plug-in SIM card loaded with your subscription details, such as your
PIN, any optional services, and other information.

bending, so be careful when handling, inserting, or removing the card. Keep all SIM
cards out of the reach of small children.
If necessary, switch off the phone by holding down the key until
the power-off image displays.

approved batteries and chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for
further details.

13
Getting Started
You can use the phone while the battery is charging, but this causes
the phone to charge more slowly.
Note: You must fully charge the battery before using your phone for the first time. A
discharged battery recharges fully in approximately 2 hours.
1. With the battery in position in the phone, plug the connector of
the travel adapter into the jack at the bottom of the phone.
2. Plug the adapter into a standard AC wall outlet.
Note: For connection to an electrical supply not located in Canada or the U.S.A, you must
use an adaptor of the proper configuration for the power outlet. Use of the wrong adapter
could damage your phone and void your warranty.
Low Battery Indicator
When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time remain,
a warning tone sounds and a message repeats at regular intervals on
the display. If this happens, the display dims to conserve the
remaining battery power.
When the battery level becomes too low, the phone automatically
turns off.
Check the battery indicator icon periodically and recharge as needed
to make sure the phone has enough battery power when needed.

the factory. For further details, see “Change password” on
page 134.
4. If the phone asks for a PIN, enter the PIN and press the OK soft
key. For further details, see “PIN Check” on page 133.
The phone searches for your network and, after finding it, the idle
screen appears on the display. You can now make or receive a call.

Automatic
and is dependent on the
setting in the SIM as determined by your service provider. To change
the language, use the Language menu (
Menu 9.2.1
). For further
details, see “Language” on page 120.
