5. Press the battery down until it clicks into place. Make sure
that the battery is properly installed before switching the
power on.

Charging the 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.
The travel adapter allows you to use the phone while the
battery is charging, but this causes the phone to charge more
slowly.
Note: You must fully charge the battery before using your phone for
the first time. A discharged battery is fully recharged in
approximately 200 minutes.
1. With the battery in position on 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.
3. When charging is finished, unplug the adapter from the
power outlet and disconnect it from the phone by pressing
the buttons on both sides of the connector and pulling the
connector out.
Note: You must unplug the adapter before removing the battery from
the phone during charging; otherwise, the phone could be
damaged.
Low Battery Indicator
When the battery is weak and only a few minutes of talk time
remain, a warning tone sounds and a message repeats at
regular intervals on the display. If this happens, your phone
turns off the backlight to conserve the remaining battery
power.
When the battery level becomes too low, the phone
automatically turns off.
