Small parts may cause choking or serious injury if swallowed. Protect your hearing
Excessive exposure t o sound at high volum es can cause hearing dam age. Always t urn t he volum e down before plugging the earphones int o an audio source and use only t he m inim um volum e sett ing necessary t o hear your conv ersat ion or m usic. Install mobile phones and equipment with caution Ensure that any mobile phones or related equipment installed in your vehicle are securely mounted. Avoid placing your phone and accessories near or in an air bag deployment area. Improperly installed wireless equipment can cause serious injury when air bags inflate rapidly. Handle and dispose of batteries and chargers with care  Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers specifically designed for your phone. Incompatible batteries and chargers can cause serious injuries or damage to your phone.  Never dispose of batteries or phones in a fire. Follow all local regulations when disposing used batteries or phones.  Never place batteries or phones on or in heating devices, such as microwave ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode when overheated.  Never crush or puncture the battery. Avoid exposing the battery to high external pressure, which can lead to an internal short circuit and overheating. Avoid interference with pacemakers Maintain a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between mobile phones and pacemakers to avoid potential interference, as recommended by manufacturers and the independent research group, Wireless Technology Research. If you have any reason to suspect that your phone is interfering with a pacemaker or other medical device, turn off the phone immediately and contact the manufacturer of the pacemaker or medical device for guidance. Turn off the phone in potentially explosive environments Do not use your phone at refuelling points (service stations) or near fuels or chemicals. Turn off your phone whenever directed by warning signs or instructions. Your phone could cause explosions or fire in and around fuel or chemical storage and transfer areas or blasting areas. Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the same compartment as the phone, its parts, or accessories. Reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries When sending text messages or playing games on your phone, hold the phone with a relaxed grip, press the keys lightly, use special features that reduce the number of keys you have to press (such as templates and predictive text), and take frequent breaks.
Safety precautions Drive safely at all times Avoid using your phone while driving and obey all regulations that restrict the use of mobile phones while driving. Use hands-free accessories to increase your safety when possible. Follow all safety warnings and regulations Comply with any regulations that restrict the use of a mobile phone in a certain area.

Turn off the phone near medical equipment Your phone can interfere with medical equipment in hospitals or health care facilities. Follow all regulations, posted warnings, and directions from medical personnel. Turn off the phone or disable the wireless functions when in an aircraft Your phone can cause interference with aircraft equipment. Follow all airline regulations and turn off your phone or switch to a mode that disables the wireless functions when directed by airline personnel. Protect batteries and chargers from damage Avoid exposing batteries to very cold or very hot temperatures (below 0° C/32° F or above 45° C/ 113° F). Extreme temperatures can reduce the charging capacity and life of your batteries. Prevent batteries from contacting metal objects, as this can create a connection between the + and - terminals of your batteries and lead to temporary or permanent battery damage. Never use a damaged charger or battery. Handle your phone carefully and sensibly Do not allow your phone to get wet—liquids can cause serious damage. Do not handle your phone with wet hands. Water damage to your phone can void your manufacturer’s warranty.  Avoid using or storing your phone in dusty, dirty areas to prevent damage to moving parts.  Your phone is a complex electronic device— protect it from impacts and rough handling to avoid serious damage.  Do not paint your phone, as paint can clog moving parts and prevent proper operation.  Avoid using the phone’s camera flash or light close to the eyes of children or animals.  Your phone and memory cards may be damaged by exposure to magnetic fields. Do not use carrying cases or accessories with magnetic closures or allow your phone to come in contact with magnetic fields for extended
periods of time. Avoid interference with other electronic devices Your phone emits radio frequency (RF) signals that may interfere with unshielded or improperly shielded electronic equipment, such as pacemakers, hearing aids, medical devices, and other electronic devices in homes or vehicles. Consult the manufacturers of your electronic devices to solve any interference problems you experience. Important usage information Use your phone in the normal position Avoid contact with your phone’s internal antenna. Allow only qualified personnel to service your phone Allowing unqualified personnel to service your phone may result in damage to your phone and will void your warranty. Ensure maximum battery and charger life  Avoid charging batteries for more than a week, as overcharging may shorten battery life.  Over time, unused batteries will discharge and must be recharged before use.  Disconnect chargers from power sources when not in use.  Use batteries only for their intended purpose. Handle SIM cards and memory cards with care  Do not remove a card while the phone is transferring or accessing information, as this could result in loss of data and/or damage to the card or phone.  Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity, and electrical noise from other devices.  Frequent writing and erasing will shorten the life span of memory cards.  Do not touch gold-coloured contacts or terminals with your fingers or metal objects. If dirty, wipe the card with a soft cloth. Ensure access to emergency services Emergency calls from your phone may not be possible in some areas or circumstances. Before travelling in remote or undeveloped areas, plan an alternate method of contacting emergency services personnel.
Health and safety information Ex posure t o Radio Frequency ( RF) Signa ls Cer t ifica t ion I nfor m at ion ( SAR) Your wireless phone is a radio t ransm itt er and receiver . I t is designed and m anufactured not to exceed t he exposure lim it s for radio frequency ( RF) energy set by the Federal Com m unicat ions Com m ission (FCC) of the U.S. governm ent. These FCC exposure lim its are derived from the recom m endations of two expert organizations, t he Nat ional Counsel on Radiation Prot ect ion and Measurem ent ( NCRP) and t he I nst itut e of Elect rical and Electronics Engineers (I EEE). I n bot h cases, the recom m endations w ere developed by scient ific and engineering expert s drawn from indust ry, governm ent , and academ ia after extensive reviews of the scientific liter ature relat ed to t he biological effect s of RF energy. The exposure lim it set by the FCC for wireless m obile phones em ploys a unit of m easurem ent known as t he Specific Absorpt ion Rat e ( SAR). The SAR is a m easure of the rate of absorpt ion of RF energy by t he hum an body expressed in units of wat t s per kilogram (W/ kg) . The FCC requires wireless phones to com ply wit h a safet y lim it of 1.6 wat ts per kilogram ( 1.6 W/ kg) . The FCC exposure lim it incorporat es a subst ant ial m argin of safety t o give addit ional protect ion to t he public and t o account for any variations in m easurem ent s. SAR t est s are conduct ed using st andard operating posit ions accept ed by the FCC with t he phone transm it t ing at its highest cert ified power level in all t est ed frequency bands. Although t he SAR is determ ined at the highest cert ified power level, t he act ual SAR lev el of the phone while operat ing can be well below t he m axim um value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at m ultiple power levels so as to use only t he power required t o reach t he netw ork. I n general, t he closer you are to a wireless base st ation ant enna, the lower t he power output. Before a new m odel phone is available for sale to t he public, it m ust be test ed and cert ified to t he FCC t hat it does not exceed t he exposure lim it est ablished by t he FCC. Test s for each m odel phone are perform ed in positions and locations ( e.g. at t he ear and worn on t he body) as required by the FCC. For body w orn operation, t his m odel phone has been t ested and m eets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with a Sam sung accessory designated for t his product or when used wit h an accessory t hat contains no m etal and t hat positions the handset a m inim um of 1.0 cm from the body. Non-com pliance wit h t he above rest rictions m ay result in violation of FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR inform at ion on t his and ot her m odel phones can be viewed on-line at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. Please use t he phone FCC I D num ber for
search, A3LGTB7810. Som etim es it m ay be necessary to remove t he battery pack t o find the num ber. Once you have t he FCC I D num ber for a part icular phone, follow the inst ruct ions on t he website and it should provide values for t ypical or m axim um SAR for a part icular phone. Addit ional product specific SAR inform at ion can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/ cgb/ sar. Consu m er I nform at ion on W ire less Phones The U.S. Food and Drug Adm inist rat ion (FDA) has published a series of Quest ions and Answers for consum ers relating t o radio frequency ( RF) exposur e from wireless phones. The FDA publicat ion includes the following inform at ion: W ha t k in ds of phones are t he subj e ct of t his upda t e ? The t erm wireless phone refers here to hand-held wireless phones wit h built-in ant ennas, oft en called “ cell,” “ m obile,” or “ PCS” phones. These types of wireless phones can expose the user to m easurable radio frequency energy ( RF) because of the short dist ance bet w een the phone and t he user's head. These RF exposures are lim ited by Federal Com m unicat ions Com m ission safet y guidelines t hat were developed w ith the advice of FDA and other federal healt h and safety agencies. When the phone is locat ed at greater dist ances from the user, t he exposure to RF is drastically lower because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly with increasing dist ance from the source. The so-called “ cordless phones,” which have a base unit connected to t he t elephone wiring in a house, typically operate at far lower power levels, and t hus produce RF exposures well wit hin t he FCC's com pliance lim it s. Do w ir eless phone s pose a he alt h hazard? The available scient ific evidence does not show that any healt h problem s are associated wit h using wireless phones. There is no proof, however, that w ireless phones ar e absolut ely safe. Wireless phones em it low levels of radio frequency energy ( RF) in t he m icrowave range while being used. They also em it ver y low levels of RF w hen in the st and-by m ode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce healt h effect s (by heat ing t issue), exposure to low level RF t hat does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse healt h effect s. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not found any biological effect s. Som e st udies have suggest ed that som e biological effect s m ay occur, but such findings have not been confirm ed by addit ional research. I n som e cases, other researchers have had difficulty in reproducing t hose st udies, or in determ ining t he reasons for inconsist ent results. W ha t is FDA's r ole concer ning t he safe t y of w ir eless phone s? Under the law, FDA does not review t he safet y of radiation-em itt ing consum er product s such as wireless phones before they can be sold, as it does wit h new drugs or m edical devices. However, t he agency has aut hority to t ake act ion if wireless phones are shown t o em it radio frequency energy ( RF) at a level t hat is hazardous to t he user. I n such a
case, FDA could require t he m anufact ur ers of wireless phones t o not ify users of the healt h hazard and to repair, replace or recall t he phones so that the hazard no longer exists. Alt hough t he exist ing scient ific dat a do not j ustify FDA regulatory act ions, FDA has urged t he wireless phone indust ry t o t ake a num ber of st eps, including t he following:  “ Support needed research int o possible biological effect s of RF of the t ype em it t ed by wireless phones;  “ Design wireless phones in a way that m inim izes any RF exposure to t he user t hat is not necessary for device function; and  “ Cooperate in pr oviding users of wireless phones with t he best possible inform at ion on possible effect s of wireless phone use on hum an health. FDA belongs t o an int eragency working group of the feder al agencies t hat have responsibility for different aspect s of RF safety t o ensure coordinated effort s at the federal level. The following agencies belong t o this working group:  “ Nat ional I nst itute for Occupational Safety and Healt h  “ Environm ental Prot ect ion Agency  “ Federal Com m unicat ions Com m ission  “ Occupational Safety and Healt h Adm inistrat ion  “ Nat ional Telecom m unicat ions and I nform at ion Adm inist rat ion The Nat ional I nst it ut es of Health par ticipat es in som e inter agency working group act ivit ies, as well. FDA shares regulatory responsibilit ies for w ireless phones wit h t he Federal Com m unicat ions Com m ission ( FCC). All phones t hat are sold in t he Unit ed St ates m ust com ply with FCC safety guidelines t hat lim it RF exposure. FCC relies on FDA and ot her healt h agencies for safety quest ions about wireless phones. FCC also regulates t he base st ations t hat t he wireless phone net works rely upon. While t hese base st ations operat e at higher power t han do t he wireless phones t hem selves, the RF exposures that people get from these base st ations are typically t housands of t im es lower than those t hey can get from wireless phones. Base st ations are thus not the prim ary subj ect of the safety quest ions discussed in this docum ent . W ha t a re t he r esu lt s of t h e resea r ch done a lre a dy? The research done t hus far has produced conflict ing results, and m any studies have suffered from flaws in t heir research m ethods. Anim al experim ent s invest igat ing t he effect s of radio frequency energy ( RF) exposures characterist ic of wireless phones have yielded conflicting results t hat often cannot be repeated in ot her laboratories. A few anim al studies, however , have suggest ed that low levels of RF could accelerate the developm ent of cancer in laboratory anim als. However, m any of t he studies that showed increased tum or developm ent used anim als t hat had been genet ically engineered or t reated with cancer-causing chem icals so
as to be pre-disposed t o develop cancer in absence of RF exposure. Ot her studies exposed t he anim als t o RF for up t o 22 hours per day. These conditions are not sim ilar t o the conditions under which people use wireless phones, so we don't know with cert aint y what t he result s of such studies m ean for hum an healt h. Three large epidem iology st udies have been published since Decem ber 2000. Between t hem , t he st udies invest igat ed any possible associat ion between the use of wireless phones and prim ary brain cancer, gliom a, m eningiom a, or acoust ic neurom a, t um ors of the brain or salivary gland, leukem ia, or other cancers. None of t he st udies dem onstrat ed t he exist ence of any harm ful health effect s from wireless phones RF exposur es. However, none of the st udies can answer quest ions about long-term exposures, since t he average period of phone use in t hese studies was around three years. W ha t re sea rch is ne eded t o decide w het her RF e xposure fr om w ir eless phone s poses a h ealt h risk ? A com bination of laboratory studies and epidem iological st udies of people act ually using wireless phones w ould provide som e of t he data t hat are needed. Lifet im e anim al exposure st udies could be com pleted in a few years. How ever , very large num bers of anim als would be needed t o provide reliable proof of a cancer prom ot ing effect if one exist s. Epidem iological st udies can pr ovide dat a t hat is direct ly applicable t o hum an populations, but ten or m ore years' follow-up m ay be needed t o provide answers about som e health effects, such as cancer. This is because the int erval between t he t ime of exposure t o a cancer-causing agent and the t im e t um ors develop - if t hey do - m ay be m any, m any years. The int erpretation of epidem iological st udies is ham pered by difficulties in m easuring act ual RF exposure during day-t o-day use of wireless phones. Many factors affect this m easurem ent , such as the angle at which t he phone is held, or which m odel of phone is used. W ha t is FDA doing t o find out m ore a bout t he possible hea lt h effe ct s of w ir eless phone RF? FDA is working with the U.S. Nat ional Toxicology Program and with groups of invest igat ors around t he world to ensure that high priority anim al st udies are conduct ed to address im portant quest ions about t he effect s of exposure t o radio frequency ener gy (RF). FDA has been a leading part icipant in the World Health Or ganizat ion int ernational Elect rom agnetic Fields ( EMF) Proj ect since it s incept ion in 1996. An influent ial result of t his wor k has been the developm ent of a detailed agenda of r esearch needs t hat has driven t he est ablishm ent of new research program s around t he world. The Proj ect has also helped develop a series of public inform at ion docum ent s on EMF issues. FDA and Cellular Telecom m unicat ions & I nt ernet Association ( CTI A) have a form al Cooperative Resear ch and Developm ent Agreem ent ( CRADA) to do research on wireless phone safet y. FDA provides t he scient ific
oversight, obtaining input from expert s in governm ent , industry, and academ ic organizations. CTI A-funded research is conduct ed through contr act s to independent invest igat ors. The init ial research will include bot h laboratory studies and st udies of wireless phone users. The CRADA will also include a broad assessm ent of addit ional research needs in the cont ext of t he lat est research developm ent s around t he world. W hat steps can I tak e to r educe m y exposur e t o ra dio fr equency ener gy from m y w ir eless phone? I f there is a risk from these product s - and at t his point we do not know that there is - it is probably very sm all. But if you are concerned about avoiding even pot ential risks, you can take a few sim ple steps to m inim ize your exposure t o radio frequency energy ( RF) . Since t im e is a key factor in how m uch exposure a person receives, reducing t he am ount of t im e spent using a wireless phone will reduce RF exposure.  “ I f you m ust conduct extended conversat ions by wireless phone every day, you could place m ore dist ance between your body and the source of the RF, since t he exposure level drops off dram atically wit h dist ance. For exam ple, you could use a headset and carry t he wireless phone away from your body. Again, t he scient ific data do not dem onst rat e t hat w ireless phones are harm ful. But if you are concerned about the RF exposur e fr om these product s, you can use m easures like t hose described above t o reduce your RF exposure from wireless phone use. W ha t a bout ch ildren using w ir eless phones? The scient ific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones, including children and t eenagers. I f you want t o t ake st eps t o lower exposure t o radio frequency energy ( RF) , t he m easures described above would apply t o children and t eenagers using w ireless phones. Reducing t he t im e of wireless phone use and increasing t he dist ance between the user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure. Som e groups sponsored by ot her nat ional governm ent s have advised t hat children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For exam ple, the governm ent in t he Unit ed Kingdom dist ribut ed leaflet s containing such a recom m endation in Decem ber 2000. They noted t hat no evidence exist s that using a wireless phone causes brain t um ors or other ill effect s. Their recom m endat ion to lim it wireless phone use by children was st rict ly precaut ionary; it was not based on scientific evidence t hat any healt h hazard exist s. Do hands-fr ee k it s for w ir eless phones re duce risk s fr om exposure t o RF em issions? Since t here are no known risks from exposure to RF em issions from wireless phones, there is no reason t o believe t hat hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free kit s can be used wit h wireless phones for convenience and com fort . These system s reduce the absorpt ion of RF energy in t he head because the phone, which is t he source of the RF em issions, will not
be placed against t he head. On t he other hand, if t he phone is m ount ed against t he waist or other part of t he body during use, t hen that part of the body will absorb m ore RF ener gy. Wireless phones m arketed in t he U.S. are required t o m eet safet y requirem ents regardless of whether t hey are used against the head or against the body. Either configurat ion should result in com pliance with t he safety lim it . Do w ir eless phone a ccessories t hat claim t o shield t h e head from RF ra dia t ion w ork? Since t here are no known risks from exposure to RF em issions from wireless phones, there is no reason to believe t hat accessories that claim to shield t he head from those em issions reduce risks. Som e product s t hat claim t o shield t he user from RF absorption use special phone cases, while others involve not hing m ore than a m et allic accessory attached t o the phone. St udies have shown that t hese product s generally do not work as advertised. Unlike “ hand-free” kits, t hese so-called “ shields” m ay interfere wit h proper operation of t he phone. The phone m ay be forced to boost its power t o com pensate, leading t o an increase in RF absorpt ion. I n February 2002, t he Federal t rade Comm ission (FTC) charged two com panies t hat sold devices t hat claim ed t o protect wireless phone users from radiation wit h m aking false and unsubstant iat ed claim s. Accor ding t o FTC, these defendant s lacked a reasonable basis to subst antiate their claim . W ha t a bout w ire less phone int er fer ence w it h m edical equipm ent ? Radio frequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can interact wit h som e elect ronic devices. For this reason, FDA helped develop a det ailed t est m et hod t o m easure elect rom agnet ic int erference ( EMI ) of im plant ed cardiac pacem akers and defibrillators fr om wireless telephones. This t est m et hod is now part of a st andard sponsored by t he Association for t he Advancem ent of Medical inst rum ent at ion ( AAMI ) . The final draft, a j oint effort by FDA, m edical device m anufact urers, and m any ot her groups, was com pleted in late 2000. This st andard will allow m anufact urers t o ensure that cardiac pacem akers and defibrillators are safe from wireless phone EMI . FDA has t est ed wireless phones and helped develop a volunt ary st andard sponsored by t he I nst it ut e of Elect rical and Electr onic Engineers ( I EEE) . This st andard specifies t est m ethods and perform ance requirem ent s for hearing aids and wireless phones so t hat no interference occur s when a person uses a com pat ible phone and a com patible hearing aid at t he sam e tim e. This standard was approved by t he I EEE in 2000. FDA continues t o m onitor t he use of wireless phones for possible int eractions wit h ot her m edical devices. Should harm ful int erference be found t o occur, FDA will conduct test ing to assess the int erference and work t o resolve the problem .

But an im portant responsibilit y accom panies t he benefits of wireless phones, one t hat every user m ust uphold. When driving a car, driving is your first responsibilit y. When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of a car, pract ice good com m on sense and rem em ber the following tips: 1. Get t o know your wireless phone and it s feat ures, such as speed dial and redial. I f available, t hese features help you to place your call wit hout t aking your attention off the road. 2. When available, use a hands-free device. I f possible, add an addit ional layer of convenience and safet y t o your wireless phone with one of t he m any hands free accessories available today. 3. Posit ion your wireless phone wit hin easy reach. Be able to access your w ireless phone without rem oving your eyes from the road. I f you get an incom ing call at an inconvenient t im e, let your voice m ail answer it for you. 4. Let t he person you are speaking wit h know you are driving; if necessary, suspend t he call in heavy traffic or hazardous weat her condit ions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice and even heavy t raffic can be hazardous. 5. Do not t ake notes or look up phone num bers while driving. Jotting down a “ t o do” list or flipping t hrough your address book t akes att ention away from your prim ary responsibility, driving safely. 6. Dial sensibly and assess the t raffic; if possible, place calls when you are not m oving or before pulling int o traffic. Try t o plan calls
when your car will be st ationary. I f you need t o m ake a call while m oving, dial only a few num bers, check t he road and your m irrors, then continue. 7. Do not engage in st ressful or em otional conversations t hat m ay be dist ract ing. Make people you are talking wit h aware you are driving and suspend conversations t hat have t he potent ial t o divert your att ent ion from the r oad. 8. Use your wireless phone t o call for help. Dial 9- 1- 1 or other local em ergency num ber in t he case of fire, t raffic accident or m edical em ergencies. Rem em ber, it is a free call on your wireless phone! 9. Use your wireless phone t o help ot hers in em ergencies. I f you see an aut o accident , cr im e in progress or other serious em ergency where lives are in danger, call 9- 1-1 or ot her local em ergency num ber, as you would want others to do for you. 10. Call roadside assist ance or a special non-em ergency wireless assist ance num ber when necessary. I f you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken t raffic signal, a m inor traffic accident where no one appears inj ured, or a vehicle you know t o be st olen, call roadside assist ance or other special non-em ergency num ber. “The w ir eless industry rem inds you t o use your phone safe ly w hen driving.” For m or e infor m at ion, plea se call 1 -888-901-SAFE, or visit our w eb-sit e w w w .w ow -com .com Provided by t he Ce llular Te lecom m unicat ions & I nt ernet Associa t ion Ope rat ing Environm ent Rem em ber to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always swit ch your phone off whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it m ay cause interference or danger. When connect ing the phone or any accessory to anot her device, read its user's guide for detailed safety inst ruct ions. Do not connect incom patible product s. As wit h ot her m obile radio t ransm itt ing equipm ent , users are advised that for t he satisfact ory operation of the equipm ent and for t he safet y of personnel, it is recom m ended t hat t he equipm ent should only be used in the norm al operat ing posit ion. Using Your Phone N ear Ot her Elect r onic Devices Most m odern elect ronic equipm ent is shielded from radio fr equency ( RF) signals. However, cert ain elect ronic equipm ent m ay not be shielded against t he RF signals from your wireless phone. Consult t he m anufacturer to discuss alternat ives. Pacem a k er s Pacem aker m anufact urers recom m end t hat a m inim um dist ance of 15 cm ( 6 inches) be m aint ained between a wireless phone and a pacem aker t o avoid potent ial interference wit h t he pacem aker.
These recom m endations are consistent wit h the independent research and recom m endations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons w it h pa cem aker s:  should always keep the phone m ore than 15 cm ( 6 inches) from t heir pacem aker when t he phone is switched on.  should not carry t he phone in a breast pocket.  should use t he ear opposit e t he pacem aker t o m inim ize potential interference. I f you have any reason to suspect t hat int erference is taking place, switch your phone off im m ediately. Hea r ing Aids Som e digital wireless phones m ay int erfere with som e hearing aids. I n t he event of such int erference, you m ay wish t o consult your hearing aid m anufacturer to discuss alternat ives.
