Charge the battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable standard Li-Ion battery. Only use Samsung-approved charging devices and batteries. Samsung accessories are designed to maximize battery life. Using other accessories may invalidate your warranty and may cause damage.

Use the desktop charger

The desktop charger operates from a 120/220 VAC wall outlet. It also acts as a cradle to hold your phone in a convenient, easy-to-use position while charging.

1.Plug the AC plug from the desktop charger into a standard 120 VAC or 220 VAC wall outlet.

2.Slide your phone, bottom end first, into the desktop charger. Your phone begins charging.

Tip: You can use your phone while charging; however, the battery charges faster if your phone is turned off.

Battery indicator

The battery indicator ( ) in the upper-right corner of the display indicates battery power level. Three bars indicate a full charge, while an empty battery icon ( ) indicates an almost empty battery.

Low battery warning

Two to three minutes before the battery becomes too low to operate, a blinking empty battery icon ( ) appears and a tone sounds. If you continue to operate the phone without charging, the phone shuts down. Be sure to monitor the battery strength icon and ensure your battery is adequately charged.
