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.
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.
Health and safety information
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
FCC certification information for this model
phone is attached separation paper.
For Body Operation
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
76
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 °ýC (32 °ýF).
• 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, practice good common
sense and remember the following tips.
2. When available, use a hands-free device. If
possible, add an extra layer of convenience
and safety to your wireless phone with one of
the many hands-free accessories available
today.
Health and safety information
• Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental
shortcircuiting 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.
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its
features, such as speed dial and redial. If
available, these features help you to place
your call without taking your attention off the
road.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers
while driving. Jotting down a To Do list or
flipping through your phonebook takes your
attention away from your primary
responsibility, driving safely.
77
Health and safety information
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
the people with whom you are talking aware
that you are driving and suspend
conversations that have the potential to
divert your attention from the road.
78
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 any
other special nonemergency wireless number.
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.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial
the emergency number in the case of fire,
traffic accident or medical emergencies.
Remember, it is a free call on your wireless
phone!
When connecting the phone or any accessory to
another device, read its user’s guide for detailed
safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible
products.
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in
emergencies. If you see a car accident, crime
in progress or other serious emergency where
lives are in danger, call the emergency
number, as you would want others to do for
you.
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
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:
• 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
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
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.
If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, switch off your
phone immediately.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in
motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or
its
79
Health and safety information
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 Atmospheres
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 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 or
storage facilities, vehicles using liquefied
petroleum gas (such as propane or butane),
80
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, proceed as follows.
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.
2. Key in the emergency number for your
present location (for example, 112 or any
other official emergency number). Emergency
numbers vary by location.
3. Press the
key.
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.
• 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.
Settings (Menu
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 end the call until given
permission to do so.
• Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases,
or explosive materials in the same
compartment as the phone, its parts, or
accessories.
Health and safety information
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.
• Check regularly that all wireless phone
equipment in your vehicle is mounted and
operating properly.
• 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.

sense-keep your head up, keep your eyes on the
road, check your mirrors frequently and watch out
for other drivers. It requires obeying all traffic signs
and signals and staying within the speed limit. It
means using seat belts and requiring other
passengers to do the same.
But with wireless phone use, driving safely means a
little more. This brochure is a call to wireless phone
users everywhere to make safety their first priority
when behind the wheel of a car. Wireless
telecommunications is keeping us in touch,
simplifying our lives, protecting us in emergencies
and providing opportunities to help others in need.
When it comes to the use of wireless phones, safety
is your most important call.
But an important responsibility accompanies those
benefits, one that every wireless phone user must
uphold. When driving a car, driving is your first
responsibility. A wireless phone can be an invaluable
tool, but good judgment must be exercised at all
times while driving a motor vehicle whether on the
phone or not.
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its
features such as speed dial and redial.
Carefully read your instruction manual and
learn to take advantage of valuable features
most phones offer, including automatic redial
and memory. Also, work to memorize the

2. When available, use a hands free device. A
number of hands free wireless phone
accessories are readily available today.
Whether you choose an installed mounted
device for your wireless phone or a speaker
phone accessory, take advantage of these
devices if available to you.
3. Position your wireless phone within easy
reach. Make sure you place your wireless
phone within easy reach and where you can
grab it without removing your eyes from the
road. If you get an incoming call at an
inconvenient time, if possible, let your voice
mail answer it for you.
4. Suspend conversations during hazardous
driving conditions or situations. 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 and ice can be
hazardous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driver,
your first responsibility is to pay attention to
the road.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers
while driving. If you are reading an address
book or business card, or writing a “to do” list
86
while driving a car, you are not watching
where you are going. It’s common sense.
Don’t get caught in a dangerous situation
because you are reading or writing and not
paying attention to the road or nearby
vehicles.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if
possible, place calls when you are not moving
or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan your
calls before you begin your trip or attempt to
coincide your calls with times you may be
stopped at a stop sign, red light or otherwise
stationary. But if you need to dial while
driving, follow this simple tip-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.
Stressful or emotional conversations and
driving do not mix-they are distracting and
even dangerous when you are behind the
wheel of a car. Make people you are talking
with aware you are driving and if necessary,
suspend conversations which have the
potential to divert your attention from the
road.
10.Call roadside assistance or a special wireless
non emergency assistance number when
necessary. Certain situations you encounter
while driving may require attention, but are
not urgent enough to merit a call for
emergency services. But you still can use
your wireless phone to lend a hand. If you see

Appendix C: Consumer Update on
Wireless Phones
U.S. Food and Drug Administration
1. What kinds of phones are the subject of this
update?
87
Health and safety information
The term wireless phone refers here to hand-held
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.
2. 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
88
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, or in determining the
reasons for inconsistent results.
3. 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 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
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
• 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
4. 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).
Settings (Menu
• Environmental Protection Agency Federal
Communications Commission
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.
Health and safety information
• Cooperate in providing users of wireless
phones with the best possible information on
possible effects of wireless phone use on
human health
guidelines that limit RF exposure. FCC relies on FDA
and other health agencies for safety questions about
wireless phones.
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.
89
Health and safety information
FDA and the 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 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.
5. 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.
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
90
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.
6. 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.
7. 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 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”
9. 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.

8. Do wireless phone accessories that claim to
shield the head from RF radiation work?
Health and safety information
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. Handsfree 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.
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 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.
FDA has tested hearing aids for interference from
handheld wireless phones and helped develop a
voluntary standard sponsored by the Institute of
Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This
91
Health and safety information
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.
10. 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 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 cancer
causing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to
develop cancer in the 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,
92
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, gioma, meningioma, or acoustic
neuroma, tumors of the brain or salivary gland,
leukemia, or other cancers. None of the studies
demonstrated the existence of any harmful health
effects from wireless phone 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.
11. 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 10
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 cancer-causing 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.
