Dynamic Noise Suppression from Audience
Your phone is equipped with an advanced voice processing chip that delivers clear mobile calls by suppressing background noise,
intermittent sounds (like a siren or nearby conversation), and echoes, allowing you to hear and be heard nearly anywhere.
How Does It Work?
Based on the intelligence of the human hearing system, the technology:
•
•
Captures, evaluates and distinguishes all the sound signals surrounding your phone, and the person you're speaking with.
Then isolates the primary voice in conversation and filters out the background noise - so the person you're calling hears only your voice, without disturbing
background noise.
•
Dynamically equalizes and adjusts voice volume to optimize your calling experience, so you can hear clearly and don't need to speak louder to overcome
surrounding noise.

Charging the Battery
Note: Verify that the battery is installed prior to connecting the wall charger. If
both the wall charger is connected and the battery is not installed, the
handset will power cycle continuously and prevent proper operation.
Failure to unplug the wall charger before you remove the battery, can
cause the phone to become damaged.
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. A wall
charger, which is used for charging the battery, is included with
your phone. Use only approved batteries and chargers. Ask your
local Samsung dealer for further details.
Before using your phone for the first time, you must fully charge
the battery. A discharged battery recharges fully in approximately
four hours.

Important!: If your handset has a touch screen display, please note that a
touch screen responds best to a light touch from the pad of your
finger or a non-metallic stylus. Using excessive force or a metallic
object when pressing on the touch screen may damage the
tempered glass surface and void the warranty.
Low Battery Indicator
When the battery level is low and only a few minutes of talk time
remain, a warning tone sounds and the “Low battery” message
repeats at regular intervals on the display. In this condition, your
phone conserves its remaining battery power, by dimming the
backlight.
When the battery level becomes too low, the phone automatically
turns off.
Note: This illustration displays both the correct and incorrect orientation for
connecting the charger. If the charger is incorrectly connected, damage
to the accessory port will occur therefore voiding the phone’s warranty.
5. When charging is finished, first unplug the charger’s power
plug from the AC wall outlet, then disconnect the charger’s
connector from the phone.

Joining Contact Information
Note: Typically this is the same contact with a different name or account
information.
This device can synchronize with multiple accounts containing
your contact information (such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace,
Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, Google). When you synchronize
your phone with those accounts, each account creates a separate
contact entry in the Contacts list.
3. Press
and then tap Join contact.
4. Tap the second contact entry (the entry in which to link).
The second contact is now linked with the first and the
account information is merged into one screen.
If one of your contacts (e.g., Amy Smith) has a regular email
account that you maintain in Gmail, but also has a Facebook
account under her maiden and married name, as well as a Twitter
account, when you merge those accounts into your Contacts list
you can join all of her entries and view the information in one
record.
Note: The information is still maintained in both entries, but displays in one
record for easier viewing when you link the contacts.
Important!: It is the second contact image that is displayed for both, but the
first contact’s name that is used. For example: If Amy (original
entry) is joined with Julie (second entry). Julie appears to
disappear and only Amy remains. Tap the Amy entry (showing the
Julie image) to view both.
Joining contact information makes sending messages easy. You
can select any account email address or information from one
screen, versus searching multiple, individual screens to locate the
desired account information.
5. Tap the main linked contact to view the contact information
you linked. The contacts and information displays with an
icon next to the contact name to indicate what type of
account information is contained in the entry.

Sending a Namecard
Marking a Contact as Default
A Namecard contains contact information, and can be sent to
recipients as a Virtual Business Card (V-card) attachment using
Bluetooth, Gmail, or a message.
When you use applications such as the Voice Dialer or other
messaging type applications, the application needs to know which
information is primary (default) in a contact entry list. For example,
if you say “Call John Smith” and you have three phone numbers
for John Smith, the Voice dialer looks for the “default” number or

Section 13: Health and Safety Information
Handle and dispose of batteries and chargers with care
Safety Warnings
Keep phone from children and pets
Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers specifically
designed for your phone. Incompatible batteries and chargers can
cause serious injuries or damage to your phone.
Keep your phone and all accessories out of the reach of small
children or animals. Small parts may cause choking or serious
injury if swallowed. Children could also damage the phone, dial
911 by mistake or make calls that increase your phone bill.
Never dispose of batteries or phones in a fire. Follow all local
regulations when disposing used batteries or phones.
Never place batteries or phones on or in heating devices, such as
microwave ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode
when overheated.
Protect your hearing
Excessive exposure to sound at high volume can cause hearing
damage. Always turn the volume down before plugging in the
earphones and use only the minimum volume setting necessary to
hear your conversation or music.
Never crush or puncture the battery. Avoid exposing the battery to
high external pressure, which can lead to an internal short circuit
and overheating.
Install mobile devices and equipment with caution
Avoid interference with pacemakers
Ensure that any mobile devices 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.
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.

UNIT IS INTENDED TO BE CORRECTLY ORIENTATED IN A
VERTICAL OR HORIZONTAL OR FLOOR MOUNT POSITION.
Ensure maximum battery and charger life
• Avoid charging batteries for more than a week, as overcharging
may shorten battery life.
• Over time, unused batteries will discharge and must be
recharged before use.
Important usage information
Signal Strength
• Disconnect chargers from power sources when not in use.
• Use batteries only for their intended purpose.
Handle SIM and memory cards with care
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.
• 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.
• Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity, and electrical
noise from other devices.
• Frequent writing and erasing will shorten the life span of memory
cards.
198
• Do not touch gold-coloured contacts or terminals with your
fingers or metal objects. If dirty, wipe the card with a soft cloth.
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.
Ensure access to emergency services
This phone is compliant with RoHS.
Emergency calls from your phone may not be possible in some
areas or circumstances. Before travelling in remote or
undeveloped areas, plan an alternate method of contacting
emergency services personnel.
Radio frequency safety
The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP standards
described below. In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) 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 updated standard in a regulation.
In August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of
the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by
the National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements
(NCRP).
Correct disposal of this product
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.
Correct disposal of batteries in this product
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 reference
levels. If batteries are not properly disposed of, these substances
can cause harm to human health or the environment.
Health and Safety Information

Acknowledging special precautions and Industry Canada
notice
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR)
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF
energy absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits of a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing,
measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how
much RF the phone emits. All phone models are tested at their
highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation,
the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than the level
reported to the FCC. This is because of a variety of factors
including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone design and
other factors. What is important to remember is that each phone
meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not
represent a variation in safety.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation; if this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a
substantial margin of safety. SAR values at or below the federal
standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for use by the public.
• Reorient / relocate the receiving antenna.
The highest reported SAR value of the T989D is 1.10 W/kg.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult your dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
