Using the Batteries  
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion standard bat-  
tery.  
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.  
The following batteries are also available (ask your  
SAMSUNG dealer for further details):  
– SLIM Battery  
– STANDARD Battery  
EXTENDED Battery  
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 life-time 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 bat-  
tery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly  
affected by temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).  
Precautions When Using Batteries  
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any  
way.  
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.  
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 back of 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-circuit.  
If you use the phone near the networks base station, it  
uses less power; talk and standby times are greatly affect-  
ed by the signal strength on the cellular network and the  
parameters set by the network operator.  
Battery charging times depend 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 nor-  
mal, it is time to buy a new battery.  
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regula-  
tions. Always recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.  
If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself  
over time.

Safety Information  
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including  
cellular phones, may interfere with inadequately protected  
medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer  
of the medical device if you have any questions. Other  
electronic equipment may also be subject to interference.  
Road Safety  
Remember, road safety always comes first!  
Do not use a hand-held phone while driving a vehicle.  
Always park the vehicle before having a conversation.  
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, you are  
advised that for satisfactory operations and personal  
safety, the equipment should only be used in the normal  
operating position.  
Make sure that the phone is stored safely and will not fall  
or be broken in the event of a collision or emergency stop.  
The use of an alert device to operate a vehicles lights or  
horn on public roads is not permitted.  
Always switch off the phone when at a refuelling point  
(service station). You 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.  
Only qualified personnel should install or service the phone  
in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be danger-  
ous and may invalidate any warranty applicable to the unit.  
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive  
materials in the same compartment as the phone, its parts  
or accessories.  
Electronic fuel injection, anti-skid braking, electronic cruise  
control or any other electronic systems may malfunction  
due to the lack of protection from radio signals. Check  
regularly that all cellular phone equipment in your vehicle  
is mounted and operating correctly.  
• Switch off your cellular phone when in an aircraft. The use  
of cellular phones in an aircraft is illegal and may be  
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft or disrupt the  
cellular network. Failure to observe these instructions may  
lead to the suspension or denial of cellular telephone ser-  
vices to the offender, legal action or both.  
Operating Environment  
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any  
area and always switch off your phone whenever it is  
forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or  
danger (in a hospital for example).

Care and Maintenance  
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong  
detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it with a soft cloth  
slightly dampened in mild, soapy water.  
Your phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship  
and should be treated with care. The suggestions below will  
help you fulfill the warranty obligations and enjoy this product  
for many years.  
If the phone or any of its accessories are not working  
properly, take them to your nearest qualified service centre.  
The personnel there will assist you, and if necessary,  
arrange for the phone to be repaired.  
Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the  
reach of small children.  
Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids  
containing minerals will corrode the electronic circuits.  
Emergency Calls  
Important! This phone, like any cellular phone, uses radio  
signals, cellular and landline networks, as well  
as user-programmed functions that cannot  
guarantee connection in all conditions.  
Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas as its  
components may be damaged.  
Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can  
shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries and  
warp or melt certain plastics.  
Therefore, you should never rely solely on any  
cellular phone for essential communications  
(medical emergencies for example).  
Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone  
warms up (to its normal temperature), moisture can form  
inside the phone, which may damage the electronic  
circuits.  
Remember, to make or receive any calls, the phone must be  
switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular  
signal strength.  
Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular phone  
networks or when certain network services and/or phone  
features are in use. Check with local cellular service  
providers.  
Do not attempt to open the phone. Non-expert handling of  
the phone may damage it.  
Do not drop or knock the phone. Rough handling may  
damage the internal circuits.

Glossary of Terms  
Airtime - Actual time spent talking on the wireless phone.  
Most carriers bill customers based on how many  
minutes of airtime they use each month.  
EVRC - (Enhanced Variable Rate Codec) EVRC is a new global  
standard for compressing and decompressing voice  
signals. EVRC uses a lower bit rate (the number of bits  
sent per second) than existing CDMA vocoders, while  
providing significant improvements in voice quality.  
This technology enables your phone to provide superb  
voice quality while benefiting from the ability to  
process more cellular voice calls using less bandwidth  
than the voice codecs in CDMA networks today.  
Antenna - A device for transmitting or receiving signals. The  
size and shape of antennas is determined, in part,  
by the frequency of the signal they receive.  
Wireless phones and the base station must have  
antennas.  
Frequency - A measure based on time, as one or more waves  
per second, in an electrical or light wave  
Base Station - The fixed radio transmitter/receiver that  
maintains communications with mobile radio  
telephones within a given area. (Typically  
seen as cell or cell site)  
information signal. A signals frequency is stated  
in cycles-per-second or Hertz (Hz).  
Hands-Free - A feature that permits a driver to use a  
wireless phone without lifting or holding the  
handset - an important safety feature for  
automobiles, tractors and most other motorized  
vehicles.  
CDMA - (Code Division Multiple Access) A spread-spectrum  
approach to digital transmission. With CDMA, each  
conversion is digitized and then tagged with a code.  
The mobile phone deciphers only a particular code to  
pick the right conversation off the air.  
The transmitted signal is just above noise level  
across the available bandwidth.  
LCD - (Liquid Crystal Display) Commonly used to refer to the  
screen display on the wireless phone.  
Channel - Communications signals transmit along paths  
LED - (Light Emitting Diode) Commonly used to refer to a  
small light on the wireless phone or on the Desktop  
Charger. The LED lights on the phone to indicate an  
incoming call. The lights on the charger to indicate that  
battery charging is taking place.  
called channels.  
Codec - Compression & Decompression.  
Deactivation - The process of rendering a wireless phone  
Prepend - The addition of a prefix, such as an area code, to a  
inactive.  
phone number.  
DTMF - (Dual-tone Modulated Frequency ) You send DTMF  
signals when you enter numbers by pressing the digit  
keys.  
RF - Radio Frequency

Roaming - The ability to use a wireless phone to make and  
receive calls in places outside of the home service  
area.  
Service Charge - The amount paid each month to receive  
wireless service.  
Standby Time - The amount of time a fully charged wireless  
portable or transportable phone can be on  
and idle without being in use. (See Talk Time)  
Talk Time - The length of time a person can talk on a  
portable or transportable wireless phone without  
recharging the battery.  
Vocoder - Voice Coder. A device used to convert speech into  
digital signals.  
Voicemail - A computerized answering service that answers  
a call, plays a greeting and records a message.  
Depending on the sophistication of the service, it  
can notify the subscriber, via a pager, of an  
incoming call or message. (Also called voice  
messaging)  
Wireless - Radio-based Systems that allow transmission of  
telephone or data signals through the air without  
a physical connection, such as a metal wire  
(copper) or fiber optic cable.
