Setting Up Your Phone
Install the battery, then charge it, to begin using 
your phone. 
Battery
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable, 
standard Li-Ion battery. A Wall/USB Charger 
(Charging Head and USB cable) is included with 
the phone, for charging the battery. 
The battery comes partially charged. You must 
fully charge the battery before using your phone 
for the first time. After the first charge, you can 
use the phone while charging. 
Warning! Use only 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. 
Battery Indicator
The battery icon
in the Status Bar shows
battery power level. When battery power is very 
low, the battery icon flashes and a tone plays. If 
you continue using the phone without charging, 
the phone will power off. 
Tip: Task Manager provides helpful information
about extending battery life. For more 
information, see “Task Manager” on page 10.
