input method.  
Text Input Methods  
Your phone offers these input methods:  
Touch and hold on a text input field, then select an input  
method.  
Slide-out QWERTY keyboard: Slide the phone open to enter text by  
pressing keys on the physical keyboard.  
Swype: Swype is a new text input method that allows you to enter  
words by gliding your finger over the virtual QWERTY keyboard, lifting  
your finger between words. You can also enable Word prediction,  
which matches your key touches to common words.  
Android keyboard: Enter text by touching keys on a virtual QWERTY  
keyboard. Android keyboard includes predictive text, which matches  
your key touches to common words so you can select a word to insert  
it into your text.  
Samsung keypad: The Samsung keypad is a virtual QWERTY  
keyboard that allows you to enter text by touching keys on the screen.  
Samsung keypad includes optional XT9 predictive text, which matches  
your key touches to common words so that you can select the word to

Here are a few tips to get you started:  
Entering Text Using Swype  
Spacing is automatic: When you finish a word, just lift your finger and  
start the next word.  
Swype is a new way to enter text on touch screens. Instead of  
touching each key, use your finger to trace over each letter of a  
word. For each word, place your finger on the first letter and glide  
to the subsequent letters, lifting on the last letter.  
Double letters: Just “scribble” on the key.  
Capitalization: Swype recognizes and capitalizes the first word of  
sentences. If you want to capitalize a word that isn’t at the beginning  
of a sentence, just glide above the keyboard before gliding over the  
next letter.  
This example shows how to enter the word “this”. Put your finger  
down on the “t”, and without lifting, glide it to the “h”, then to the  
“i” then over to the “s”.  
Contractions: Swype recognizes most words that include an  
apostrophe; just swype the letters of the word, including the  
apostrophe.  
Punctuation: Tap and hold a key to view a punctuation menu and  
make a selection.  
Accented characters: Just glide through the letters of the word.  
Swype usually recognizes the word and correctly accents the letters.  
Error correction: If you make a mistake, double-tap on the word you  
want to change.

Section 13: Health and Safety Information  
This section outlines the safety precautions associated with using  
your phone. The terms “mobile device” or “cell phone” are used  
in this section to refer to your phone. Read this information before  
The low levels of RF cell phones emit while in use are in the  
microwave frequency range. They also emit RF at substantially  
reduced time intervals 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.  
using your mobile device  
.
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals  
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published  
information for consumers relating to Radio Frequency (RF)  
exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publication includes the  
following information:  
The biological effects of radio frequency energy should not be  
confused with the effects from other types of electromagnetic  
energy.  
Very high levels of electromagnetic energy, such as is found in  
X-rays and gamma rays, can ionize biological tissues. Ionization  
is a process where electrons are stripped away from their normal  
locations in atoms and molecules. It can permanently damage  
biological tissues including DNA, the genetic material.  
Do cell phones pose a health hazard?  
Many people are concerned that cell phone radiation will cause  
cancer or other serious health hazards. The weight of scientific  
evidence has not linked cell phones with any health problems.  
Cell phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Over  
the past 15 years, scientists have conducted hundreds of studies  
looking at the biological effects of the radio frequency energy  
emitted by cell phones. While some researchers have reported  
biological changes associated with RF energy, these studies have  
failed to be replicated. The majority of studies published have  
failed to show an association between exposure to radio  
frequency from a cell phone and health problems.  
The energy levels associated with radio frequency energy,  
including both radio waves and microwaves, are not great  
enough to cause ionization of atoms and molecules. Therefore,  
RF energy is a type of non-ionizing radiation. Other types of  
non-ionizing radiation include visible light, infrared radiation  
(heat), and other forms of electromagnetic radiation with  
relatively low frequencies.  
143  
         
While RF energy does not ionize particles, large amounts can  
increase body temperatures and cause tissue damage. Two  
areas of the body, the eyes and the testes, are particularly  
vulnerable to RF heating because there is relatively little blood  
flow in them to carry away excess heat.  
Results of this study did NOT show that cell phones caused brain  
cancer. In this study, most people had no increased risk of brain  
cancer from using cell phones. For people with the heaviest use  
of cell phones (an average of more than ½ hour per day, every  
day, for over 10 years) the study suggested a slight increase in  
brain cancer. However, the authors determined that biases and  
errors prevented any conclusions being drawn from this data.  
Additional information about Interphone can be found at  
Research Results to Date: Is there a connection between  
RF and certain health problems?  
The results of most studies conducted to date say no. In addition,  
attempts to replicate and confirm the few studies that have  
shown a connection have failed.  
.
Interphone is the largest cell phone study to date, but it did not  
answer all questions about cell phone safety. Additional research  
is being conducted around the world, and the FDA continues to  
monitor developments in this field.  
The scientific community at large therefore believes that the  
weight of scientific evidence does not show an association  
between exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) from cell phones and  
adverse health outcomes. Still the scientific community has  
supported additional research to address gaps in knowledge.  
Some of these studies are described below.  
International Cohort Study on Mobile Phone Users (COSMOS)  
The COSMOS study aims to conduct long-term health monitoring  
of a large group of people to determine if there are any health  
issues linked to long-term exposure to radio frequency energy  
from cell phone use. The COSMOS study will follow  
Interphone Study  
Interphone is a large international study designed to determine  
whether cell phones increase the risk of head and neck cancer. A  
report published in the International Journal of Epidemiology  
(June, 2010) compared cell phone usage for more than 5,000  
people with brain tumors (glioma and meningioma) and a similar  
number of healthy controls.

30 years. Additional information about the COSMOS study can be

Cell Phone Industry Actions  
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory  
actions, the FDA has urged the cell phone industry to take a  
number of steps, including the following:  
MOBI-KIDS is an international study investigating the relationship  
between exposure to radio frequency energy from  
communication technologies including cell phones and brain  
cancer in young people. This is an international multi-center  
study involving 14 European and non-European countries.  
Additional information about MOBI-KIDS can be found at

information on cell phone use and human health concerns.

Reducing Exposure: Hands-Free Kits and Other  
Accessories  
Steps to Reduce Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy  
kits reduce risks. Hands-free kits can be used for convenience  
and comfort. They are also required by law in many states if you  
want to use your phone while driving.  
Cell Phone Accessories that Claim to Shield the Head from  
RF Radiation  
If there is a risk from being exposed to radio frequency energy  
(RF) from cell phones - 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 RF exposure.  
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions  
from cell phones, there is no reason to believe that accessories  
which 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 “hands-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.  
Reduce the amount of time spent using your cell phone;  
Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance between your  
head and the cell phone.  
Hands-Free Kits  
Hands-free kits may include audio or Bluetooth® headsets and  
various types of body-worn accessories such as belt-clips and  
holsters. Combinations of these can be used to reduce RF energy  
absorption from cell phones.  
Headsets can substantially reduce exposure because the phone  
is held away from the head in the user's hand or in approved  
body-worn accessories. Cell phones marketed in the U.S. are  
required to meet RF exposure compliance requirements when  
used against the head and against the body.  
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions  
from cell phones, there is no reason to believe that hands-free

International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection:  
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have  
advised that children be discouraged from using cell phones at  
all. For example, The Stewart Report from the United Kingdom  
made such a recommendation in December 2000. In this report,  
a group of independent experts noted that no evidence exists that  
using a cell phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their  
recommendation to limit cell phone use by children was strictly  
precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any  
health hazard exists.

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.  
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  
Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) and  
the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).  
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.  
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.  
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 mobile device a  
minimum of 1.0 cm from the body.  
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).  
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF  
exposure guidelines.  
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.  
Health and Safety Information

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this mobile  
phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance  
with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. The maximum SAR values

Smart Practices While Driving  
On the Road - Off the Phone  
The primary responsibility of every driver is the safe operation of  
his or her vehicle.  
Responsible drivers understand that no secondary task should be  
performed while driving whether it be eating, drinking, talking to  
passengers, or talking on a mobile phone - unless the driver has  
assessed the driving conditions and is confident that the  
secondary task will not interfere with their primary responsibility.  
Do not engage in any activity while driving a moving vehicle which  
may cause you to take your eyes off the road or become so  
absorbed in the activity that your ability to concentrate on the act  
of driving becomes impaired. Samsung is committed to promoting  
responsible driving and giving drivers the tools they need to  
understand and address distractions.

Do not handle a damaged or leaking battery. Do not let leaking  
battery fluid come in contact with your eyes, skin or clothing. For safe  
disposal options, contact your nearest Samsung-authorized service  
center.  
Battery Use and Safety  
Important!: Handle and store batteries properly to avoid injury or damage  
.
Most battery issues arise from improper handling of batteries  
and, particularly, from the continued use of damaged batteries.  
Avoid dropping the cell phone. Dropping the phone or the battery,  
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.  
Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise attempt  
to change the form of your battery. Do not put a high degree of  
pressure on the battery. This can cause leakage or an internal short-  
circuit, resulting in overheating.  
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way.  
Do not let the phone or battery come in contact with liquids.  
Liquids can get into the phone's circuits, leading to corrosion. Even  
when the phone appears to be dry and appears to operate normally,  
the circuitry could slowly corrode and pose a safety hazard. If the  
phone and/or battery get wet, have them checked by your service  
provider or contact Samsung, even if they appear to be working  
properly.  
Do not allow the battery to touch metal objects. Accidental  
short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object (coin, key, jewelry,  
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.  
Important!: Use only Samsung-approved batteries, and recharge your battery  
only with Samsung-approved chargers which are specifically  
designed for your phone.  
Do not place your battery in or near a heat source. Excessive  
heating can damage the phone or the battery and could cause the  
phone or the battery to explode. Do not dry a wet or damp battery with  
an appliance or heat source such as a microwave oven, hair dryer,  
iron, or radiator. Avoid leaving your phone in your car in high  
temperatures.  
Warning!: Use of a non-Samsung-approved battery or charger may present a  
risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. Samsung's  
warranty does not cover damage to the phone caused by non-  
Samsung-approved batteries and/or chargers.  
Do not dispose of the phone or the battery in a fire. The phone or  
the battery may explode when overheated.  
151  
   
Do not use incompatible cell phone batteries and chargers. Some  
websites 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.

GPS & AGPS  
Certain Samsung mobile devices can use a Global Positioning  
System (GPS) signal for location-based applications. A GPS uses  
satellites controlled by the U.S. Government that are subject to  
changes implemented in accordance with the Department of  
Defense policy and the 2008 Federal Radio navigation Plan (FRP).  
Changes may affect the performance of location-based  
technology on your mobile device.  
Use of AGPS in Emergency Calls  
When you make an emergency call, the cellular network may  
activate AGPS technology in your mobile device to tell the  
emergency responders your approximate location.  
AGPS has limitations and might not work in your area. Therefore:  
Always tell the emergency responder your location to the best of your  
ability; and  
Certain Samsung mobile devices can also use an Assisted Global  
Positioning System (AGPS), which obtains information from the  
cellular network to improve GPS performance. AGPS uses your  
wireless service provider's network and therefore airtime, data  
charges, and/or additional charges may apply in accordance with  
your service plan. Contact your wireless service provider for  
details.  
Remain on the mobile device for as long as the emergency responder  
instructs you.  
Navigation  
Maps, directions, and other navigation data may contain  
inaccurate or incomplete data, and circumstances can and do  
change over time. In some areas, complete information may not  
be available. Therefore, you should always visually confirm that  
the navigational instructions are consistent with what you see  
before following them. All users should pay attention to road  
conditions, closures, traffic, and all other factors that may impact  
Your Location  
Location-based information includes information that can be  
used to determine the approximate location of a mobile device.  
Mobile devices which are connected to a wireless network

To make an emergency call:  
Emergency Calls  
1. If the mobile device is not on, switch it on.  
This mobile device, like any wireless mobile device, 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 mobile device 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 mobile device must be switched  
on and in a service area with adequate signal strength.  
2. Key in the emergency number for your present location (for  
example, 911 or other official emergency number).  
Emergency numbers vary by location.  
3. Touch  
to place the call.  
If certain features are in use (call blocking, for example), you may  
first need to deactivate those features before you can make an  
emergency call. Consult your User Manual and your local cellular  
service provider. When making an emergency call, remember to  
give all the necessary information as accurately as possible.  
Remember that your mobile device may be the only means of  
communication at the scene of an accident; do not cut off the call  
until given permission to do so.  
Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless mobile  
device networks or when certain network services and/or mobile  
device features are in use. Check with local service providers.

Cleaning solutions  
Care and Maintenance  
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong  
detergents to clean the mobile device. Wipe it with a soft cloth  
slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water solution.  
Your mobile device is a product of superior design and  
craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The suggestions  
below will help you fulfill any warranty obligations and allow you  
to enjoy this product for many years:  
Shock or vibration  
Keep your Samsung Mobile Device away from:  
Liquids of any kind  
Do not drop, knock, or shake the mobile device. Rough  
handling can break internal circuit boards.  
Paint  
Keep the mobile device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and liquids  
contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits. If the  
mobile device does get wet, do not accelerate drying with the  
use of an oven, microwave, or dryer, because this may damage  
the mobile device and could cause a fire or explosion. Do not  
use the mobile device with a wet hand. Doing so may cause an  
electric shock to you or damage to the mobile device.  
Do not paint the mobile device. Paint can clog the device’s  
moving parts or ventilation openings and prevent proper  
operation.  
Extreme heat or cold  
Avoid temperatures below 0°C / 32°F or above 45°C / 113°F.  
Microwaves  
Do not try to dry your mobile device in a microwave oven.  
Doing so may cause a fire or explosion.  
Dust and dirt  
Do not expose your mobile device to dust, dirt, or sand.  
157  
   
Always turn the volume down before plugging the earphones into an  
audio source.  
Responsible Listening  
Caution!: Avoid potential hearing loss  
.
Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume at  
which you can hear adequately.  
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  
cell phones, 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.  
Be aware that you can adapt to higher volume settings over time, not  
realizing that the higher volume may be harmful to your hearing.  
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.  
You should follow some common sense recommendations when  
using any portable audio device:

Using Your Mobile Device Near Other Electronic Devices  
Other Medical 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  
mobile device. Consult the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.  
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 mobile  
device 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.  
Implantable Medical Devices  
A minimum separation of six (6) inches should be maintained  
between a handheld wireless mobile device and an implantable  
medical device, such as a pacemaker or implantable cardioverter  
defibrillator, to avoid potential interference with the device.  
Vehicles  
Persons who have such devices:  
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately  
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the  
manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle before  
using your mobile device in a motor vehicle. You should also  
consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added  
to your vehicle.  
Should ALWAYS keep the mobile device more than six (6) inches from  
their implantable medical device when the mobile device is turned ON;  
Should not carry the mobile device in a breast pocket;  
Should use the ear opposite the implantable medical device to  
minimize the potential for interference;

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 mobile devices under the Hearing Aid  
Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless  
mobile devices be compatible with hearing aids.  
Switch your mobile device off in any facility where posted notices  
require you to do so.  
Potentially Explosive Environments  
Switch your mobile device 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 mobile  
device 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.  
The intent of the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable access to  
telecommunications services for persons with hearing  
disabilities. While some wireless mobile devices 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 mobile devices also vary in the amount of  
interference they generate.  
The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system  
for wireless mobile devices to assist hearing device users find  
mobile devices that may be compatible with their hearing  
devices. Not all mobile devices have been rated. Mobile devices  
that are rated have the rating on their box or a label located on  
the box.  
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  
161  
   
use a rated mobile device successfully. Trying out the mobile  
device with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for  
your personal needs.  
A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6  
is considered for best use.  
M-Ratings: Mobile devices rated M3 or M4 meet FCC  
requirements and are likely to generate less interference to  
hearing devices than mobile devices that are not labeled. M4 is  
the better/higher of the two ratings.  
T-Ratings: Mobile devices rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements  
and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices  
than mobile devices that are not labeled. T4 is the better/higher  
of the two ratings.  
T3  
+
T2  
=
5
M3  
+
M2  
=
5
If a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating and the wireless mobile  
device 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 mobile device.  
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 mobile device rating values are then added together.  
“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.

HAC/Wi-Fi for Newer Technologies  
FCC Notice and Cautions  
FCC Notice  
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids  
for some of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there  
may be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone  
that have not been tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is  
important to try the different features of this phone thoroughly  
and in different locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear  
implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Consult  
your service provider or the manufacturer of this phone for  
information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions  
about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider  
or phone retailer.  
The mobile device may cause TV or radio interference if used in  
close proximity to receiving equipment. The FCC can require you  
to stop using the mobile device if such interference cannot be  
eliminated. Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as  
propane or butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection  
Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the  
National Fire Protection Association.  
Cautions  
Any changes or modifications to your mobile device not expressly  
approved in this document could void your warranty for this  
equipment and void your authority to operate this equipment.  
Only use approved batteries, antennas, and chargers. The use of  
any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the  
mobile device warranty if said accessories cause damage or a  
defect to the mobile device. Although your mobile device is quite  
sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken.  
Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on it.  
Restricting Children's Access to Your  
Mobile Device  
Your mobile device is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with  
it because they could hurt themselves and others, damage the  
mobile device, or make calls that increase your mobile device  
bill.  
Keep the mobile device and all its parts and accessories out of  
the reach of small children.  
163  
       
Other Important Safety Information  
Only qualified personnel should service the mobile device or install the  
mobile device in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be  
dangerous and may invalidate any warranty applicable to the device.  
Ensure that any mobile devices or related equipment installed in your  
vehicle are securely mounted.  
Check regularly that all wireless mobile device equipment in your  
vehicle is mounted and operating properly.  
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials  
in the same compartment as the mobile device, its parts, or  
accessories.  
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag  
inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including installed or  
portable wireless equipment near or in the area over the air bag or in  
the air bag deployment area. If wireless equipment is improperly  
installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.  
Switch your mobile device off before boarding an aircraft. The use of  
wireless mobile devices in aircraft is illegal and may be dangerous to  
the aircraft's operation. Check with appropriate authorities before  
using any function of a mobile device while on an aircraft.  
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or  
denial of cell phone services to the offender, or legal action, or both.

ANY SUCH THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE OR EQUIPMENT RESTS  
SOLELY WITH THE USER AND THE DIRECT VENDOR, OWNER OR  
SUPPLIER OF SUCH THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE OR EQUIPMENT.  
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY SETS OUT THE FULL EXTENT OF  
SAMSUNG’S RESPONSIBILITIES, AND THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY  
REGARDING THE PRODUCTS. ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES,  
INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF  
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,

NO EVENT SHALL SAMSUNG BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES IN

FROM THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PRODUCT. SOME  
STATES AND JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON  
HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, OR THE DISCLAIMER  
OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,  
SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS MAY NOT APPLY  
TO YOU.  
Nothing in the Product instructions or information shall be  
construed to create an express warranty of any kind with respect

required to pay no more than half of the total administrative,  
facility and arbitrator fees, or $50.00 of such fees, whichever is  
less, and SAMSUNG shall pay the remainder of such fees.  
Administrative, facility and arbitrator fees for arbitrations in  
which your total damage claims, exclusive of attorney fees and  
expert witness fees, exceed $5,000.00 (“Large Claim”) shall be

court of competent jurisdiction.  
ALL DISPUTES WITH SAMSUNG ARISING IN ANY WAY FROM THIS

EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION, AND  
NOT BY A COURT OR JURY. Any such dispute shall not be  
combined or consolidated with a dispute involving any other  
person’s or entity’s Product or claim, and specifically, without  
limitation of the foregoing, shall not under any circumstances  
proceed as part of a class action. The arbitration shall be  
conducted before a single arbitrator, whose award may not  
exceed, in form or amount, the relief allowed by the applicable  
law. The arbitration shall be conducted according to the  
American Arbitration Association (AAA) Commercial Arbitration  
Rules applicable to consumer disputes. This arbitration provision  
is entered pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. The laws of the  
State of Texas, without reference to its choice of laws principles,
