Charge The Battery - Samsung Galaxy S5 User Manual

Charge the Battery

Your device is powered by a rechargeable, standard
Li-Ion battery. A charger (charging head and USB
cable) is included with the device for charging the
battery from any standard outlet.
The battery comes partially charged. A fully
discharged battery requires up to four hours of
charge time. You can use the device while charging.
Note: It is recommended you fully charge the battery
before using your device for the first time.
Caution: 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.
1. Locate the USB charger/Accessory port.
2. Carefully remove the cover and insert the USB
3.0 cable or USB 2.0 cable into the device's
USB charger/Accessory port.

Note: If you are using the older style USB 2.0 cable
to charge your battery, plug the flat end of the cable
into the smaller port in the device's USB charger/
Accessory port.
3. Connect the USB cable to the charging head,
and then plug the charging head into a standard
outlet.
4. When charging is complete, unplug the charging
head from the outlet and remove the USB cable
from the device.
Caution: Failure to unplug the wall charger before you
remove the battery, can cause damage to the device.
When to Charge the Battery
When the battery is low and only a few minutes of
operation remain, the battery icon blinks and the
device sounds a warning tone at regular intervals.
In this condition, your device conserves its
remaining battery power by dimming the screen.
When the battery level becomes too low, the device
automatically turns off.
► For a quick check of your battery level, view the
battery charge indicator located in the Status
bar of your device's display. A solid color
indicates a full charge.
You can also choose to display a percentage
value. Viewing a percentage value can provide
a better idea of the remaining charge on the
battery. For more information, see Battery.
