Samsung A790 - Manual (Page 19)

Introduction 11
Charge the battery
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable standard Li-Ion
battery. Only use Samsung-approved charging devices and
batteries. Samsung accessories are designed to maximize
battery life. Using other accessories may invalidate your
warranty and may cause damage.
Use the desktop charger
The desktop charger operates from a 120/220 VAC wall
outlet. It also acts as a cradle to hold your phone in a
convenient, easy-to-use position while charging.
1. Plug the AC plug from the desktop charger into a
standard 120 VAC or 220 VAC wall outlet.
2. Slide your phone, bottom end first, into the desktop
charger. Your phone begins charging and the battery
image appears in the display.
You can use your phone while charging, however, the battery
charges faster if the phone is turned off.
Battery indicator
The battery indicator ( ) in the upper-right corner of the
display indicates battery power level. Three bars indicate a
full charge, while an empty icon (
) indicates an almost
empty battery. Two to three minutes before the battery
becomes too low to operate, a blinking empty battery icon
(
) appears and a tone sounds. If you continue to operate
the phone without charging, it shuts down.
