Charging 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. Use of
other accessories may invalidate your warranty and may cause
damage.
Low battery indicator
The battery indicator in the upper-right corner of the display indicates
power level. Monitor the battery strength and ensure your battery is
adequately charged. If you continue to use your phone without
charging its battery, the phone will shut down.
• Five bars indicate a full charge.
• An empty battery icon indicates a near-empty battery.
• A blinking empty battery icon and a tone sounding indicate you have
two to three minutes before the battery is too low to operate the phone.
Using the Travel Adapter
The travel adapter included with your phone is a convenient, light-
weight charger that rapidly charges your phone from any 120/220
VAC outlet.
Important!: For connection to an electrical supply not located in North America,
you must use an adapter of the proper configuration for the power
outlet. Use of the wrong adapter could damage your phone and void
your warranty.
