Charge the battery  
Before using the device for the first time, you must charge the  
battery.  
You can charge the device with a travel adapter or by  
connecting the device to a PC with a USB cable.  
Use only Samsung-approved chargers and cables.  
Unauthorised chargers or cables can cause batteries to  
explode or damage your device.

When your battery is low, the device will emit a  
warning tone and display a low battery message. The  
battery icon will also be empty. If the battery level  
becomes too low, the device will automatically power  
off. Recharge your battery to continue using your  
device.  
If the battery is completely discharged, you cannot  
turn on the device, even with the travel adapter  
connected. Allow a depleted battery to charge for a  
few minutes before you try to turn on the device.  
Charge with a travel adapter  
Plug the small end of the travel adapter into the  
multifunction jack.

You can use the device while it is charging, but it may  
take longer to fully charge the battery.  
While the device is charging, the touch screen may  
not function due to an unstable power supply. If this  
happens, unplug the travel adapter from the device.  
While charging, the device may heat up. This is  
normal and should not affect your device’s lifespan or  
performance.  
If your device is not charging properly, bring your  
device and the charger to a Samsung Service Centre.  
When the battery is fully charged, first unplug the travel  
adapter from the device and then from the power outlet.

adapter. Doing this may cause damage to the device.  
To save energy, unplug the travel adapter when not in

to interrupt the power supply. The travel adapter should  
remain close to the socket when in use.

Insert a memory card (optional)  
To store additional multimedia files, you must insert  
a memory card. Your device accepts microSD or  
microSDHC memory cards with maximum capacities of  
32 GB (depending on memory card manufacturer and type).  
Samsung uses approved industry standards for memory  
cards, but some brands may not be fully compatible  
with your device. Using an incompatible memory card  
may damage your device or the memory card and can  
corrupt data stored on the card.  
Your device supports only the FAT file structure for  
memory cards. If you insert a card formatted with  
a different file structure, your device will ask you to  
reformat the memory card.  
Frequent writing and erasing of data will shorten the  
lifespan of memory cards.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification  
information  
Your device conforms to European Union (EU) standards that limit  
human exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy emitted by radio and  
telecommunications equipment. These standards prevent the sale of mobile  
devices that exceed a maximum exposure level (known as the Specific  
Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 W/kg.  
During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was 0.509 W/kg. In  
normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be much lower, as the device has been  
designed to emit only the RF energy necessary to transmit a signal to the  
nearest base station. By automatically emitting lower levels when possible,  
your device reduces your overall exposure to RF energy.  
The Declaration of Conformity statement at the back of this manual  
demonstrates your device’s compliance with the European Radio & Terminal  
Telecommunications Equipment (R&TTE) directive. For more information about  
the SAR and related EU standards, visit the Samsung website.
