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 using
the optional belt-clip/holster placed 1.5cm from the
body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a
minimum separation distance of 1.5cm must be
maintained between the user’s body and the phone, including
the antenna, whether extended or retracted. The use of third-
party belt-clips/ holsters with no metallic components that
provide the minimum separation distance of 1.5cm
can be used to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements. The use
of non-tested accessories or other body-worn operations may
not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements and should be
avoided. Contact your local dealer for optional accessory items.
Vehicle Mounted External Antenna (optional, if
available.)
A minimum separation distance of 7.9 inches (20cm) must be
maintained Between a person and the vehicle mounted
external antenna to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC
website at www.fcc.gov.

Reference Information
Using the Batteries
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion
standard battery.
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 affected 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 battery 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.
132
RReeffeerreennccee IInnffoorrmmaattiioonn

RReeffeerreennccee IInnffoorrmmaattiioonn
• 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 back of 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.
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 dangerous 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 forbidden to use it, or when
it may cause interference or danger (in a hospital
for example).
• 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.
• The effect of the transmit/duty cycle on hearing
aids and pacemakers is being investigated, and
there is potential hazard associated with use
close to such personal medical electronic devices.
• 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
services to the offender, 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 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 containing 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 circuits.

• 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.
• 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
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).
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.
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 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.
Wireless - Radio-based Systems that allow
transmission of telephone or data signals
through the air without a physical
connection, such as a metal wire
(copper) or fiber optic cable.
