FCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION
SAR Information & FCC ID Labeling
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of
the United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326
adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio
frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated
transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety
standard previously set by both U.S. and international standards
bodies. The design of this phone complies with the FCC
guidelines and these international standards.
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality,
damage the phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations.
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may
result. Please contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations using
the optional belt-clip/holster placed 0.7 inches (1.8cm) from the
body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 0.7 inches (1.8cm) must be maintained
between the user’s body and the phone, including the antenna,
whether extended or retracted. The use of third-party belt-clips/
holsters with no metallic components that provide the minimum
separation distance of 0.7 inches (1.8cm) can be used to satisfy
FCC RF exposure requirements. The use of non-tested
accessories or other body-worn operations may not comply with
FCC RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. Contact
your local dealer for optional accessory items.
Vehicle Mounted External Antenna (optional, if available.)
A minimum separation distance of 7.9 inches (20cm) must be
maintained Between a person and the vehicle mounted external
antenna to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC
website at www.fcc.gov
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to
radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission 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
standards that were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough 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 mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement know as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The
SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR 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.
Before a phone model 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. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for
use at the ear is XXXXX and when worn on the body, as described in
this user guide, is XXXXX . (Body-worn measurements differ among
phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements). [Labeling Committee note: if applicable, if bodyworn SARs are required]. While there may be differences
between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions,
they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
ii
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model
phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance
with the FCC RF emission 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 XXX XXXX.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can
be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry
Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com (see note).

* In the United States 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.

Reference Information
Using the Batteries
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion
standard battery.
Additional batteries are also available (ask your
SAMSUNG dealer for further details):
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 times
are greatly affected by the signal strength on the
cellular network and the parameters set by the
network operator.
• Battery charging times depend 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.
96
Reference Information
• 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 life-time 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 °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 back of 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-circuit.
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
regulations. Always recycle. Do not dispose of
batteries in a fire.
97
Reference Information
Safety Information
Road Safety
• Remember, road safety always comes first!
• Do not use a hand-held phone while driving a
vehicle. Always park the vehicle before having a
conversation.
• Make sure that the phone is stored safely and will
not fall or be broken in the event of a collision or
emergency stop.
• The use of an alert device to operate a vehicle’s
lights or horn on public roads is not permitted.
• Only qualified personnel should install or service the
phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may
be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty
applicable to the unit.
• Electronic fuel injection, anti-skid braking, electronic
cruise control or any other electronic systems may
malfunction due to the lack of protection from radio
signals. Check regularly that all cellular phone
equipment in your vehicle is mounted and operating
correctly.
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 (in a hospital for
example).
98
Reference Information
• Operation of any radio transmitting equipment,
including cellular phones, may interfere with
inadequately protected medical devices. Consult
a physician or the manufacturer of the medical
device if you have any questions. Other electronic
equipment may also be subject to interference.
• As with other mobile radio transmitting
equipment, you are advised that for satisfactory
operations and personal
safety, the equipment should only be used in the
normal operating position.
• Always switch off the phone when at a refuelling
point (service station). You 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.
• Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or
explosive materials in the same compartment as
the phone, its parts or accessories.
• Switch off your cellular phone when in an aircraft.
The use of cellular phones in an aircraft is illegal
and may be
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft or
disrupt the cellular network. Failure to observe
these instructions may lead to the suspension or
denial of cellular telephone services to the
offender, legal action or both.
99
Reference Information
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 the warranty
obligations and enjoy this product for many years.
• Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories
out of the reach of children.
• Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and
liquids containing minerals will corrode the
electronic circuits.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas
as its components 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 temperature),
moisture can form inside the phone, which may
damage the electronic circuits.
• Do not attempt to open the phone. Non-expert
handling of the phone may damage it.
• Do not drop or knock the phone. Rough handling
may damage the internal circuits.
100
Reference Information
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or
strong detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it
with a soft cloth slightly dampened in mild, soapy
water.
• If the phone or any of its accessories are not
working properly, take them to your nearest
qualified service centre. The personnel there will
assist you, and if necessary, arrange for the phone
to be repaired.
Emergency Calls
Important! This phone, like any cellular phone, uses
radio signals, cellular and landline
networks, as well as user-programmed
functions that cannot guarantee
connection in all conditions. Therefore,
you should never rely solely on any
cellular 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 cellular signal strength.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular
phone networks or when certain network services
and/or phone features are in use. Check with local
cellular service providers.
