Precautions When Using Batteries•Never use any charger or battery that is damaged inany 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 greatlyaffected by the signal strength on the cellularnetwork and the parameters set by the networkoperator.•Battery charging times depend on the remainingbattery charge and the type of battery and chargerused. The battery can be charged and dischargedhundreds 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 anew battery.•If left unused, a fully charged battery will dischargeitself over time.K e y G u a r dThe key guard feauter helps avoid accedental keypresses withoug blocking incoming calls or messages.Key guard is disabled when you receive an incoming calland is automatically reactivated when the call iscompleted.
73Health and Safety I n f o r m a t i o nExposure to Radio Frequency (RF) SignalsYour wireless phone is a radio transmitter andreceiver. It is designed and manufactured not toexceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the FederalCommunications Commission of the U.S.Government. These limits are part of comprehensiveguidelines and establish permitted levels of RFenergy for the general population. The guidelines arebased on the safety standards previously set by bothU.S. and international standards bodies:• American National Standards Institute (ANSI)IEEE. C95.1-1992•National Council on Radiation Protection andMeasurement (NCRP). Report 86. 1986• International Commission on Non-IonizingRadiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996•Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6.The standards include a substantial safety marginddesigned to assure the safety of all persons,regardless of age and health.The exposure standard for wireless mobile phonesemploys a unit of measurement known as theSpecific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit setby the FCC is 1.6W/kg *. *In the U.S. 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 ofsafety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations inm e a s u r e m e n t s .
7574Health and Safety InformationTests for SAR are conducted using standard operatingpositions specified by the FCC with the phonetransmitting at its highest certified power level in alltested frequency bands. Although the SAR isdetermined at the highest certified power level, theactual SAR level of the phone while operation can bewell below the maximum value. This is because thephone is designed to operate at multiple power levelsso as to use only the power required to reach thenetwork. In general, the closer you are to a wirelessbase station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a phone model is available for sale to thepublic, it must be tested and certified to the FCC thatit does not exceed the limit established by thegovernment-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 bythe FCC for each model. (Body-worn measurementsmay differ among phone models, depending uponavailable accessories and FCC requirements). Whilethere may be differences between the SAR levels ofvarious phones and at various positions, they all meetthe government requirement for safe exposure.For body worn operation, to maintain compliance withFCC RF exposure guidelines, use only Samsung-approved accessories. When carrying the phone whileit is on, use the specific Samsung-supplied orapproved carrying case, holster, or other body-wornaccessory.Use of non-Samsung-approved accessories mayviolate FCC RF exposure guidelines and should beavoided.For additional information concerning exposure toradio frequency signals, see the following websites:Federal Communications Commission (FCC) RF Safety program (select “Information on HumanExposure to RF Fields from Cellular and PCS RadioTransmitters”):http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafetyCellular Telecommunications IndustryAssociation (CTIA): http://www.wow-com.comWorld Health Organization (WHO) International Commission on Non-lonizing RadiationProtection (select Qs & As):http://www.who.int/emfUnited Kingdom, National RadiologicalProtection Board: http://www.nrpb.org.ukU.S.Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Center for Devices and Radiological Health:http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/consumer/Health and Safety Information

87G l o s s a r yAirtime -Actual time spent talking on the wirelessphone. Most carriers bill customers based onhow many minutes of airtime they use eachmonth.Antenna -A device for transmitting or receivingsignals. The size and shape of antennas isdetermined, in part, by the frequency of thesignal they receive. Wireless phones and thebase station must have antennas.Base Station - The fixed radio transmitter/receiver thatmaintains communications with mobileradio telephones within a given area.(Typically called a cell or cell site)CDMA -(Code Division Multiple Access) A spread-spectrum approach to digital transmission.With CDMA, each conversion is digitized andthen tagged with a code. The mobile phonedeciphers only a particular code to pick theright conversation off the air. The transmittedsignal is just above noise level across theavailable bandwidth.Channel - Communications signals transmit along pathscalled channels.Codec - Compression & Decompression.Deactivation -The process of rendering a wirelessphone inactive.
89G l o s s a r y88G l o s s a r yLED -(Light Emitting Diode) Commonly used to refer toa small light on the wireless phone or on theDesktop Charger. The LED lights on the phone toindicate an incoming call. The lights on thecharger indicate that battery charging is takingplace.Prepend -The addition of a prefix, such as an areacode, to a phone number.RF - Radio FrequencyRoaming -The ability to use a wireless phone to makeand receive calls in places outside of thehome service area.Service Charge -The amount paid each month toreceive wireless service.Standby Time -The amount of time a fully chargedwireless portable or transportablephone can be on and idle without beingin use. (See Talk Time)Talk Time -The length of time a person can talk on aportable or transportable wireless phonewithout recharging the battery.Vocoder - Voice Coder. A device used to convert speechinto digital signals.Wireless - Radio-based Systems that allowtransmission of telephone or data signalsthrough the air without a physicalconnection, such as a metal wire (copper) orfiber optic cable.DTMF - (Dual-tone Modulated Frequency ) You sendDTMF signals when you enter numbers bypressing the digit keys.EVRC -(Enhanced Variable Rate Codec) EVRC is a newglobal standard for compressing anddecompressing voice signals. EVRCuses a lowerbit rate (the number of bits sent per second)than existing CDMA vocoders, while providingsignificant improvements in voice quality. Thistechnology enables your phone to providesuperb voice quality while benefiting from theability to process more cellular voice calls usingless bandwidth than the voice codecs in CDMAnetworks today.Frequency -A measure based on time, as one or morewaves per second, in an electrical or lightwave information signal. A signal’sfrequency is stated in cycles-per-second orHertz (Hz).Hands-Free -A feature that permits a driver to use awireless phone without lifting or holdingthe handset - an important safety featurefor automobiles, tractors and most othermotorized vehicles.LCD -(Liquid Crystal Display) Commonly used to refer tothe screen display on the wireless phone.
