Table of ContentsFCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the
United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an
updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters.
Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by
both U.S. and international standards bodies. The design of this phone
complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the
phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations.
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna
comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact
your local dealer for replacement antenna.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations using the
optional belt-clip/holster placed 0.8 inches (2.1cm) from the body.
To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation
distance of 0.8 inches (2.1cm) must be maintained between the users
body and the phone, including the antenna, whether extended or retract-
ed. Third-party belt-clips, holsters and similar accessories used by this
device must meet the separation distance requirement of 0.8 inches (2.1cm)
from the body and should not contain metallic componants. Body-worn
accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply with
FCC RF exposure limits and should be avoided.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion standard
battery.
Additional batteries are available for purchase (ask your
SAMSUNG dealer for further details):
Precautions When Using Batteries
• Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any
way.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• If you use the phone near the network’s base station, it
uses less power; talk and standby times are greatly affect-
ed by the signal strength on the cellular network and the
parameters set by the network operator.
• Battery charging times depend on the remaining battery
charge and the type of battery and charger used. The bat-
tery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but
it will gradually wear out. When the operation time (talk
time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it
is time to buy a new battery.
• If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself
over time.
• Use only Samsung-approved batteries and recharge your
battery only with Samsung-approved chargers. When a
charger is not in use, disconnect it from the power source.
Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for more
than a week, since overcharging may shorten its life.
• Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity of
your battery: it may require cooling or warming first.
• Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a
car in summer or winter conditions, as you will reduce the
capacity and life-time of the battery. Always try to keep
the battery at room temperature. A phone with a hot or
cold battery may temporarily not work, even when the bat-
tery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly
affected by temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).
• Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short circuiting
can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip or pen) causes
a direct connection between the + and - terminals of the
battery (metal strips on the back of the battery), for exam-
ple when you carry a spare battery in a pocket or bag.
Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or
the object causing the short-circuit.
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regula-
tions. Always recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.

Safety Information
Road Safety
• Remember, road safety always comes first!
• Do not use a hand-held phone while driving a vehicle.
Always park the vehicle before having a conversation.
• Make sure that the phone is stored safely and will not fall
or be broken in the event of a collision or emergency stop.
• The use of an alert device to operate a vehicle’s lights or
horn on public roads is not permitted.
• Only qualified personnel should install or service the phone
in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be danger-
ous and may invalidate any warranty applicable to the unit.
• Electronic fuel injection, anti-skid braking, electronic cruise
control or any other electronic systems may malfunction
due to the lack of protection from radio signals. Check
regularly that all cellular phone equipment in your vehicle
is mounted and operating correctly.
Operating Environment
• Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any
area and always switch off your phone whenever it is for-
bidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or dan-
ger (in a hospital for example).

Care and Maintenance
Your phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship
and should be treated with care. The suggestions below will
help you fulfill the warranty obligations and enjoy this product
for many years.
• Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the
reach of small children.
• Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids con-
taining minerals will corrode the electronic circuits.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas as its
components may be damaged.
• Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can
shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries and
warp or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone
warms up (to its normal temperature), moisture can form
inside the phone, which may damage the electronic cir-
cuits.
• Do not attempt to open the phone. Non-expert handling of
the phone may damage it.
• Do not drop or knock the phone. Rough handling may
damage the internal circuits.
• Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including
cellular phones, may interfere with inadequately protected
medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer
of the medical device if you have any questions. Other
electronic equipment may also be subject to interference.
• As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, you are
advised that for satisfactory operations and personal
safety, the equipment should only be used in the normal
operating position.
• Always switch off the phone when at a refuelling point
(service station). You are reminded of the need to observe
restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots
(fuel storage and distribution areas), chemical plants or
where blasting operations are in progress.
• Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive
materials in the same compartment as the phone, its parts
or accessories.
• Switch off your cellular phone when in an aircraft. The use
of cellular phones in an aircraft is illegal and may be
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft or disrupt the
cellular network. Failure to observe these instructions may
lead to the suspension or denial of cellular telephone ser-
vices to the offender, legal action or both.

Glossary of Terms
70 Safety Information
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong
detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it with a soft cloth
slightly dampened in mild, soapy water.
• If the phone or any of its accessories are not working
properly, take them to your nearest qualified service centre.
The personnel there will assist you, and if necessary,
arrange for the phone to be repaired.
Emergency Calls
Important!This phone, like any cellular phone, uses radio
signals, cellular and landline networks, as well
as user-programmed functions that cannot
guarantee connection in all conditions.
Therefore, you should never rely solely on any
cellular phone for essential communications
(medical emergencies for example).
Remember, to make or receive any calls, the phone must be
switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular
signal strength.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular phone
networks or when certain network services and/or phone
features are in use. Check with local cellular service
providers.
Glossary of Terms
Airtime - Actual time spent talking on the wireless phone.
Most carriers bill customers based on how many
minutes of airtime they use each month.
Antenna - A device for transmitting or receiving signals. The
size and shape of antennas is determined, in part,
by the frequency of the signal they receive.
Wireless phones and the base station must have
antennas.
Base Station - The fixed radio transmitter/receiver that
maintains communications with mobile radio
telephones within a given area. (Typically
called a cell or cell site)
CDMA - (Code Division Multiple Access) A spread-spectrum
approach to digital transmission. With CDMA, each
conversion is digitized and then tagged with a code.
The mobile phone deciphers only a particular code to
pick the right conversation off the air. The transmit-
ted signal is just above noise level across the avail-
able bandwidth.
Channel - Communications signals transmit along paths
called channels.
Codec - Compression & Decompression.
Deactivation - The process of rendering a wireless phone
inactive.
DTMF - (Dual-tone Modulated Frequency ) You send DTMF
signals when you enter numbers by pressing the digit
keys.

EVRC - (Enhanced Variable Rate Codec) EVRC is a new global
standard for compressing and decompressing voice
signals. EVRC uses a lower bit rate (the number of bits
sent per second) than existing CDMA vocoders, while
providing significant improvements in voice quality.
This technology enables your phone to provide superb
voice quality while benefiting from the ability to
process more cellular voice calls using less bandwidth
than the voice codecs in CDMA networks today.
Frequency - A measure based on time, as one or more waves
per second, in an electrical or light wave infor-
mation signal. A signal’s frequency is stated in
cycles-per-second or Hertz (Hz).
Hands-Free - A feature that permits a driver to use a wire-
less phone without lifting or holding the
handset - an important safety feature for
automobiles, tractors and most other motorized
vehicles.
LCD - (Liquid Crystal Display) Commonly used to refer to the
screen display on the wireless phone.
LED - (Light Emitting Diode) Commonly used to refer to a
small light on the wireless phone or on the Desktop
Charger. The LED lights on the phone to indicate an
incoming call. The lights on the charger indicate that
battery charging is taking place.
Prepend - The addition of a prefix, such as an area code, to a
phone number.
RF - Radio Frequency
Roaming - The ability to use a wireless phone to make and
receive calls in places outside of the home service
area.
Service Charge - The amount paid each month to receive
