Battery
Your device is powered by a rechargeable, standard Li-Ion
battery. A Wall/USB Charger (Charging Head and USB cable)
is included with the device, for charging the battery.
The battery comes partially charged. You must fully charge
the battery before using your device for the first time. A fully
discharged battery requires up to 4 hours of charge time.
After the first charge, you can use the device while charging.
Warning!
Use only 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.
Battery Indicator
The battery icon in the Status Bar shows battery power
level. Before the battery becomes too low to operate, the
battery icon flashes and a tone plays. If you continue using
the device without charging, the device will power off.
Tip:
Task Manager provides helpful information about
extending battery life. For more information, see “Task
Manager” on page 13.
