Protect batteries and chargers from damage Avoid exposing batteries to very cold or very hot temperatures (below 0° C/32° F or above 45° C/ 113° F). Extreme temperatures can reduce the charging capacity and life of your batteries. Prevent batteries from contacting metal objects, as this can create a connection between the + and - terminals of your batteries and lead to temporary or permanent battery damage. Never use a damaged charger or battery. Handle your phone carefully and sensibly Do not allow your phone to get wet—liquids can cause serious damage. Do not handle your phone with wet hands. Water damage to your phone can void your manufacturer’s warranty.  Avoid using or storing your phone in dusty, dirty areas to prevent damage to moving parts.  Your phone is a complex electronic device— protect it from impacts and rough handling to avoid serious damage.  Do not paint your phone, as paint can clog moving parts and prevent proper operation.  Avoid using the phone’s camera flash or light close to the eyes of children or animals.  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 problem 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  Avoid charging batteries for more than a week, as overcharging may shorten battery life.  Over time, unused batteries will discharge and must be recharged before use.  Disconnect chargers from power sources when not in use.  Use batteries only for their intended purpose. Handle SIM cards and memory cards with care  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.  Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity, and electrical noise from other devices.  Frequent writing and erasing will shorten the life span of memory cards.  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 Radio Fre quency ( RF) Signals Cert ificat ion I nfor m at ion ( SAR)
Your wireless phone is a radio transm it ter and receiver. I t is designed and m anufact ured not t o exceed the exposure lim it s for radio frequency ( RF) energy set by t he Federal Com m unications Com m ission ( FCC) of t he U.S. governm ent . These FCC exposure lim it s are derived from the recom m endat ions of t wo expert organizat ions, t he Nat ional Council on Radiat ion Protect ion and Measurem ent ( NCRP) and t he I nst it ute of Elect rical and Elect ronics Engineers ( I EEE) . I n bot h cases, the recom m endat ions were developed by scientific and engineering expert s drawn from indust ry, governm ent, and academ ia after extensive reviews of t he scientific literat ure relat ed to 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 Absorption 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 units of wat t s per kilogram ( W/ kg) . The FCC requires wireless phones t o com ply wit h 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 antial m argin of safet y t o give addit ional prot ect ion t o t he public and t o account for any variat ions in m easurem ents. SAR t est s are conduct ed using st andard operat ing positions accept ed by the FCC wit h t he phone t ransm itt ing at it s highest certified power level in all test ed frequency bands. Alt hough the SAR is det erm ined at the highest cert ified power level, the act ual SAR level of t he phone while operating can be well below t he m axim um value. This is because t he phone is designed t o operat e at m ult iple power levels so as t o 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 ation antenna, the lower the power out put. Before a new m odel phone is available for sale to 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. Test s for each m odel phone are perform ed in posit ions and locat ions (e.g. at the ear and worn on t he body) as required by t he FCC. For body worn operat ion, this m odel phone has been t est ed and m eet s the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used wit h a Sam sung accessory designat ed for t his product or when used wit h an accessory that 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 rict ions m ay result in violation of FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR inform at ion on t his and other m odel phones can be viewed on- line at ht t p: / / www.fcc.gov/ oet / ea/ fccid. This sit e uses t he phone FCC I D num ber, A3LSCHI 405. Som etim es it m ay be necessary t o rem ove t he bat tery pack to find t he num ber. Once you have the FCC I D num ber for a particular phone, follow the inst ruct ions on t he website and it should provide values for t ypical or m axim um SAR for a part icular phone. Addit ional product specific SAR inform at ion can also be obt ained at
ht t p: / / www.fcc.gov/ cgb/ sar. Consu m er I nfor m at ion on W ir e le ss Phone s The U.S. Food and Drug Adm inist rat ion (FDA) has published a series of Quest ions and Answers for consum ers relating t o radio frequency ( RF) exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publication includes t he following inform at ion: W hat k inds of phones a re t he subj ect of t his updat e? The t erm wireless phone refers here t o hand- held wireless phones wit h built- in antennas, oft en called “ cell,” “ m obile,” or “ PCS” phones. These types of wireless phones can expose the user to m easurable radio frequency energy ( RF) because of t he short dist ance bet ween t he phone and t he user's head. These RF exposures are lim it ed by Federal Com m unicat ions Com m ission safet y guidelines t hat were developed wit h the advice of FDA and other federal healt h and safet y agencies. When t he phone is locat ed at great er dist ances from t he user, the exposure t o RF is drast ically lower because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly wit h increasing distance from t he source. The so- called “ cordless phones,” which have a base unit connect ed t o the t elephone wiring in a house, typically operate at far lower power levels, and t hus produce RF exposures well wit hin the FCC's com pliance lim it s. Do w ir e less phones pose a healt h ha za r d? The available scient ific evidence does not show t hat any healt h problem s are associated 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 healt h 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 st udies of low level RF exposures have not found any biological effect s. Som e st udies have suggest ed t hat 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, other researchers have had difficult y in reproducing t hose st udies, or in det erm ining t he reasons for inconsist ent result s. W hat is FD A's role conce r n ing t he safet y of w ire less phones? Under t he law, FDA does not review t he safet y of radiat ion- em it ting consum er product s such as wireless phones before t hey can be sold, as it does with new drugs or m edical devices. However, the agency has aut horit y t o t ake act ion if wireless phones are shown to 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 health hazard and t o repair, replace or recall t he phones so that t he hazard no longer exists. Although the existing scientific dat a do not j ustify FDA regulat ory act ions, FDA has urged t he wireless phone indust ry t o t ake a num ber of steps,
including the following:  “ Support needed research int o possible biological effect s of RF of the type em it t ed by wireless phones;  “ Design wireless phones in a way that m inim izes any RF exposure to the user t hat is not necessary for device funct ion; and  “ 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 healt h. FDA belongs t o an interagency working group of t he federal agencies t hat have responsibilit y for different aspect s of RF safet y to ensure coordinat ed efforts at the federal level. The following agencies belong t o t his working group:  “ National I nst itut e for Occupat ional Safety and Healt h  “ Environm ental Prot ect ion Agency  “ Federal Com m unications Com m ission  “ Occupat ional Safet y and Health Adm inist rat ion  “ National Telecom m unicat ions and I nform at ion Adm inist rat ion The Nat ional I nstit ut es of Health part icipat es in som e interagency working group act ivities, as well. FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones wit h 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 t hat lim it RF exposure. FCC relies on FDA and other healt h agencies for safet y questions about wireless phones. FCC also regulates t he base st at ions that the wireless phone networks rely upon. While these base st at ions operat e at higher power t han do t he wireless phones t hem selves, t he RF exposures t hat people get from these base st ations are t ypically t housands of t im es lower than those t hey can get from wireless phones. Base st at ions are thus not t he prim ary subj ect of t he safet y quest ions discussed in t his docum ent. W hat a re t he result s of t he r e sea r ch done alre a dy? The research done t hus far has produced conflict ing result s, and m any studies have suffered from flaws in their research m et hods. Anim al experim ents investigat ing the effect s of radio frequency energy (RF) exposures characteristic of wireless phones have yielded conflict ing results t hat oft en cannot be repeat ed in ot her laborat ories. A few anim al studies, however, have suggest ed t hat low levels of RF could accelerat e the developm ent of cancer in laborat ory anim als. However, m any of t he studies that showed increased t um or developm ent used anim als t hat had been genet ically engineered or t reat ed with cancer-causing chem icals so as t o 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 to 22 hours per day. These condit ions are not sim ilar t o t he conditions under which people use wireless phones, so we don't know wit h certaint y what the result s of such studies m ean for hum an healt h.
Three large epidem iology studies have been published since Decem ber 2000. Bet ween t hem , the st udies invest igated 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 st udies dem onst rat ed t he exist ence of any harm ful healt h effect s from wireless phones RF exposures. However, none of t he st udies can answer quest ions about long- term exposures, since t he average period of phone use in t hese studies was around three years. W hat r e sea r ch is needed t o decide w he t her RF ex posure from w ireless phones pose s a healt h r isk ? A com binat ion of laborat ory st udies and epidem iological st udies of people actually using wireless phones would provide som e of t he dat a 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 to provide reliable proof of a cancer prom ot ing effect if one exists. Epidem iological st udies can provide dat a t hat is directly applicable t o hum an populat ions, but ten or m ore years' follow- up m ay be needed t o provide answers about som e healt h effect s, such as cancer. This is because t he interval between t he t im e of exposure to a cancer- causing agent and t he t im e t um ors develop - if t hey do - m ay be m any, m any years. The interpret at ion of epidem iological st udies 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 this m easurem ent , such as the angle at which t he phone is held, or which m odel of phone is used. W hat is FD A doing t o find out m or e a bout t he possible hea lt h effect s of w ire le ss phone RF? FDA is working wit h t he U.S. National Toxicology Program and wit h groups of invest igators around t he world t o ensure t hat high priorit y anim al st udies are conduct ed t o address im portant quest ions about t he effect s of exposure t o radio frequency energy (RF). FDA has been a leading participant in t he World Healt h Organization int ernat ional Elect rom agnet ic Fields ( EMF) Proj ect since it s inception in 1996. An influent ial result of this work has been t he developm ent of a det ailed agenda of research needs that has driven the est ablishm ent of new research program s around the 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 nternet Associat ion ( 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 expert s in governm ent , indust ry, and academ ic organizations. CTI A- funded research is conduct ed t hrough cont ract s to independent invest igat ors. The init ial research will include bot h laborat ory st udies and st udies 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 hat st eps ca n I t ak e t o re duce m y ex posure t o r adio freque ncy energy from m y w ir e le ss ph one? I f t here is a risk from t hese product s - 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 take 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.  “ 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 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 connect ed t o a rem ot e antenna. Again, t he scient ific dat a do not dem onst rat e that wireless phones are harm ful. But if you are concerned about t he RF exposure from t hese product s, you can use m easures like those described above t o reduce your RF exposure from wireless phone use. W hat a bout childre n using w irele ss ph ones? The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones, including children and t eenagers. I f you want t o t ake st eps 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 t im e of wireless phone use and increasing t he dist ance bet ween t he user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure. Som e groups sponsored by other nat ional governm ents have advised that children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For exam ple, the governm ent in t he Unit ed Kingdom dist ribut ed leaflet s containing such a recom m endat ion 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 endat ion to lim it wireless phone use by children was st rictly precaut ionary; it was not based on scientific evidence t hat any healt h hazard exist s. Do hands- free k it s for w ire le ss phone s reduce risk s from ex posure t o RF e m issions? Since t here are no known risks from exposure t o RF em issions from wireless phones, there is no reason t o believe that hands- free kit s reduce risks. Hands-free kit s can be used wit h wireless phones for convenience and com fort. These syst em s reduce t he absorption 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 the head. On the ot her hand, if t he phone is m ount ed against the waist or ot her part of the body during use, then that 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 safet y requirem ent s regardless of whet her t hey
are used against the 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 le ss phone a cce ssor ie s t hat claim t o shield t he he a d from RF ra dia t ion w or k? Since t here are no known risks from exposure t o RF em issions from wireless phones, there is no reason t o believe that accessories that claim to shield t he head from t hose em issions reduce risks. Som e product s that claim to shield the user from RF absorption use special phone cases, while ot hers involve not hing m ore t han a m et allic accessory at tached t o t he phone. St udies have shown t hat these product s generally do not work as advertised. Unlike “ hand- free” kits, these so- called “ shields” m ay interfere with proper operat ion of t he phone. The phone m ay be forced t o 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 that sold devices t hat claim ed t o prot ect wireless phone users from radiat ion with m aking false and unsubst antiat ed claim s. According to FTC, t hese defendant s lacked a reasonable basis to subst antiat e t heir claim . W hat a bout w ireless phone int erference w it h m edica l equipm ent ? Radio frequency energy ( RF) from wireless phones can int eract wit h som e elect ronic devices. For t his reason, FDA helped develop a det ailed t est m ethod t o m easure elect rom agnet ic int erference ( EMI ) of im planted cardiac pacem akers and defibrillat ors from wireless t elephones. This t est m ethod is now part of a st andard sponsored by t he Association for t he Advancem ent of Medical inst rum entat ion (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 st andard will allow m anufact urers t o ensure t hat cardiac pacem akers and defibrillat ors are safe from wireless phone EMI . FDA has t est ed wireless phones and helped develop a volunt ary standard sponsored by t he I nst it ute of Elect rical and Elect ronic Engineers (I EEE) . This st andard specifies t est m et hods and perform ance requirem ent s for hearing aids and wireless phones so that no interference occurs when a person uses a com pat ible phone and a com patible hearing aid at the sam e tim e. This st andard was approved by the I EEE in 2000. FDA cont inues to m onit or the use of wireless phones for possible int eractions wit h ot her m edical devices. Should harm ful interference be found to occur, FDA will conduct test ing t o assess t he interference and work to resolve t he problem .

But an im port ant 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 responsibilit y. 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 to 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 taking your att ention 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 t o your wireless phone with one of t he m any hands free accessories available t oday. 3. Posit ion your wireless phone wit hin easy reach. Be able t o access your wireless phone wit hout rem oving your eyes from the road. I f you get an incom ing call at an inconvenient tim e, let your voice m ail answer it for you. 4. Let the 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 t raffic can be hazardous. 5. Do not t ake notes or look up phone num bers while driving. Jot ting down a “ t o do” list or flipping t hrough your address book takes att ent 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 into t raffic. Try t o plan calls when your car will be st at ionary. I f you need t o m ake a call while m oving, dial only a few num bers, check the 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 conversat ions t hat have t he pot ent ial to divert your
att ent ion from t he road. 8. Use your wireless phone t o call for help. Dial 9- 1- 1 or other 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 t o help ot hers in em ergencies.
