Charging the Battery Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. The Travel Charger, which is used to charge the battery, is included with your phone. Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers. Note: The battery comes partially charged. You must fully charge the battery before using your phone for the first time. A fully discharged battery requires up to 4 hours of charge time. After the first charge, you can use the phone while charging. Using the Travel Charger 1. With the battery installed, locate the Power/Accessory Interface connector at the bottom 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 flat end of the Travel Charger into the phone's interface connector jack and the other end into a standard AC wall outlet. Incorrect Note: This illustration displays both the correct and incorrect orientation for connecting the charger. If the charger is incorrectly connected, damage to the accessory port will occur therefore voiding the phone's warranty. 8
