Health and safety information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)
Signals
Certification Information (SAR)
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the exposure limits for radio frequency
(RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) of the U.S. government.
These FCC exposure limits are derived from the
recommendations of two expert organizations,
the National Counsel on Radiation Protection
and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In
both cases, the recommendations were
developed by scientific and engineering experts
drawn from industry, government, and
academia after extensive reviews of the
scientific literature related to the biological
effects of RF energy.
The exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless
mobile phones employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR).
The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption
of RF energy by the human body expressed in
units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC
requires wireless phones to comply with a
safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/
kg). The FCC exposure limit incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection to the public and to account for any
variations in measurements.
SAR tests are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted 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.
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 exposure
limit established by the FCC. Tests for each
model phone are performed in positions and
locations (e.g. at the ear and worn on the body)
as required by the FCC.
The highest SAR values for this model phone as
reported to the FCC are:
GSM850: Head: 0.372 W/Kg, Body-worn:
0.370 W/Kg.
37
Health and safety information
PCS:Head: 0.453 W/Kg, Body-worn:
0.271 W/Kg.
For body worn operation, this model phone has
been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure
guidelines whenused with a Samsung accessory
designated for this product or when used with
an accessory that contains no metal and that
positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm
from the body.
Non-compliance with the above restrictions
may result in violation of FCC RF exposure
guidelines.
SAR information on this and other model
phones can be viewed on-line at www.fcc.gov/
oet/fccid. This site uses the phone FCC ID
number, A3LSGHD900i. Sometimes it may be
necessary to remove the battery pack to find
the number. Once you have the FCC ID number
38
for a particular phone, follow the instructions on
the website and it should provide values for
typical or maximum SAR for a particular phone.
Additional product specific SAR information can
also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/cgb/sar.
Consumer Information on Wireless
Phones
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
has published a series of Questions and
Answers for consumers relating to radio
frequency (RF) exposure from wireless phones.
The FDA publication includes the following
information:
What kinds of phones are the subject of
this update?
The term wireless phone refers here to handheld wireless phones with built-in antennas,
often called “cell,” “mobile,” or “PCS” phones.
These types of wireless phones can expose the
user to measurable radio frequency energy (RF)
because of the short distance between the
phone and the user's head. These RF exposures
are limited by Federal Communications
Commission safety guidelines that were
developed with the advice of FDA and other
federal health and safety agencies. When the
phone is located at greater distances from the
user, the exposure to RF is drastically lower
because a person's RF exposure decreases
rapidly with increasing distance from the
source. The so-called “cordless phones,” which
have a base unit connected to the telephone
wiring in a house, typically operate at far lower
power levels, and thus produce RF exposures
well within the FCC's compliance limits.
Do wireless phones pose a health
hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show
that any health problems are associated with
using wireless phones. There is no proof,
however, that wireless phones are absolutely
safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of radio
frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range
while being used. They also emit very low levels
of RF when in the stand-by mode. Whereas high
levels of RF can produce health effects (by
heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that
does not produce heating effects causes no
known adverse health effects. Many studies of
low level RF exposures have not found any
biological effects. Some studies have suggested
that some biological effects may occur, but such
findings have not been confirmed by additional
research. In some cases, other researchers
have had difficulty in reproducing those studies,
39
Health and safety information
or in determining the reasons for inconsistent
results.
What is FDA's role concerning the
safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety
of radiation-emitting consumer products such
as wireless phones before they can be sold, as
it does with new drugs or medical devices.
However, the agency has authority to take
action if wireless phones are shown to emit
radio frequency energy (RF) at a level that is
hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA
could require the manufacturers of wireless
phones to notify users of the health hazard and
to repair, replace or recall the phones so that
the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data do not
justify FDA regulatory actions, FDA has urged
40
the wireless phone industry to take a number of
steps, including the following:
• “Support needed research into possible
biological effects of RF of the type emitted
by wireless phones;
• “Design wireless phones in a way that
minimizes any RF exposure to the user that
is not necessary for device function; and
• “Cooperate in providing users of wireless
phones with the best possible information
on possible effects of wireless phone use on
human health.
FDA belongs to an interagency working group of
the federal agencies that have responsibility for
different aspects of RF safety to ensure
coordinated efforts at the federal level. The
following agencies belong to this working
group:
• “National Institute for Occupational Safety
and Health
•
•
•
“Environmental Protection Agency
“Federal Communications Commission
“Occupational Safety and Health
Administration
• “National Telecommunications and
Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in
some interagency working group activities, as
well.
FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for
wireless phones with the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). All phones
that are sold in the United States must comply
with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF
exposure. FCC relies on FDA and other health
agencies for safety questions about wireless
phones.
FCC also regulates the base stations that the
wireless phone networks rely upon. While these
base stations operate at higher power than do
the wireless phones themselves, the RF
exposures that people get from these base
stations are typically thousands of times lower
than those they can get from wireless phones.
Base stations are thus not the primary subject
of the safety questions discussed in this
document.
What are the results of the research
done already?
The research done thus far has produced
conflicting results, and many studies have
suffered from flaws in their research methods.
Animal experiments investigating the effects of
radio frequency energy (RF) exposures
characteristic of wireless phones have yielded
conflicting results that often cannot be repeated
in other laboratories. A few animal studies,
however, have suggested that low levels of RF
41
Health and safety information
could accelerate the development of cancer in
laboratory animals. However, many of the
studies that showed increased tumor
development used animals that had been
genetically engineered or treated with cancercausing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to
develop cancer in absence of RF exposure.
Other studies exposed the animals to RF for up
to 22 hours per day. These conditions are not
similar to the conditions under which people
use wireless phones, so we don't know with
certainty what the results of such studies mean
for human health.
Three large epidemiology studies have been
published since December 2000. Between
them, the studies investigated any possible
association between the use of wireless phones
and primary brain cancer, glioma, meningioma,
or acoustic neuroma, tumors of the brain or
42
salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers.
None of the studies demonstrated the existence
of any harmful health effects from wireless
phones RF exposures. However, none of the
studies can answer questions about long-term
exposures, since the average period of phone
use in these studies was around three years.
What research is needed to decide
whether RF exposure from wireless
phones poses a health risk?
A combination of laboratory studies and
epidemiological studies of people actually using
wireless phones would provide some of the data
that are needed. Lifetime animal exposure
studies could be completed in a few years.
However, very large numbers of animals would
be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer
promoting effect if one exists. Epidemiological
studies can provide data that is directly
applicable to human populations, but ten or
more years' follow-up may be needed to
provide answers about some health effects,
such as cancer. This is because the interval
between the time of exposure to a cancercausing agent and the time tumors develop - if
they do - may be many, many years. The
interpretation of epidemiological studies is
hampered by difficulties in measuring actual RF
exposure during day-to-day use of wireless
phones. Many factors affect this measurement,
such as the angle at which the phone is held, or
which model of phone is used.
What is FDA doing to find out more
about the possible health effects of
wireless phone RF?
FDA is working with the U.S. National
Toxicology Program and with groups of
investigators around the world to ensure that
high priority animal studies are conducted to
address important questions about the effects
of exposure to radio frequency energy (RF).
FDA has been a leading participant in the World
Health Organization international
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its
inception in 1996. An influential result of this
work has been the development of a detailed
agenda of research needs that has driven the
establishment of new research programs
around the world. The Project has also helped
develop a series of public information
documents on EMF issues.
FDA and Cellular Telecommunications &
Internet Association (CTIA) have a formal
Cooperative Research and Development
Agreement (CRADA) to do research on wireless
phone safety. FDA provides the scientific
oversight, obtaining input from experts in
government, industry, and academic
organizations. CTIA-funded research is
43
Health and safety information
conducted through contracts to independent
investigators. The initial research will include
both laboratory studies and studies of wireless
phone users. The CRADA will also include a
broad assessment of additional research needs
in the context of the latest research
developments around the world.
What steps can I take to reduce my
exposure to radio frequency energy
from my wireless phone?
If there is a risk from these products - and at
this point we do not know that there is - it is
probably very small. But if you are concerned
about avoiding even potential risks, you can
take a few simple steps to minimize your
exposure to radio frequency energy (RF). Since
time is a key factor in how much exposure a
person receives, reducing the amount of time
spent using a wireless phone will reduce RF
exposure.
44
•
“If you must conduct extended
conversations by wireless phone every day,
you could place more distance between
your body and the source of the RF, since
the exposure level drops off dramatically
with distance. For example, you could use a
headset and carry the wireless phone away
from your body or use a wireless phone
connected to a remote antenna.
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate
that wireless phones are harmful. But if you are
concerned about the RF exposure from these
products, you can use measures like those
described above to reduce your RF exposure
from wireless phone use.
What about children using wireless
phones?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger
to users of wireless phones, including children
and teenagers. If you want to take steps to
lower exposure to radio frequency energy (RF),
the measures described above would apply to
children and teenagers using wireless phones.
Reducing the time of wireless phone use and
increasing the distance between the user and
the RF source will reduce RF exposure.
Some groups sponsored by other national
governments have advised that children be
discouraged from using wireless phones at all.
For example, the government in the United
Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a
recommendation in December 2000. They
noted that no evidence exists that using a
wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill
effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless
phone use by children was strictly
precautionary; it was not based on scientific
evidence that any health hazard exists.
Do hands-free kits for wireless phones
reduce risks from exposure to RF
emissions?
Since there are no known risks from exposure
to RF emissions from wireless phones, there is
no reason to believe that hands-free kits reduce
risks. Hands-free kits can be used with wireless
phones for convenience and comfort. These
systems reduce the absorption of RF energy in
the head because the phone, which is the
source of the RF emissions, will not be placed
against the head. On the other hand, if the
phone is mounted against the waist or other
part of the body during use, then that part of
the body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless
phones marketed in the U.S. are required to
meet safety requirements regardless of
whether they are used against the head or
against the body. Either configuration should
result in compliance with the safety limit.
45
Health and safety information
Do wireless phone accessories that
claim to shield the head from RF
radiation work?
Since there are no known risks from
exposure to RF emissions from wireless
phones, there is no reason to believe that
accessories that claim to shield the head
from those emissions reduce risks. Some
products that claim to shield the user from
RF absorption use special phone cases, while
others involve nothing more than a metallic
accessory attached to the phone. Studies
have shown that these products generally do
not work as advertised. Unlike “hand-free”
kits, these so-called “shields” may interfere
with proper operation of the phone. The
phone may be forced to boost its power to
compensate, leading to an increase in RF
absorption. In February 2002, the Federal
trade Commission (FTC) charged two
companies that sold devices that claimed to
46
protect wireless phone users from radiation
with making false and unsubstantiated
claims. According to FTC, these defendants
lacked a reasonable basis to substantiate
their claim.
What about wireless phone interference
with medical equipment?
Radio frequency energy (RF) from wireless
phones can interact with some electronic
devices. For this reason, FDA helped develop a
detailed test method to measure
electromagnetic interference (EMI) of implanted
cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from
wireless telephones. This test method is now
part of a standard sponsored by the Association
for the Advancement of Medical instrumentation
(AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by FDA,
medical device manufacturers, and many other
groups, was completed in late 2000. This
standard will allow manufacturers to ensure
that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are
safe from wireless phone EMI. FDA has tested
wireless phones and helped develop a voluntary
standard sponsored by the Institute of Electrical
and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This standard
specifies test methods and performance
requirements for hearing aids and wireless
phones so that no interference occurs when a
person uses a compatible phone and a
compatible hearing aid at the same time. This
standard was approved by the IEEE in 2000.
FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless
phones for possible interactions with other
medical devices. Should harmful interference
be found to occur, FDA will conduct testing to
assess the interference and work to resolve the
problem.

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

5.
your call without taking your attention off
the road.
When available, use a hands-free device. If
possible, add an additional layer of
convenience and safety to your wireless
phone with one of the many hands free
accessories available today.
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.
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.
Do not take notes or look up phone
numbers while driving. Jotting down a “to
do” list or flipping through your address
book takes 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
people you are talking with aware 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 9-1-1 or other local 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 an auto accident,
crime in progress or other serious
emergency where lives are in danger, call 91-1 or other local emergency number, as
you would want others to do for you.
10. Call roadside assistance or a special nonemergency 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 other special non-emergency number.

Using Your Phone Near Other
Electronic Devices
Operating Environment
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.
Remember to follow any special regulations in
force in any area and always switch your phone
off 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).
50
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:
Other Medical Devices
•
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 your phone
off immediately.
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 your phone off 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.
Hearing Aids
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.
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.

Posted Facilities
Switch your phone off in any facility where
posted notices require you to do so.
Potentially Explosive Environments
Switch your phone off 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 the phone off while
at a refueling 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
52
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 (for example, 911 or other
official emergency number). Emergency
numbers vary by location.
3. Press
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.
Restricting Children's access to your

Getting the Most Out of Your Signal
Reception
The quality of each call you make or receive
depends on the signal strength in your area.
Your phone informs you of the current signal
strength by displaying a number of bars next to
the signal strength icon. The more bars
displayed, the stronger the signal.
If you're inside a building, being near a window
may give you better reception.
Understanding the Power Save Feature
If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15
minutes of searching, a Power Save feature is
automatically activated. If your phone is active,
it periodically rechecks service availability or
you can check it yourself by pressing any key.
Anytime the Power Save feature is activated, a
message displays on the screen. When a signal
is found, your phone returns to standby mode.
Understanding How Your Phone
Operates
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and
receiver. When it's turned on, it receives and
transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. When
you use your phone, the system handling your
call controls the power level. This power can
range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital
mode.

Health and safety information
Maintaining Your Phone's Peak
Performance
For the best care of your phone, only authorized
personnel should service your phone and
accessories. Faulty service may void the
warranty.
There are several simple guidelines to operating
your phone properly and maintaining safe,
satisfactory service.
• Hold the phone with the antenna raised,
fully-extended and over your shoulder.
• Try not to hold, bend or twist the phone's
antenna.
• Don't use the phone if the antenna is
damaged.
• Speak directly into the phone's receiver.
58
•
Avoid exposing your phone and accessories
to rain or liquid spills. If your phone does
get wet, immediately turn the power off and
remove the battery. If it is inoperable, call
Customer Care for service.
Availability of Various Features/Ring
Tones
Many services and features are network
dependent and may require additional
subscription and/or usage charges. Not all
features are available for purchase or use in all
areas. Downloadable Ring Tones may be
available at an additional cost. Other conditions
and restrictions may apply. See your service
provider for additional information.
Battery Standby and Talk Time
•
Standby and talk times will vary depending on
phone usage patterns and conditions. Battery
power consumption depends on factors such as
network configuration, signal strength,
operating temperature, features selected,
frequency of calls, and voice, data, and other
application usage patterns.
•
Battery Precautions
•
•
•
•
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 (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 Samsungapproved 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 lifetime 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-circuiting.
Dispose of used batteries in accordance
with local regulations. In some areas, the
disposal of batteries in household or
business trash may be prohibited. For safe
disposal options for Li-Ion batteries, contact
your nearest Samsung authorized service
center. Always recycle. Do not dispose of
batteries in a fire.
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.
• Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity
and liquids contain minerals that will
corrode electronic circuits.
•
•
•
•
•
•
Do not use the phone with a wet hand.
Doing so may cause an electric shock to you
or damage to the phone.
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 the phone. Paint can clog the
device's moving parts and prevent proper
operation.
Do not put the phone in or on heating
devices, such as a microwave oven, a stove
or a radiator. The phone may explode when
overheated.
When the phone or battery gets wet, the
label indicating water damage inside the
phone changes color. In this case, phone
repairs are no longer guaranteed by the
manufacturer's warranty, even if the
warranty for your phone has not expired.
If your phone has a flash or light, do not
use it too close to the eyes of people or
animals. This may cause damage to their
eyes.
