Health and Safety
Information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)
Signals
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted
levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on the safety standards that
were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and through
evaluation of scientific studies.
The standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless phones
employs a unit of measurement known as Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit set by the
FCC is 1.6W/kg
*
.
* In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg)
averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account
for any variations in measurements.
Health and Safety Information
96
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating
positions specified by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in
all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level,
the actual SAR level of the phone while operating
can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to operate at
multiple power levels so as to use only the power
required to reach the network. In general, the
closer you are to a wireless base station antenna,
the lower the power output of the phone.
Before a new model phone is available for sale to
the public, it must be tested and certified to the
FCC that it does not exceed the limit established
by the government-adopted requirement for safe
exposure. The tests are performed in positions
and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the
body) as required by the FCC for each model.
While there may be differences between the SAR
levels of various phones and at various positions,
they all meet the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization
for this model phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this
model phone is on file with the FCC and can be
found under the Display Grant section of http://
www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID
printed in the label on the phone.
FCC certification information for this model phone
is attached separation paper.
Health and Safety Information
97
For Body 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. 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.

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
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.
Health and Safety Information
99
• 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, make sure that you are
following the special regulations in a given area or
country.
Health and Safety Information
100
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 are 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.
Health and Safety Information
101
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
minimise 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.
Health and Safety Information
102
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 Envirionments
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.
Health and Safety Information
103
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 .
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.
Health and Safety Information
104
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.
Health and Safety Information
105

Glossary
To help you understand the main technical terms
and abbreviations used in this booklet, and to take
full advantage of the features of your mobile
phone, here are a few definitions:
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 conversation 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.
Glossary
108
Channel
Communications signals transmit along paths
called channels.
Codec
Compression & Decompression.
Deactivation
The process of rendering a wireless phone
inactive.
DTMF (Dual-tone Multi-Frequency )

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).
