Keep your phone and all accessories out of the reach of small children or animals.
Small parts may cause choking or serious injury if swallowed.
Protect your hearing
Listening to a headset at high volumes can damage your hearing. Use
only the minimum volume setting necessary to hear your conversation or music.
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
z 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.
z Never dispose of batteries or phones in a fire. Follow all local regulations
when disposing used batteries or phones.
z Never place batteries or phones on or in heating devices, such as microwave
ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode when overheated.
z 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

animals.
z 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
z Avoid charging batteries for more than a week, as overcharging may shorten
battery life.
z Over time, unused batteries will discharge and must be recharged before use.
z Disconnect chargers from power sources when not in use.
z Use batteries only for their intended purpose.
Handle SIM cards and memory cards with care
z 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.
z Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity, and electrical noise from
other devices.
z Frequent writing and erasing will shorten the life span of memory cards.
z 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.

Ex posure to Radio Fre que ncy ( RF) Signa ls
Cert ificat ion I nfor m at ion ( SAR)
Your wireless phone is a radio transm itt er and receiver. I t is designed and
m anufactured not to exceed the exposure lim its for radio frequency ( RF)
energy set by the Federal Com m unications Com m ission ( FCC) of t he U.S.
governm ent . These FCC exposure lim its are derived from the
recom m endations of t wo expert organizations, t he National Counsel on
Radiat ion Prot ection and Measurem ent ( NCRP) and the I nstitut e of
Electrical and Elect ronics Engineers ( I EEE). I n both cases, t he
recom m endations were developed by scient ific and engineering expert s
drawn from industry, governm ent , and academ ia after ext ensive reviews
of t he scientific lit erature related t o 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 t he rat e of absorpt ion of RF energy by t he hum an
body expressed in units of watts per kilogram ( W/ kg) . The FCC requires
wireless phones t o com ply wit h a safet y lim it of 1.6 watt s per kilogram
( 1.6 W/ kg) . The FCC exposure lim it incorporat es a subst ant ial m argin of
safety to give additional prot ect ion t o the public and t o account for any
variations in m easurem ent s.
SAR test s are conduct ed using st andard operating positions accepted by
the FCC with t he phone t ransm itt ing at its highest cert ified power level in
all t est ed frequency bands. Alt hough t he SAR is determ ined at t he highest
certified power level, t he act ual SAR level of t he phone while operating
can be well below the m axim um value. This is because the phone is
designed t o operate at m ultiple power levels so as t o use only t he power
required t o reach t he network. I n general, t he closer you are t o a wireless
base st ation antenna, t he lower t he power output .
Before a new m odel phone is available for sale t o the public, it m ust be
test ed and cert ified t o the FCC that it does not exceed the exposure lim it
est ablished by t he FCC. Test s for each m odel phone are perform ed in
posit ions and locations ( e.g. at t he ear and worn on t he body) as required
by t he FCC.
For body worn operation, t his m odel phone has been t est ed and m eet s
the FCC RF exposure guidelines whenused with a Sam sung accessory
designated for t his product or when used with an accessory t hat cont ains
no m etal and t hat posit ions t he handset a m inim um of 1.5 cm from t he
body.
Non- com pliance wit h the above rest rictions m ay result in violat ion of FCC
RF exposure guidelines.
SAR inform ation on t his and ot her m odel phones can be viewed on- line at
www.fcc.gov/ oet/ fccid. This site uses t he phone FCC I D num ber,
A3LGTC5010D. Som etim es it m ay be necessary to rem ove t he batt ery

Consum e r I nfor m at ion on W irele ss Phones
The U.S. Food and Drug Adm inist ration ( FDA) has published a series of
Quest ions and Answers for consum ers relating t o radio frequency ( RF)
exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publicat ion includes the
following inform at ion:
W ha t k inds of phones are t h e subj e ct of t his updat 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 t he user t o m easurable radio
frequency energy ( RF) because of t he short dist ance between the phone
and the user's head. These RF exposures are lim ited by Federal
Com m unications Com m ission safety guidelines t hat were developed with
the advice of FDA and other federal health and safety agencies. When t he
phone is located at great er dist ances from the user, the exposure t o RF is
drastically lower because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly with
increasing dist ance from t he source. The so-called “ cordless phones,”
which have a base unit connect ed t o the t elephone wiring in a house,
typically operate at far lower power levels, and t hus produce RF
exposures well within the FCC's com pliance lim its.
Do w ireless phones pose a he a lt h hazard?
The available scient ific evidence does not show that any health problem s
are associated with using wireless phones. There is no proof, however,
that wireless phones are 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 very low levels of RF when in t he st and- by m ode. Whereas
high levels of RF can produce health effect s ( by heat ing tissue), exposure
to low level RF t hat does not produce heat ing effect s causes no known
adverse health effects. Many st udies of low level RF exposures have not
found any biological effect s. Som e studies have suggest ed t hat som e
biological effect s m ay occur, but such findings have not been confirm ed
by additional research. I n som e cases, ot her researchers have had
difficult y in reproducing t hose st udies, or in determ ining the reasons for
inconsistent results.
W ha t is FD A's r ole conce r ning t he safet y of w ire less phones?
Under t he law, FDA does not review t he safet y of radiat ion- em it t ing
consum er product s such as wireless phones before t hey can be sold, as it
does wit h new drugs or m edical devices. However, t he agency has
authority t o take act ion if wireless phones are shown t o em it radio
frequency energy ( RF) at a level that is hazardous to t he user. I n such a
case, FDA could require t he m anufacturers of w ireless phones to notify
users of t he health hazard and t o repair, replace or recall the phones so
that t he hazard no longer exists.
Alt hough t he exist ing scient ific data do not j ust ify FDA regulatory actions,
FDA has urged t he wireless phone indust ry t o t ake a num ber of st eps,
including t he following:
z “ Support needed research int o possible biological effect s of RF of
the type em itted by wireless phones;
z “ Design wireless phones in a way t hat m inim izes any RF exposure
to t he user t hat is not necessary for device funct ion; and
z “ Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones wit h the best
possible inform ation on possible effect s of wireless phone use on
hum an health.
FDA belongs t o an interagency working group of t he federal agencies that
have responsibility for different aspect s of RF safet y to ensure coordinated
effort s at t he federal level. The following agencies belong to t his working
group:
z “ Nat ional I nst it ut e for Occupational Safet y and Healt h
z “ Environm ent al Protect ion Agency
z “ Federal Com m unications Com m ission
z “ Occupational Safety and Healt h Adm inist ration
z “ Nat ional Telecom m unications and I nform ation Adm inist ration
The National I nst itut es of Health part icipates in som e int eragency working
group act ivities, as well.
FDA shares regulatory responsibilit ies for wireless phones with t he Federal
Com m unications Com m ission ( FCC). All phones t hat are sold in t he Unit ed
St at es m ust com ply wit h FCC safety guidelines t hat lim it RF exposure.
FCC relies on FDA and other healt h agencies for safety quest ions about
wireless phones.
FCC also regulates t he base st ations t hat the wireless phone networks
rely upon. While t hese base st at ions operat e at higher power t han do t he
wireless phones t hem selves, t he RF exposures t hat people get from these
base st ations are t ypically t housands of t im es lower t han t hose t hey can
get from wireless phones. Base stations are t hus not t he prim ary subj ect
of t he safety quest ions discussed in t his docum ent .
W ha t a r e the result s of t h e r e search done a lr e 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 charact erist ic of wireless phones have yielded conflict ing
results that oft en cannot be repeat ed in ot her laboratories. A few anim al
studies, however, have suggest ed t hat low levels of RF could accelerate
the developm ent of cancer in laboratory anim als. However, m any of the
studies t hat showed increased t um or developm ent used anim als that had
been genetically engineered or t reat ed wit h cancer- causing chem icals so
as t o 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
condit ions are not sim ilar to t he condit ions under which people use
wireless phones, so we don't know wit h cert aint y what t he results of such
studies m ean for hum an healt h.
Three large epidem iology st udies have been published since Decem ber
2000. Between them , t he st udies invest igated any possible associat ion
between t he 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
exposures. However, none of t he studies can answer quest ions about
long- t erm exposures, since t he average period of phone use in t hese
studies was around t hree years.
W ha t r e sea rch is neede d t o decide w het he r RF e x posur e from
w ir e less phones poses a healt h r isk ?
A com bination of laboratory studies and epidem iological st udies of people
act ually using wireless phones would provide som e of t he data t hat are
needed. Lifetim e anim al exposure st udies could be com plet ed in a few
years. However, 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 provide dat a t hat is direct ly applicable t o
hum an populations, but t en or m ore years' follow- up m ay be needed t o
provide answers about som e health effect s, such as cancer. This is
because the int erval between t he tim e of exposure t o a cancer- causing
agent and t he tim e tum ors develop - if they do - m ay be m any, m any
years. The interpret at ion of epidem iological st udies is ham pered by
difficult ies in m easuring actual RF exposure during day- t o-day use of
wireless phones. Many fact ors affect t his m easurem ent , such as t he angle
at which t he phone is held, or which m odel of phone is used.
W ha t is FD A doing t o find ou t m ore a bout t he possible healt h
effe cts of w ireless phone RF?
FDA is working wit h the U.S. National Toxicology Program and with
groups of invest igators around t he world t o ensure t hat high priorit y
anim al studies are conduct ed t o address im port ant quest ions about t he
effect s of exposure t o radio frequency energy ( RF) .
FDA has been a leading participant in t he World Healt h Organization
int ernational Electrom agnetic Fields ( EMF) Project since its inception in
1996. An influent ial result of this work has been t he developm ent of a
detailed agenda of research 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 ation docum ent s on EMF issues.
FDA and Cellular Telecom m unications & I nt ernet Association ( CTI A) have
a form al Cooperative Research and Developm ent Agreem ent ( CRADA) t o
do research on wireless phone safet y. FDA provides t he scient ific
oversight , obt aining input from expert s in governm ent, indust ry, and
academ ic organizations. CTI A- funded research is conducted t hrough
cont ract s t o independent invest igators. The initial research will include
both laboratory studies and st udies of wireless phone users. The CRADA
will also include a broad assessm ent of additional research needs in t he
cont ext of the lat est research developm ent s around t he world.
W ha t steps can I t a ke t o r e duce m y ex posure t o radio frequency
ene rgy from m y w ireless phone ?
I f t here is a risk from t hese product s - and at t his point we do not know
that t here is - it is probably very sm all. But if you are concerned about
avoiding even potent ial risks, you can t ake a few sim ple steps t o m inim ize
your exposure t o radio frequency energy ( RF). Since tim e is a key fact or
in how m uch exposure a person receives, reducing the am ount of t im e
spent using a wireless phone will reduce RF exposure.
z “ I f you m ust conduct ext ended conversations by wireless phone
every day, you could place m ore dist ance between your body and
the source of t he RF, since the exposure level drops off
dram atically with dist ance. For exam ple, you could use a headset
and carry t he wireless phone away from your body or use a
wireless phone connect ed t o a rem ote ant enna.
Again, t he scient ific data do not dem onst rate t hat wireless phones are
harm ful. But if you are concerned about t he RF exposure from these
product s, you can use m easures like those described above t o reduce
your RF exposure from wireless phone use.
W ha t a bout children using w ire less phon e s?
The scient ific evidence does not show a danger t o 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 teenagers using wireless phones.
Reducing t he t im e of wireless phone use and increasing the dist ance
between t he user and t he RF source will reduce RF exposure.
Som e groups sponsored by other national 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 United Kingdom distribut ed leaflets cont aining 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 endation to lim it wireless phone use by children was st rict ly
precautionary; it was not based on scient ific evidence t hat any healt h
hazard exist s.
Do h a n ds- free k it s for w ire le ss phones reduce r isk s from e x posur e
t o RF em issions?
Since t here are no known risks from exposure t o RF em issions from
wireless phones, there is no reason t o believe that hands- free kits reduce
risks. Hands- free kit s can be used with wireless phones for convenience
and com fort . These syst em s reduce t he absorpt ion of RF energy in t he
head because t he phone, which is the source of t he RF em issions, will not
be placed against t he head. On the other hand, if t he phone is m ounted
against the waist or other part of the body during use, t hen t hat part of
the body will absorb m ore RF energy. Wireless phones m arketed in t he
U.S. are required t o m eet safet y requirem ent s regardless of whether t hey
are used against t he head or against t he body. Eit her configuration should
result in com pliance wit h t he safet y lim it.
Do w ireless phone a cce ssor ies t hat cla im t o shield t he hea d from
RF r adiat ion w or k ?
Since t here are no known risks from exposure t o RF em issions from
wireless phones, there is no reason t o believe that accessories t hat claim
to shield t he head from t hose em issions reduce risks. Som e product s t hat
claim to shield t he user from RF absorpt ion use special phone cases, while
others involve nothing m ore t han a m etallic accessory att ached t o the
phone. Studies have shown that t hese product s generally do not work as
advert ised. Unlike “ hand- free” kits, t hese so-called “ shields” m ay int erfere
wit h proper operation of t he phone. The phone m ay be forced t o boost its
power t o com pensate, leading to an increase in RF absorpt ion. I n
February 2002, t he Federal t rade Com m ission ( FTC) charged t wo
com panies that sold devices that claim ed t o protect wireless phone users
from radiation with m aking false and unsubst ant iat ed claim s. According t o
FTC, these defendants lacked a reasonable basis t o substant iate their
claim .
W ha t a bout w ireless phone int erference w it h m edica l equipm e nt ?
Radio frequency energy ( RF) from wireless phones can int eract with som e
elect ronic devices. For this reason, FDA helped develop a detailed t est
m ethod to m easure electrom agnet ic int erference ( EMI ) of im planted
cardiac pacem akers and defibrillat ors from wireless t elephones. This t est
m ethod is now part of a st andard sponsored by t he Association for t he
Advancem ent of Medical inst rum ent ation ( AAMI ) . The final draft , a j oint
effort by FDA, m edical device m anufact urers, and m any other groups,
was com pleted in late 2000. This st andard will allow m anufact urers t o
ensure t hat cardiac pacem akers and defibrillat ors 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 Electronic
Engineers ( I EEE) . This st andard specifies t est m ethods and perform ance
requirem ents for hearing aids and wireless phones so that no interference
occurs when a person uses a com patible phone and a com patible hearing
aid at the sam e t im e. This st andard was approved by t he I EEE in 2000.
FDA cont inues t o m onitor t he use of wireless phones for possible
int eract ions wit h other m edical devices. Should harm ful interference be
found t o occur, FDA will conduct t est ing t o assess t he int erference and
work t o resolve the problem .

Roa d Safet y
Your wireless phone gives you t he powerful abilit y t o com m unicate by
voice, alm ost anywhere, anyt im e. But an im port ant 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 responsibility. When using your
wireless phone behind t he wheel of a car, pract ice good com m on sense
and rem em ber t he following t ips:
1. Get t o know your wireless phone and its feat ures, such as speed
dial and redial. I f available, these feat ures help you t o place your
call without t aking your at t ent ion off t he road.
2. When available, use a hands- free device. I f possible, add an
additional layer of convenience and safet y to your wireless phone
wit h one of the m any hands free accessories available t oday.
3. Position your wireless phone wit hin easy reach. Be able t o access
your wireless phone without rem oving your eyes from t he 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 t raffic 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. Jott ing
down a “ t o do” list or flipping t hrough your address book t akes
att ent ion away from your prim ary responsibilit y, driving safely.
6. Dial sensibly and assess t he traffic; if possible, place calls when
you are not m oving or before pulling int o t raffic. Try t o plan calls
when your car will be stationary. I f you need to m ake a call while
m oving, dial only a few num bers, check t he road and your m irrors,
then cont inue.
7. Do not engage in st ressful or em ot ional conversations t hat m ay be
dist ract ing. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving
and suspend conversations that have t he potent ial to divert your
att ent ion from t he road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9- 1- 1 or other local
em ergency num ber in t he case of fire, traffic accident or m edical
em ergencies. Rem em ber, it is a free call on your wireless phone!
9. Use your wireless phone to help ot hers in em ergencies. I f you see
an aut o accident, crim e in progress or other serious em ergency
where lives are in danger, call 9- 1- 1 or other local em ergency
num ber, as you would want others t o do for you.
10. Call roadside assistance 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 to be st olen, call roadside assist ance or other special non-
em ergency num ber.

Ba tt ery St a n dby a nd Ta lk Tim e
St andby and t alk t im es will vary depending on phone usage patt erns and
condit ions. Bat tery power consum pt ion depends on fact ors such as
network configuration, signal strengt h, operating t em perature, feat ures
select ed, frequency of calls, and voice, data, and ot her application usage
patterns.
Ba tt ery Preca ut ions
z Never use any charger or bat t ery t hat is dam aged in any way.
z Use the battery only for it s int ended purpose.
z I f you use t he phone near t he net work's base st ation, it uses less
power; t alk and st andby t im e are great ly affect ed by t he signal
strength on t he cellular network and t he param et ers set by t he
network operator.
z Batt ery charging t im e depends on t he rem aining battery charge
and the type of batt ery and charger used. The batt ery can be
charged and discharged hundreds of t im es, but it will gradually
wear out. When t he operation tim e ( t alk t im e and st andby t im e) is
not iceably short er than norm al, it is t im e t o buy a new battery.
z I f left unused, a fully charged batt ery will discharge it self over t im e.
z Use only Sam sung- approved batt eries and recharge your batt ery
only wit h Sam sung- approved chargers. When a charger is not in
use, disconnect it from t he power source. Do not leave t he batt ery
connect ed t o a charger for m ore t han a week, since overcharging
m ay short en its life.

z Do not leave t he batt ery in hot or cold places, such as in a car in
sum m er or wint er condit ions, as you will reduce t he capacit y and
lifet im e of t he batt ery. Always try t o keep the bat t ery at room
tem perature. A phone wit h a hot or cold batt ery m ay tem porarily
not work, even when the battery is fully charged. Li- ion batt eries
are part icularly affect ed by t em peratures below 0 ° C ( 32 ° F) .
z Do not short - circuit the battery. Accident al short - circuiting can
occur when a m etallic obj ect ( coin, clip or pen) causes a direct
connect ion between t he + and - t erm inals of the battery ( m et al
strips on t he batt ery) , for exam ple when you carry a spare batt ery
in a pocket or bag. Short - circuiting t he t erm inals m ay dam age the
battery or t he obj ect causing t he short- circuiting.
z Dispose of used batteries in accordance wit h local regulations. I n
som e areas, the disposal of batteries in household or business
trash m ay be prohibit ed. For safe disposal opt ions for Li- I on
batteries, cont act your nearest Sam sung aut horized service cent er.
Always recycle. Do not dispose of batt eries in a fire.
