FCC Notice and Cautions
FCC Notice
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
z This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for 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 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 or relocate the receiving antenna.
-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The  may cause TV or radio interference if used in close proximity to receiving
equipment. The FCC can require you to stop using the  if such interference
cannot be eliminated.
Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) must comply
with the National Fire Protection Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard,
contact the National Fire Protection Association, One Battery march Park, Quincy,
MA 02269, Attn: Publication Sales Division.
Cautions
Changes or modifications made in the radio , not expressly approved by
Samsung, will void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
The use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the 
warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the .
Although your  is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be
broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending or sitting on it.
Other Important Safety Information
z Only qualified personnel should service the  or install the  in a
vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may invalidate
any warranty applicable to the device.
z Check regularly that all wireless  equipment in your vehicle is mounted
and operating properly.
z Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in the
same compartment as the , its parts or accessories.
z For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag inflates with
great force. Do not place objects, including both installed or portable wireless
equipment in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If
wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious
injury could result.
z Switch your  off before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless 
in aircraft is illegal and may be dangerous to the aircraft's operation.
z Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or denial of
telephone services to the offender, or legal action, or both.
