Safety warnings Keep your phone away from small children and pets Keep your phone and all accessories out of the reach of small children or animals. Small parts may cause choking or serious injury if swallowed. Protect your hearing  Excessive exposure to sound at  high volum es can cause hearing dam age. Always turn t he volum e down before plugging the earphones int o an audio source and use only t he m inim um  volum e set ting 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  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  Drive safely at all times Avoid using your phone while driving and obey all regulations that restrict the use of mobile phones while driving. Use hands-free accessories to increase your safety when possible. Follow all safety warnings and regulations Comply with any regulations that restrict the use of a mobile phone in a certain area. Use only Samsung-approved accessories Using incompatible accessories may damage your phone or cause injury. Turn off the phone near medical equipment Your phone can interfere with medical equipment in hospitals or health care facilities. Follow all regulations, posted warnings, and directions from medical personnel. Turn off the phone or disable the wireless functions when in an aircraft Your phone can cause interference with aircraft equipment. Follow all airline regulations and turn off your phone or switch to a mode that disables the wireless functions when directed by airline personnel. Protect batteries and chargers from damage Avoid exposing batteries to very cold or very hot temperatures (below 0° C/32° F or above 45° C/ 113° F). Extreme temperatures can reduce the charging capacity and life of your batteries. Prevent batteries from contacting metal objects, as this can create a connection between the + and - terminals of your batteries and lead to temporary or permanent battery damage. Never use a damaged charger or battery.
Handle your phone carefully and sensibly Do not allow your phone to get wet—liquids can cause serious damage. Do not handle your phone with wet hands. Water damage to your phone can void your manufacturer’s warranty.  Avoid using or storing your phone in dusty, dirty areas to prevent damage to moving parts.  Your phone is a complex electronic device— protect it from impacts and rough handling to avoid serious damage.  Do not paint your phone, as paint can clog moving parts and prevent proper operation.  Avoid using the phone’s camera flash or light close to the eyes of children or animals.  Your phone and memory cards may be damaged by exposure to magnetic fields. Do not use carrying cases or accessories with magnetic closures or allow your phone to come in contact with magnetic fields for extended periods of time. Avoid interference with other electronic devices Your phone emits radio frequency (RF) signals that may interfere with unshielded or improperly shielded electronic equipment, such as pacemakers, hearing aids, medical devices, and other electronic devices in homes or vehicles. Consult the manufacturers of your electronic devices to solve any interference 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.  Health and safety information Ex posure  t o Ra dio Fr equency ( RF)  Signals Cer t ifica t ion I nform 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 the 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 endations of t wo expert  organizat ions, t he Nat ional Counsel on Radiat ion Prot ect ion and Measurem ent ( NCRP) and t he I nst it ut e of Elect rical and Elect r onics Engineers ( I EEE). I n bot h cases, t he recom m endations wer e developed by scientific and engineering experts drawn from  industry, governm ent , and academ ia after ext ensive reviews of the scient ific lit erat ur e relat ed 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 know n as t he Specific Absorpt ion Rat e ( SAR). The SAR is a m easure of the rat e of absorpt ion of RF energy by t he hum an body expressed in unit s of wat t s per kilogram  ( W/ kg) . The FCC requires wireless phones t o com ply wit h a safet y lim it of 1.6 wat ts per kilogram  ( 1.6 W/  kg) . The FCC exposure lim it  incorporat es a subst ant ial m argin of safet y t o give addit ional protection t o t he public and t o account  for any variat ions in m easurem ents. SAR tests are conduct ed using st andard oper ating posit ions accepted 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 erm ined at  the highest  cert ified power level, t he actual SAR lev el of t he phone while operating can be well below  t he m axim um  value. This is because the phone is designed t o operate at  m ult iple power levels so as to use only t he power required to reach the net work. I n general, t he closer you are t o a wireless base st at ion ant enna, t he lower t he power out put . Before a new m odel phone is available for sale to t he public, it  m ust be tested and cert ified to t he FCC t hat it  does not  exceed the exposure lim it  est ablished by the FCC. Test s for each m odel phone are perform ed in posit ions and locat ions (e.g. at t he ear and w orn 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 whenused with a Sam sung accessory designat ed for  this product  or when used with an accessory t hat  cont ains no m etal and t hat  positions t he handset  a m inim um  of 1.5 cm  from  the body.   Non-com pliance wit h the above rest rict ions m ay result  in violation of FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR inform at ion on this and ot her m odel phones can be viewed on-line at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. This sit e uses t he phone FCC I D num ber, A3LSGHT669. Som et im es it  m ay be necessary t o rem ove the bat t ery pack to find t he num ber. Once you have the FCC I D num ber for  a part icular phone, follow t he inst ructions on t he website and it  should provide values for  t ypical or m axim um  SAR for a par ticular phone. Addit ional product  specific SAR inform at ion can also be obtained at  ww w.fcc.gov/ cgb/ sar. Consum er  I nfor m a t ion on W ir ele ss Phones The U.S. Food and Drug Adm inistr at ion ( FDA)  has published a series of Questions and Answer s for consum ers relat ing to radio frequency ( RF)  exposure from  wireless phones. The FDA publication includes t he following infor m at ion:  W h at  kinds of phones a re  t he  subj e ct  of t his updat e? The term  wireless phone refers here to hand-held wir eless phones wit h built-in ant ennas, often 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 the shor t dist ance between t he phone and t he user's head. These RF exposures are lim it ed by Federal Com m unications Com m ission safet y guidelines t hat  were developed wit h the advice of FDA and ot her federal healt h and safet y agencies. When t he phone is locat ed at  greater  dist ances from  t he user, t he exposure t o RF is drastically lower because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly wit h increasing distance from  the source. The so-called “ cordless phones,”  which have a base unit  connected to the t elephone wiring in a house, typically operate at  far lower pow er levels, and thus produce RF exposures well wit hin t he FCC's com pliance lim its. Do w ireless phon es pose a  he alt h hazar d? The available scient ific evidence does not  show t hat  any healt h problem s are associat ed with using w ireless phones. There is no pr oof, however, that  wireless phones are absolutely 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 w hen in t he st and-by  m ode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce healt h effect s ( by heat ing t issue) , exposure to low level RF t hat  does not  produce heat ing effect s causes no known adverse health effect s. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not found any  biological effect s. Som e st udies have suggest ed t hat som e biological effect s m ay occur, but such findings have not  been confirm ed by addit ional research. I n som e cases, ot her researchers have had
difficult y in reproducing t hose st udies, or in det erm ining t he reasons for inconsist ent result s. W h at  is FDA's r ole  conce rning t he sa fet y of w ir ele ss phones? Under t he law, FDA does not  review t he safet y of radiat ion-em it t ing consum er product s such as wireless phones before they can be sold, as it  does w it h new drugs or m edical devices. However, the agency has aut horit y to t ake act ion if wireless phones are shown t o em it  radio frequency energy ( RF)  at  a level t hat  is hazardous to t he user. I n such a case, FDA could require t he m anufact ur ers of w ireless phones t o notify users of the health hazard and to repair, replace or recall t he phones so that  t he hazard no longer  exist s. Alt hough t he exist ing scient ific dat a do not  j ust ify FDA regulatory 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 effect s of RF of the t ype em itted by wireless phones;   “ Design wireless phones in a way that  m inim izes any RF exposure to t he user that  is not necessary for device funct ion;  and  “ Cooperate in providing users of wir eless phones wit h t he best  possible inform at ion on possible effect s of wireless phone use on hum an health. FDA belongs t o an interagency w orking group of t he federal agencies t hat  have responsibilit y for different aspect s of RF safety t o ensure coordinat ed effort s at  t he federal level. The following agencies belong t o this w orking group:   “ National I nst it ute for Occupat ional Safety and Healt h  “ Environm ent al Prot ect ion Agency  “ Feder al Com m unications Com m ission  “ Occupational Safet y and Healt h Adm inist rat ion  “ National Telecom m unicat ions and I nform ation Adm inistrat ion The Nat ional I nst itut es of Health par ticipat es in som e int er agency working group act ivit ies, as w ell. FDA shares regulat ory responsibilit ies for wireless phones w it h t he Federal Com m unications Com m ission ( FCC) . All phones that  are sold in t he Unit ed St at es m ust  com ply with FCC safet y guidelines t hat  lim it RF exposure. FCC relies on FDA and other healt h agencies for safet y quest ions about wireless phones. FCC also regulates t he base st at ions t hat the wireless phone net works rely upon. While t hese base st at ions operat e at  higher power  than do t he wireless phones them selves, the RF exposures t hat  people get from  these base stat ions are t ypically t housands of tim es lower than t hose t hey can get  from  wireless phones. Base stations are t hus not  t he prim ary subject  of t he safety questions discussed in this docum ent . W ha t  a r e t h e r esu lt s of t he  rese arch done a lr ea dy?
The research done t hus far has produced conflict ing result s, and m any studies have suffered from  flaws in t heir research m ethods. Anim al experim ents invest igat ing t he effects of radio frequency energy (RF) exposures characterist ic of wireless phones have yielded conflict ing result s t hat oft en cannot  be repeat ed in ot her laborat ories. A few anim al studies, however, have suggested t hat low levels of RF could acceler ate the developm ent  of cancer in laboratory anim als. However, m any of t he studies that  showed incr eased t um or developm ent  used anim als t hat  had been genet ically engineered or treat ed wit h cancer-causing chem icals so as t o be pre-disposed t o develop cancer in absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed t he anim als to RF for up t o 22 hours per day. These condit ions ar e not sim ilar to the conditions under which people use wireless phones, so we don't  know w it h certaint y what  t he results of such studies m ean for hum an health. Three large epidem iology studies have been published since Decem ber 2000. Bet ween them , t he st udies invest igated any possible associat ion between t he use of wireless phones and prim ary brain cancer, gliom a, m eningiom a, or acoustic 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 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  r esearch is ne ede d t o decide w he t her  RF e x posur e  fr om  w ir eless phones pose s a  he alt h risk ? A com binat ion of laboratory studies and epidem iological st udies of people act ually using wireless phones would provide som e of the dat a t hat are needed. Lifetim e anim al exposure st udies could be com plet ed in a few years. However, very large num bers of anim als would be needed t o provide reliable proof of a cancer prom ot ing effect  if one exist s. Epidem iological st udies can provide dat a t hat  is directly applicable to hum an populat ions, but  t en or m ore years' follow-up m ay be needed to provide answers about som e health effect s, such as cancer. This is because t he int erval bet ween t he tim 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 int erpret at ion of epidem iological st udies is ham pered by difficult ies in m easuring act ual RF exposure during day-t o-day use of wireless phones. Many fact ors affect  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 h at  is FDA doing t o find out  m or e a bout  t he possible  hea lt h effect s of w ir ele ss phone RF? FDA is w orking w it h t he U.S. Nat ional Toxicology Program  and wit h groups of investigat ors ar ound the world to ensure t hat  high priorit y anim al st udies are conduct ed to address im portant  quest ions about  the effect s of exposure to radio frequency energy ( RF) .
FDA has been a leading participant  in t he World Healt h Or ganizat ion int ernat ional Elect rom agnet ic Fields ( EMF)  Proj ect  since it s incept ion in 1996. An influent ial result  of t his work has been t he developm ent of a detailed agenda of r esearch needs that  has driven t he establishm ent of new research 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 unications & I nt ernet Associat ion ( CTI A)  have a form al Cooperative Research and Developm ent  Agreem ent  ( CRADA)  t o do research on wireless phone safety. FDA provides t he scientific oversight , obtaining input  from  expert s in governm ent , indust ry, and academ ic organizat ions. CTI A-funded research is conduct ed through contract s t o independent  invest igat ors. The init ial research w ill include bot h laborat ory st udies and st udies of wireless phone users. The CRADA will also include a broad assessm ent of additional research needs in t he context  of t he lat est  research developm ent s around t he world. W ha t  st eps ca n I  t a ke to reduce m y ex posure t o ra dio fr equency ene rgy fr om  m y w ireless phone? I f t here is a risk from  these 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 pot ent ial risks, you can t ake a few sim ple steps 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 dist ance between your body and the source of the 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 the 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 dat a do not  dem onst rate that  wireless phones are harm ful. But if you are concerned about  t he RF exposure from  these product s, you can use m easures like t hose described above t o reduce your RF exposure from  wireless phone use. W h at  about  childr en using w ir eless phones? The scient ific evidence does not  show a danger t o users of wireless phones, including children and teenagers. I f you want  t o t ake steps to low er exposure to radio frequency energy ( RF) , t he m easures described above w ould apply t o children and t eenagers using wireless phones. Reducing t he tim e of wireless phone use and incr easing t he dist ance between t he user and t he RF source will reduce RF exposure. Som e groups sponsored by other national governm ents 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 leaflets containing such a recom m endat ion in Decem ber 2000. They not ed t hat  no evidence exist s that  using a wireless phone causes brain tum ors or other ill effect s. Their
recom m endation to lim it  wireless phone use by children was strict ly precaut ionary;  it was not based on scientific evidence t hat  any healt h hazard exist s.   Do hands-fr ee  k it s for w irele ss phones r educe risk s from  exposure t o RF em ission s? Since t here are no known risks from  exposure to RF em issions from  wireless phones, t here is no reason t o believe t hat  hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free kit s can be used w it h wir eless phones for convenience and com fort . These syst em s reduce t he absorpt ion of RF energy in the head because t he phone, which is t he source of the RF em issions, w ill not  be placed against  t he head. On the other hand, if t he phone is m ount ed against  t he waist  or ot her part  of the body during use, t hen t hat 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 ents regardless of whether t hey are used against  t he head or against  t he body. Eit her configurat ion should result  in com pliance with t he safety lim it. Do w ireless phon e a cce ssor ies t ha t  cla im  t o shield t h e he ad fr om  RF r adia t ion w or k? Since t here are no known risks from  exposure to RF em issions from  wireless phones, t here is no reason t o believe that  accessories t hat  claim  to shield the head from  t hose em issions reduce risks. Som e product s t hat  claim  to shield t he user from  RF absorpt ion use special phone cases, while ot hers involve not hing m ore t han a m et allic accessor y at tached to t he phone. St udies have shown t hat t hese products generally do not  work as advert ised. Unlike “ hand-free”  kit s, t hese so-called “ shields”  m ay int erfere wit h proper operat ion of the phone. The phone m ay be forced t o boost it s power  to com pensat e, leading to an increase in RF absorption. I n February 2002, t he 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 wit h m aking false and unsubst ant iated claim s. According to FTC, these defendant s lacked a reasonable basis to subst ant iate their claim . W h at  about  w ir eless phon e int e rfer ence  w it h m e dical equipm e nt ? Radio frequency energy ( RF)  from  wireless phones can int eract wit h som e elect ronic devices. For this reason, FDA helped develop a detailed t est  m ethod t o m easure elect rom agnet ic int erference ( EMI )  of im planted cardiac pacem akers and defibrillat ors fr om  w ireless t elephones. This t est  m ethod is now part  of a st andard sponsored by t he Association for t he Advancem ent  of Medical inst rum ent at ion ( AAMI ) . The final draft , a j oint  effort  by FDA, m edical device m anufact urers, and m any ot her groups, was com pleted in lat e 2000. This st andar d will allow m anufacturers t o ensure that cardiac pacem akers and defibrillat ors are safe from  wireless phone EMI . FDA has t est ed wireless phones and helped develop a volunt ary standard sponsored by the I nst it ute of Elect rical and Electronic Engineers ( I EEE) . This st andard specifies t est  m et hods and perform ance
requir em ent s for hearing aids and wireless phones so that  no int erference occurs when a person uses a com pat ible phone and a com pat ible hearing aid at  t he sam e t im e. This st andard was approved by t he I EEE in 2000. FDA cont inues to m onitor t he use of wir eless phones for  possible int eractions wit h ot her m edical devices. Should harm ful int erference be found t o occur, FDA will conduct test ing t o assess t he int erference and work to resolve t he problem .

But  an im port ant  responsibilit y accom panies the benefit s of wireless phones, one t hat  every user m ust  uphold. When dr iving 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 the following tips:  1. Get  to 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 att ention off t he road. 2. When available, use a hands-free device. I f possible, add an addit ional layer of convenience and safet y t o your w ireless phone wit h 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 answ er it for  you. 4. Let  the person you are speaking wit h know you are driving;  if
necessary, suspend t he call in heavy traffic or hazardous weat her condit ions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice and even heavy tr affic can be hazardous. 5. Do not  t ake not es or look up phone num bers w hile 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 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 to 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 awar e you are dr iving and suspend conversations t hat  have t he pot ent ial t o divert your attent ion from  t he road. 8. Use your wir eless phone t o call for help. Dial 9- 1- 1 or other 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.
