Next time you synchronize your phone with your accounts, any  
updates contacts make to email account names, email  
addresses, etc. automatically update in your contacts list.  
Linking Contact Information  
Most people now maintain multiple email accounts, social  
networking logins, and other similar account information. For  
example, a Facebook account login name might differ from a  
corporate email account login because they are maintained  
separately and for different groups of people.  
For more information about synchronizing accounts, see “Get  
1. From the Home screen, touch  
.
This device can synchronize with multiple accounts (such as  
Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Corporate email, Google, or  
T-Mobile). When you synchronize your phone with those  
accounts, each account creates a separate contact entry in the  
Contacts list.  
2. Touch a contact name (the name you want to link to  
another entry). Note: typically this is the same contact with  
a different name or account information.  
3. Press  
Link contact.  
If one of your contacts (Amy Smith) has a regular email account  
that you maintain in Gmail, but also has a Facebook account  
under her maiden and married name, as well as a Yahoo! chat  
account, when you merge those accounts into your Contacts list  
you can link all of her entries and view the information in one  
record.  
4. Touch the second contact entry (the entry in which to link).  
The second contact is now linked with the first and the  
account information is merged into one screen.  
Note: The information is still maintained in both entries, but displays in one  
record for easier viewing when you link the contacts.  
Linking contact information makes sending messages easy. You  
can select any account email address or information all from one  
screen, versus searching multiple, individual screens to locate  
the desired account information.  
5. Touch the linked contacts to view the contact information  
you linked. The contacts and information displays with an  
icon next to the contact name to indicate what type of  
account information is contained in the entry.

About Wi-Fi  
Wi-Fi (short for "wireless fidelity") is a term used for certain  
types of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). Wi-Fi  
communication requires access to an existing and accessible  
Wireless Access Point (WAP). These WAPs can either be Open  
(unsecured) as within most Hot Spots, or Secured (requiring  
knowledge of the Router name and password).  
Note: The file directory of the memory card displays as a removable disk,  
separate from the internal memory.  
1. Insert a memory card into the device to transfer files from  
Activating Wi-Fi  
or to the memory card.  
By default, your device’s Wi-Fi feature is turned off (deactivated).  
Activating Wi-Fi allows your device to discover and connect to  
compatible in-range WAPs (Wireless Access Points).  
Note: To use any downloaded market application that requires a USB  
connection between your phone and your PC, you should first set the  
USB setting to Mass storage

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).  
Health and Safety Information  
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals  
Certification Information (SAR)  
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.  
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

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.  
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

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:  
1-800-822-8837 for more information.

The Travel Adapter for this phone has met applicable UL safety  
requirements. Please adhere to the following safety instructions

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.  
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?  
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.  
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.  
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 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  
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.  
156  
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:  
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.  
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health  
Environmental Protection Agency  
Federal Communications Commission  
Occupational Safety and Health Administration  
National Telecommunications and Information Administration  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Base stations are thus not the primary subject of the safety  
questions discussed in this document.  
Health and Safety Information  
157  
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 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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
158  
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.  
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?  
What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to radio  
frequency energy from my wireless phone?  
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.  
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).  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Health and Safety Information  
159  
Do hands-free kits for wireless phones reduce risks from  
exposure to RF emissions?  
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.  
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.  
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 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  
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.  
160  
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.

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.  
Additional information on the safety of RF exposures from various  
sources can be obtained from the following organizations  
(Updated 1/1/2010):  
FCC RF Safety Program:  
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:  
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA):  
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.  
Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA):  
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH):  
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.

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.  
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.  
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.  
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.

Caution!: Avoid potential hearing loss.  
For more information, please call 1-888-901-SAFE, or visit our

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.  
Important!: If you are using a handset other than a standard numeric  
keypad, please call 1-888-901-7233.

Association.  
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.

what you are listening to.  
Voice: (800) 222-2336  
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.

Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises, such  
as rock concerts, that might cause temporary hearing loss. Temporary  
hearing loss might cause unsafe volumes to sound normal.  
Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you  
experience ringing in your ears, hear muffled speech or experience

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.  
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;  
When connecting the phone or any accessory to another device,  
read its user's guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not  
connect incompatible products.  
Should use the ear opposite the implantable medical device to  
minimize the potential for interference;  
Health and Safety Information  
165  
     
Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to  
suspect that interference is taking place;  
The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system  
for wireless phones, to assist hearing device users find phones  
that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones  
have been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their  
box or a label located on the box.  
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.  
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on  
the user's hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device  
happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to  
use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your  
hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal  
needs.

FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC)  
Regulations for Wireless Devices  
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission  
(FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01-309 modified the  
exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility  
Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be  
compatible with hearing-aids.  
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and  
are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than  
phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two  
ratings.  
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are  
likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than  
phones that are not labeled. T4 is the better/higher of the two  
ratings.  
The intent of the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable access to  
telecommunications services for persons with hearing  
disabilities.  
While some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices  
(hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a  
buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are  
more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones  
also vary in the amount of interference they generate.  
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device  
manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find  
this rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device is  
relatively immune to interference noise. The hearing aid and  
wireless phone rating values are then added together.  
166  
       
A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6  
is considered for best use.  
The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the  
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.  
HAC/Wi-Fi Language  
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids  
for some of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there  
may be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone  
that have not been tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is  
important to try the different features of this phone thoroughly  
and in different locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear  
implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Consult  
your service provider about its return and exchange policies and  
for information on hearing aid compatibility.

In the above example, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating  
and the wireless phone meets the M3 level rating, the sum of the  
two values equal M5. This is synonymous for T ratings. This  
should provide the hearing aid user with "normal usage" while  
using their hearing aid with the particular wireless phone.  
"Normal usage" in this context is defined as a signal quality that  
is acceptable for normal operation.  
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.

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.  
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately

Posted Facilities  
Emergency Calls  
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted notices require  
you to do so.  
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).  
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.  
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.  
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.

Cautions  
Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly  
approved in this document could void your warranty for this  
equipment, and void your authority to operate this equipment.  
Only use approved batteries, antennas and chargers. The use of  
any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the  
phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to  
the phone.  
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.  
FCC Notice and Cautions  
FCC Notice  
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of  
equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending  
or sitting on it.  
The phone may cause TV or radio interference if used in close  
proximity to receiving equipment. The FCC can require you to

signal strength icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger the  
signal.  
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.  
If you're inside a building, being near a window may give you  
better reception.  
Check regularly that all wireless phone equipment in your vehicle is  
mounted and operating properly.  
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.  
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 both 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.  
Anytime the Power Save feature is activated, a message displays  
on the screen. When a signal is found, your phone returns to  
standby mode.  
Switch your phone off before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless  
phone in aircraft is illegal and may be dangerous to the aircraft's  
operation.  
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.  
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or  
denial of telephone services to the offender, or legal action, or both.  
Product Performance  
Getting the Most Out of Your Signal Reception  
Maintaining Your Phone's Peak Performance  
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  
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,  
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.  
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.  
Do not use the phone if the antenna is damaged.  
Battery Standby and Talk Time  
If your phone is equipped with an internal antenna, obstructing the  
internal antenna could inhibit call performance.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Health and Safety Information  
171  
     
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.  
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.  
Follow battery usage, storage and charging guidelines found in the  
user’s guide.  
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  
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.  
0 °C (32 °F).  
If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.  
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.  
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 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 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 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.  
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.  
172  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Care and Maintenance  
Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device's moving parts and  
prevent proper operation.  
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 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.  
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.  
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.  
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.
