Section 1: Getting Started

Understanding this User Manual

The chapters of this manual generally follow the same order as
the menus and sub-menus in your Samsung Glyde™. A robust
index for quick reference to most features begins on page140.
Also included is important safety information that you should
know before using your Glyde™. Most of this information is near
the back of the guide, beginning on page117.

Notes and Tips

Throughout this guide are icons and text that are set apart from
the rest. These are intended to point out important information,
quick methods for activating features, to define terms, and more.
The definitions for these methods are as follows:
•
Notes
: Explain alternative options within the current feature, menu, or
sub-menu.
•
Tips
: Provide quick or innovative methods for performing functions
related to the subject at hand.
•
Important
: Points out important information about the current feature
that could affect performance, or even damage your phone.
This section allows you to start using your Glyde™ after
activating your service, setting up your voicemail, contacting
customer support, or getting an understanding of how this
manual is put together.

Using the Battery

Note:
This phone comes packaged with a partially charged rechargeable
standard Li-Ion battery and travel charger.
You must fully charge the battery before using your phone for the first
time. A fully discharged battery requires up to 4 hours of charge time.
Important!:
Although the phone can be used while the battery is charging,
the battery must be fully charged before first use, otherwise you
could damage the battery.
Battery Indicator
The battery indicator in the upper-right corner of the display
indicates battery power level. Four bars indicate a full charge,
while an empty icon indicates an almost empty battery. 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, it shuts
down.
