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

Do not remove the battery before removing the travel
adapter. Doing this may cause damage to the device.
To save energy, unplug the travel adapter when not in

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 0.834 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.
