You can obtain additional accessories from your•
local Samsung dealer.
The supplied accessories perform best for your•
phone.
Accessories other than the supplied ones may not•
be compatible with your phone.
Install the SIM or USIM card and
battery
When you subscribe to a cellular service, you will receive
a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card, with subscription
details, such as your personal identication number (PIN)
and optional services. To use UMTS or HSDPA services,
you can purchase a Universal Subscriber Identity Module
(USIM) card.

Charge with the travel adapter
Open the cover to the multifunction jack on the side
1
of the phone.
Plug the small side of the travel adapter into the
2
multifunction jack.
Charge the battery
Before using the phone for the rst time, you must charge
the battery.
You can charge the phone with the provided travel adapter
or by connecting the phone to a PC with a PC data cable.
Use only Samsung-approved chargers and cables.
Unauthorised chargers or cables can cause batteries
to explode or damage your phone.
When your battery is low, the phone will emit a
warning tone and display a low battery message.
The battery icon will also be empty and blinking.
If the battery level becomes too low, the phone will
automatically power o. Recharge your battery to
continue using your phone.

Assembling
12
When the battery is fully charged (the battery icon is
4
no longer moving), unplug the travel adapter from the
phone and then from the power outlet.
Do not remove the battery before removing the•
travel adapter. Doing this may cause damage to
the phone.
To ensure peak performance of your battery,•
fully charge and discharge (use until empty) the
battery the rst two or three times.
When you charge the battery for the rst time, charging
your battery completely may take about 3 hours. Because
the battery is a consumable part, the battery will gradually
wear out and the charging time will be reduced. The initial
charging capacity of your battery is about 880 mAh.
Improperly connecting the travel adapter can cause
serious damage to the phone. Any damage caused
by misuse is not covered by the warranty.
Plug the large end of the travel adapter into a power
3
outlet.
You can use the phone while it is charging, but it•
may take longer to fully charge the battery.
While charging, the phone may heat up. This•
is normal and should not aect your phone’s
lifespan or performance.
If your phone is not charging properly, bring your•
phone and the charger to a Samsung Service
Centre.

Assembling 13
Insert a memory card (optional)
To store additional multimedia les, you must insert
a memory card. Your phone accepts microSD™or
microSDHC™memory cards with maximum capacities
of 16 GB (depending on memory card manufacturer and
type).
Samsung uses approved industry standards for
memory cards, but some brands may not be fully
compatible with your phone. Using an incompatible
memory card may damage your phone or the
memory card and can corrupt data stored on the
card.
Your phone supports only the FAT le structure for•
memory cards. If you insert a card formatted with
a dierent le structure, your phone will ask you to
reformat the memory card.
Frequent writing and erasing of data will shorten•
the lifespan of memory cards.
›
Charge with the PC data cable
Before charging, ensure that your PC is turned on.
Open the cover to the multifunction jack on the side
1
of the phone.
Plug one end (micro-USB) of the PC data cable into the
2
multifunction jack.
Plug the other end of the PC data cable into a USB port
3
on a PC.
Depending on the type of PC data cable you are
using, it may take some time before charging
begins.
When the battery is fully charged (the battery icon is
4
no longer moving), unplug the PC data cable from the
phone and then from the PC.

transferring or accessing information, as this could
result in loss of data or damage to the memory card
or phone.
