Charging the Battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. Use the
travel adapter to charge the battery, and use only Samsung
approved batteries and chargers.

Note: You must fully charge the battery before using your phone for the first

time. A fully discharged battery requires up to 4 hours of charge time.

Caution!: For connection to an electrical supply not located in the U.S., you

must use an adaptor of the proper configuration for the power
outlet. Use of the wrong adaptor could damage your phone and
void your warranty.

1.

Open the side slot and plug the connector of the travel

adapter jack into the jack on the side of the phone.

Note: The previous illustration is the correct and incorrect method for

connecting the charger. If the incorrect method is attempted, damage
to the accessory port will occur therefore voiding the phone’s warranty.

2.

Plug the adaptor into a standard AC wall outlet.

3.

When the phone is completely charged (

), unplug the

adapter from the power outlet.

4.

Remove the adapter from the phone by gently pulling the

connector out and replace the plastic cover back over the

open jack.

Note: During charging, you must unplug the adapter before removing the

battery from the phone to avoid damage.

Low Battery Indicator

When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time
remain, a warning tone sounds, the “Low Battery” message
repeats at regular intervals on the display, and the empty battery
icon (

) blinks. The backlight turns off to conserve the

remaining battery power.

Note: If your phone is in Silent Mode, the Low Battery Indicator defaults to

Vibration (see See “Sound Profile” on page 125.). If you change the
alert from Vibration to Mute, you will see a flashing message that
indicates a low battery.
