content (images, video, Web pages) to properly

display based on the current angle (some screens

may not automatically change).

orient is the Home screen. This screens requires you

slide out the QWERTY keyboard. An example of a screen

that automatically re-orients by moving the device is the

Section 7: Entering Text

This section outlines how to select the desired text

input mode when entering characters into your

phone. This section also describes how to use the

Swype keyboard to ease the text entry method.

Entering Text with Onscreen Keyboard

When you activate a field where you can enter text,

numbers, symbols, etc., you can either use the

onscreen keyboard or QWERTY keyboard.

Onscreen keyboard entry can be done in either

Portrait or Landscape orientations. The Landscape

orientation provides more space and results in

slightly bigger onscreen keys. If you find that you

prefer to enter text via the onscreen keyboard, and

need bigger keys, use this orientation.

Activating the Landscape Keyboard

Although the device will automatically rotate its

screen orientation to Landscape once the QWERTY

keyboard slides out, the Samsung Intercept™ can

also be set to automatically change its orientation. To

use the onscreen keyboard in Landscape mode, this

feature must first be enabled.

See “Changing the Screen Orientation” on page 25.

Selecting a Text Input Mode

Your device provides convenient ways to enter

letters, numbers, and symbols whenever you are

prompted to enter text (for example, when adding a

Contacts entry or when using email and text

messaging).

In this section we’ll cover the steps necessary to

enter text using the onscreen keyboard, where the

touchscreen is the primary method of both text and

character entry.

Some characters and types, such as some symbols and

emoticons, are not accessible from the onscreen

keyboard.

1. From a screen where you can enter text, tap

the input field to reveal the onscreen keyboard.

2. Select one of the following Text mode options:

•ABC

to use alphabetic characters from the onscreen

keyboard (See page 52.)

• ?123

to enter numbers by pressing the numbers on

the onscreen keyboard. (See page 53.)

Tip:

• Voice Input

allows the device to use its built-in

voice recognition software to hear your voice and

transcript it directly into text.

To change the input method:

through an ISP (Internet Service Provider) account

(such as Exchange), or if you wish to use your device

to access your corporate email through a VPN (Virtual

Private Network), you will first need to set up an IMAP

or POP account.

IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) - This mail

retrieval protocol is frequently used in large networks and

commercial and institutional settings. IMAP4 is the

current standard.

•

POP (Post Office Protocol) - This protocol is supported by

most ISPs and is currently more common among

consumer applications. POP3 is the current standard.

Section 11: Connections

This section describes navigating the Google browser

to navigate the mobile web. It also explains how to

quickly pair and use a Bluetooth.

About Bluetooth

Bluetooth™ is a short-range communications

technology that allows you to connect wirelessly to a

number of Bluetooth devices, such as headsets,

hands-free car kits, Bluetooth-enabled handhelds,

computers, printers, and wireless devices. The

Bluetooth communication range is usually up to

approximately 30 feet.

Turning Bluetooth On and Off

By default, your device’s Bluetooth feature is set to

Off. Turning Bluetooth on activates the internal

Bluetooth antenna.

Note:

Activating Bluetooth can drain your battery faster and

reduce your available usage times. It is recommended

that if you do not need it active, turn it off.

It is also recommended to turn off your Bluetooth within

locations that prohibit its use.

To turn Bluetooth on:

1. Press ➔ and tap

➔

Wireless &

networks

.

2. Tap the

Bluetooth

field to activate the feature

(checkmark indicates active). When active,

appears within the Status area.

To turn Bluetooth off:

networks

.

2. Tap to remove the green checkmark and

deactivate Bluetooth.

Wi-Fi

About Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi (short for "wireless fidelity") is a term used for

certain types of wireless local area networks (WLAN).

These device types use an 802.11 wireless

specification to transmit and receive wireless data.

Wi-Fi communication requires access to an existing

and accessible Wireless Access Point (WAP). These

WAPs can either be Open (unsecured) as within most

Hot Spots, or Secured (requiring knowledge of the

Router name and password).

Turning Wi-Fi On and Off

By default, your device’s Wi-Fi feature is turned off.

Turning Wi-Fi on makes your device able to discover

and connect to compatible in-range WAPs.

Turn Wi-Fi on:

1. Press ➔ and tap ➔

connected to the network.

To manually add your new network connection:

1. Touch Add Wi-Fi network.

2. Enter the Network SSID. This is the name of

your Wireless Access Point.

3. Tap the Security field and select a security

option. This must match the current security

setting on your target WAP.

4. If secured, you will also need to enter your

WAP’s password. The show password option,

reveals the password as you type it vs only

showing asterisks (

****

).

5. Tap Save to store the new information and

connect to your target WAP.

92

Note:

The next time your device connects to a previously

accessed or secured wireless network, you are not

prompted to enter the WAP key again, unless you reset

your device back to its factory default settings.

Section 14: Health and Safety Information

This section outlines the safety precautions

associated with using your phone. These safety

precautions should be followed to safely use your

phone.

Health and Safety Information

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Certification

Information

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 operation, this phone has been tested

and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when used

with an accessory that contains no metal and that

positions the phone a minimum of 1.5 cm from the

body.

Health and Safety Information 119

Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance

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.

Health and Safety Information 121

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.

122

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.

Health and Safety Information 123

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.

124

•

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.

Health and Safety Information 125

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.

Road Safety

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. Always comply with road safety regulations

on using a mobile phone while driving. Using a mobile

phone while driving can be dangerous.

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.

Health and Safety Information 127

4. Let the person you are speaking with know you

are driving. 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, 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.

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.

10. Call 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.

Responsible Listening

Caution!:

Avoid potential hearing loss.

Damage to hearing occurs when a person is exposed

to loud sounds over time. The risk of hearing loss

increases as sound is played louder and for longer

durations. Prolonged exposure to loud sounds

(including music) is the most common cause of

preventable hearing loss. Some scientific research

suggests that using portable audio devices, such as

portable music players and cellular telephones, at

high volume settings for long durations may lead to

permanent noise-induced hearing loss. This includes

the use of headphones (including headsets, earbuds,

and Bluetooth or other wireless devices). Exposure to

very loud sound has also been associated in some

studies with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear),

hypersensitivity to sound and distorted hearing.

Individual susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss

and potential hearing problem varies. Additionally, the

amount of sound produced by a portable audio device

varies depending on the nature of the sound, the

device settings, and the headphones that are used. As

a result, there is no single volume setting that is

appropriate for everyone or for every combination of

sound, settings and equipment.

You should follow some commonsense

recommendations when using any portable audio

device:

•

Always turn the volume down before plugging the

earphones into an audio source.

•

Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the

lowest volume at which you can hear adequately.

•

When using headphones, turn the volume down if you

cannot hear the people speaking near you or if the person

sitting next to you can hear what you are listening to.

•

Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings.

If you choose to listen to your portable device in a noisy

environment, use noise-cancelling headphones to block

out background environmental noise. By blocking

background environment noise, noise cancelling

headphones should allow you to hear the music at lower

volumes than when using earbuds.

•

Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume

increases, less time is required before you hearing could

be affected.

•

Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud

noises, such as rock concerts, that might cause

temporary hearing loss. Temporary hearing loss might

cause unsafe volumes to sound normal.

•

Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If

you experience ringing in your ears, hear muffled speech

or experience any temporary hearing difficulty after

listening to your portable audio device, discontinue use

and consult your doctor.

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 if you

are using an external antenna).

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.

Implantable Medical Devices

A minimum separation of six (6) inches should be

maintained between a handheld wireless phone and

an implantable medical device, such as a pacemaker

or implantable cardioverter defibrillator, to avoid

potential interference with the device.

Persons who have such devices:

•

Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) inches

from their implantable medical device when the phone is

turned ON;

•

Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;

•

Should use the ear opposite the implantable medical

device to minimize the potential for interference;

•

Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any

reason to suspect that interference is taking place;

•

Should read and follow the directions from the

manufacturer of your implantable medical device. If you

have any questions about using your wireless phone with

such a device, consult your health care provider.

For more information see:

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html

FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC)

Regulations for Wireless Devices

On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications

Commission (FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01-

309 modified the exception of wireless phones under

the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to

require digital wireless phones be compatible with

hearing-aids.

The intent of the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable

access to telecommunications services for persons

with hearing disabilities.

While some wireless phones are used near some

hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants),

users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining

noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than

others to this interference noise, and phones also vary

in the amount of interference they generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed a

rating system for wireless phones, to assist hearing

device users find phones that may be compatible with

their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated.

Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a

label located on the box.

Health and Safety Information 131

The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary

depending on the user's hearing device and hearing

loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable

to interference, you may not be able to use a rated

phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your

hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your

personal needs.

M-Ratings

: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC

requirements and are likely to generate less

interference to hearing devices than phones that are

not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two

ratings.

T-Ratings

: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC

requirements and are likely to generate less

interference to hearing devices than phones that are

not labeled. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.

Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing

device manufacturer or hearing health professional

may help you find this rating. Higher ratings mean

that the hearing device is relatively immune to

interference noise. The hearing aid and wireless

phone rating values are then added together.

A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use.

A sum of 6 is considered for best use.

In the above example, if a hearing aid meets the M2

level rating and the wireless phone meets the M3

level rating, the sum of the two values equal M5. This

is synonymous for T ratings. This should provide the

hearing aid user with "normal usage" while using

their hearing aid with the particular wireless phone.

"Normal usage" in this context is defined as a signal

quality that is acceptable for normal operation.

The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U

mark. The T mark is intended to be synonymous with

the UT mark. The M and T marks are recommended

by the Alliance for Telecommunications Industries

Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced

in Section 20.19 of the FCC Rules.

The HAC rating and measurement procedure are

described in the American National Standards

Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.

M3 + M2 = 5 T3 + T2 = 5

132

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical devices, consult

the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is

adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your

physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this

information. Switch your phone off in health care

facilities when any regulations posted in these areas

instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities

may be using equipment that could be sensitive to

external RF energy.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed or

inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor

vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its

representative regarding your vehicle. You should also

consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has

been added to your vehicle.

Posted Facilities

Switch your phone off in any facility where posted

notices require you to do so.

Potentially Explosive Environments

Switch your phone off when in any area with a

potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs

and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an

explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even

death.

Users are advised to switch the phone off while at a

refueling point (service station). Users 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.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are

often but not always clearly marked. They include

below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage

facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such

as propane or butane), areas where the air contains

chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal

powders, and any other area where you would

normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

Emergency Calls

This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using

radio signals, wireless and landline networks as well

as user-programmed functions, which cannot

guarantee connection in all conditions areas or

circumstances. Therefore, you should never rely

solely on any wireless phone for essential

communications (medical emergencies, for example).

Before traveling in remote or underdeveloped areas,

plan an alternate method of contacting emergency

services personnel.

Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone

must be switched on and in a service area with

adequate signal strength. Emergency calls may not be

possible on all wireless phone networks or when

certain network services and/or phone features are in

use. Check with local service providers.

Health and Safety Information 133

To make an emergency call:

1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.

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

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.

Understanding How Your Phone Operates

Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and

receiver. When it's turned on, it receives and

transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. When you use

your phone, the system handling your call controls the

power level. This power can range from 0.006 watts

to 0.2 watts in digital mode.

Maintaining Your Phone's Peak Performance

For the best care of your phone, only authorized

personnel should service your phone and accessories.

Allowing unqualified personnel to service your phone

may result in damage to your phone and may void the

warranty.

There are several simple guidelines to operating your

phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory

service.

•

To ensure that the Hearing Aid Compatibility rating for

your phone is maintained, secondary transmitters such as

Bluetooth and WLAN components must be disabled during

a call.

For more information, refer to

“Turning Wi-Fi

On and Off”

on page 91.

Health and Safety Information 135

•

If your phone is equipped with an external antenna, hold

the phone with the antenna raised, fully-extended and

over your shoulder.

•

Do not hold, bend or twist the phone's antenna, if

applicable.

•

Do not use the phone if the antenna is damaged.

•

If your phone is equipped with an internal antenna,

obstructing the internal antenna could inhibit call

performance.

•

Speak directly into the phone's receiver.

•

If your phone has a SIM or memory card: (i) handle the

SIM or memory card with care, (ii) do not remove a card

while the phone is transferring or accessing information,

as this could result in loss of data and/or damage to the

card of phone, (iii) protect cards from strong shocks,

static electricity, and electrical noise from other devices,

and (iv) do not touch gold-colored contacts or terminals

with your fingers or metal objects (if dirty, wipe the card

with a soft cloth).

•

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.

Availability of Various Features/

Ringtones

Many services and features are network dependent

and may require additional subscription and/or usage

charges. Not all features are available for purchase or

use in all areas. Downloadable Ringtones may be

available at an additional cost. Other conditions and

restrictions may apply. See your service provider for

additional information.

Battery Standby and Talk Time

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

•

Avoid dropping the cell phone. Dropping it, especially on a

hard surface, can potentially cause damage to the phone

and battery. If you suspect damage to the phone or

battery, take it to a service center for inspection.

•

Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any

way.

•

Do not modify or remanufacture the battery as this could

result in serious safety hazards. Use batteries only for

their intended use.

•

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.

•

Follow battery usage, storage and charging guidelines

found in the user’s guide.

•

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 and must be recharged before use.

136

•

Use only Samsung-approved batteries and recharge your

battery only with Samsung-approved chargers which are

specifically designed for your phone. 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.

•

Do not use incompatible cell phone batteries and

chargers. Some Web sites and second-hand dealers, not

associated with reputable manufacturers and carriers,

might be selling incompatible or even counterfeit batteries

and chargers. Consumers should purchase manufacturer

or carrier recommended products and accessories. If

unsure about whether a replacement battery or charger is

compatible, contact the manufacturer of the battery or

charger.

•

Misuse or use of incompatible phones, batteries, and

charging devices could result in damage to the equipment

and a possible risk of fire, explosion, leakage serious

injuries, damage to your phone, or other serious hazard.

•

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, (below 0 °C

(32 °F) or over 45 °C (113 °F) such as in a car in summer

or winter conditions, as you will reduce the charging

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 °C (32 °F).

•

Do not place the battery in, on or near areas that may get

very hot, such as on or near a microwave oven, cooking

surface, cooking appliance, iron, or radiator. Batteries

may explode when overheated.

•

Do not get your phone or battery wet. Even though they

will dry and appear to operate normally, the circuitry could

slowly corrode and pose a safety hazard.

•

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.

•

Do not permit a battery out of the phone to come in

contact with metal objects, such as coins, keys or jewelry.

•

Do not crush, puncture or put a high degree of pressure

on the battery as this can cause an internal short-circuit,

resulting in overheating.

•

Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local

regulations. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in

household or business trash may be prohibited. Do not

handle a damaged or leaking Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery.

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.

working properly, take it to your nearest qualified service

facility. The personnel there will assist you, and if

necessary, arrange for service.

•

Dispose of phones in accordance with local regulations.

In some areas, the disposal of phones in household or

business trash may be prohibited. For safe disposal

options for phones, contact your nearest Samsung

authorized service center.
