Power Saving Settings
Control your device’s data delivery and battery usage through this settings menu.
Active applications, light levels, Bluetooth usage, and GPS functionality all act to drain your
battery. The following is a list of helpful tips that can help conserve your battery power:
Reduce your backlight on time.
Turn Bluetooth off when not in use.
Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use.
Turn 4G off when not in use
Turn off Sprint Hotspot (Wi-Fi hotspot) services when not in use. This is one of the
largest drains on your battery as it is not only transmitting a Wi-Fi connection to your
device but is also doing it while using a 4G connection.
Deactivate the GPS when not needed. Most applications using this function will
periodically query the GPS satellites for your current location; each query drains your
battery.
Do not wait until your battery is completely depleted before charging your device.
Repeating this process of a complete discharge and recharge can over time reduce the
storage capacity of any battery.
Turn off Automatic application sync.
Use the Power saving widget to deactivate hardware functions such as Wi-Fi,
Bluetooth, GPS, Synchronization, or LCD brightness setting.
Check the Battery use screen to review what features or functions have been consuming
your battery resources.
Check the Running Services and close any unnecessary applications.
Animated wallpapers use an increased amount of power and memory. Change your Live
Wallpaper to a non-animated Wallpaper gallery or Gallery image.

Health and safety information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Certification Information (SAR)
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 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 devices 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 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 standard operating positions accepted by the FCC
with the device 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 device while operat ing 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 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 device are performed in positions and locations as required
by the FCC.
SAR information on this and other model devices can be viewed on-line at
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. Please use the device FCC ID number for search,
A3LSPHP500. Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the battery pack to find
the number. 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. Additional product specific SAR information can also be
obtained at http://www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/specific-absorption-rate-sar-cellular-teledevices
Consumer Information on Wireless Devices
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
devices. The FDA publication includes the following information:
What kinds of devices are the subject of this update?
The term wireless device refers here to hand-held wireless devices with built-in
antennas, often called “cell,” “mobile,” or “PCS” devices. These types of wireless
devices can expose the user to measurable radio frequency energy (RF) because of
the short distance between the device 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 device 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 devices,” which have a base unit
connected to the teledevice 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 devices pose a health hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are
associated with using wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that wireless
devices are absolutely safe. Wireless devices 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 devices?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting consumer
products such as wireless devices before they can be sold, as it does with new drugs
or medical devices. However, the agency has authority to take action if wireless
devices 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 devices
to notify users of the health hazard and to repair, replace or recall the devices so that
the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions, FDA has
urged the wireless device 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 devices;
“Design wireless devices 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 devices with the best possible
information on possible effects of wireless device 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 devices with the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). All devices 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 devices.
FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless device networks rely upon.
While these base stations operate at higher power than do the wireless devices
themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these base stations are typically
thousands of times lower than those they can get from wireless devices. 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 devices
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 devices, 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 devices 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
devices RF exposures. However, none of the studies can answer questions about
long-term exposures, since the average period of device use in these studies was
around three years.
What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless devices
poses a health risk?
A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually
using wireless devices 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 devices. Many factors affect this measurement,
such as the angle at which the device is held, or which model of device is used.
What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of
wireless device 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 device 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 device 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 device?
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 device will reduce RF exposure.
“If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless device 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 device away from your body.
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that wireless devices 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
device use.
What about children using wireless devices?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless devices,
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 devices. Reducing the time of wireless device 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 devices 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 device
causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless
device use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific
evidence that any health hazard exists.
Do hands-free kits for wireless devices reduce risks from exposure to RF
emissions?
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from wireless
devices, there is no reason to believe that hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free
kits can be used with wireless devices for convenience and comfort. These systems
reduce the absorption of RF energy in the head because the device, which is the
source of the RF emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand,
if the device 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 devices 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 device accessories that claim to shield the head from RF radiation
work?
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from wireless
devices, 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 device cases, while others involve nothing more than a
metallic accessory attached to the device. 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 device. The device 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 device 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 device interference with medical equipment?
Radio frequency energy (RF) from wireless devices 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 teledevices. 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 device EMI. FDA has tested wireless devices 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 devices so that no interference occurs when a person
uses a compatible device 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 devices 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.

Using Your Device 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 device. Consult the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches)
be maintained between a wireless device and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with the independent research and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
should always keep the device more than 15 cm
(6 inches) from their pacemaker when the device is switched on.
should not carry the device 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
device off immediately.

Product Performance
Getting the Most Out of Your Signal Reception
The quality of each data connection you make or receive depends on the signal
strength in your area. Your device 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 device is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching, a Power Save
feature is automatically activated. If your device 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 device returns to standby mode.

Battery Usage Time
Usage times will vary depending on device usage patterns and conditions. Battery
power consumption depends on factors such as network configuration, signal
strength, operating temperature, features selected, frequency of mobile 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 device near the network's base station, it uses less power;
usage 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
(usage 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 device 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 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.
