Assembling
Unpack
Check your product box for the following items:
• Device
• Battery
• Quick start guide
• The items supplied with your device may vary
depending on the software and accessories
available in your region or offered by your service
provider.
• You can obtain additional accessories from your
local Samsung dealer.
• The supplied accessories perform best for your
device.
• Accessories other than the supplied ones may not
be compatible with your device.

illegal software may cause damage or malfunctions
that are not covered by your manufacturer's
warranty.

] and select
Remove the back cover.
Be careful not to damage your fingernails when you

12 Assembling
Charge the battery
Before using the device for the first time, you must charge
the battery.
›› Charge with a travel adapter
Plug the small end of the travel adapter into the
multifunction jack.
You can charge the device with a travel adapter or by
connecting the device to a PC with a USB cable.
Use only Samsung-approved chargers and cables.
Unauthorised chargers or cables can cause batteries
to explode or damage your device.
• When your battery is low, the device will emit a
warning tone and display a low battery message.
The battery icon will also be empty. If the
battery level becomes too low, the device will
automatically power off. Recharge your battery to
continue using your device.
• If the battery is completely discharged, you cannot
turn on the device, even with the travel adapter
connected. Allow a depleted battery to charge for
a few minutes before you try to turn on the device.
Connecting the travel adapter improperly may
cause serious damage to the device. Any damage
caused by misuse is not covered by the warranty.
Assembling 13
2
Plug the large end of the travel adapter into a power
outlet.
• You can use the device while it is charging, but it
may take longer to fully charge the battery.
• While the device is charging, the touch screen may
not function due to an unstable power supply. If
this happens, unplug the travel adapter from the
device.
• While charging, the device may heat up. This
is normal and should not affect your device’s
lifespan or performance.
• If your device is not charging properly, bring your
device and the charger to a Samsung Service
Centre.
14 Assembling
When the battery is fully charged (the battery icon is
no longer moving), unplug the travel adapter from the
device and then from the power outlet.
Do not remove the battery before removing the
travel adapter. Doing this may cause damage to the
device.
To save energy, unplug the travel adapter when not
in use. The travel adapter does not have a power
switch, so you must unplug the travel adapter from
the outlet to interrupt the power supply. The travel
adapter should remain close to the socket when
in use.
›› Charge with a USB cable
Before charging, ensure that your PC is turned on.
Plug one end (micro-USB) of the USB cable into the
multifunction jack.
Plug the other end of the USB cable into a USB port
on a PC.
Depending on the type of USB cable you are using,
it may take some time before charging begins.
When the battery is fully charged (the battery icon is
no longer moving), unplug the USB cable from the
device and then from the PC.
Insert a memory card (optional)
To store additional multimedia files, you must insert
a memory card. Your device accepts microSD™ or
microSDHC™ memory cards with maximum capacities
of 32 GB (depending on memory card manufacturer and
type).
Samsung uses approved industry standards for
memory cards, but some brands may not be fully
compatible with your device. Using an incompatible
memory card may damage your device or the
memory card and can corrupt data stored on the
card.
Assembling 15
• Your device supports only the FAT file structure for
memory cards. If you insert a card formatted with
a different file structure, your device will ask you to
reformat the memory card.

the file directory of the memory card will appear
in the /sdcard/external_sd folder.

Error messages appear when launching the
camera
Error messages appear when launching the FM
radio
Your Samsung mobile device must have sufficient
available memory and battery power to operate the
camera application. If you receive error messages when
launching the camera, try the following:
The FM radio application on your Samsung mobile device
uses the headset cable as an antenna. Without a headset
connected, the FM radio will be unable to receive radio
stations. To use the FM radio, first ensure that the headset
is properly connected. Next, scan for and save the available
radio stations.
• Charge the battery or replace it with a battery that is fully
charged.
• Free some memory by transferring files to a PC or
deleting files from your device.
• Restart the device. If you are still having trouble with
the camera application after trying these tips, contact a
Samsung Service Centre.
If you still cannot use the FM radio after performing these
steps, try accessing your desired station with another radio
receiver. If you can hear the station with another receiver,
your device may require service. Contact a Samsung
Service Centre.
Troubleshooting 105
Error messages appear when opening music
files

Safety precautions 113
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification
information
Your device conforms to European Union (EU) standards that limit
human exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy emitted by radio and
telecommunications equipment. These standards prevent the sale of
mobile devices that exceed a maximum exposure level (known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 W/kg.
During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was
0.xxx W/kg. In normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be much lower, as
the device has been designed to emit only the RF energy necessary to
transmit a signal to the nearest base station. By automatically emitting
lower levels when possible, your device reduces your overall exposure
to RF energy.
The Declaration of Conformity statement at the back of this manual
demonstrates your device’s compliance with the European Radio &
Terminal Telecommunications Equipment (R&TTE) directive. For more
information about the SAR and related EU standards, visit the Samsung
website.
