cable to the charging head, then plug the charging head into a standard ACpower outlet.
3. When charging is complete, unplug the charging head from the power outlet and remove the USB cable from the device.
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 back light, but by entering the dimming mode.
When the battery level becomes too low, the device automatically turns off.
► For a quick check of your battery level, glance at
the battery charge indicator located in the upper­right corner of your device’s display. Solid color (
) indicates a full charge.
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. For more information, see “Battery” on page72.
