Section 1: Important Safety Precautions

Important Safety Precautions

Please read these guidelines before using your wireless phone. Failure to comply with them may be dangerous or illegal.

Road Safety at All Times

Do not use your phone while driving, park the vehicle first. Obey all regulations that restrict the use of mobile phones while driving. Use handsfree accessories to increase your safety when possible.

Switch Off When Refueling

Do not use your phone at refuelling points (service stations) or near fuels or chemicals. Turn off your phone when directed to do so by warning signs or instructions. Your phone could cause explosions or fire in and around fuel or
5
chemical storage and transfer areas or blasting areas. Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the same compartment as the phone, its parts, or accessories.

Switch Off in an Aircraft

Wireless phones can cause interference. Using them in an aircraft is both illegal and dangerous.

Switch Off in Hospitals

Switch your phone off near medical equipment. Follow any regulations or rules in force in any area.

Keep your phone away from small children and pets

Keep your phone and all accessories out of the reach of small children or animals. Small parts can cause choking or serious injury if swallowed.

Protect your hearing

Excessive exposure to sound at high volumes can cause hearing damage. Always turn the volume down before plugging the earphones into an audio source and only use the minimum volume setting necessary to hear your conversation or music.

Install mobile phones and equipment with caution

Ensure that any mobile phones or related equipment installed in your vehicle are securely mounted. Avoid placing your phone and accessories near or in an air bag
deployment area. Improperly installed wireless equipment can cause serious injury when air bags inflate rapidly.

Avoid interference with pacemakers

Maintain a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between mobile phones and pacemakers to avoid potential interference, as recommended by manufacturers and the independent research group, Wireless Technology Research.
If you have any reason to suspect that your phone is interfering with a pacemaker or other medical device, turn off the phone immediately and contact the manufacturer of the pacemaker or medical device for guidance.

Interference

All wireless phones might be subject to interference, which could affect their performance.
Important Safety Precautions 6

Special Regulations

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 might cause interference or danger (for example, in a hospital).

Reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries

While using your phone, hold it with a relaxed grip, press the keys lightly, use special features that reduce the number of keys you have to press (such as templates and predictive text), and take frequent breaks.

Do not use the phone if the screen is cracked or broken

Broken glass or acrylic could cause injury to your hand and face. Bring the phone to a Samsung Service Centre to replace the screen. Damage caused by careless handling will void your manufacturer’s warranty.
7

Sensible Use

Use the phone in the intended position (held to the ear). If your phone has an external antenna, avoid unnecessary contact with the antenna when the phone is on.

Emergency Call

Ensure that the phone is switched on and in-service. Enter the emergency number for your present location and select
to make the call. Give all the necessary information as accurately as possible. Do not end the call until given permission to do so.

Liquid Resistance

Your phone is not liquid resistant. Keep it dry.

Accessories and Batteries

Use only Samsung-approved accessories and batteries. Use of any unauthorized accessories could damage your phone and might be dangerous.
Important!:
Although the phone can be used while the battery is
charging, the battery must be fully charged be fore first use, otherwise you could damage the battery.
Important!:
Using a non-supported battery might damage your phone.

Handle and dispose of batteries and chargers with care

Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers specifically designed for your phone. Incompatible batteries and chargers can cause serious injuries or damage to your phone.
Never dispose of batteries or phones in a fire. Follow all local regulations when disposing of used batteries or phones.
Never place batteries or phones on or in heating devices, such as microwave ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode when overheated.
Never crush or puncture the battery. Avoid exposing the battery to high external pressure, which can lead to an internal short circuit and overheating.

Qualified Service

Only qualified service personnel may repair your phone.
For more detailed safety information, see “Safety” on page 110.

For more information, refer to “Standard Limited Warranty” on page 120.

Setting Up Your Phone

Install the SIM card and battery
Before using your phone you need to correctly install the battery and the SIM card. The microSD™ card slot is located in the same internal area.
When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are provided with a plug-in Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card loaded with your subscription details, such as your personal identification number (PIN), available optional services, and many other features.
Important!:
The plug-in SIM card contacts and its information can
easily be damaged by scratching or bending, so be careful when handling, inserting, or removing the card. Keep all SIM cards out of reach of small children.

1. If the phone is on, press and hold [ ] and select
Power off

If you do not insert a SIM card, you can only use your phone’s non-network services and some menus.
11
5. Replace the back cover.
Installing the Memory Card
Your phone supports the use of a memory card (microSD™) for data storage of such things as data, music, pictures, and video files. This type of memory card is designed for use with this mobile phone and other devices. To store additional multimedia files, you must insert a memory card. Your phone accepts microSD™ or microSDHC™ memory cards with maximum capacities of 32 GB (depending on the memory card’s manufacturer and type).
Note:
Samsung uses approved industry standards for memory cards, but some brands might not be fully compatible with your phone. Using an incompatible memory card might damage your phone or the memory card and can corrupt data stored on the card.
Your phone only supports the FAT file structure for memory cards. If you insert a card formatted with a different file structure, your phone will prompt you to reformat the memory card.
Frequent writing and erasing of data will shorten the life span of memory cards.
When you insert a memory card into your phone, the file directory of the memory card will appear in the /sdcard folder.
To install the memory card:
1. Remove the back cover.
2. Insert the microSD card into the slot with the label
side facing down.
