GT E1150
Install mobile phones and equipment with
caution
Avoid interference with pacemakers
Reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries
Safety warnings
Maintain a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between mobile
phones and pacemakers to avoid potential interference,
as recommended by manufacturers and the independent
research group, Wireless Technology Research. If you
have any reason to suspect that your phone is interfering
with a pacemaker or other medical device, turn off the
phone immediately and contact the manufacturer of the
pacemaker or medical device for guidance.
While using your phone, hold the phone with a relaxed
grip, press the keys lightly, use special features that
reduce the number of keys you have to press (such
as templates and predictive text), and take frequent
breaks.
Ensure that any mobile phones or related equipment
installed in your vehicle are securely mounted. Avoid
placing your phone and accessories near or in an air
bag deployment area. Improperly installed wireless
equipment can cause serious injury when air bags inflate
rapidly.
Keep your phone away from small children and
pets
Keep your phone and all accessories out of reach from
small children and pets. Small parts may cause choking
or serious injury if swallowed.

fuel or chemical storage, transfer areas and blasting
areas. Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases,
or explosive materials in the same compartment as the
phone, its parts, or accessories.
Incompatible batteries and chargers can cause serious
injuries or damage to your phone.
Always turn the volume down before plugging
the earphones into an audio source and use
only the minimum volume setting necessary
to hear your conversation or music.

aids, medical devices, and other electronic devices in
homes or vehicles. Consult the manufacturers of your
electronic devices to solve any interference problems
you experience.

Avoid charging batteries for more than a week, as
overcharging may shorten battery life.
(Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment)
(Applicable in the European Union and other
European countries with separate battery
return systems)
Your phone conforms to European Union (EU) standards
that limit human exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy emitted by radio and telecommunications
equipment. These standards prevent the sale of mobile
phones that exceed a maximum exposure level (known
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 W/kg.
(Applicable in the European Union and other
European countries with separate collection
systems)
Over time, unused batteries will discharge and must
be recharged before use.
This marking on the battery, manual or
packaging indicates that the batteries in this product
should not be disposed of with other household waste at
the end of their working life. Where marked, the chemical
symbols Hg, Cd or Pb indicate that the battery contains
mercury, cadmium or lead above the reference levels
in EC Directive 2006/66. If batteries are not properly
disposed of, these substances can cause harm to
human health or the environment.
Disconnect chargers from power sources when not
in use.
This marking on the product, accessories
or literature indicates that the product and
its electronic accessories (e.g. charger, headset, USB
cable) should not be disposed of with other household
waste at the end of their working life. To prevent
possible harm to the environment or human health
from uncontrolled waste disposal, please separate
these items from other types of waste and recycle them
responsibly to promote the sustainable reuse of material
resources.
Use batteries only for their intended purpose.
During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this
model was 0.720 W/kg. In normal use, the actual SAR is
likely to be much lower, as the phone has been designed
to emit only the RF energy necessary to transmit a signal
to the nearest base station. By automatically emitting
lower levels when possible, your phone reduces your
overall exposure to RF energy.
Handle SIM cards with care
•
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 or phone.
To protect natural resources and to promote material
reuse, please separate batteries from other types of
waste and recycle them through your local, free battery
return system.
•
•
Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity,
and electrical noise from other devices.
For more information about the SAR and related EU
standards, visit the Samsung mobile phone website.
Household users should contact either the retailer where
they purchased this product, or their local government
