Health and Safety Information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines are based on the safety standards that were
developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific studies.
The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless phones employs a unit of
measurement known as Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit
*
recommended by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating positions specified 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 of the phone.
*. In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones
used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one
gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial mar-
gin of safety to give additional protection for the public and
to account for any variations in measurements.
Health and Safety Information
113
Before a new model phone is available for sale to the public, it must be
tested and certified by the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established
by the government adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body)
as required by the FCC for each model. While there may be differences
between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all
meet the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://
www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID printed in the label on the
phone.
For Body Operation
For body worn operation, this model phone has been tested and meets the
FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with a Samsung-supplied or
approved accessory designated for this product or when used with an
accessory that contains no metal and that positions the phone a minimum
from the body.
The minimum distance from the body for this model phone is written in the
FCC certification information. Non-compliance with the above conditions
may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.

Precautions When Using Batteries
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
If you use the phone near the network’s base station, it uses less power;
talk and standby time are greatly affected by the signal strength on the
cellular network and the parameters set by the network operator.
Battery charging time depends on the remaining battery charge, the type
of battery and the 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
normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.
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.
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 lifetime 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
Health and Safety Information
115
battery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly affected by
temperatures below 0 C (32 F).
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 battery),
for example when you carry a spare battery in a pocket or bag.
Shortcircuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the object
causing the short-circuiting.
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. Always
recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.
Note: The battery charging circuit may stop functioning if you are viewing a streaming video and
receive a call while charging as the capacity of the charging circuit will be exceeded.
Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always
switch your phone off whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may
cause interference or danger.
When connecting the phone or any accessory to another device, read its
user’s guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible
products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that
for the satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of
personnel, it is recommended that the equipment should only be used in
the normal operating position (held to your ear with the antenna pointing
over your shoulder).
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF)
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded
Health and Safety Information
116
against the RF signals from your wireless phone. Consult the manufacturer
to discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum distance of 15 cm
(6 inches) be maintained between a wireless phone and a pacemaker to
avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations
are consistent with the independent research and recommendations of
Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
should always keep the phone more than 15 cm (6 inches) from their
pacemaker when the phone is switched on.
should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize potential
interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch
your phone off immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may wish to consult your hearing aid
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Audio Shock
At very high volumes, prolonged listening to a headset can damage your
hearing.
Health and Safety Information
117
Other Medical Devices
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 phone 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.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its
representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the
manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle. You
should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been
added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted notices require you to do
so.
Potentially Explosive Environments
Switch your phone 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 phone 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.
Health and Safety Information
118
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always
clearly marked. They include the areas 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.
Emergency Calls
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless
and landline networks as well as user-programmed functions, which cannot
guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely
solely on any wireless phone for essential communications (medical
emergencies, for example).
Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone must be switched on
and in a service area with adequate signal strength. Emergency calls may
not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain network
services and/or phone features are in use. Check with local service
providers.
To make an emergency call:
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.
2. Key in the emergency number for your present location (for example,
911 or other official emergency number). Emergency numbers vary by
location.
3. Press the [
] key.
If certain features are in use (call barring, for example), you may first need
to deactivate those features before you can make an emergency call.
Consult this document 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 phone 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.
Other Important Safety Information
Only qualified personnel should service the phone or install the phone in
a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may
invalidate any warranty applicable to the device.
Check regularly that all wireless phone 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 phone, its parts or accessories.
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember air bag inflates with
great force. Do not place installed or portable wireless equipment 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 phone off before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless
phones in aircraft is illegal unless permitted and may be dangerous to
the aircraft’s operation.
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or
denial of telephone services to the offender, legal action, or both.
Care and Maintenance
Your phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should
be treated with care. The suggestions help you fulfill any warranty
obligations and allow enjoy this product for many years:
Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of reach of small
children.

A Guide to Safe and Responsible Wireless Phone Use
Tens of millions of people in North America today take advantage of the
unique combination of convenience, safety and value delivered by the
wireless telephone. Quite simply, the wireless phone gives people the
powerful ability to communicate by voice-almost anywhere, anytime with
the boss, with a client, with the kids, with emergency personnel or even
with the police. Each year, North Americans make billions of calls from their
wireless phones, and the numbers are rapidly growing.
But an important responsibility accompanies those benefits, one that every
wireless phone user must uphold. When driving a car, driving is your first
responsibility. A wireless phone can be an invaluable tool, but good
judgment must be exercised at all times while driving a motor vehicle
whether on the phone or not.
The basic lessons are ones we all learned as teenagers. Driving requires
alertness, caution and courtesy. It requires a heavy dose of basic common
sense-keep your head up, keep your eyes on the road, check your mirrors
frequently and watch out for other drivers. It requires obeying all traffic
signs and signals and staying within the speed limit. It means using seat
belts and requiring other passengers to do the same.
But with wireless phone use, driving safely means a little more. This
brochure is a call to wireless phone users everywhere to make safety their
first priority when behind the wheel of a car. Wireless telecommunications
is keeping us in touch, simplifying our lives, protecting us in emergencies
and providing opportunities to help others in need. When it comes to the
use of wireless phones, safety is your most important call.
Wireless Phone “Safety Tips”
Below are safety tips to follow while driving and using a wireless phone
which should be easy to remember:
Health and Safety Information
125
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial
and redial. Carefully read your instruction manual and learn to take
advantage of valuable features most phones offer, including automatic
redial and memory. Also, work to memorize the phone keypad so you
can use the speed dial function without taking your attention off the
road.
2. When available, use a hands free device. A number of hands free
wireless phone accessories are readily available today. Whether you
choose an installed mounted device for your wireless phone or a
speaker phone accessory, take advantage of these devices if available
to you.
3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure you place
your wireless phone within easy reach and where you can grab it
without removing your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at
an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.
4. Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions or
situations. Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if
necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather
conditions. Rain, sleet, snow and ice can be hazardous, but so is heavy
traffic. As a driver, your first responsibility is to pay attention to the road.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. If you are
reading an Contact list or business card, or writing a to do list while
driving a car, you are not watching where you are going. It’s common
sense. Don’t get caught in a dangerous situation because you are
reading or writing and not paying attention to the road or nearby
vehicles.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you
are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan your calls before
you begin your trip or attempt to coincide your calls with times you may
be stopped at a stop sign, red light or otherwise stationary. But if you
Health and Safety Information
126
need to dial while driving, follow this simple tip-dial only a few numbers,
check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be
distracting. Stressful or emotional conversations and driving do not
mix-they are distracting and even dangerous when you are behind the
wheel of a car. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving
and if necessary, suspend conversations which have the potential to
divert your attention from the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless phone is one of
the greatest tools you can own to protect yourself and your family in
dangerous situations-with your phone at your side, help is only three
numbers away. Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency number in the case
of fire, traffic accident, road hazard or medical emergency. Remember,
it is a free call on your wireless phone!
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your wireless
phone provides you a perfect opportunity to be a Good Samaritan in
your community. If you see an auto accident, crime in progress or other
serious emergency where lives are in danger, call 9-1-1 or other local
emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.
10. Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non emergency
assistance number when necessary. Certain situations you encounter
while driving may require attention, but are not urgent enough to merit
a call for emergency services. But you still can use your wireless phone
to lend a hand. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious
hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one
appears injured or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside
assistance or other special non-emergency wireless number.
Careless, distracted individuals and people driving irresponsibly represent
a hazard to everyone on the road. Since 1984, the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association and the wireless industry have
conducted an educational outreach program to inform wireless phone
Health and Safety Information
127
users of their responsibilities as safe drivers and good citizens. As we
approach a new century, more and more of us will take advantage of the
benefits of wireless telephones. And, as we take to the roads, we all have a
responsibility to drive safely.
The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely when driving.

Appendix C: Consumer Update on Wireless
Phones
U.S. Food and Drug Administration
1. What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?
The term wireless phone refers here to hand-held wireless phones with
built-in antennas, often called cell, mobile, or PCS phones. These types of
wireless phones can expose the user to measurable radio frequency
energy (RF) because of the short distance between the phone and the user
s head. These RF exposures are limited by Federal Communications
Commission safety guidelines that were developed with the advice of FDA
and other federal health and safety agencies. When the phone is located at
greater distances from the user, the exposure to RF is drastically lower
because a person’s RF exposure decreases rapidly with increasing
distance from the source. The so-called “cordless phones,” which have a
base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house, typically operate at
far lower power levels, and thus produce RF exposures well within the
FCC’s compliance limits.
2. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems
are associated with using wireless phones. There is no proof, however, that
Health and Safety Information
128
wireless phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of
radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used.
They also emit very low levels of RF 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. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not
found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some
biological effects may occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by
additional research. In some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in
reproducing those studies, or in determining the reasons for inconsistent
results.
3. What is FDA’s role concerning the safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation emitting
consumer products such as wireless phones before they can be sold, as it
does with new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has
authority to take action if wireless phones are shown to emit radio
frequency energy (RF) at a level that is hazardous to the user. In such a
case, FDA could require the manufacturers of wireless phones to notify
users of the health hazard and to repair, replace or recall the phones so
that the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions,
FDA has urged the wireless phone industry to take a number of steps,
including the following:
Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the
type emitted by wireless phones;
Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the
user that is not necessary for device function; and
Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best possible
information on possible effects of wireless phone use on human health
Health and Safety Information
129
FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that
have responsibility for different aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated
efforts at the federal level. The following agencies belong to this working
group:
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
Environmental Protection Agency Federal Communications Commission
Occupational Safety and Health Administration
National Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency
working group activities, as well.
FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). All phones that are sold in the United
States must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF exposure.
FCC relies on FDA and other health agencies for safety questions about
wireless phones.
FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networks rely
upon. While these base stations operate at higher power than do the
wireless phones themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these
base stations are typically thousands of times lower than those they can
get from wireless phones. Base stations are thus not the primary subject of
the safety questions discussed in this document.
4. What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of
wireless phone RF?
FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology Program and with groups
of investigators around the world to ensure that high priority animal studies
are conducted to address important questions about the effects of
exposure to radio frequency energy (RF).
Health and Safety Information
130
FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organization
International Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its inception in
1996. An influential result of this work has been the development of a
detailed agenda of research needs that has driven the establishment of
new research programs around the world. The Project has also helped
develop a series of public information documents on EMF issues.
FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA)
have a formal Cooperative Research and Development Agreement
(CRADA) to do research on wireless phone safety. FDA provides the
scientific oversight, obtaining input from experts in government, industry,
and academic organizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted through
contracts to independent investigators. The initial research will include both
laboratory studies and studies of wireless phone users. The CRADA will
also include a broad assessment of additional research needs in the
context of the latest research developments around the world.
5. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to radio frequency
energy from my wireless phone?
If there is a risk from these products—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
exposure to radio frequency energy (RF). Since time is a key factor in how
much exposure a person receives, reducing the amount of time spent using
a wireless phone will reduce RF exposure.
If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless phone every day,
you could place more distance between your body and the source of the
RF, since the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For
example, you could use a headset and carry the wireless phone away from
your body or use a wireless phone connected to a remote antenna
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that wireless phones are
harmful. But if you are concerned about the RF exposure from these
Health and Safety Information
131
products, you can use measures like those described above to reduce your
RF exposure from wireless phone use.
6. What about children using wireless phones?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless
phones, including children and teenagers. If you want to take steps to lower
exposure to radio frequency energy (RF), the measures described above
would apply to children and teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing
the time of wireless phone use and increasing the distance between the
user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure.
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that
children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For example,
the government in the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such
a recommendation in December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists
that using a wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their
recommendation to limit wireless phone use by children was strictly
precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health
hazard exists.
7. Do hands-free kits for wireless phones reduce risks from exposure to
RF emissions?
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from
wireless phones, there is no reason to believe that hands-free kits reduce
risks. Hands-free kits can be used with wireless phones for convenience
and comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF energy in the
head because the phone, which is the source of the RF emissions, will not
be placed against the head. On the other hand, if the phone is mounted
against the waist or other part of the body during use, then that part of the
body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless phones marketed in the U.S.
are required to meet safety requirements regardless of whether they are
used against the head or against the body. Either configuration should
result in compliance with the safety limit.
Health and Safety Information
132
8. Do wireless phone accessories that claim to shield the head from RF
radiation work?
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from
wireless phones, there is no reason to believe that accessories that 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 “hand-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. In February
2002, the Federal trade Commission (FTC) charged two companies that
sold devices that claimed to protect wireless phone users from radiation
with making false and unsubstantiated claims. According to FTC, these
defendants lacked a reasonable basis to substantiate their claim.
9. What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment?
Radio frequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can interact with some
electronic devices. For this reason, FDA helped develop a detailed test
method to measure electromagnetic interference (EMI) of implanted
cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless telephones. This test
method is now part of a standard sponsored by the Association for the
Advancement of Medical instrumentation (AAMI). The final draft, a joint
effort by FDA, medical device manufacturers, and many other groups, was
completed in late 2000. This standard will allow manufacturers to ensure
that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from wireless phone
EMI.
FDA has tested hearing aids for interference from handheld wireless
phones and helped develop a voluntary standard sponsored by the
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This standard
specifies test methods and performance requirements for hearing aids and
wireless phones so that no interference occurs when a person uses a
Health and Safety Information
133
compatible phone and a compatible hearing aid at the same time. This
standard was approved by the IEEE in 2000.
FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for possible
interactions with other medical devices. Should harmful interference be
found to occur, FDA will conduct testing to assess the interference and
work to resolve the problem.
10. What are the results of the research done already?
The research done thus far has produced conflicting results, and many
studies have suffered from flaws in their research methods. Animal
experiments investigating the effects of radio frequency energy (RF)
exposures characteristic of wireless phones have yielded conflicting results
that often cannot be repeated in other laboratories. A few animal studies,
however, have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the
development of cancer in laboratory animals. However, many of the studies
that showed increased tumor development used animals that had been
genetically engineered or treated with cancer causing chemicals so as to
be pre-disposed to develop cancer in the absence of RF exposure. Other
studies exposed the animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day. These
conditions are not similar to the conditions under which people use wireless
phones, so we don’ t know with certainty what the results of such studies
mean for human health.
Three large epidemiology studies have been published since December
2000. Between them, the studies investigated any possible association
between the use of wireless phones and primary brain cancer, gioma,
meningioma, or acoustic neuroma, tumors of the brain or salivary gland,
leukemia, or other cancers. None of the studies demonstrated the
existence of any harmful health effects from wireless phone RF exposures.
However, none of the studies can answer questions about long-term
exposures, since the average period of phone use in these studies was
around three years.
Health and Safety Information
134
11. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless
phones poses a health risk?
A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people
actually using wireless phones would provide some of the data that are
needed. Lifetime animal exposure studies could be completed in a few
years. However, very large numbers of animals would be needed to
provide reliable proof of a cancer promoting effect if one exists.
Epidemiological studies can provide data that is directly applicable to
human populations, but 10 or more years follow-up may be needed to
provide answers about some health effects, such as cancer. This is
because the interval between the time of exposure to a cancer-causing
agent and the time tumors develop - if they do - may be many, many years.
The interpretation of epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in
measuring actual RF exposure during day-to-day use of wireless phones.
Many factors affect this measurement, such as the angle at which the
phone is held, or which model of phone is used.

RF health effects?
