subscription details, such as your PIN, any optional
services available, and many others.

Activating Your Phone
Charging a Battery
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery.
A travel adapter comes with your phone for charging the
battery. Use only approved batteries and chargers. Ask
your local Samsung dealer for further details.
You can use the phone while the battery is charging, but
doing so will require additional charging time.
Section 1
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 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 the U.S., 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.

time remain, a warning tone sounds and the “Battery
low” message repeats at regular intervals on the display.

conserve the remaining battery power.
When the battery level becomes too low, the phone
automatically turns off.
Switching the Phone On or Off

Changing the Text Input Mode
When using your phone, you will often need to enter text,
such as when storing a name in your Phonebook, creating
your personal greeting or scheduling events on your
calendar. You can enter alphanumeric characters by using
your phone’s keypad.
Your phone has the following text input modes:
• ABC mode: this mode allows you to enter letters by pressing
Section 5
the key labeled with the letter you want. How many times you
press the key determines which letter or number appears.
• T9 mode: this mode allows you to enter words with only one
keystroke per letter. Each key on the keypad has more than one
letter; for example, pressing
can enter J, K, or L. However,
the T9 mode automatically compares the series of keystrokes
you make with an internal linguistic dictionary to determine the
most likely word, thus requiring far fewer keystrokes than the
traditional ABC mode.
• Number mode: this mode allows you to enter numbers.
• Symbol mode: this mode allows you to enter symbols, such as
punctuation marks.
When you are in a field that allows characters to be
entered, you will notice the text input mode indicator on
the display.
Example: Writing a text message.
