THE SAMSUNG SGH-E710 QUICK START GUIDE
Getting started...
Before you can do any of this, first you need to make sure your handset is
prepared.
1. Insert your SIM card:
Pull the battery lock upwards, and remove the battery. Slide your Vodafone
SIM card (with the gold contacts facing downwards) into its holder, making
sure that the cut-out corner is aligned correctly. Press the battery down again
until it clicks into place.
2. Charge the battery:
Before using your handset for the first time, it's important to charge the
battery for at least 4 hours.
3. Turn it on:
Open the handset, then press and hold the key. (You do the same to
turn it off again.)
In just a few minutes this Quick Start Guide will show you how to use many
of the main features of your new SGH-E710.
We'll show you how easy it is to take pictures and video clips with its built-in
camera, send photos in MMS messages, and connect to Vodafone live! and
the mobile internet. You'll also be able to download new polyphonic
ringtones, games and background wallpapers – as well as send a picture as
an actual postcard...
For a full explanation of all your handset's functions and applications, please
read the User Manual.
