Health and safety information  Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals  Certification Information (SAR) Your wireless phone 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 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. 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 exposure limit established by the FCC. Tests for each model phone are performed in positions and locations (e.g. at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC.     For  body  worn  operations,  this  model  phone  has  been  testde  and  meets  the  FCC exposure guidelines when used with a Samsung accessory designated for this product or when  used  with  an  accessroy  that  contains  no  metal  and  that  positons  the  handset  a minimum 1.5 cm from the body. Non-compliance with the above restrictions may result in violation of FCC RF exposure guidelines.   SAR information on this and other model phones can be viewed on-line at www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid. This site uses the phone FCC ID number A3LSMW2016.
Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the battery pack to find the number. Once you have the FCC ID number for a particular phone, follow the instructions on the website and it should provide values for typical or maximum SAR for a particular phone. Additional product specific SAR information can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/cgb/sar.  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 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.  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 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 •”Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best possible information on possible effects of wireless phone 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 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.   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 phone 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 phone is held, or which model of phone is used.  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). 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 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.       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 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.  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.    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 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.        Do wireless phone 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  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¡± 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.  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. 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  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.

 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:  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. 2 When  available,  use  a  hands-free  device.  If  possible,  add  an  additional  layer  of convenience  and  safety  to  your  wireless  phone  with  one  of  the  many  hands  free accessories available today. 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  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 phone 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 phone! 9 Use your wireless phone 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. 10Call 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 phone safely when driving.” For  more  information,  please  call  1-888-901-SAFE,  or  visit  our  web-site  www.wow-com.com Provided by the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association Operating Environment
 Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always switch your phone off whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or danger. When connecting the phone 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 (held to your ear with the antenna pointing over your shoulder).   Using Your Phone 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 phone. Consult the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.  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. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch off your phone immediately.  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. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch your phone 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.

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  phone  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  phone  is  unable  to  find  a  signal  after  15  minutes  of  searching,  a  Power  Save feature is automatically activated. If your phone 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 phone returns to standby mode.  Maintaining Your Phone¡¯s Peak Performance For  the best care  of  your phone, only authorized personnel  should  service  your  phone and accessories. Faulty service may void the warranty. There  are  several  simple  guidelines  to  operating  your  phone  properly  and  maintaining safe, satisfactory service. • Hold the phone with the antenna raised, fully-extended and over your shoulder. • Try not to hold, bend or twist the phone¡¯s antenna. • Don¡¯t use the phone if the antenna is damaged. • Speak directly into the phone¡¯s receiver. • Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove the battery. If it is inoperable, call Customer Care for service.

Standby  and  talk  times  will  vary  depending  on  phone  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  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 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 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℃(32 ℉). •  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 phone 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 your phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small children and pets. They may accidentally damage these things or choke on small parts. • Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits. • Do not use the phone with a wet hand. Doing so may cause an electric shock to you or damage to the phone. •  Do  not  use  or  store  the  phone  in  dusty,  dirty  areas,  as  its  moving  parts  may  be damaged. • Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics. • Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone warms up to its normal operating temperature,  moisture  can  form  inside  the  phone,  which  may  damage  the  phone¡¯s electronic circuit boards. •  Do  not  drop,  knock  or  shake  the  phone.  Rough  handling  can  break  internal  circuit boards. • Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water solution. • Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device¡¯s moving parts and prevent proper operation. • Do not put the phone in or on heating devices, such as a microwave oven, a stove or a radiator. The phone may explode when overheated. • When the phone or battery gets wet, the label indicating water damage inside the phone changes  color.  In  this  case,  phone  repairs  are  no  longer  guaranteed  by  the manufacturer¡¯s warranty, even if the warranty for your phone has not expired.   • If your phone 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  phone  and  violate  regulations  governing  radio devices. • If the phone, 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.
