Health and safety information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Certification Information (SAR)
Your wireless device 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 device 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 device while operating can be well below the maximum
value. This is because the device 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 device 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 device are performed in positions and locations as
required by the FCC.
SAR information on this and other model phones can be viewed on-line at
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. Please use the device FCC ID number for search,
A3LSMP901. Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the battery pack to find
the number. Once you have the FCC ID number for a particular device, follow the
instructions on the website and it should provide values for typical or maximum SAR
for a particular device. Additional product specific SAR information can also be
obtained at http://www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/specific-absorption-rate-sar-cellular-
telephones
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 device 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 device 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 device 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, 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 the wireless device 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 device 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 device 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 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 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 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 device 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 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 device is held, or which model of device is used.
What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of
wireless device 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 device 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 device 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 device?
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 device will reduce RF exposure.
“If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless device 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 device away from your body.
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
device 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 device 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 device
causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless
device 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 device, which is the source of the
RF emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand, if the device 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.
Do wireless device 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 device cases, while others involve nothing more than a
metallic accessory attached to the device. 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 device. The device 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 device 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 device 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 device 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 device 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 device 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
device behind the wheel of a car, practice good common sense and remember the
following tips:
1. Get to know your wireless device 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.
2. When available, use a hands-free device. If possible, add an additional layer
of convenience and safety to your wireless device with one of the many
hands free accessories available today.
3. Position your wireless device within easy reach. Be able to access your
wireless device 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 device 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 device 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 device!
9. Use your wireless device to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto
accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in
danger, call 9-1-1 or other local emergency number, as you would want
others to do for you.
10. Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency 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.
“The wireless industry reminds you to use your device safely when driving.”

Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always switch
your device off whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference
or danger. When connecting the device 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.
Using Your Device Near Other Electronic Devices
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 device. Consult the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum distance of 15 cm (6
inches) be maintained between a wireless device 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 device more than 15 cm
(6 inches) from their pacemaker when the device is switched on.
should not carry the device 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
device off immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of
such interference, you may wish to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical devices, consult the manufacturer of your
device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Switch your device
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.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic
systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative
regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment
that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Switch your device off in any facility where posted notices require you to do so.
Potentially Explosive Environments
Switch your device 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 device 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 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 device, like any wireless devices, 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
device for essential communications (medical emergencies, for example).
Remember, to make or receive any calls the device must be switched on and in a
service area with adequate signal strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on
all wireless device networks or when certain network services and/ or device
features are in use. Check with local service providers.
To make an emergency call:
1. If the device 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 device 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 Device
Your device is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with it because they
could hurt themselves and others, damage the device or make calls that
increases your Wireless bill.

Product Performance
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 device 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 device is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching, a Power
Save feature is automatically activated. If your device 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 device returns to standby mode.
Maintaining Your Phone's Peak Performance
For the best care of your device, only authorized personnel should service
your device and accessories. Faulty service may void the warranty.
There are several simple guidelines to operating your device properly and
maintaining safe, satisfactory service.
Place the mobile phone's acoustic output next to your ear for proper
orientation.
Do not tamper or alter the phone's antenna.
Don't use the device if the antenna is damaged.
Speak directly into the phone's receiver.
Avoid exposing your device and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your
device 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 device 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 device 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
Samsung-approved chargers. When a charger is not in use, disconnect it
from the power source. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for
more than a week, since overcharging may shorten its life.
Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity of your battery: it may
require cooling or warming first.
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 device 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 device 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 device and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small
children.
Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain minerals that
will corrode electronic circuits.
Do not use the device with a wet hand. Doing so may cause an electric shock
to you or damage to the device.
Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas, as its moving parts may
be damaged.
Do not store the device in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life
of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
Do not store the device in cold areas. When the device warms up to its
normal operating temperature, moisture can form inside the device, which
may damage the phone's electronic circuit boards.
Do not drop, knock or shake the device. Rough handling can break internal
circuit boards.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong detergents to clean
the device. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-
water solution.
Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the device's moving parts and prevent
proper operation.
Do not put the device in or on heating devices, such as a microwave oven, a
stove or a radiator. The device may explode when overheated.
When the device or battery gets wet, the label indicating water damage inside
the device changes color. In this case, device repairs are no longer
guaranteed by the manufacturer's warranty, even if the warranty for your
device has not expired.
If your device 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.
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas or modified accessories may damage the device and violate
regulations governing radio devices.
If the device, battery, charger or any accessory is not working properly, take it
to your nearest qualified service facility. The personnel there will assist you,
and if necessary, arrange for service.
