Excessive exposure t o sound at high volum es can cause hearing dam age.
Always turn t he volum e down before plugging t he earphones int o an audio source and
use only t he m inim um volum e set t ing necessary t o hear you r conv ersat 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
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.
Never dispose of batteries or phones in a fire. Follow all local regulations
when disposing used batteries or phones.
Never place batteries or phones on or in heating devices, such as microwave
ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode when overheated.
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

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 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
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.

Exposure t o Ra dio Frequency ( RF) Signa ls
Cer t ifica t ion I nfor m at ion ( SAR)
Your wireless phone is a radio t ransm it t er and receiver. I t is designed and
m anufact ured not t o exceed t he exposure lim its 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 its are derived from t he
recom m endat ions of t wo expert organizations, the Nat ional Counsel 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, t he
recom m endat ions were developed by scient ific and engineering experts
drawn from indust r y, gover nm ent, and academ ia after ext ensive review s
of the scient ific lit erature related t o the 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 Absorpt ion Rat e ( SAR). The
SAR is a m easure of t he rat e of absorpt ion of RF energy by the hum an
body expressed in unit s of wat t s per kilogram ( W/ kg) . The FCC requires
wireless phones t o com ply with a safety lim it of 1.6 wat t s per kilogram
( 1.6 W/ kg) . The FCC exposure lim it incorporat es a subst ant ial m argin of
safet y to give addit ional prot ect ion t o t he public and to account for any
variations in m easur em ents.
SAR test s are conduct ed using standard operat ing posit ions accept ed by
the FCC wit h t he phone t ransm it t ing at it s highest cert ified power level in
all t est ed frequency bands. Although t he SAR is det er m ined at the highest
cert ified power level, t he act ual SAR lev el of the phone w hile oper at ing
can be well below t he m axim um value. This is because t he phone is
designed to operat e at m ult iple power levels so as t o use only t he power
required to reach t he net work. I n general, t he closer you are to a wireless
base stat ion ant enna, t he lower t he power output .
Before a new m odel phone is available for sale to t he public, it m ust be
test ed and cert ified to t he FCC t hat it does not exceed t he exposure lim it
est ablished by t he FCC. Tests for each m odel phone are perform ed in
positions and locat ions ( e.g. at t he ear and worn on t he body) as required
by the FCC.
For body worn operat ion, t his m odel phone has been t est ed and m eet s
the FCC RF exposur e guidelines when used with a Sam sung accessory
designat ed for t his product or when used with an accessory that cont ains
no m et al and t hat posit ions t he handset a m inim um of 1.5 cm from t he
body.
Non-com pliance wit h t he above rest rict ions m ay result in violat ion of FCC
RF exposure guidelines.
SAR inform at ion on t his and ot her m odel phones can be viewed on-line at
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. Please use t he phone FCC I D num ber for
search, A3LSGHS730G. Som et im es it m ay be necessary t o rem ove the
battery pack t o find t he num ber. Once you have t he FCC I D num ber for a
part icular phone, follow t he instruct ions on t he website and it should
provide values for t ypical or m axim um SAR for a particular phone.

Consum er I nform a t ion on W ir eless Ph ones
The U.S. Food and Dr ug Adm inist rat ion ( FDA) has published a series of
Questions and Answ ers for consum ers relat ing t o radio frequency ( RF)
exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publication includes the
following infor m at ion:
W ha t kinds of phone s ar e t he subj ect of t his upda t e?
The term wireless phone refers here to 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 to m easurable radio
frequency energy ( RF) because of t he short dist ance between 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 safety guidelines t hat were developed w it h
the advice of FDA and ot her federal health and safety agencies. When t he
phone is locat ed at great er dist ances fr om the user, t he exposure t o RF is
drastically lower because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly wit h
increasing dist ance from t he source. The so-called “ cordless phones,”
which have a base unit connect ed to the telephone w iring in a house,
typically operat e at far lower power levels, and t hus produce RF
exposures well within the FCC's com pliance lim its.
Do w ir ele ss phon es pose a hea lt h haza rd?
The available scient ific evidence does not show t hat any healt h problem s
are associat ed w it h using wireless phones. There is no proof, however,
that w ir eless phones are absolut ely safe. Wireless phones em it low levels
of radio frequency energy ( RF) in t he m icrow ave 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 heating t issue) , exposure
to low level RF t hat does not produce heating 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 st udies have suggested 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, ot her researchers have had
difficulty in repr oducing t hose st udies, or in determ ining t he reasons for
inconsist ent results.
W ha t is FDA's role concerning t he safe t y of w ir eless phones?
Under t he law, FDA does not review t he safety of radiat ion-em itt ing
consum er products such as wireless phones before t hey can be sold, as it
does wit h new drugs or m edical devices. However, t he agency has
aut hority 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 t o t he user. I n such a
case, FDA could require t he m anufact urers of wireless phones t o notify
users of the healt h hazard and to repair, replace or recall t he phones so
that the hazard no longer exist s.
Alt hough t he exist ing scient ific dat a do not justify FDA regulat or y act ions,
FDA has urged t he wireless phone indust ry t o t ake a num ber of st eps,
including t he following:
“ Support needed research int o possible biological effects of RF of
the t ype em it t ed by wireless phones;
“ 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
“ Cooperat e in providing users of wireless phones wit h t he 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 that
have responsibilit y for different aspect s of RF safet y t o ensure coordinated
effort s at the federal level. The following agencies belong t o this working
group:
“ Nat ional I nst itut e for Occupat ional Safet y and Healt h
“ Environm ent al Prot ect ion Agency
“ Federal Com m unicat ions Com m ission
“ Occupational Safet y and Health Adm inist r at ion
“ Nat ional Telecom m unicat ions and I nform at ion Adm inist r at ion
The National I nstit ut es of Healt h part icipat es in som e int eragency working
group act ivit ies, as well.
FDA shares regulatory r esponsibilit ies for wireless phones wit h t he Federal
Com m unicat ions Com m ission ( FCC). All phones that are sold in t he Unit ed
St at es m ust com ply with FCC safety guidelines t hat lim it RF exposure.
FCC relies on FDA and ot her healt h agencies for safety questions about
wireless phones.
FCC also regulat es t he base st at ions t hat the wireless phone networks
rely upon. While t hese base st at ions operat e at higher power t han do the
wireless phones t hem selves, t he RF exposures t hat people get from these
base stat ions are t ypically thousands of tim es lower t han those t hey can
get from wireless phones. Base st ations are thus not t he prim ary subj ect
of t he safet y quest ions discussed in t his docum ent .
W ha t a re t he re sult s of t he re se a rch done a lrea dy?
The research done thus far has produced conflict ing result s, and m any
studies have suffered from flaws in t heir research m et hods. Anim al
experim ent s invest igat ing t he effects of radio frequency energy (RF)
exposures charact erist ic of wireless phones have yielded conflict ing
result s t hat oft en cannot be repeated in other 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 t hat showed increased t um or developm ent used anim als t hat had
been genetically engineered or t reated 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 condit ions under which people use
wireless phones, so we don't know wit h cert aint y what t he result s of such
studies m ean for hum an healt h.
Three large epidem iology st udies have been published since Decem ber
2000. Bet ween t hem , t he studies invest igated any possible associat ion
between the 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 studies dem onst rat ed t he
exist ence of any har m ful healt h effect s from wireless phones RF
exposures. However, none of the st udies can answer quest ions about
long-term exposures, since t he average period of phone use in t hese
studies was around t hree years.
W ha t research is n ee ded t o decide w het her RF ex posur e fr om
w ir ele ss ph ones pose s a hea lt h risk ?
A com binat ion of laboratory st udies and epidem iological st udies of people
act ually using wireless phones would provide som e of t he data t hat are
needed. Lifet im e anim al exposure studies could be com plet ed in a few
years. However, very lar ge num bers of anim als would be needed t o
provide reliable proof of a cancer prom ot ing effect if one exists.
Epidem iological st udies can provide dat a t hat is direct ly applicable to
hum an populations, but t en or m ore years' follow-up m ay be needed t o
provide answers about som e health effects, such as cancer. This is
because the interval between the 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 ation 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 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 or e about t he possible hea lt h
effect s of w ir eless phone RF?
FDA is working with the U.S. Nat ional Toxicology Program and with
groups of invest igat ors around the world to ensure that high priorit y
anim al st udies are conduct ed to address im port ant 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 Or ganizat ion
int ernat ional Elect rom agnetic Fields ( EMF) Proj ect since it s incept ion in
1996. An influential result of t his w or k has been t he developm ent of a
detailed agenda of research needs that has driven the establishm ent of
new resear ch program s around t he 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 scientific
oversight , obtaining input from expert s in governm ent , industry, and
academ ic organizat ions. CTI A-funded research is conduct ed t hrough
contract s to independent investigators. The init ial r esearch will include
bot h laboratory 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
context of t he lat est research developm ents around t he wor ld.
W hat st eps ca n I tak e t o reduce m y exposure to ra dio frequency
ene r gy fr om m y w ir e less phone?
I f t here is a risk from these products - and at t his point we do not know
that there is - it is probably very sm all. But if you are concer ned about
avoiding even potent ial risks, you can t ake a few sim ple st eps to 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 ext ended conversat ions by wireless phone
every day, you could place m ore distance bet ween your body and
the source of t he RF, since the 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.
Again, t he scient ific dat a do not dem onst rat e t hat wireless phones are
harm ful. But if you are concerned about t he RF exposure from t hese
products, you can use m easures like those described above t o reduce
your RF exposure from wireless phone use.
W ha t about childre n using w ire less phones?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless
phones, including children and t eenagers. I f you want to t ake st eps to
lower exposure to radio fr equency energy ( RF) , t he m easures described
above would apply t o childr en and t eenagers using wireless phones.
Reducing t he tim e of wireless phone use and increasing t he distance
between the user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure.
Som e groups sponsored by ot her nat ional 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 Unit ed Kingdom dist ributed leaflet s containing such
a recom m endation in Decem ber 2000. They not ed that no evidence exists
that using a wireless phone causes brain tum ors or ot her ill effect s. Their
recom m endation t o lim it wir eless phone use by children was st rict ly
precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any healt h
hazard exists.
Do ha nds-fre e k it s for w ir eless phones reduce risk s fr om ex posure
t o RF em issions?
Since t here are no known risks from exposure t o RF em issions from
wireless phones, t here is no reason t o believe t hat 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 the absorption of RF energy in the
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 t he phone is m ounted
against t he waist or ot her part of t he body during use, then t hat part of
the body will absorb m ore RF energy. Wireless phones m arket ed in t he
U.S. are required to m eet safet y requir em ent s regardless of whether they
are used against t he head or against t he body. Either configurat ion should
result in com pliance wit h t he safety lim it .
Do w ir ele ss phon e a ccessor ies t h at claim t o shield t he head fr om
RF r a diat ion w ork?
Since t here are no known risks from exposure t o RF em issions from
wireless phones, t here is no reason to believe that accessories t hat claim
to shield t he head from t hose em issions reduce risks. Som e product s that
claim t o shield t he user from RF absor ption use special phone cases, while
ot hers involve not hing m ore t han a m et allic accessory at t ached t o the
phone. St udies have shown t hat t hese product s generally do not work as
advert ised. Unlike “ hand-free” kits, t hese so-called “ shields” m ay int erfere
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, the Federal trade Com m ission ( FTC) charged two
com panies t hat sold devices t hat claim ed to prot ect wireless phone users
from radiation w it h m aking false and unsubst antiated claim s. Accor ding t o
FTC, these defendants lacked a reasonable basis t o subst antiate t heir
claim .
W ha t about w ir eless phon e int er fer e nce w it h m edica l equipm ent ?
Radio frequency energy ( RF) from wireless phones can interact with som e
electronic devices. For t his r eason, FDA helped develop a det ailed test
m et hod to m easure electrom agnet ic int erference ( EMI ) of im plant ed
cardiac pacem akers and defibrillat ors from wireless t elephones. This t est
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 ur ers, and m any ot her groups,
was com pleted in lat e 2000. This st andar d will allow m anufact ur ers to
ensure that cardiac pacem akers and defibrillators are safe from wireless
phone EMI . FDA has t est ed wireless phones and helped develop a
volunt ary st andar d sponsored by the I nstit ute of Elect rical and Elect ronic
Engineers ( I EEE) . This st andard specifies t est m et hods and perform ance
requirem ents for hearing aids and wireless phones so that no interfer ence
occurs when a person uses a com pat ible phone and a com pat ible hearing
aid at t he sam e tim e. This standard was approved by t he I EEE in 2000.
FDA continues to m onit or t he use of wireless phones for possible
int eract ions wit h ot her m edical devices. Should harm ful int erference be
found t o occur, FDA w ill conduct t est ing t o assess t he interference and
work to resolve t he problem .

Roa d Sa fet y
Your wireless phone gives you t he powerful abilit y t o com m unicate by
voice, alm ost anyw here, anytim e. But an im port ant responsibility
accom panies t he benefit s of wireless phones, one t hat every user m ust
uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. When using your
wireless phone behind t he wheel of a car, practice good com m on sense
and rem em ber t he following t ips:
1. Get t o know your wireless phone and its features, such as speed
dial and redial. I f available, t hese feat ures help you to place your
call without t aking your at t ent ion 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
wit h one of t he m any hands free accessories available today.
3. Posit ion your wir eless 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 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 the 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 w hile driv ing. Jot t ing
down a “ t o do” list or flipping t hrough your address book t akes
at tent ion aw ay fr om your prim ary responsibilit y, driv ing safely.
6. Dial sensibly and assess t he t raffic; 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 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 talking with aware you are driving
and suspend conversat ions t hat have t he potential t o divert your
attent ion from t he road.
8. Use your wireless phone to 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 ot hers in em ergencies. I f you see
an auto accident , crim e in progress or ot her serious em ergency
where lives are in danger, call 9- 1- 1 or other local em ergency
num ber, as you would want others to do for you.

Connectivity
Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology
capable of exchanging information over a distance of about 10 m
without requiring a physical connection.
You do not need to line up the devices to beam information with Bluetooth. If
the devices are within range of one another, you can exchange information
between them even if they are located in different rooms.
Samsung is not responsible for the loss, interception, or misuse
of data sent or received via the Bluetooth wireless feature.
Always ensure that you share and receive data with devices that are
trusted and properly secured. If there are obstacles between the devices, the
operating distance may be reduced.
Some devices, especially those that are not tested or approved by
Bluetooth SIG, may be incompatible with your device.
