Charging a Battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion
battery. A travel adapter and a battery charger are
provided with your phone for charging battery. Use
only approved batteries and chargers. Ask your
local SAMSUNG dealer for further details.
Note: You need to fully charge the battery before
using your phone for the first time. A
discharged battery is fully recharged in
approximately 200 minutes.

The travel adapter allows you to use the phone
while the battery is charging, but this will cause the
phone to charge more slowly.
