Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger  
Battery Capacity  
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery. It allows  
you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. The battery  
provides approximately 3 hours of continuous digital talk time (1  
hours in analog) or approximately 168 hours of continuous digital  
standby time (18 hours in analog).  
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon blinks.  
When there are approximately two minutes of talk time left, the  
phone sounds an audible alert and then powers down.  
Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate  
mode,playing games, using a video as a screen saver and browser use  
affect the battery’s talk and standby times.  
Tip: Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the  
battery before it runs out of power.  
Getting Started 10  
Installing the Battery  
To install the LiIon battery:  
1. Insert the battery into the opening on the back of the phone  
at an angle, making sure the plastic tab on the bottom of the  
battery is inserted into the matching slot in the phone.  
2. Press down until the battery snaps into place.  
Removing the Battery  
To remove your battery:  
1. Make sure the power is off so that you don’t lose any stored  
numbers or messages.  
2. Push the battery release latch up completely.  
3. Using the side tabs, pull the top of the battery away from the  
phone and remove.  
11 Getting Started  
Charging the Battery  
Your phone’s LiIon battery is rechargeable and should be charged as  
soon as possible so you can begin using your phone.  
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your battery  
level becomes too low, your phone automatically turns off and you  
will lose all the information you were just working on. For a quick  
check of your phone’s battery level, glance at the battery charge  
indicator located in the upper-right corner of your phone’s display  
screen. If the battery charge is getting too low, the battery icon  
(
) blinks and the phone sounds a warning tone.  
Always use a Samsung-approved desktop charger, travel adapter, or  
vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.  
Warning! Using the wrong battery charger could cause damage to your  
phone and void the warranty.  
Getting Started 12  
Using the Desktop Charger  
To use the desktop charger provided with your phone:  
Plug the outlet from the desktop charger in the wall. Place  
your phone into the desktop charger, making sure that it fits  
securely. If properly connected, you should see the charging  
lights.  
A red light on the desktop charger and an animated battery  
icon on the phone indicates that the battery is charging.  
A green light on the desktop charger indicates that the  
battery is at least 90 percent charged.  
A yellow light on the desktop charger indicates that there is  
a problem charging the phone.  
It takes approximately 4 hours to fully recharge a completely  
rundown standard battery. With the Samsung approved LiIon battery,  
you can recharge the battery before it becomes completely run down.  
When the flip is open, an animated battery icon is displayed on the  
screen. When the battery is completely charged, a green light is  
displayed continuously on the destop charger.

TTY Use With Handset  
A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone), is a telecom-  
munications device that allows people who are deaf or hard of  
hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to  
communicate by telephone.  
Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices. Please check with  
the manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure that it supports digital  
wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY device will connect via a  
special cable that plugs into your phone's headset jack. If this cable

IMPORTANT 911 Emergency Calling: We recommend that TTY users  
make emergency calls by other means, including Telecommunications  
Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and land line communications.  
Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted when received by public  
safety answering points (PSAPs) rendering some communications  
unintelligible. The problem encountered appears related to TTY  
equipment or software used by PSAPs. This matter has been brought to  
the attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry and PSAP community  
are currently working to resolve this.

Understanding Roaming  
Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen  
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the  
network. The following chart indicates what you’ll see depending on  
where you’re using your phone.  
Roaming Indicator  
Analog Indicator  
Network  
Other Digital Networks  
Note: You will pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.  
Roaming on Other Digital Networks  
When you’re roaming, your call quality and security will be similar to  
the quality you receive when making calls on your home network. You  
may not be able to access certain features, such as web services.  
Roaming on Analog Networks  
When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a similar  
quality provided by other analog carriers today. Although some  
features, such as Mobile Browser and Voice Command, will be  
unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access voicemail.  
You will experience a few differences:  
You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out,  
and dropped calls.  
Roaming 46  
Some features which are standard on the network, such as call  
waiting, web browser, and direct international dialing, are  
unavailable.  
Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are  
roaming, you will not receive notification until you return to the  
network. While roaming, you can periodically check your  
voicemail for new messages by dialing 1+area code+your  
Phone Number. Press  
when you hear your greeting and  
enter your passcode at the prompt.  
There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and  
cloning) that exist with conventional analog services today.  
Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your  
phone for analog roaming.  
Note: If you’re on a call when you leave the network and enter an area  
where roaming is available, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in  
an area where you think service is available, turn your phone Off and On  
again to reconnect to the network.

You’ll find the Call History feature very helpful. It is a list of the last 20  
phone numbers (or Phone Book entries) for calls you placed,

easy. It is continually updated as new numbers are added to the  
beginning of the list and the oldest entries are removed from the  
bottom of the list.  
Each entry contains the phone number (if it is available) and Phone  
Book entry name (if the phone number is in your Phone Book).  
Duplicate calls (same number and type of call) may only appear once  
on the list.

Voice recognition allows you to say commands to perform common  
functions supported by your phone. There is no voice training  
required to use the voice recognition feature. You simply say the pre-  
designated command displayed on your screen in a normal tone of  
voice to perform the desired function.  
To activate voice recognition:

Using Digit Dial  
Digit Dial allows you to dial any valid 7, 10 or 11 digit North American  
phone number by speaking the number naturally, without pausing  
between the digits.  
Tips for using Digit Dial:  
Digit Dial works best in quieter environments.  
When saying a number, speak at a normal speed and say each  
digit clearly. There is no need to pause between digits.  
The phone recognizes the digits one, two, three, four, five, six,  
seven, eight, nine, zero, and oh. The phone does not recognize  
numbers such as "one eight hundred" for "1-800." Instead, say  
"one-eight-zero-zero."  
The phone recognizes only valid 7, 10 or 11 digit North  
American phone numbers.  
If your phone does not usually recognize you correctly when  
you are using Digit Dial, try adapting Digit Dial to your voice,  
which can significantly improve accuracy for some speakers.  
(See "Adapting Digit Dial" on page 77 for details.)  
To place a call using Digit Dial:  
1. Activate voice recognition by pressing and holding  
.
(The phone prompts you for a command.)  
2. Say Digit Dial. (The phone prompts you to say the number.)  
3. Say a valid 7, 10 or 11 digit North American phone number  
naturally and clearly.  
4. If the phone asks you, "Did You Say," followed by the correct  
number, say "Yes." (You can also select the correct number  
from those displayed on the screen by pressing  
on the  
correct number. The phone will then dial the number.)  
75 Using Voice Services  
5. If the phone asks you, "Did You Say," followed by an  
incorrect number, say No. (If there are other alternatives,  
the phone will prompt you with the next one. You can also  
press the navigation key up or down to select the correct  
number from the Choice List, and then press  
to dial.)  
Note: In some cases, the phone might ask you to repeat a number. Make  
sure that the number is a valid 7 or 10 digit North American phone  
number, and then say the number again. If the number isn't valid, or if the  
phone still doesn't understand the number on the second try, it will not  
place a call.  
Enabling/Disabling Digit Dial Choice Lists  
You can customize whether the Digit Dial feature displays the list of  
top voice recognition choices or automatically dials the first number,  
without displaying a choice list.  
To enable or disable choice lists for Digit Dial:  
1. Press

Using Voice Services 76  
Adapting Digit Dial  
Digit Dialing is speaker independent, which means that no training or  
adaptation is required. Some users with heavy accents or unusual  
voice characteristics may find difficulty in achieving high accuracy  
with speaker independent Digit Dialing, so the Adapt Digits feature  
allows users to dramatically improve the digit accuracy through  
adaptation. Users who get acceptable digit recognition accuracy will  
find no additional benefit to performing the Adapt Digit adaptation.  
After you adapt Digit Dial, your phone will be customized to your  
voice. Other people will not be able to use Digit Dial on your phone  
unless they reset the phone to factory defaults.  
: ONLY adapt Digit Dial if the system is frequently mis-  
Note  
recognizing your speech. You can always restore the system to its  
original factory setting.  
Adaptation involves recording several digit sequences to teach the  
system your voice. The adaptation process takes about 3 minutes.  
Tips for adapting Digit Dial:  
Adapt digits in a quiet place.  
Make sure you wait for the beep before starting to speak.  
Speak clearly, but say each digit sequence naturally.  
If you make a mistake while recording a sequence of digits, or  
if there is an unexpected noise that spoils the recording, you  
can say or select No when the prompt asks, “Did the recording  
sound OK?” You will then be prompted to re-record the  
sequence.  
To adapt Digit Dial to your voice:  
1. Press  
for Settings.  
77 Using Voice Services  
2. Press  
for Voice Dial.  
3. Press  
for Adapt Digits. (The phone displays the first  
digit sequence.)  
4. When you are ready to start recording, press  
. (The  
phone prompts you to say the first sequence of digits.)  
5. Wait for the beep, and then repeat the digits using a normal  
tone of voice. (The phone plays back your recording and  
asks you if the recording sounds "OK.")  
If the recording sounds OK (no mistakes and no  
background noises), say Yes.  
If you need to re-record the digits to fix any problems, say  
No. (The phone then prompts you to say the digits again.)  
6. Wait for the beep, and then record the digits again. (Repeat  
this step until you are satisfied with the recording.)  
7. After confirming that the recording sounds OK, repeat the  
recording process with the next set of digits. (After six sets  
of digits, the phone will ask you whether you want to do  
more adaptation. Answer Yes.)  
8. Repeat steps 4-7 for another six sets of digits. (After the  
sixth set of digits, you will be half-way through the session  
and the phone will ask “More Adapatation?”)  
9. Select OK to continue for six more sets of digits, or press  
for partial adaptation. When you are finished with a full  
session, you will reach a screen that reads, “Adaptation  
Complete.”  
Using Voice Services 78  
Note: It is recommended that you perform the complete adaptation of  
Digit Dial at least once to achieve the maximum benefit of this feature. If a  
partial adaptation is performed, you can always return later and resume  
the process from the half way point.

Navigating the Wireless Web  
Navigating through menus and Web sites during a web session is  
easy once you've learned a few basics. Here are some tips for getting  
around:  
Softkeys  
When browsing the Web, the bottom line of your phone's display  
contains one or more softkeys. These keys are shortcut controls for  
navigating around the Web, and they correspond to the softkey

Links, which appear as underlined text, allow you to jump to different  
Web pages, select special functions, or even place phone calls.  
Select links by highlighting the link and then selecting the  
appropriate softkey.  
Tip: The tenth item in a numbered list may be selected by pressing  
the  
key on your phone’s keypad, even though the number 0 doesn’t  
appear on the screen.

Safety  
Getting the Most Out of Your Reception  
Keeping Tabs on Signal Strength  
The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the signal  
strength in your area. Your phone informs you of the current signal  
strength by displaying a number of bars next to the signal strength  
icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger the signal. If you’re  
inside a building, being near a window may give you better reception.  
Understanding the Power Save Feature  
If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching, a  
Power Save feature is automatically activated. If your phone is active,  
it periodically rechecks service availability or you can check it yourself  
by pressing any key. Anytime the Power Save feature is activated, a  
message displays on the screen. When a signal is found, your phone  
returns to standby mode.  
Understanding How Your Phone Operates  
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s  
turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) signals.  
When you use your phone, the system handling your call controls the  
power level. This power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in  
digital mode.  
Knowing Radio Frequency Safety  
The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP standards  
described below. In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and  
Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the American National Standards  
Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI’s 1982 standard for safety  
levels with respect to human exposure to RF signals. More than 120  
scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government  
health agencies and industries developed this updated standard after  
127 Safety  
reviewing the available body of research. In 1993, the Federal  
Communications Commission (FCC) adopted this updated standard  
in a regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard  
consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines  
published by the National Council of Radiation Protection and  
Measurements (NCRP).  
Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak Performance  
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly  
and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.  
Hold the phone with the antenna raised, fully-extended, and  
over your shoulder.  
Try not to hold, bend, or twist the phone’s antenna.  
Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged.  
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.  
Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid  
spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power  
off and remove the battery. If it’s inoperable, return it to a dealer  
store or call Customer Support for service.  
Note: For the best care of your phone, only BMC authorized personnel  
should service your phone and accessories. Faulty service may void  
the warranty.  
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to  
Your Phone  
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS OUTLINED MAY LEAD TO  
SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND POSSIBLE PROPERTY DAMAGE  
Safety 128  
Using Your Phone While Driving  
Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without  
a hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as  
to specific restrictions. Remember that safety always comes first.  
When using your phone in the car:  
Get to know your phone and its features, such as speed dial  
and re-dial.  
When available, use a hands-free device.  
Position your phone within easy reach.  
Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if  
necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous  
weather conditions.  
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.  
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls  
when stationary or before pulling into traffic.  
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that  
may divert your attention from the road.  
Dial 911 to report serious emergencies. It’s free from your  
wireless phone.  
Use your phone to help others in emergencies.  
Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless  
number when necessary.  
Following Safety Guidelines  
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow  
any special regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas  
where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.  
129 Safety  
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices  
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency  
(RF) signals. However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect  
inadequately shielded electronic equipment.  
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded  
electronic operating systems and/or entertainment systems in motor  
vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their representative to  
determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF  
signals. Also check with the manufacturer regarding any equipment  
that has been added to your vehicle.  
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as  
pacemakers and hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately  
shielded from external RF signals.  
Note: Always turn off the phone in health care facilities and request  
permission before using the phone near medical equipment.  
Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying  
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible  
interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation  
Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have permission  
from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the  
ground. To prevent any risk of interference,  
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in the  
air.  
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas  
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn off your phone  
when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating that  
two-way radios should be turned off. Construction crews often use  
remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.  
Safety 130  
Turn off your phone when you’re in any area that has a  
potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your  
phone or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks  
could cause an explosion or a fire resulting in bodily  
injury or even death. These areas are often, but not  
always, clearly marked. They include:  
Fueling areas such as gas stations.  
Below deck on boats.  
Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.  
Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as  
grain, just or metal powders.  
Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn  
off your vehicle’s engine.  
Note: Never transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the  
compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.  
Restricting Children’s Access to your Phone  
Your phone is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with it  
because they could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone  
or make calls that increase your phone bill.  
Caring for the Battery  
Protecting Your Battery  
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your  
battery’s performance.  
Use only Samsung approved batteries and desktop chargers.  
These chargers are designed to maximize battery life. Using  
131 Safety  
other batteries or chargers voids your warranty and may cause  
damage.  
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in  
temperatures that range from 32º F to 113º F (0º C to 45º C).  
Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high  
humidity areas, such as the bathroom.  
Never dispose of the battery by incineration.  
Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.  
Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.  
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a  
long period of time.  
It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides  
acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of  
times before it needs replacing.  
Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long  
periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:  
Less than one month:  
4º F to 140º F (-20º C to 60º C)

Acknowledging Special Precautions and  
Industry Canada Notice  
Only use approved batteries, antennas, and chargers. The use of any  
unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and will invalidate the  
phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the  
phone.  
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of  
hardware and can be broken. Use common-sense guidelines to avoid  
dropping, hitting, bending or sitting on it.  
Cautions  
Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly approved  
in this document could void your warranty for this equipment, and  
void your authority to operate this equipment. Only use approved  
batteries, antennas and chargers. The use of any unauthorized  
accessories may be dangerous and void the phone warranty if said  
accessories cause damage or a defect to the phone.  
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of  
equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending or  
sitting on it.  
Information to User  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits  
of a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against  
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment  
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not  
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause  
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no  
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation; if  
133 Safety  
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television  
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and  
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or  
more of the following measures:  
Reorient / relocate the receiving antenna.  
Increase the separation between the equipment and  
receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit difference  
from that to which the receiver is connected.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.  
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones  
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF  
energy absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.  
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing,  
measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how much  
RF the phone emits. All phone models are tested at their highest  
value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of  
a phone can be substantially less than the level reported to the FCC.  
This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a  
base station antenna, phone design and other factors. What is  
important to remember is that each phone meets strict federal  
guidelines. Variations in SARs do not represent a variation in safety.  
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a  
substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR  
values between different model phones do not mean variations in  
safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are  
considered safe for use by the public.  
The highest reported SAR values of the SPH-a680 are:  
AMPS mode (Part 22) - Head: 1.11 W/kg; Body-worn: 1.3 W/kg  
Digital mode (Part 24) - Head: 1.05 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.972 W/kg
