Setting Up Your Device
Step 1. Install the SIM Card
The Samsung Galaxy S 6 Edge has a
smaller, slimmer SIM card. Please update
your SIM card at T-Mobile.com/SIM. Your
old SIM card will not work in this device.
We recommend that you back up any
contacts you saved to the SIM card, using
Gmail or other options. For step by step
instructions please visit
T-Mobile.com/SIM/Support.

Step 2. Charging the Device
Before turning on your phone, charge it fully.
Your phone comes with an Adaptive Fast
Charging charger and a USB cable. Plug
the smaller end of the cable into the USB
charger port on your phone and the other
end into the charger. Then plug the charger
into an electrical outlet to charge the phone.
Warning! Please use only an approved
charging accessory to charge
your device. Improper handling of
the charging port, as well as the
use of an incompatible charger,
may cause damage to your device
and void the warranty.
