Charge with the travel adapter
Open the cover to the multifunction jack on the top of
1
the device.
Plug the small end of the travel adapter into the
2
multifunction jack.
Charge the battery
Before using the device for the rst time, you must charge
the battery.
You can charge the device with the provided travel adapter
or by connecting the device 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 device.
When your battery is low, the device 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
device will automatically power o. Recharge your
battery to continue using your device.

Assembling
14
You can use the device while it is charging, but it•
may take longer to fully charge the battery.
While the device is charging, the touch screen may
•
not function due to an unstable power supply. If
this happens, unplug the travel adapter from the
device.
While charging, the device may heat up. This
•
is normal and should not aect your device’s
lifespan or performance.
If your device is not charging properly, bring your
•
device and the charger to a Samsung Service
Centre.
Improperly connecting the travel adapter can cause
serious damage to the device. Any damage caused
by misuse is not covered by the warranty.
Plug the large end of the travel adapter into a power
3
outlet.

Assembling 15

Charge with the PC data cable
Before charging, ensure that your PC is turned on.
Open the cover to the multifunction jack on the top of
1
the device.
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
device and then from the PC.
When the battery is fully charged (the battery icon is
4
no longer moving), unplug the travel adapter from the
device and then from the power outlet.
Do not remove the battery before removing the•
travel adapter. Doing this may cause damage to
the device.
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 4 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 1500 mAh.
To save energy, unplug the travel adapter when not
in use. The travel adapter does not have a power
switch, so you must unplug the travel adapter from
the outlet to interrupt the power supply. The travel
adapter should remain close to the socket when
in use.

type).
Samsung uses approved industry standards for
memory cards, but some brands may not be fully
compatible with your device. Using an incompatible
memory card may damage your device or the
memory card and can corrupt data stored on the
card.
Your device supports only the FAT le structure for•
memory cards. If you insert a card formatted with
a dierent le structure, your device will ask you to
reformat the memory card.
