Battery

Note: This phone comes packaged with a partially charged, rechargeable standard Li-Ion battery and travel charger.

Important! Although the phone can be used while the battery is charging, the battery must be fully charged before first use; otherwise, you could damage the battery.

Using A Non-Supported Battery

Samsung handsets do not support the use of an unsupported battery. When using a non-supported battery, you will hear a series of beeps, and you will see a warning message that indicates “NON-SUPPORTED BATTERY SEE USER GUIDE”.

If you receive this warning, battery charging has been disabled.

Samsung charging accessories (i.e., travel adapter and vehicle power adapter) will only charge a Samsung-approved battery. To continue using your handset, press the Center Select key.

Note: When using a non-supported battery, the handset can only be used for the duration of the life of the battery and cannot be recharged.

Important!: Using a non-supported battery may cause damage to your phone. Use a Samsung-supported battery only.

Install the Battery

  1. Insert the top end of the battery into the phone housing with the label side down. The gold contacts on the end of the battery should match up with those on the phone.
  2. Push the bottom end of the battery down until it snaps securely into place over the battery release latch.

Remove the Battery

  1. Press END to turn off the phone (if on).
  2. Press the battery release latch at the bottom of the phone. The bottom of the battery should pop up.
  3. Use your finger to lift the battery (bottom end first) up and away from the phone.

Charge the Battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable standard Li-ion battery. Only use 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.

Travel Charger

The travel charger is a convenient, lightweight charger that rapidly charges your phone from any 120/ 220 VAC outlet.

  1. Plug the large end of the travel charger into a standard 120/220 VAC wall outlet.
  2. Slide the power/ accessory connector cover down.
  3. Insert the smaller end of the travel charger into the charger/ accessory connector at the left side of the phone.
  4. Plug the adapter into a standard AC wall outlet.
  5. When you have completed the charging cycle, unplug the Travel Adapter from the power outlet and then disconnect it from the phone.

Battery Indicator

The battery indicator in the upper-right corner of the display indicates battery power level. Four bars indicate a full charge, while an empty icon indicates an almost empty battery. Two to three minutes before the battery becomes too low to operate, a blinking empty battery icon appears and a tone sounds. If you continue to operate the phone without charging, it shuts down.

Phone Memory

The following file types can be saved to the phone memory:

Note: Up to 22MB of memory is available for storing the file types listed below and downloaded applications.

  • My Pictures: Pictures you have saved from a Picture message, downloaded via the “Get It Now” application, or taken using your phone.
  • My Sounds: Sounds recorded using your phone, or saved from a Picture message with sound attached.
  • My Ringtones: Ringtones you have downloaded via the “Get It Now” application.

Music Memory

A separate storage space of up to 2GB* is available for storing music files (.mp3, .wma, wma pro, aac, and .aac+ format files) on your phone for playback using the Music Player.

The actual formatted capacity is less.

Care and Maintenance

Your phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The suggestions below will help you fulfill any warranty obligations and allow you to enjoy this product for many years.

  • Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small children.
  • Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity, and liquids contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
  • Do not use the phone with a wet hand. Doing so may cause an electric shock to you or damage to the phone.
  • Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas, as its moving parts may be damaged.
  • Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
  • Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone warms up to its normal operating temperature, moisture can form inside the phone, which may damage the phone’s electronic circuit boards.
  • Do not drop, knock, or shake the phone. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards.
  • Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water solution.
  • Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device’s moving parts and prevent proper operation.
  • Do not put the phone in or on heating devices, such as a microwave oven, a stove, or a radiator. The phone may explode when overheated.
  • If your phone is equipped with an external antenna, use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas or modified accessories may damage the phone and violate regulations governing radio devices.
  • If the phone, battery, charger, or any accessory is not working properly, take it to your nearest qualified service facility. The personnel there will assist you, and if necessary, arrange for service.
