• Extreme temperatures will affect the charging
capacity of your battery; it may require cooling
or warming first.
Precautions When Using Batteries
• Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places,
such as in a car in summer or winter
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion
standard battery.
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 battery is fully charged. Li-ion
batteries are particularly affected by
• Never use any charger or battery that is
damaged in any way.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).
• 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.
• 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.
• Battery charging time depends 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 including talk time and standby time is
noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to
buy a new battery.
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with
local regulations. Always recycle. Do not
dispose of batteries in a fire.
• 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.

Road Safety
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if
possible, place calls when you are not moving
or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls
when your car will be stationary. If you need
to make a call while moving, dial only a few
numbers, check the road and your mirrors,
then continue.
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.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional
conversations that may be distracting. Make
the people with whom you are talking aware
that you are driving and suspend
When driving a car, driving is your first
responsibility. When using your wireless phone
behind the wheel of a car, practice good common
sense and remember the following tips:
conversations that have the potential to divert
your attention from the road.
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its
features, such as speed dial and redial. If
available, these features help you to place
your call without taking your attention off the
road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial
the emergency number in the case of fire,
traffic accident or medical emergencies.
Remember, it is a free call on your wireless
phone!
2. When available, use a hands-free device. If
possible, add an extra layer of convenience
and safety to your wireless phone with one of
the many hands-free accessories available
today.
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in
emergencies. If you see a car accident, crime
in progress or other serious emergency where
lives are in danger, call the emergency
number, as you would want others to do for
you.
3. Position your wireless phone within easy
reach. Be able to access your wireless phone
without removing your eyes from the road. If
you get an incoming call at an inconvenient
time, let your voice mail answer it for you.
10. Call roadside assistance or a special non-
emergency wireless assistance number when
necessary. 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 any other
special non-emergency wireless number.
4. 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, ice and even
heavy traffic can be hazardous.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers
while driving. Jotting down a To Do list or
flipping through your phonebook takes your
attention away from your primary
responsibility, driving safely.

Persons with pacemakers:
Operating Environment
• Should always keep the phone more than 15
cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when the
phone is switched on
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.
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize potential interference
When connecting the phone or any accessory to
another device, read its user’s guide for detailed
safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible
products.
If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, switch off your
phone immediately.
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.
Switch off your phone 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.
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.

Vehicles
Emergency Calls
RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in
motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or
its representative regarding your vehicle.
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).
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.
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.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
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.
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, 999 or any
other official emergency number). Emergency
numbers vary by location.
Users are advised to switch off the phone 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.
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.
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.
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.

the phone warms up to its normal operating
temperature, moisture can form inside the
phone, which may damage the phone’s
electronic circuit boards.
• Switch off your phone before boarding an
aircraft. The use of wireless phones in aircraft
may be dangerous to the operation of the
aircraft, and is illegal.
• Failure to observe these instructions may lead
to the suspension or denial of telephone
services to the offender, or legal action, or
both.
• Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough
handling can break internal circuit boards.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents
or strong detergents to clean the phone. Wipe
