Health and safety information  
SAR certification information  
Memory status  
Check memory information  
for each items in the  
phone’s memory or on a  
memory card.  
This phone meets European Union (EU) requirements  
concerning exposure to radio waves.  
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It  
is designed and manufactured to not exceed the limits  
for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy, as  
recommended by the EU Council. These limits are part  
of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted  
levels of RF energy for the general population. The  
guidelines were developed by independent scientific  
organisations through the periodic and thorough  
evaluation of scientific studies. The limits include a  
substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety  
of all persons, regardless of age and health.

Health and safety information  
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a  
unit of measurement known as Specific Absorption Rate  
(SAR). The SAR limit recommended by the EU Council is  
2.0 W/kg.1  
Before a new model phone is available for sale to the  
public, compliance with the European R&TTE Directive  
must be shown. This directive includes as one of its  
essential requirements the protection of the health and  
safety of the user and any other person.  
The highest SAR value for this model phone was 0.447  
W/kg.  
Precautions when using batteries  
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating  
positions 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  
base station, the lower the power output of the phone.  
Never use a 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  
service provider.  
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 is noticeably shorter than  
normal, it is time to buy a new battery.  
1. The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 2.0  
watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams of body  
tissue. The limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to  
give additional protection for the public and to account for any  
variations in measurements. The SAR values may vary,  
depending on national reporting requirements and the  
network band.  
38  
If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge  
itself over time.  
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-  
circuiting can occur when a metallic object like a  
coin, clip or pen causes a direct connection between  
the + and – terminals of the battery (metal strips on  
the battery). For example, do not carry a spare  
battery in a pocket or bag where the battery may  
contact metal objects. Short-circuiting the terminals  
may damage the battery or the object causing the  
short-circuiting.  
Use only Samsung-approved batteries, and  
recharge your battery only with Samsung-approved  
chargers. Disconnect the charger from the power  
source when it is not in use. 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.  
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local  
regulations. Always recycle. Do not dispose of  
batteries in a fire.  
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places  
because the capacity and lifetime of the battery will  
be reduced. Try to keep the battery at room  
temperature. A phone with a hot or cold battery  
may not work temporarily, even when the battery is  
fully charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly  
affected by temperatures below 0° C (32° F).  
Road safety  
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to  
communicate by voice, almost anywhere, anytime. But  
an important responsibility accompanies the benefits of  
wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.  
When you are driving a car, driving is your first  
responsibility. When using your wireless phone while  
driving, follow local regulations in the country or region  
you are in.  
39  
Health and safety information  
Pacemakers  
Operating environment  
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. If you have any reason to suspect that  
interference is taking place, switch off your phone  
immediately.  
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in  
the area you are in, and always switch off your phone  
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).  
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.  
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 phone. 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.  
40  
Switch off your phone in health care facilities when  
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.  
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.  
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.  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often  
but not always clearly marked. They include the areas  
below decks 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.  
You should also consult the manufacturer of any  
equipment that has been added to your vehicle.  
Posted facilities  
Switch off your phone in any facility where posted  
notices require you to do so.  
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 like medical emergencies.  
Potentially explosive environments  
Switch off your phone 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 off the phone while at a  
refuelling point (service station). Users are reminded of  
41  
Health and safety information  
To make or receive 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.  
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  
that an air bag inflates with great force. Do not  
place objects, including installed or portable wireless  
equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air  
bag deployment area. Improperly installed wireless  
equipment could result in serious injury if the air  
bag inflates.  
To make an emergency call:  
1. Switch on the phone.  
2. Key in the emergency number for your present  
location. Emergency numbers vary by location.  
3. Press  
.
Certain features like Call Barring may need to be  
deactivated before you can make an emergency call.  
Consult this document and your local cellular service  
provider.  
Switch off your phone before boarding an aircraft. It  
is dangerous and illegal to use wireless phones in an  
aircraft because they can interfere with the  
operation of the aircraft.  
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the  
suspension or denial of telephone services to the  
offender, or legal action, or both.  
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.  
42  
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.  
Care and maintenance  
Your phone 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.  
Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the  
phone warms up to its normal operating  
temperature, moisture can form inside the phone,  
which may damage the phone’s electronic circuit  
boards.  
Keep your phone and all its parts and accessories  
out of the reach of small children and pets. They  
may accidentally damage these things or choke on  
small parts.  
Do not drop, knock, or shake the phone. Rough  
handling can break internal circuit boards.  
Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity, and  
liquids contain minerals that corrode electronic  
circuits.  
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or  
strong detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it with a  
soft cloth.  
Do not use the phone with a wet hand. Doing so  
may cause an electric shock to you or damage to  
the phone.  
Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device’s  
moving parts and prevent proper operation.  
Do not put the phone in or on heating devices, such  
as a microwave oven, stove, or radiator. The phone  
may explode when overheated.  
Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas,  
as its moving parts may be damaged.  
43  
Health and safety information  
When the phone or battery gets wet, the label  
indicating water damage inside the phone changes  
colour. In this case, phone repairs are no longer  
guaranteed by the manufacturer's warranty, even if  
the warranty for your phone has not expired.  
If your phone has a flash or light, do not use it too  
close to the eyes of people or animals. This may  
cause damage to their eyes.  
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement  
antenna. Unauthorised antennas or modified  
accessories may damage the phone and violate  
regulations governing radio devices.  
If the phone, battery, charger, or any accessory is  
not working properly, take it to your nearest  
qualified service facility. The personnel there will  
assist you, and if necessary, arrange for service.
