to, if necessary.
•
Ensure that your device and the other Bluetooth device are within the maximum
Bluetooth range (10 m).
If the tips above do not solve the problem, contact a Samsung Service Centre.
A connection is not established when you connect the device to a
computer
•
Ensure that the USB cable you are using is compatible with your device.
•
Ensure that you have the proper drivers installed and updated on your computer.
•
If you are a Windows XP user, ensure that you have Windows XP Service Pack 3 or higher
installed on your computer.
•
Ensure that you have Samsung Kies 2.0 or Windows Media Player 10 or higher installed
on your computer.
A small gap appears around the outside of the device case
•
This gap is a necessary manufacturing feature and some minor rocking or vibration of
parts may occur.
•
Over time, friction between parts may cause this gap to expand slightly.

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
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
engineering experts drawn from industry, government,
The exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile
devices employs a unit of measurement known as the
the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human body
expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). T he FCC
requires wireless devices 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 recommended operating
positions accepted by the FCC with the device
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined
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
it does not exceed the exposure limit established by
the FCC. Tests for each model are performed in
positions and locations (e.g. near the body) as required
by the FCC.
Health and safety information
For typical operations, this model has been
tested and meets the FCC exposure guidelines.
SAR information on this and other models can
be viewed on-line at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/.
This site uses the FCC ID number A3LSMT33".
You can check the FCC ID on the rear case.
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
SAR information can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/
cgb/sar.
Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in
any area and always switch your device
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.
FCC Notice and Cautions
FCC Notice
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit from that to which the
receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The device may cause TV or radio interference if used in close proximity to
receiving equipment. The FCC can require you to stop using the device if such
interference cannot be eliminated. Vehicles using petroleum gas (such as
propane or butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection Standard
(NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the National Fire Protection
Association, One Battery march Park, Quincy, MA 02269, Attn: Publication Sales
Division.
Cautions
Changes or modifications made in the radio device, not expressly approved by
Samsung, will void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
The use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the device
warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the device. Although
your device is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken.
Avoid dropping, hitting, bending or sitting on it.
This device is capable of operating in 802.11a/n mode. For 802.11a/n devices operating in the
frequency range of 5.15 - 5.25 GHz, they are restricted for indoor operations to reduce any
potential harmful interference for Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) in the US. WIFI Access
Points that are capable of allowing your device to operate in 802.11a/n mode (5.15 - 5.25 GHz
band) are optimized for indoor use only. If your WIFI network is capable of operating in this
mode, please restrict your WIFI use indoors to not violate federal regulations to protect
Mobile Satellite Services.
