Safety and usage  
information  
Comply with the following precautions to avoid  
dangerous or illegal situations and ensure peak  
performance of your device.  
Ensure that any mobile devices or related  
equipment installed in your vehicle are securely  
mounted. Avoid placing your device and  
accessories near or in an air bag deployment  
area. Improperly installed wireless equipment  
can cause serious injury when air bags inflate  
rapidly.  
Safety warnings  
Handle and dispose of batteries and  
chargers with care  
Keep your device away from small  
children and pets  
Keep your device and all accessories out of the  
reach of small children or animals. Small parts  
may cause choking or serious injury if  
swallowed.  
Use only Samsung-approved batteries and  
chargers specifically designed for your  
device. Incompatible batteries and chargers  
can cause serious injuries or damage to your  
device.  
Never dispose of batteries or devices in a  
fire. Follow all local regulations when  
disposing used batteries or devices.  
Protect your hearing  
Listening to a headset at high  
volumes can damage your hearing.  
Use only the minimum volume  
setting necessary to hear your  
conversation or music.  
Never place batteries or phones on or in  
heating devices, such as microwave ovens,  
stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode  
when overheated.  
1
Avoid interference with pacemakers  
Reduce the risk of repetitive motion  
injuries  
Maintain a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches)  
between mobile devices 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 device is  
interfering with a pacemaker or other medical  
equipment, turn off the device immediately and  
contact the manufacturer of the pacemaker or  
medical equipment for guidance.  
When sending text messages or playing games  
on your device, hold the device 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.  
Safety precautions  
Turn off the device in potentially  
explosive environments  
Drive safely at all times  
Avoid using your device while driving and obey  
all regulations that restrict the use of mobile  
devices while driving. Use hands-free  
accessories to increase your safety when  
possible.  
Do not use your device at refuelling points  
(service stations) or near fuels or chemicals.  
Turn off your device whenever directed by  
warning signs or instructions. Your device could  
cause explosions or fire in and around fuel or  
chemical storage and transfer areas or blasting  
areas. Do not store or carry flammable liquids,  
gases, or explosive materials in the same  
compartment as the device, its parts, or  
accessories.  
Follow all safety warnings and  
regulations  
Comply with any regulations that restrict the  
use of a mobile device in a certain area.  
2
Use only Samsung-approved  
accessories  
Protect batteries and chargers from  
damage  
Using incompatible accessories may damage  
your device or cause injury.  
Avoid exposing batteries to very cold or very  
hot temperatures (below 0° C/32° F or above  
45° C/113° F). Extreme temperatures can  
reduce the charging capacity and life of your  
batteries.  
Turn off the device near medical  
equipment  
Prevent batteries from contacting metal  
objects, as this can create a connection  
between the + and - terminals of your  
batteries and lead to temporary or  
permanent battery damage.  
Your device can interfere with medical  
equipment in hospitals or health care facilities.  
Follow all regulations, posted warnings, and  
directions from medical personnel.  
Turn off the device or disable the  
Never use a damaged charger or battery.  
wireless functions when in an aircraft  
Risk of explosion if a battery is replaced by  
an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries  
according to the instructions.  
Your device can cause interference with aircraft  
equipment. Follow all airline regulations and  
turn off your device or switch to a mode that  
disables the wireless functions when directed by  
the airline personnel.  
3
When using the GPS service, hold your  
device in portrait orientation.  
Handle your device carefully and  
sensibly  
Do not allow your device to get wet—liquids  
can cause serious damage. Do not handle  
your device with wet hands. Water damage  
to your device can void your manufacturer’s  
warranty.  
Avoid interference with other  
electronic equipment  
Your device emits radio frequency (RF) signals  
that may interfere with unshielded or improperly  
shielded electronic equipment, such as  
Avoid using or storing your device in dusty,  
dirty areas to prevent damage to moving  
parts.  
pacemakers, hearing aids, and medical  
equipment in homes or vehicles. Consult the  
manufacturers of your electronic equipment to  
solve any interference problems you experience.  
Your device is made of complex electronics—  
protect it from impacts and rough handling to  
avoid serious damage.  
Do not paint your device, as paint can clog  
moving parts and prevent proper operation.  
Important usage  
information  
Avoid using the device’s camera flash or light  
close to the eyes of children or animals.  
Use your device in the normal position  
Avoid contact with your device’s internal  
antenna.  
Your device and memory cards may be  
damaged by exposure to magnetic fields. Do  
not use carrying cases or accessories with  
magnetic closures or allow your device to  
come in contact with magnetic fields for  
extended periods of time.  
Allow only qualified personnel to  
service your device  
Allowing unqualified personnel to service your  
device may result in damage to your device and  
will void your warranty.  
Ensure that you are not blocking the internal  
antenna.  
The internal antenna is located at the bottom  
of the device.

Frequent writing and erasing will shorten the  
life span of memory cards.  
Ensure maximum battery and charger  
life  
Do not touch gold-coloured contacts or  
terminals with your fingers or metal objects.  
If dirty, wipe the card with a soft cloth.  
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.  
Ensure access to emergency services  
Emergency calls from your device 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.  
Disconnect chargers from power sources  
when not in use.  
Use batteries only for their intended purpose.  
Handle SIM cards and memory cards  
with care  
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)  
certification information  
Your device 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 devices  
that exceed a maximum exposure level (known  
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0  
watts per kilogram of body tissue.  
Do not remove a card while the device is  
transferring or accessing information, as this  
could result in loss of data and/or damage to  
the card or device.  
Protect cards from strong shocks, static  
electricity, and electrical noise from other  
equipment.  
5
During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for  
this model was 0.671 watts per kilogram. In  
normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be much  
lower, as the device 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 device reduces your overall  
exposure to RF energy.  
Correct disposal of this product  
(Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment)  
(Applicable in the European Union and  
other European countries with  
separate collection systems)

recycle it responsibly to promote the sustainable  
reuse of material resources.  
The Declaration of Conformity at the back of this  
user manual demonstrates your device’s  
compliance with the European Radio & Terminal  
Telecommunications Equipment (R&TTE)  
directive. For more information about the SAR  
and related EU standards, visit the Samsung  
mobile website.
