Charging a Battery
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. The
Travel Adapter that is used to charge the battery, is included with
your phone. Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers.
Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode, browser
use, and other variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby
times.
Although you can use the phone while the battery is charging,
doing so requires additional charging time.
Note: You must fully charge the battery before using your phone for the first
time. A discharged battery recharges fully in approximately 4 hours.
Using the Travel Adapter
1. With the battery installed, lift and rotate the plastic Power/
Accessory Interface connector cover at the bottom left side
of the phone.
Important!: Verify that the handset battery is installed prior to connection. If
the battery is not properly installed and the wall charger is
connected, the handset may power off and on continuously,
preventing proper operation.
2. Plug the data cable into the base piece provided and into
the Power/Accessory Interface connector on your phone.
3. Plug the base piece into a standard AC wall outlet.
