Usage guidelines: All about performance and safety.  Keeping tabs on signal strength. First of all , the voice quality of your Samsung Phone will always be at its best when the antenna is fully raised. If you're inside a building , reception may be better near a window.  The quality of each call you make or receive depend on the signal strength in your area. You phone will inform you of the current strength by displaying a number of the bars next to the signal strength icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger the signal.  Understanding Power Save mode.  If you're trying to use your phone in an area where the signal is too weak, the Power Save feature will automatically activate to conserve battery power when you've been unable to pick up a signal for 15 minutes. If you phone is on, it will periodically recheck service availability, or you can do so yourself manually by pressing any key. A message will be displayed on the screen any time Power Save has been activated  Understanding how your phone operates.  Your Samsung Phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it's turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency(RF) signals. Your phone operates in the frequency range 1.9 GHz and 800MHz. When your phone is in use, the system handling your call control the power level.  SCH-A330 (Dual-Band Triple-Mode)
  Radio Frequency safety.  In 1991-1992, the Institute of Engineers(IEEE) and the American National Standards Institute(ANS joined in updating ANSI's 1982 standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF signals. More than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies and industries developed this updated standard after reviewing the available body of research. In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission(FCC) adopted this update standard in a regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopt a hybrid standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements(NCRP).  The design of the Samsung Phone complies with these updated standard. Of course, if you want to limit RF exposure even further than the updated standard, you can choose to control the duration of your calls and operate your phone in the most power-ficient manner.  Maintaining your phone's peak performance.  To operate your phone properly-that is , to maintain safe and satisfactory service-you should follow these rules: ▶For best reception, extend the antenna fully. ▶Hold the phone with the antenna up and over your shoulder. ▶Do not hold phone antenna at any time. ▶Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. ▶Speak directly into the mouthpiece.

  ▶Do not use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.  ▶Never dispose of the battery by incineration.  ▶Keep the metal contacts at the top of battery clean.  ▶Do not attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.  ▶You may need to recharge the battery if it has not been used for a long period of time.  ▶Replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it will need to be replaced.  ▶Do not store the battery in high-temperature areas for long periods of time. Follow these storage rules:  Less than one month : -4℉ to 140℉(-20℃ to 50℃) More than one month : -4℉ to 113℉(-20℃ to 35℃)  Using your phone while driving.

To operate your phone safely and efficiently, you should always follow any special regulations in a given area, and turn your phone off areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.  Using your phone near other electronic devices. Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from telephones may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.  RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating and entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals. You should also check with the manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.  Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices(such as pacemakers and hearing aids) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external signals.  Turn off the phone in health care facilities and request permission before using the phone near medical equipment.  Turn off your phone before flying.  You should turn off your Samsung Phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible interference with aircraft system, U.S. Federal Aviation Administration(FAA) regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulation prohibit using your phone while the plane is in the air.  Restricting children's access to your phone.  Your phone is the a toy, and should not be played with by children. They could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or make calls that increase your telephone bills.
