FCC 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 with the back of the phone kept 1.5 cm. from the body. To
maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use only belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that
maintain a 1.5 cm. separation distance between the user’s body and the back of the phone, including the antenna,
whether extended or retracted. The use of belt-clips, holsters and similar accessories should not contain metallic
components in its assembly. The use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with
FCC RF exposure requirements, and should be avoided.

Getting Started
Using a Battery
Your Samsung phone comes packaged with a partially
charged, rechargeable Li-ion battery.
Installing the Battery
1. Place the battery on the phone so that the tab at
the bottom of the battery fits into the
corresponding slot at the bottom of the phone.
Removing the Battery
1. If necessary, switch off the phone by holding
down until the power-off animation appears.
2. Push up and hold the catch above the battery and
lift the battery away.
Charging the Battery
A desktop charger is provided with your phone. It
allows you to charge your phone’s battery from any AC
standard wall outlet.
Note: You must fully charge the battery before using
the phone for the first time. The charger will
fully charge an “empty” standard battery in
approximately 4 hours.
The phone can be used while the battery is charging,
but this increases time it will take to charge your
battery. To get the quickest charge for any battery, turn
the phone off.
2. Push the battery down until it snaps into place.
Make sure that the battery is properly installed
before switching the phone on.

3. The color indication of the LEDs on the charger is
as listed below:
• Red: the battery is being charged.
• Green: the battery is fully charged.
• Yellow: the battery is not plugged in correctly or
operating at a too high or too low temperature.
Please check the charger and/or battery.
4. When charging is completed (the LED turns into
green), remove the battery or phone from the
charger and unplug the power cord of the charger
from the AC outlet.
Low Battery Indicator
You can easily tell if your battery needs to be
recharged by checking the Battery Strength icon ( )
at the top right corner of your phone’s display. The
presence of all three bars indicates a full charge, two
bars indicates a smaller charge, and one bar indicates
an even smaller charge. No bars (the battery icon is
empty) means that your battery need to be charged.
When the battery charge level gets low, the battery
sensor blinks an empty Battery Strength icon ( )
and sounds a beep. If the battery level gets too low,
the phone will turn off automatically. Unfortunately, if
this happens, you’ll lose whatever you are doing and
your phone call will cut off. Watch the Battery
Strength icon and make sure your battery is
adequately charged.
To charge the battery:
1. Plug the power cord of the desktop charger into a
standard AC outlet. When the power is connected
properly, the LEDs on the charger flicker briefly and
then turn off.
2. Place the battery into the compartment of the
charger. Select one of the following two options:
• Place the phone with the battery attached into
the front compartment. The left LED on the
charger glows red.
• Insert a battery alone, not attached to the phone,
into the rear compartment. The right LED on the
charger glows red.

is prohibited or when it may cause interference or
danger.

Health and Safety
Information
Precautions When Using Batteries
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion
standard battery.
• 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 time
are greatly affected by the signal strength on the
cellular network and the parameters set by the
network operator.
• Battery charging time depends on the remaining
battery charge and the type of battery and charger
used. The battery can be charged and discharged
hundreds of times, but it will gradually wear out.
When the operation time, including 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 battery 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
battery), for example 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
regulations. Always recycle. Do not dispose of
batteries in a fire.

Road Safety
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to
communicate by voice, almost anywhere, anytime. But
an important responsibility accompanies the benefits
of wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility.
When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of
a car, practice good common sense and remember the
following tips:
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features,
such as speed dial and redial. If available, these
features help you to place your call without taking
your attention off the road.
2. When available, use a hands-free device. If
possible, add an extra layer of convenience and
safety to your wireless phone with one of the many
hands-free accessories available today.
3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Be
able to access your wireless phone without
removing your eyes from the road. If you get an
incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your voice
mail answer it for you.
4. Let the person you are speaking with know you are
driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy
traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet,
snow, ice and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while
driving. Jotting down a To Do list or flipping through
your phonebook takes your attention away from your
primary responsibility, driving safely.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible,
place calls when you are not moving or before
pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car
will be stationary. If you need to make a call while
moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road
and your mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional
conversations that may be distracting. Make the
people with whom you are talking aware that you
are driving and suspend conversations that have the
potential to divert your attention from the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial the
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic
accident or medical emergencies. Remember, it is a
free call on your wireless phone!
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in
emergencies. If you see a car accident, crime in
progress or other serious emergency where lives are
in danger, call the emergency number, as you would
want others to do for you.

HHeeaalltthh aanndd SSaaffeettyy IInnffoorrmmaattiioonn
10. Call roadside assistance or a special non-
emergency wireless assistance number when
necessary. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing
no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor
traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a
vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside
assistance or any other special non-emergency
wireless number.
Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in
any area and always switch off your phone whenever
it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause
interference or danger.
When connecting the phone or any accessory to
another device, read its user’s guide for detailed safety
instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment,
users are advised that for the satisfactory operation of
the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is
recommended that the equipment should only be used
in the normal operating position (held to your ear with
the antenna pointing over your shoulder).
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from
radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded against the
RF signals from your wireless phone. Consult the
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
distance of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent
research and recommendations of Wireless Technology
Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should always keep the phone more than 15 cm (6
inches) from their pacemaker when the phone is
switched on;
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize potential interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, switch off your phone immediately.

Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you
may wish to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to
discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical devices, consult
the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information. Switch off your phone in health care
facilities when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities
may be using equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor
vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its
representative regarding your vehicle.
You should also consult the manufacturer of any
equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Switch off your phone in any facility where posted
notices require you to do so.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Switch off your phone when in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs
and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even
death.
Users are advised to switch off the phone while at a
refuelling point (service station). Users 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.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
often but not always clearly marked. They include
below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage
facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such
as propane or butane), areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal
powders, and any other area where you would
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

Emergency Calls
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using
radio signals, wireless and landline networks as well
as user-programmed functions, which cannot
guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore, you
should never rely solely on any wireless 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 signal strength. Emergency calls may not be
possible on all wireless phone networks or when
certain network services and/or phone features are in
use. Check with local service providers.
To make an emergency call:
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.
2. Key in the emergency number for your present
location. Emergency numbers vary by location.
3. Press the key.
If certain features are in use (call barring, for example),
you may first need to deactivate those features before
you can make an emergency call. Consult this
document and your local cellular service provider.
When making an emergency call, remember to give all
the necessary information as accurately as possible.
Remember that your phone may be the only means of
communication at the scene of an accident; do not cut
off the call until given permission to do so.
Other Important Safety Information
• Only qualified personnel should service the phone or
install the phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or
service may be dangerous and may invalidate any
warranty applicable to the device.
• Check regularly that all wireless phone equipment in
your vehicle is mounted and operating properly.
• Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or
explosive materials in the same compartment as the
phone, its parts or accessories.
• For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember
that an air bag inflates with great force. Do not
place objects, including both installed or portable
wireless equipment in the area over the air bag or in
the air bag deployment area. If wireless equipment
is improperly installed and the air bag inflates,
serious injury could result.
• Switch off your phone before boarding an aircraft.
The use of wireless phones in aircraft may be
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, and is
illegal.
• Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the
suspension or denial of telephone services to the
offender, or legal action, or both.

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 any warranty
obligations and allow you to enjoy this product for
many years.
• Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories
out of the reach of small children’s.
• Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and
liquids contain minerals that will corrode electronic
circuits.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas,
as its moving parts 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 operating
temperature, moisture can form inside the phone,
which may damage the phone’s electronic circuit
boards.
• Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough
handling can break internal circuit boards.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or
strong detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it with
a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-
water solution.
• Do not paint it. Paint can clog the device’s moving
parts and prevent proper operation.
• Use only the supplied or an approved replacement
antenna. Unauthorized antennas or modified
accessories may damage the phone and violate
regulations governing radio devices.
• If the phone, battery, charger or any accessory is
not working properly, take it to your nearest
qualified service facility. The personnel there will
assist you, and if necessary, arrange for service.

Glossary
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 transmitted
signal is just above noise level across the
available 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 information 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
wireless 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 wireless service.
Standby Time - The amount of time a fully charged
wireless portable or transportable
phone can be on and idle without
being in use. See also Talk Time.
Talk Time - The length of time a person can talk on a
portable or transportable wireless phone
without recharging the battery.
Vocoder - Voice Coder. A device used to convert
speech into digital signals.
