Getting started

Installing the SIM card

When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are

provided with a plug-in SIM card loaded with your

subscription details, such as your PIN, any optional

services available, and so on.

Important!

The plug-in SIM card and its contacts

can be easily damaged by scratches or

bending, so be careful when handling,

inserting, or removing the card.

Keep all SIM cards out of the reach of

small children.

1. If necessary, switch off the phone by holding

down the key until the power-off image

displays.

2. Remove the battery. To do so:

➀

Press the catch above the battery and hold it

in that position.

➁

Slide the battery and lift it away, as shown.

➀

➁

Getting started

18

3. Slide the SIM card into the SIM card socket, as

shown, so that the card locks into position.

Make sure the gold coloured contacts of the card

face into the phone.

Note

: When you need to remove the SIM card,

slide it upwards, as shown, and take it out

of the socket.

4. Place the battery, taking care to match the tabs

on the battery with the grooves on the phone.

Getting started

19

5. Slide the battery towards the top of the phone

until it clicks into place. Make sure that the

battery is properly installed before switching the

power on.

Charging the battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion

battery. A travel charger comes with your phone for

charging the battery. Use only approved batteries

and chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for

further details.

The travel charger allows you to 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

200 minutes.

1. With the battery in position on the phone, plug

the connector of the travel charger into the jack

at the bottom of the phone.

Getting started

20

2. Plug the charger into a standard AC wall outlet.

3. When charging is finished, unplug the charger

from the power outlet and disconnect it from the

phone by pressing the buttons on both sides of

the connector and pulling out the connector.

Note

: You must unplug the charger before removing

the battery from the phone during charging;

otherwise, the phone could be damaged.

Low battery indicator

When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of

talk time remain, a warning tone sounds and the

“Warning Low Battery” message repeats at regular

intervals on the display. When this happens, your

phone turns off the backlight to conserve the

remaining battery power.

If the battery level becomes too low, the phone

automatically turns off.
