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 turn t he volum e down before plugging the earphones into an audio source and
use only t he m inim um volum e setting 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

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.

Ex posu r e t o Ra dio Fre que ncy ( RF) Signals
Cert ificat ion I nfor m at ion ( SAR)
Your wireless phone is a radio t ransm itt er 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 unicat ions Com m ission ( FCC) of t he 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
Radiation Protect ion and Measurem ent ( NCRP) and t he I nstitut e of
Elect rical and Elect ronics Engineers ( I EEE) . I n both cases, the
recom m endations were developed by scient ific and engineering experts
drawn from indust ry, governm ent, and academ ia after ext ensive reviews
of t he scientific literature related 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 the Specific Absorpt ion Rat e ( SAR). The
SAR is a m easure of t he rate of absorpt ion of RF energy by the hum an
body expressed in units of watt s per kilogram ( W/ kg) . The FCC requires
wireless phones to com ply wit h a safety lim it of 1.6 watt s per kilogram
( 1.6 W/ kg) . The FCC exposure lim it incorporates a substant ial m argin of
safet y t o give additional protect ion t o t he public and to account for any
variat ions in m easurem ent s.
SAR test s are conduct ed using standard operating posit ions accepted by
the FCC with t he phone t ransm itt ing at its highest certified power level in
all t est ed frequency bands. Although t he SAR is det erm ined at t he highest
cert ified power level, t he 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 ultiple power levels so as to use only t he power
required t o reach the network. I n general, the closer you are t o a wireless
base station 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 to t he FCC that it does not exceed the exposure lim it
est ablished by t he FCC. Test s for each m odel phone are perform ed in
positions and locations ( e.g. at t he ear and worn on t he body) as required
by the FCC.
For body worn operation, t his m odel phone has been test ed and m eets
the FCC RF exposure guidelines whenused with a Sam sung accessory
designated for t his product or when used wit h an accessory t hat cont ains
no m etal and t hat posit ions t he handset a m inim um of 1.5 cm from t he
body.
Non- com pliance with the above rest rictions m ay result in violation of FCC
RF exposure guidelines.
SAR inform at ion on t his and ot her m odel phones can be viewed on- line at
www.fcc.gov/ oet/ fccid. This site uses t he phone FCC I D num ber,
A3LSCHI 909. Som etim es it m ay be necessary t o rem ove t he batt ery pack
to find t he num ber. Once you have t he FCC I D num ber for a particular
phone, follow t he 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. Additional product
specific SAR inform at ion can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/ cgb/ sar.
Consum er I nform at ion on W ir e le ss Phones
The U.S. Food and Drug Adm inistration ( 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 the
following inform ation:
W ha t k in ds of phone s are t he su bj e ct of t his upda t 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 t he user t o m easurable radio
frequency energy ( RF) because of t he short dist ance between the phone
and t he user's head. These RF exposures are lim ited by Federal
Com m unications Com m ission safet y guidelines that were developed wit h
the advice of FDA and other federal health and safet y agencies. When t he
phone is located at greater distances from t he user, t he exposure to 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 operate at far lower power levels, and t hus produce RF
exposures well within t he FCC's com pliance lim it s.
Do w irele ss phones pose a healt h hazard?
The available scient ific evidence does not show t hat any health problem s
are associated with using wireless phones. There is no proof, however,
that wireless phones are absolut ely safe. Wireless phones em it low levels
of radio frequency energy ( RF) in the m icrowave range while being used.
They also em it very low levels of RF when in t he stand- 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 effect s. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not
found any biological effect s. Som e studies have suggest ed t hat som e
biological effect s m ay occur, but such findings have not been confirm ed
by additional research. I n som e cases, other researchers have had
difficulty in reproducing t hose studies, or in determ ining the reasons for
inconsist ent results.
W ha t is FDA's role concerning t he sa fe t y of w ire le ss phones?
Under t he law, FDA does not review the safety of radiat ion- em itt ing
consum er products such as wireless phones before they can be sold, as it
does with new drugs or m edical devices. However, t he agency has
aut hority t o t ake act ion if wireless phones are shown t o em it radio
frequency energy ( RF) at a level t hat is hazardous t o t he user. I n such a
case, FDA could require the m anufact urers of w ireless phones t o notify
users of t he health hazard and t o repair, replace or recall t he phones so
that t he hazard no longer exist s.
Alt hough t he exist ing scient ific data do not j ust ify FDA regulat ory act ions,
FDA has urged the wireless phone industry t o t ake a num ber of st eps,
including the following:
z “ Support needed research int o possible biological effect s of RF of
the type em itted by wireless phones;
z “ Design wireless phones in a way t hat m inim izes any RF exposure
to t he user t hat is not necessary for device funct ion; and
z “ Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with t he best
possible inform ation 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 responsibility for different aspect s of RF safet y t o ensure coordinat ed
effort s at t he federal level. The following agencies belong t o t his working
group:
z “ National I nstitute for Occupational Safet y and Health
z “ Environm ental Protect ion Agency
z “ Federal Com m unicat ions Com m ission
z “ Occupational Safety and Health Adm inist ration
z “ National Telecom m unicat ions and I nform at ion Adm inistration
The National I nstitutes of Health part icipat es in som e int eragency working
group act ivities, as well.
FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones wit h t he Federal
Com m unications Com m ission ( FCC). All phones t hat 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 health agencies for safety quest ions about
wireless phones.
FCC also regulates t he base stat ions t hat t he wireless phone networks
rely upon. While t hese base st ations operate at higher power t han do the
wireless phones them selves, t he RF exposures t hat people get from t hese
base stations are t ypically t housands of tim es lower t han t hose t hey can
get from wireless phones. Base stations are thus not t he prim ary subj ect
of t he safety quest ions discussed in t his docum ent .
W ha t a r e t he result s of t he resea r ch done alrea dy?
The research done t hus far has produced conflict ing results, and m any
studies have suffered from flaws in their research m et hods. Anim al
experim ents invest igating t he effect s of radio frequency energy ( RF)
exposures charact erist ic of wireless phones have yielded conflict ing
results t hat oft en cannot be repeated in other laboratories. A few anim al
studies, however, have suggest ed t hat low levels of RF could accelerate
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 t hat had
been genet ically engineered or t reated with cancer- causing chem icals so
as to be pre-disposed to develop cancer in absence of RF exposure. Ot her
studies exposed t he anim als t o RF for up t o 22 hours per day. These
conditions are not sim ilar t o t he conditions under which people use
wireless phones, so we don't know with cert ainty what t he results of such
studies m ean for hum an health.
Three large epidem iology st udies have been published since Decem ber
2000. Between t hem , t he st udies invest igated any possible association
bet ween the use of wireless phones and prim ary brain cancer, gliom a,
m eningiom a, or acoust ic neurom a, t um ors of the brain or salivary gland,
leukem ia, or other cancers. None of t he studies dem onst rat ed t he
existence of any harm ful health effect s from wireless phones RF
exposures. However, none of t he st udies can answer quest ions about
long- term exposures, since the average period of phone use in t hese
studies was around three years.
W ha t resea r ch is needed t o decide w het her RF ex posure from
w ir e le ss phone s poses a healt h r isk?
A com binat ion of laboratory studies and epidem iological studies of people
act ually using wireless phones would provide som e of t he data that are
needed. Lifetim e anim al exposure studies could be com pleted 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 exist s.
Epidem iological st udies can provide data t hat 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 healt h effect s, such as cancer. This is
because the int erval between t he t im e of exposure to a cancer- causing
agent and t he tim e tum ors develop - if t hey do - m ay be m any, m any
years. The int erpretation of epidem iological st udies is ham pered by
difficulties in m easuring actual RF exposure during day- t o- day use of
wireless phones. Many factors affect t his m easurem ent , such as t he angle
at which t he phone is held, or which m odel of phone is used.
W ha t is FDA doing t o find out m ore a bout t he possible hea lt h
effect s of w ir e less phone RF?
FDA is working with t he U.S. National Toxicology Program and with
groups of invest igators around t he world t o ensure that high priorit y
anim al studies are conduct ed t o address im port ant questions about t he
effect s of exposure to radio frequency energy ( RF).
FDA has been a leading part icipant in t he World Healt h Organizat ion
international Elect rom agnetic Fields ( EMF) Project 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 the world. The Proj ect has also helped
develop a series of public inform ation docum ent s on EMF issues.
FDA and Cellular Telecom m unicat ions & I nt ernet Association ( 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 , obtaining input from expert s in governm ent , industry, and
academ ic organizations. CTI A- funded research is conducted t hrough
cont ract s t o independent invest igators. The initial research will include
both laboratory st udies and studies of wireless phone users. The CRADA
will also include a broad assessm ent of additional research needs in t he
cont ext of t he lat est research developm ent s around the world.
W ha t steps ca n I t ake t o reduce m y exposure t o ra dio fr e que ncy
ene r gy fr om m y w ire le ss phone?
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 t ake 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 factor
in how m uch exposure a person receives, reducing the am ount of tim 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 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 ote ant enna.
Again, t he scient ific data do not dem onst rate t hat 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 t hose described above t o reduce
your RF exposure from wireless phone use.
W ha t a bout children using w ir e le ss phones?
The scient ific evidence does not show a danger t o 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 teenagers using wireless phones.
Reducing t he tim e of wireless phone use and increasing t he dist ance
bet ween the user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure.
Som e groups sponsored by other national governm ent s have advised t hat
children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For exam ple,
the governm ent in t he United Kingdom dist ribut ed leaflet s cont aining such
a recom m endation in Decem ber 2000. They noted t hat no evidence exists
that using a wireless phone causes brain tum ors or ot her ill effect s. Their
recom m endation to lim it wireless phone use by children was st rict ly
precaut ionary; it was not based on scient ific evidence t hat any health
hazard exists.
Do hands- free k it s for w ire le ss phones r e duce r isks fr om 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 that hands- free kits reduce
risks. Hands-free kit s can be used with wireless phones for convenience
and com fort . These system s reduce t he absorpt ion of RF energy in t he
head because t he phone, which is t he source of the RF em issions, will not
be placed against t he head. On t he other hand, if the phone is m ount ed
against t he waist or other part of t he body during use, t hen 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 t he head or against t he body. Eit her configuration should
result in com pliance wit h t he safet y lim it.
Do w irele ss phone acce ssor ie s tha t cla im t o shield t he he a d from
RF ra dia t ion w ork ?
Since there are no known risks from exposure t o RF em issions from
wireless phones, t here is no reason t o believe that accessories t hat claim
to shield t he head from t hose em issions reduce risks. Som e products t hat
claim t o shield t he user from RF absorpt ion use special phone cases, while
others involve not hing m ore t han a m etallic accessory att ached to t he
phone. Studies have shown t hat t hese products generally do not work as
advert ised. Unlike “ hand- free” kit s, these so-called “ shields” m ay int erfere
with proper operat ion of t he phone. The phone m ay be forced to boost its
power t o com pensat e, leading to 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 t o protect wireless phone users
from radiat ion with m aking false and unsubst ant iated claim s. According t o
FTC, t hese defendant s lacked a reasonable basis t o subst ant iat e their
claim .
W ha t a bout w ir e less phone int e r fe r e nce w ith m edica l equipm e nt ?
Radio frequency energy ( RF) from wireless phones can interact with som e
elect ronic devices. For t his reason, FDA helped develop a det ailed test
m et hod t o m easure elect rom agnetic int erference ( EMI ) of im plant ed
cardiac pacem akers and defibrillators from wireless t elephones. This test
m et hod is now part of a st andard sponsored by t he Association for t he
Advancem ent of Medical inst rum ent ation ( AAMI ) . The final draft , a j oint
effort by FDA, m edical device m anufact urers, and m any other groups,
was com pleted in late 2000. This standard will allow m anufact urers t o
ensure that cardiac pacem akers and defibrillators are safe from wireless
phone EMI . FDA has test ed wireless phones and helped develop a
volunt ary standard sponsored by the I nstitute of Elect rical and Elect ronic
Engineers ( I EEE) . This st andard specifies t est m ethods and perform ance
requirem ent s for hearing aids and wireless phones so t hat no int erference
occurs when a person uses a com patible phone and a com patible hearing
aid at t he sam e t im e. This standard was approved by t he I EEE in 2000.
FDA cont inues t o m onitor t he use of wireless phones for possible
interactions with other m edical devices. Should harm ful int erference be
found to occur, FDA will conduct test ing t o assess t he int erference and
work t o resolve t he problem .

Roa d Safet y
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability t o com m unicate by
voice, alm ost anywhere, anyt im e. But an im portant 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 t o know your wireless phone and its feat ures, such as speed
dial and redial. I f available, t hese features help you t o place your
call without taking your att ent ion off t he road.
2. When available, use a hands- free device. I f possible, add an
additional 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. Position your wireless phone wit hin easy reach. Be able t o access
your wireless phone wit hout rem oving your eyes from t he 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 with know you are driving; if
necessary, suspend t he call in heavy t raffic or hazardous weather
conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice and even heavy t raffic can be
hazardous.
5. Do not t ake not es or look up phone num bers while driving. Jot t ing
down a “ t o do” list or flipping t hrough your address book t akes
at tent ion away from your prim ary responsibility, driving safely.
6. Dial sensibly and assess t he traffic; if possible, place calls when
you are not m oving or before pulling int o t raffic. Try to plan calls
when your car will be stationary. 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 otional conversations t hat m ay be
dist ract ing. Make people you are talking wit h aware you are driving
and suspend conversat ions t hat have t he potent ial to divert your
at tent 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 t o help others 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 ot her local em ergency
num ber, as you would want others t o do for you.
10. Call roadside assist ance or a special non- em ergency wireless
assist ance num ber when necessary. I f you see a broken- down
vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a m inor
traffic accident where no one appears inj ured, or a vehicle you
know t o be stolen, call roadside assistance or other special non-
em ergency num ber.
“The w ir eless in dust ry r e m inds you t o use your phone safely w hen
driving.”
