battery. It allows you to recharge your battery before it is
fully drained. The battery provides up to 5 hours of
continuous digital talk time.
At 3% of charge capacity, there are only a few minutes
of talk time left, the device sounds an audible alert,
displays a critical charge icon ( ), and then turns off.
Installing the Battery
䊳 See “Setting Up Your Device” on page 2.
Removing the Battery
1. Make sure the power is off so that you don’t lose
any stored numbers or messages.
2. Locate the cover release latch (1). Slip your
fingernail in the slot and lift up on the cover as
illustrated in the diagram (2 & 3).
WARNING: Use only Samsung-approved batteries and
chargers with your device. The failure to use a
Samsung-approved battery and charger may
increase the risk that your device will overheat,
catch fire or explode, resulting in serious bodily
injury, death or property damage.
Tip: Watch your device’s battery level indicator and charge the
battery before it runs out of power.
Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate
mode, browser use and other variables may reduce the
battery’s talk and standby times.
