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

Ex posu r e t o Radio Fr e que ncy ( RF) Signals
Cert 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 anufact ured not t o exceed t he exposure lim it s for radio frequency ( RF)
energy set by t he Federal Com m unicat ions Com m ission ( FCC) of t he U.S.
governm ent. These FCC exposure lim it s are derived from the
recom m endations of t wo expert organizat ions, the Nat ional Counsel on
Radiation Protect ion and Measurem ent ( NCRP) and t he I nstitute of
Elect rical and Elect ronics Engineers ( I EEE). I n bot h cases, t he
recom m endations were developed by scient ific and engineering expert s
drawn from industry, governm ent, and academ ia aft er ext ensive reviews
of t he scient ific lit erature related t o t he biological effect s of RF energy.
The exposure lim it set by t he FCC for wireless m obile phones em ploys a
unit of m easurem ent known as the 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 unit s of wat ts per kilogram ( W/ kg) . The FCC requires
wireless phones t o com ply with 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
safet y t o give additional prot ect ion t o t he public and t o account for any
variat ions in m easurem ents.
SAR t ests are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by
the FCC with t he phone t ransm itt ing at it s highest certified power level in
all t est ed frequency bands. Although t he SAR is det erm ined at t he highest
cert ified power level, t he act ual SAR level of t he phone while operat ing
can be well below t he m axim um value. This is because t he phone is
designed t o operat e at m ultiple power levels so as to use only t he power
required t o reach t he net work. I n general, the closer you are to a wireless
base stat ion ant enna, the lower t he power out put.
Before a new m odel phone is available for sale t o t he public, it m ust be
test ed and cert ified to t he 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 the body) as required
by the FCC.
For body worn operat ion, t his m odel phone has been t est ed and m eets
the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used wit h a Sam sung accessory
designat ed for this product or when used wit h an accessory t hat cont ains
no m et al and that positions t he handset a m inim um of 1.0 cm from t he
body.
Non- com pliance wit h t he above restrict ions m ay result in violation of FCC
RF exposure guidelines.
SAR inform ation on t his and other m odel phones can be viewed on- line at
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. This sit e uses t he phone FCC I D num ber,
A3LGTS5380L. Som etim es it m ay be necessary to rem ove the battery
pack t o find t he num ber. Once you have the FCC I D num ber for a
particular phone, follow t he inst ruct ions on the websit e and it should
provide values for typical or m axim um SAR for a part icular phone.
Additional product specific SAR inform at ion can also be obtained at

Consum e r I nform a t ion on W ir e less Phones
The U.S. Food and Drug Adm inist ration ( FDA) has published a series of
Quest ions and Answers for consum ers relat ing t o radio frequency ( RF)
exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publicat ion includes t he
following inform at ion:
W ha t k in ds of ph one s are t he subj ect of t his upda t e?
The term wireless phone refers here t o 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 the short distance bet ween t he phone
and the user's head. These RF exposures are lim ited by Federal
Com m unicat ions Com m ission safet y guidelines that were developed wit h
the advice of FDA and other federal healt h and safet y agencies. When t he
phone is located at greater distances from the user, t he exposure t o RF is
drast ically lower because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly with
increasing distance from t he source. The so- called cordless phones,
which have a base unit connected t o t he telephone wiring in a house,
typically operat e at far lower power levels, and thus produce RF
exposures well within t he FCC's com pliance lim it s.
Do w ir e le ss phones pose a he a lt h haza rd?
The available scient ific evidence does not show t hat 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 stand- by m ode. Whereas
high levels of RF can produce health effect s ( by heat ing t issue) , exposure
to low level RF t hat does not produce heat ing effect s causes no known
adverse healt h effect s. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not
found any biological effects. Som e studies have suggested 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, other researchers have had
difficulty in reproducing t hose studies, or in det erm ining t he reasons for
inconsist ent results.
W ha t is FDA's r ole conce r ning t he sa fet y of w ireless phones?
Under t he law, FDA does not review t he safet y of radiat ion- em itting
consum er products such as wireless phones before they can be sold, as it
does with new drugs or m edical devices. However, the 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 that is hazardous to t he user. I n such a
case, FDA could require t he m anufacturers of wireless phones to notify
users of t he healt h hazard and to repair, replace or recall t he phones so
that t he hazard no longer exist s.
Alt hough the exist ing scient ific data do not j ust ify FDA regulatory actions,
FDA has urged t he wireless phone industry t o t ake a num ber of steps,
including t he following:
z Support needed research int o possible biological effects of RF of
the type em it t ed 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 function; and
z Cooperat e in providing users of wireless phones wit h the best
possible inform at ion 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 t hat
have responsibilit y for different aspect s of RF safety t o ensure coordinated
effort s at t he federal level. The following agencies belong t o t his working
group:
z National I nstitute for Occupational Safet y and Health
z Environm ent al Prot ect ion Agency
z Federal Com m unications Com m ission
z Occupational Safety and Health Adm inist ration
z National Telecom m unications and I nform at ion Adm inistrat ion
The Nat ional I nstitutes of Health part icipat es in som e int eragency working
group activities, as well.
FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with t he Federal
Com m unicat ions Com m ission ( FCC). All phones that are sold in the United
St at es m ust com ply with FCC safet y guidelines that lim it RF exposure.
FCC relies on FDA and ot her health agencies for safety quest ions about
wireless phones.
FCC also regulates t he base stations t hat t he wireless phone net works
rely upon. While t hese base st ations operat e at higher power than do the
wireless phones t hem selves, t he RF exposures that people get from these
base stat ions are t ypically t housands of t im es lower t han those t hey can
get from wireless phones. Base stations are t hus not t he prim ary subj ect
of t he safet y quest ions discussed in this docum ent .
W ha t a r e t he result s of t h e r e sea rch done already?
The research done thus far has produced conflicting results, and m any
studies have suffered from flaws in t heir research m ethods. Anim al
experim ents invest igating t he effects of radio frequency energy ( RF)
exposures charact erist ic of wireless phones have yielded conflict ing
results t hat oft en cannot be repeated in other laboratories. A few anim al
studies, however, have suggest ed that low levels of RF could accelerate
the developm ent of cancer in laborat ory anim als. However, m any of t he
studies t hat showed increased tum or developm ent used anim als t hat had
been genetically 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
condit ions are not sim ilar t o t he condit ions under which people use
wireless phones, so we don't know with certaint y what t he results of such
studies m ean for hum an health.
Three large epidem iology st udies have been published since Decem ber
2000. Bet ween t hem , t he studies investigated any possible association
bet ween 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 t he brain or salivary gland,
leukem ia, or ot her cancers. None of t he st udies dem onstrated t he
existence of any harm ful health effect s from wireless phones RF
exposures. However, none of the studies can answer quest ions about
long- term exposures, since the average period of phone use in t hese
studies was around t hree years.
W ha t rese a rch is needed t o decide w het her RF ex posure fr om
w ir e less phones pose s a he a lt h risk?
A com bination of laborat ory studies and epidem iological studies of people
act ually using wireless phones would provide som e of the data t hat are
needed. Lifetim e anim al exposure studies 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 data 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 effect s, such as cancer. This is
because the int erval bet ween t he t im e of exposure t o a cancer- causing
agent and the t im e t um ors develop - if they do - m ay be m any, m any
years. The int erpretat ion of epidem iological st udies is ham pered by
difficulties in m easuring act ual RF exposure during day- to-day use of
wireless phones. Many factors affect t his m easurem ent , such as t he angle
at which the phone is held, or which m odel of phone is used.
W ha t is FDA doin g t o find out m ore about t h e possible healt h
effect s of w ireless phone RF?
FDA is working wit h t he U.S. Nat ional Toxicology Program and wit h
groups of invest igat ors around t he world t o ensure t hat high priority
anim al studies are conducted t o address im port ant questions about t he
effect s of exposure t o radio frequency energy ( RF) .
FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organizat ion
int ernational Elect rom agnetic Fields ( EMF) Project since its inception in
1996. An influent ial result of t his work has been t he developm ent of a
det ailed 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 nternet Association ( CTI A) have
a form al Cooperat ive Research and Developm ent Agreem ent ( CRADA) t o
do research on wireless phone safet y. FDA provides t he scient ific
oversight, obtaining input from experts in governm ent , indust ry, and
academ ic organizations. CTI A- funded research is conducted t hrough
cont ract s to independent invest igat ors. The init ial research will include
both laborat ory studies and studies of wireless phone users. The CRADA
will also include a broad assessm ent of addit ional research needs in t he
cont ext of t he lat est research developm ent s around t he world.
W ha t st eps can I ta k e t o reduce m y e x posure t o r a dio freque ncy
ene r gy fr om m y w ireless phone?
I f t here is a risk from these products - 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 st eps t o m inim ize
your exposure t o radio frequency energy ( RF) . Since t im e is a key fact or
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.
z I f you m ust conduct extended conversat ions by wireless phone
every day, you could place m ore dist ance bet ween your body and
the source of t he RF, since the exposure level drops off
dram at ically wit h 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 connected t o a rem ot e 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 t hese
products, 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 children using w ir e le ss phones?
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 steps to
lower exposure t o radio frequency energy ( RF) , t he m easures described
above would apply to children and teenagers using wireless phones.
Reducing the tim e of wireless phone use and increasing t he distance
bet ween t he user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure.
Som e groups sponsored by ot her 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 leaflet s cont aining such
a recom m endat ion in Decem ber 2000. They noted t hat no evidence exist s
that using a wireless phone causes brain t um ors or ot her ill effect s. Their
recom m endation to lim it wireless phone use by children was strictly
precaut ionary; it was not based on scient ific evidence t hat any health
hazard exist s.
Do ha nds- free k it s for w ir ele ss phones re duce risk s from ex posur e
t o RF em issions?
Since t here are no known risks from exposure to RF em issions from
wireless phones, t here is no reason to 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 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 the phone is m ount ed
against t he waist or ot her part of t he body during use, then t hat part of
the body will absorb m ore RF energy. Wireless phones m arketed in the
U.S. are required t o m eet safet y requirem ents 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 ir e less phone acce ssor ie s t ha t cla im t o shield t he he a d from
RF r a diat ion w ork ?
Since t here are no known risks from exposure to RF em issions from
wireless phones, t here is no reason to believe t hat accessories t hat claim
to shield t he head from those em issions reduce risks. Som e products t hat
claim t o shield the user from RF absorption use special phone cases, while
others involve nothing m ore t han a m et allic accessory at tached t o the
phone. Studies have shown that t hese products generally do not work as
advertised. Unlike hand- free kits, t hese so- called shields m ay interfere
with proper operation of the phone. The phone m ay be forced t o boost its
power t o com pensat e, leading t o an increase in RF absorpt ion. I n
February 2002, t he Federal t rade Com m ission ( FTC) charged t wo
com panies t hat sold devices t hat claim ed t o protect wireless phone users
from radiat ion with m aking false and unsubst ant iated claim s. According t o
FTC, these defendant s lacked a reasonable basis t o substant iate their
claim .
W ha t a bout w ir e le ss phone int erference w it h m edica l equipm ent ?
Radio frequency energy ( RF) from wireless phones can interact wit h som e
elect ronic devices. For t his reason, FDA helped develop a detailed t est
m et hod to m easure elect rom agnetic interference ( EMI ) of im plant ed
cardiac pacem akers and defibrillat ors from wireless t elephones. This test
m et hod is now part of a st andard sponsored by t he Association for the
Advancem ent of Medical inst rum entation ( AAMI ) . The final draft , a j oint
effort by FDA, m edical device m anufact urers, and m any other groups,
was com plet ed in lat e 2000. This standard will allow m anufact urers t o
ensure that cardiac pacem akers and defibrillators are safe from wireless
phone EMI . FDA has test ed wireless phones and helped develop a
volunt ary standard sponsored by t he I nstitute of Elect rical and Elect ronic
Engineers (I EEE). This standard specifies t est m et hods and perform ance
requirem ent s for hearing aids and wireless phones so t hat no int erference
occurs when a person uses a com patible phone and a com pat ible hearing
aid at t he sam e t im e. This standard was approved by t he I EEE in 2000.
FDA cont inues to m onitor t he use of wireless phones for possible
int eract ions wit h other m edical devices. Should harm ful int erference be
found t o occur, FDA will conduct t esting t o assess t he int erference and
work t o resolve t he problem .

Roa d Sa fet 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 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 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, t hese feat ures help you to place your
call wit hout t aking your att 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 t o your wireless phone
with 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 the call in heavy t raffic or hazardous weather
condit ions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice and even heavy t raffic can be
hazardous.
5. Do not take not es or look up phone num bers while driving. Jot t ing
down a to do list or flipping t hrough your address book t akes
at tent ion away from your prim ary responsibilit y, driving safely.
6. Dial sensibly and assess t he 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 stationary. 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 cont inue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or em ot ional conversat ions t hat m ay be
dist ract ing. Make people you are talking wit h aware you are driving
and suspend conversat ions t hat have t he potent ial to divert your
at tent ion from t he road.
8. Use your wireless phone t o call for help. Dial 9- 1- 1 or ot her local
em ergency num ber in the 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 to help others 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 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 traffic signal, a m inor
traffic accident where no one appears inj ured, or a vehicle you
know t o be stolen, call roadside assistance or ot her special non-
em ergency num ber.
The w ir e le ss indust ry rem inds you t o use your phone sa fely w hen

Ba t t e r y Standby and 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 perat ure, feat ures
selected, frequency of calls, and voice, data, and other application usage
patterns.
Ba t t e r y Pr e ca ut ions
z Never use any charger or batt 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 network's base st ation, it uses less
power; t alk and standby t im e are greatly affect ed by t he signal
strengt h on t he cellular network and t he param et ers set by t he
network operat or.
z Batt ery charging t im e depends on t he rem aining bat tery charge
and the type of battery and charger used. The batt ery can be
charged and discharged hundreds of t im es, but it will gradually
wear out . When the operation tim e ( t alk t im e and st andby t im e) is
not iceably short er t han norm al, it is t im e t o buy a new batt ery.
z I f left unused, a fully charged batt ery will discharge itself over t im e.

lifet im e of the batt ery. Always t ry t o keep t he battery at room
tem perat ure. A phone wit h a hot or cold batt ery m ay t em porarily
not work, even when t he batt ery is fully charged. Li- ion batteries
are particularly affected by t em perat ures 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
connection bet ween the + and - t erm inals of t he batt ery ( m etal
strips on t he batt ery) , for exam ple when you carry a spare battery
in a pocket or bag. Short - circuit ing t he t erm inals m ay dam age t he
battery or t he obj ect causing t he short -circuiting.
z Dispose of used batt eries in accordance wit h local regulat ions. I n
som e areas, t he disposal of bat teries in household or business
trash m ay be prohibit ed. For safe disposal opt ions for Li- I on
