included with your phone. Use only approved batteries and chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for further
details.

4 hours.
1. With the battery installed, temporarily remove the plastic cover on the right side of the phone and plug in the
wall charger’s connector into the jack.
Important!: Verify that the handset battery is installed prior to connecting the wall charger. If the battery is not installed and the wall
charger is connected, the handset power cycles continuously, preventing proper operation.

Picture messaging is a messaging service that provides delivery of personal multimedia messages from phone to

images, graphics, voice, and audio clips. A Picture Messaging message is a picture presentation contained in a
single file. It is not a text file with attachments.

Voice Recognition
Nuance is an advanced speech recognition software used to activate a wide variety of functions on your phone.
Nuance software automatically voice activates (up to 2,000 contacts) for voice dialing and searching. No
pre-recording or training needed. Speak a contact name naturally to dial, and use your voice to look up contacts,
launch applications and navigate phone menus.
1. In Idle mode, touch Menu
➔
Applications
➔
Voice recognition.
2. At the voice prompt, say a command. The list of available commands is listed below.
Note: This list of voice commands is briefly displayed.
97
Say a Command Options
• Call <Name or #>: dials a name or number listed in your contact list. If multiple numbers exist (i.e. home, work,
or other) say the name and the number type (location).
• Send Text <Name or #>: displays the Create Text Message screen.
• Lookup <Name>: allows you use a voice command to locate and display contact information stored in the
Contacts list. For more information, refer to “Finding a Phonebook Entry” on page 50.
• Go to <Menu>: accesses all the features of your phone if they are activated, such as: Web, Calendar, Ringtones,
Tasks, Phonebook, Voice mail, and Games and Apps.
• Check <Item>: lets you check your phone's status in the same report (Status, Messages, Missed Calls, Time,
Signal Strength, Network, Battery, My Phone Number, and Volume).
While the Say a command screen displays you have two options:
•
•
Tutorial: provides examples of how to use the voice commands.
Settings: lists the settings for voice command software such as: Confirmation, Adaptation, Audio Modes, Driving Mode,
Speakerphone, and About.
If the phone does not recognize your command the Command not recognized screen displays with two options:
Restart: touch and try the command options again.
•
Speak clearly when giving your command. There is no need for you to speak slowly or with added emphasis. The
voice recognition software has been optimized to understand your speech in its natural form. If it does not
recognize your command after a few seconds, a voice prompt asks you to repeat the command. If it does not
recognize your command again, the following message displays “Sorry, no match found,” and voice recognition
turns off.
Important!: You must end your current Voice Commands call before you can make another call.
Voice Recognition Tips
•
•
Wait for the tone before you speak.
Speak clearly and at a normal volume.
• There is no need to use paused speech. The voice recognition software has been trained to recognize natural
speech, and performs best when you speak naturally.
• In very noise environments, it may be helpful to use the supplied earset or optional Bluetooth headsets.

Section 13: Health and Safety Information
This section outlines the safety precautions associated with using your phone. These safety precautions should be
followed to safely use your phone.
Health and Safety Information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Certification Information (SAR)
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
Counsel on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE).
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.
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).
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.
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.
Health and Safety Information
164
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.
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 handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
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 for this model phone as reported to the
FCC are:
GSM 850
•
•
Head: 0.73 W/Kg.
Body-worn: 1.03 W/Kg.
GSM 1900
•
•
Head: 1.31 W/Kg.
Body-worn: 1.13 W/Kg.
UMTS4
•
•
Head: 1.09 W/Kg.
Body-worn: 0.443 W/Kg.
SAR information on this and other model phones can be viewed online at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea. To find
information that pertains to a particular model phone, this site uses the phone FCC ID number which is usually
printed somewhere on the case of the phone.
Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the battery pack to find the number. Once you have the FCC ID number
for a particular phone, follow the instructions on the website and it should provide values for typical or maximum
SAR for a particular phone. Additional product specific SAR information can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/cgb/sar.

Consumer Information on Wireless Phones
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published a series of Questions and Answers for consumers
relating to radio frequency (RF) exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publication includes the following
information:
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.
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 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
Health and Safety Information
166
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.
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.
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.
167
Base stations are thus not the primary subject of the safety questions discussed in this document.
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 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, glioma,
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 phones 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.
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 ten 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.
Health and Safety Information
168
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).
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 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.
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 products, you can use measures like those described above to reduce your RF exposure
from wireless phone use.
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.
169
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.
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.
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.
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
Health and Safety Information
170
manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from wireless phone EMI. FDA has
tested 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 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.

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 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:
171
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.
2. When available, use a hands-free device. If possible, add an additional layer of convenience and safety to
your wireless phone with one of the many hands free accessories available today.
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.
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
address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility, driving safely.
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.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting. Make people you are talking
with aware you are driving and suspend conversations that have the potential to divert your attention from
the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency number in the case of fire,
traffic accident or medical emergencies.
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. 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 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 other special non-
emergency number.

Responsible Listening
Caution!: Avoid potential hearing loss.
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 cellular telephones, 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.
You should follow some commonsense recommendations when using any portable audio device:
•
•
Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume at which you can hear adequately.
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.
173
•
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.

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 if you are using an external
antenna).
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic 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.
175
Implantable Medical Devices
A minimum separation of six (6) inches should be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and an
implantable medical device, such as a pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator, to avoid potential
interference with the device.
Persons who have such devices:
•
•
•
•
•
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) inches from their implantable medical device when the phone is turned ON;
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
Should use the ear opposite the implantable medical device to minimize the potential for interference;
Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is taking place;
Should read and follow the directions from the manufacturer of your implantable medical device. If you have any questions
about using your wireless phone with such a device, consult your health care provider.
For more information see:
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.
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.
Health and Safety Information
176
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.
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.
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.
Restricting Children's access to your Phone
Your phone is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with it because they could hurt themselves and
others, damage the phone or make calls that increase your phone bill.
177

Product Performance
Getting the Most Out of Your Signal Reception
The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the signal strength in your area. Your phone informs you of
the current signal strength by displaying a number of bars next to the signal strength icon. The more bars displayed,
the stronger the signal.
If you're inside a building, being near a window may give you better reception.
Understanding the Power Save Feature
If your phone is unable to find a signal after searching, a Power Save feature is automatically activated. If your
phone is active, it periodically rechecks service availability or you can check it yourself by pressing any key.
Anytime the Power Save feature is activated, a message displays on the screen. When a signal is found, your phone
returns to standby mode.
Understanding How Your Phone Operates
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it's turned on, it receives and transmits radio
frequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This
power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.
Maintaining Your Phone's Peak Performance
For the best care of your phone, only authorized personnel should service your phone and accessories. Faulty
service may void the warranty.
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.
•
•
•
To ensure that the Hearing Aid Compatibility rating for your phone is maintained, secondary transmitters such as Bluetooth and
WLAN components must be disabled during a call. For more information, refer to the “Disabling Bluetooth or WLAN” section.
If your phone is equipped with an external antenna, hold the phone with the antenna raised, fully-extended and over your
shoulder.
Do not hold, bend or twist the phone's antenna, if applicable.
179
•
•
•
•
Do not use the phone if the antenna is damaged.
If your phone is equipped with an internal antenna, obstructing the internal antenna could inhibit call performance.
Speak directly into the phone's receiver.
Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off
and remove the battery. If it is inoperable, call Customer Care for service.
Availability of Various Features/Ring Tones
Many services and features are network dependent and may require additional subscription and/or usage charges.
Not all features are available for purchase or use in all areas. Downloadable Ring Tones may be available at an
additional cost. Other conditions and restrictions may apply. See your service provider for additional information.
Battery Standby and Talk Time
Standby and talk times will vary depending on phone usage patterns and conditions. Battery power consumption
depends on factors such as network configuration, signal strength, operating temperature, features selected,
frequency of calls, and voice, data, and other application usage patterns.
Battery Precautions
•
Avoid dropping the cell phone. Dropping it, 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.
•
•
•
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way.
Do not modify or remanufacture the battery as this could result in serious safety hazards.
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.
Follow battery usage, storage and charging guidelines found in the user’s guide.
•
•
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 (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.
•
Do not use incompatible cell phone batteries and chargers. Some Web sites and second-hand dealers, not associated with
reputable manufacturers and carriers, might be selling incompatible or even counterfeit batteries and chargers. Consumers
Health and Safety Information
180
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.
•
Misuse or use of incompatible phones, batteries, and charging devices could result in damage to the equipment and a possible
risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other serious hazard.
•
•
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 battery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly affected by temperatures below
0 °C (32 °F).
•
•
•
Do not place the phone in areas that may get very hot, such as on or near a cooking surface, cooking appliance, iron, or
radiator.
Do not get your phone or battery wet. Even though they will dry and appear to operate normally, the circuitry could slowly
corrode and pose a safety hazard.
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. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the object causing the short-circuiting.
•
•
Do not permit a battery out of the phone to come in contact with metal objects, such as coins, keys or jewelry.
Do not crush, puncture or put a high degree of pressure on the battery as this can cause an internal short-circuit, resulting in
overheating.
•
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or
business trash may be prohibited. For safe disposal options for Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest Samsung authorized
service center. Always recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.
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.
•
•
•
•
•
Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small children.
Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
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 use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas, as its moving parts may be damaged.
Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp
or melt certain plastics.
181
•
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.
•
•
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 it with a soft cloth slightly
dampened in a mild soap-and-water solution.
•
•
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, a stove or a radiator. The phone may explode when
overheated.
•
•
If your phone is equipped with an external antenna, use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized
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.
