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 t he earphones int o an audio source and
use only t he m inim um volum e set ting necessary t o hear your conversat 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
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
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.

rough handling to avoid serious damage.
z Do not paint your phone, as paint can clog moving parts and prevent proper
operation.
z Avoid using the phone’s camera flash or light close to the eyes of children or
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.
Health and safety information
Ex posure t o Ra dio Fr e quency ( RF) Signals
Cert ificat ion I nform at ion ( SAR)
Your wireless phone is a radio t ransm it t er and receiver. I t is designed and
m anufact ured not t o exceed t he exposure lim its for radio frequency ( RF)
energy set by t he Federal Com m unicat ions Com m ission ( FCC) of the U.S.
governm ent . These FCC exposure lim it s are derived from t he
recom m endations of t wo expert organizat ions, t he Nat ional Counsel on
Radiat ion Prot ection and Measurem ent ( NCRP) and t he I nstit ut e of
Electrical and Elect ronics Engineers ( I EEE) . I n bot h cases, t he
recom m endations were developed by scientific and engineering experts
drawn from indust ry, governm ent , and academ ia aft er extensive reviews
of the scientific lit erature relat ed 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 t he Specific Absorpt ion Rate (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 watt s per kilogram (W/ kg) . The FCC requires
wireless phones t o com ply with a safet y lim it of 1.6 watt s per kilogram
( 1.6 W/ kg) . The FCC exposure lim it incorporat es a substantial m argin of
safety t o give addit ional protect ion t o t he public and t o account for any
variat ions in m easurem ent s.
SAR tests are conduct ed using standard operat ing posit ions accept ed by
the FCC wit h t he phone transm itt ing at it s highest cert ified power level in
all tested frequency bands. Although t he SAR is det erm ined at the highest
certified power level, t he actual SAR level of t he phone while operating
can be well below t he m axim um value. This is because the phone is
designed t o operat e at m ult iple power levels so as to 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 at ion ant enna, t he 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 certified t o t he FCC t hat it does not exceed t he exposure lim it
est ablished by t he FCC. Tests for each m odel phone are perform ed in
posit ions and locations ( e.g. at the ear and worn on t he body) as required
by the FCC.
For body worn operat ion, 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 with an accessory t hat cont ains
no m et al and t hat positions t he handset a m inim um of 1.0 cm from t he
body.
Non- com pliance wit h t he 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

Consum e r I nfor m at ion on W ir e less Phones
The U.S. Food and Drug Adm inist rat ion ( FDA) has published a series of
Questions and Answers for consum ers relating t o radio frequency ( RF)
exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publicat ion includes the
following inform ation:
W hat k inds of phone s a r e t he subj e ct of t his u pdat e?
The term 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 distance bet ween t he 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 wit h
the advice of FDA and ot her federal health and safet y agencies. When t he
phone is locat ed at greater distances from t he user, the exposure t o RF is
drast ically 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 t he telephone wiring in a house,
typically operat e at far lower power levels, and t hus produce RF
exposures well within the FCC's com pliance lim it s.
Do w irele ss phone s pose a healt h ha zard?
The available scient ific evidence does not show t hat any healt h problem s
are associat ed wit h using wireless phones. There is no proof, however,
that wireless phones are absolutely 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 heating t issue) , exposure
to low level RF t hat does not produce heat ing effect s causes no known
adverse health effects. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not
found any biological effects. 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, ot her researchers have had
difficult y in reproducing t hose st udies, or in det erm ining t he reasons for
inconsistent result s.
W hat is FDA's r ole concerning t he sa fet y of w irele ss phones?
Under t he law, FDA does not review the safety of radiat ion-em itt 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
authorit y t o t ake action 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 anufacturers of wireless phones t o not ify
users of t he healt h hazard and to repair, replace or recall t he phones so
that t he hazard no longer exists.
Alt hough t he exist ing scient ific dat a do not justify FDA regulat ory act ions,
FDA has urged t he wireless phone indust ry to 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 itt ed by wireless phones;
z “ Design wireless phones in a way t hat m inim izes any RF exposure
to t he user that is not necessary for device funct ion; and
z “ Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones wit h t he best
possible inform ation on possible effect s of wireless phone use on
hum an health.
FDA belongs t o an int eragency working group of t he federal agencies t hat
have responsibility for different aspect s of RF safet y t o ensure coordinat ed
efforts at t he federal level. The following agencies belong to t his working
group:
z “ Nat ional I nst it ut e for Occupat ional Safet y and Healt h
z “ Environm ent al Prot ect ion Agency
z “ Federal Com m unicat ions Com m ission
z “ Occupat ional Safet y and Healt h Adm inistrat ion
z “ Nat ional Telecom m unicat ions and I nform at ion Adm inist rat ion
The Nat ional I nst it ut es of Healt h participat es in som e int eragency working
group act ivit ies, as well.
FDA shares regulat ory responsibilit ies for wireless phones wit h t he Federal
Com m unicat ions Com m ission ( FCC) . All phones that are sold in t he Unit ed
St ates m ust com ply wit h FCC safet y guidelines t hat lim it RF exposure.
FCC relies on FDA and ot her health agencies for safet y quest ions about
wireless phones.
FCC also regulat es t he base st at ions t hat t he wireless phone net works
rely upon. While these base st at ions operat e at higher power than do t he
wireless phones t hem selves, t he RF exposures t hat people get from these
base st at ions are t ypically t housands of tim es lower t han t hose t hey can
get from wireless phones. Base stat ions are t hus not the prim ary subj ect
of the safety questions discussed in t his docum ent .
W hat are t he result s of t he rese a r ch done already?
The research done t hus far has produced conflict ing results, and m any
studies have suffered from flaws in t heir research m et hods. Anim al
experim ent s investigat ing t he effect s of radio frequency energy ( RF)
exposures characteristic of wireless phones have yielded conflict ing
result s that oft en cannot be repeat ed in ot her laboratories. A few anim al
studies, however, have suggested t hat low levels of RF could accelerat e
the developm ent of cancer in laboratory anim als. However, m any of t he
studies t hat showed increased t um or developm ent used anim als that had
been genetically engineered or t reated wit h cancer-causing chem icals so
as t o be pre- disposed t o develop cancer in absence of RF exposure. Other
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 wit h cert aint y what the 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. Bet ween t hem , t he studies invest igat ed any possible associat ion
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 studies dem onst rated t he
exist ence of any harm ful healt h effect s from wireless phones RF
exposures. However, none of t he studies can answer questions about
long- t erm exposures, since the average period of phone use in t hese
studies was around t hree years.
W hat rese a r ch is needed t o decide w hether RF exposure fr om
w ir e less phones poses a healt h risk?
A com bination of laboratory st udies and epidem iological studies of people
act ually using wireless phones would provide som e of t he data that are
needed. Lifet im 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 studies can provide dat a that is direct ly applicable t o
hum an populat ions, 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 bet ween the t im e of exposure t o a cancer- causing
agent and t he tim e t um ors develop - if t hey do - m ay be m any, m any
years. The int erpret at ion of epidem iological studies is ham pered by
difficult ies in m easuring act ual RF exposure during day-t o- day use of
wireless phones. Many fact ors affect t his m easurem ent , such as the angle
at which the phone is held, or which m odel of phone is used.
W hat is FDA doing t o find out m or e a bout t he possible healt h
effect s of w irele ss ph one RF?
FDA is working with t he U.S. Nat ional Toxicology Program and wit h
groups of invest igators around t he world to ensure t hat high priorit y
anim al st udies are conducted t o address im portant quest ions about t he
effects of exposure t o radio frequency energy ( RF) .
FDA has been a leading part icipant in t he World Healt h Organizat ion
int ernat ional Elect rom agnet ic Fields ( EMF) Proj ect since it s incept ion 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 at ion docum ent s on EMF issues.
FDA and Cellular Telecom m unicat ions & I nt ernet Associat ion ( 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 organizat ions. CTI A-funded research is conducted t hrough
contract s t o independent invest igat ors. The init ial research will include
bot h laboratory st udies and studies of wireless phone users. The CRADA
will also include a broad assessm ent of addit ional research needs in t he
context of t he latest research developm ent s around the world.
W hat st eps ca n I t ak e t o reduce m y exposure t o ra dio fr e quency
energy from m y w ir e less phone?
I f t here is a risk from t hese 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 to radio frequency energy ( RF) . Since tim 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 t he exposure level drops off
dram atically wit h distance. 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 antenna.
Again, t he scient ific dat a do not dem onst rate t hat wireless phones are
harm ful. But if you are concerned about the RF exposure from t hese
product s, you can use m easures like t hose described above t o reduce
your RF exposure from wireless phone use.
W hat about children using w ir e less phone s?
The scient ific evidence does not show a danger t o users of wireless
phones, including children and teenagers. I f you want t o t ake steps 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 wireless phones.
Reducing t he 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 nat ional governm ents 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 ributed leaflet s cont aining such
a recom m endation in Decem ber 2000. They not ed t hat no evidence exists
that using a wireless phone causes brain t um ors or ot her ill effect s. Their
recom m endation t o lim it wireless phone use by children was st rictly
precaut ionary; it was not based on scient ific evidence t hat any healt h
hazard exist s.
Do ha nds- free k it s for w irele ss phones reduce r isk s from exposure
t o RF e m issions?
Since there are no known risks from exposure t o RF em issions from
wireless phones, t here is no reason t o believe t hat 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 the absorpt ion of RF energy in t he
head because t he phone, which is t he source of t he RF em issions, will not
be placed against t he head. On t he ot her hand, if the phone is m ounted
against t he waist or ot her part of t he body during use, t hen t hat part of
the body will absorb m ore RF energy. Wireless phones m arket ed in t he
U.S. are required t o m eet safety requirem ents regardless of whet her t hey
are used against t he head or against t he body. Eit her configurat ion should
result in com pliance with t he safet y lim it .
Do w ireless phone a ccessorie s t hat cla im t o shie ld t he head from
RF ra diat ion w or k ?
Since there are no known risks from exposure t o RF em issions from
wireless phones, t here is no reason t o believe t hat 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 not hing m ore than a m et allic accessory att ached t o t he
phone. St udies have shown t hat t hese product s generally do not work as
advertised. Unlike “ hand- free” kit s, t hese so- called “ shields” m ay interfere
wit h proper operation of t he phone. The phone m ay be forced to boost it s
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 to prot ect wireless phone users
from radiation with m aking false and unsubstant iat ed claim s. According to
FTC, these defendants lacked a reasonable basis t o substantiat e their
claim .
W hat about w irele ss phone int erference w it h m e dica l equ ipm ent ?
Radio frequency energy ( RF) from wireless phones can int eract wit h som e
electronic devices. For t his reason, FDA helped develop a det ailed t est
m ethod t o m easure elect rom agnet ic interference ( EMI ) of im plant ed
cardiac pacem akers and defibrillat ors from wireless telephones. This t est
m ethod is now part of a st andard sponsored by t he Association for t he
Advancem ent of Medical instrum ent at ion ( AAMI ) . The final draft , a j oint
effort by FDA, m edical device m anufacturers, and m any ot her groups,
was com plet ed in late 2000. This st andard will allow m anufacturers t o
ensure t hat cardiac pacem akers and defibrillat ors are safe from wireless
phone EMI . FDA has test ed wireless phones and helped develop a
volunt ary st andard sponsored by t he I nstit ute of Elect rical and Elect ronic
Engineers ( I EEE) . This standard specifies t est m et hods and perform ance
requirem ents for hearing aids and wireless phones so that no int erference
occurs when a person uses a com pat ible phone and a com pat ible hearing
aid at t he 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 eractions with ot her m edical devices. Should harm ful int erference be
found t o occur, FDA will conduct t est ing to 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, anytim e. But an im port ant responsibility
accom panies t he benefits of wireless phones, one that every user m ust
uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibilit y. When using your
wireless phone behind t he wheel of a car, practice good com m on sense
and rem em ber t he following t ips:
1. Get t o know your wireless phone and it s feat ures, such as speed
dial and redial. I f available, t hese feat ures help you t o 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
addit ional layer of convenience and safet y to your wireless phone
wit h one of t he m any hands free accessories available t oday.
3. Position your wireless phone wit hin easy reach. Be able to access
your wireless phone wit hout 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 t raffic or hazardous weat her
condit ions. Rain, sleet , snow, ice and even heavy traffic can be
hazardous.
5. Do not t ake not es or look up phone num bers while driving. Jott ing
down a “ to do” list or flipping t hrough your address book takes
at t ent ion away from your prim ary responsibilit y, driving safely.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; 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 stat ionary. 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 st ressful or em ot ional conversat ions t hat m ay be
dist ract ing. Make people you are t alking with aware you are driving
and suspend conversations t hat have t he pot ential t o divert your
at t ent 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 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 to help ot hers in em ergencies. I f you see
an aut o accident , crim e in progress or ot her serious em ergency
where lives are in danger, call 9- 1- 1 or other local em ergency
num ber, as you would want ot hers t o do for you.

Ba t t ery St a ndby and Talk Tim e
St andby and t alk t im es will vary depending on phone usage patt erns and
condit ions. Batt ery power consum pt ion depends on fact ors such as
net work configurat ion, signal st rengt h, operat ing tem perat ure, feat ures
select ed, frequency of calls, and voice, data, and ot her application usage
pat t erns.
Ba t t ery Pr e ca utions
z Never use any charger or bat t ery t hat is dam aged in any way.
z Use t he bat t ery 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; talk and standby tim e are great ly affect ed by t he signal
strength on the cellular net work and t he param eters set by t he
net work operat or.
z Bat t ery charging t im e depends on t he rem aining bat t ery charge
and t he t ype of bat tery and charger used. The bat tery can be
charged and discharged hundreds of t im es, but it will gradually
wear out . When t he operat ion t im e ( t alk t im e and standby t im e) is
not iceably shorter 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.
z Use only Sam sung- approved bat teries and recharge your bat t ery
only with Sam sung- approved chargers. When a charger is not in

not work, even when t he bat t ery is fully charged. Li- ion bat t eries
are particularly affect ed by t em perat ures below 0 ° C ( 32 ° F) .
z Do not short- circuit t he batt ery. Accident al short- circuit ing can
occur when a m et allic obj ect ( coin, clip or pen) causes a direct
connection bet ween the + and - t erm inals of t he batt ery ( m et al
strips on t he bat t ery), for exam ple when you carry a spare bat t ery
in a pocket or bag. Short- circuit ing t he t erm inals m ay dam age t he
bat t ery or t he obj ect causing t he short - circuit ing.
z Dispose of used bat t eries in accordance with local regulations. I n
som e areas, t he disposal of bat t eries in household or business
trash m ay be prohibit ed. For safe disposal opt ions for Li- I on

Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications
technology capable of exchanging information over
a distance of about 10 m without requiring a physical
connection.
You do not need to line up the devices to beam information
with Bluetooth. If the devices are within range of one another,
you can exchange information between them even if they are
located in dierent rooms.
Samsung is not responsible for the loss, interception,
●
or misuse of data sent or received via the Bluetooth
wireless feature.
Always ensure that you share and receive data with
●
devices that are trusted and properly secured. If there
are obstacles between the devices, the operating
distance may be reduced.
Some devices, especially those that are not tested
●
or approved by Bluetooth SIG, may be incompatible
with your device.
