Health and safety information
Health and safety information
SAR certification information
This phone meets European Union (EU) requirements
concerning exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured to not exceed the limits for
exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy, as recommended
by the EU Council. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for
the general population. The guidelines were developed by
independent scientific organisations through the periodic
and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The limits
include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as Specific Absorption Rate (SAR).
The SAR limit recommended by the EU Council is 2.0W/kg.
The highest SAR v a lue fo r this m odel p hon e wa s 0.3 48W/ kg.
* The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 2.0 watts/
kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams of body tissue. The
limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for a ny variations
in measurements. The SAR values may vary, depending on
national reporting requirements and the netw ork ban d .
70
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating
positions with the phon e transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all teste d frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified
power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while
operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to operate at multiple
power levels so as to use only the power required to reach
the network. In general, the closer you are to a base
station, the lower the power output of the phone.
Precautions when using batteries
• Never use a charger or battery that is damaged in any
way.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• If you use the phone near the network’s base station,
*
it uses less power. Talk and standby time are greatly
affected by the signal strength on the cellular network
and the paramete rs set by the network operator.
• Battery charging time depends on the remaining
battery charge, the type of battery, and the charger
used. The battery can be charged and discharged
hundreds of times, but it will gradually wear out. When
the operation tim e is noticeably sh orter than norm al, 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.
Disconnect the charger from the power source when it
is not in use. Do not leave the battery connected to a
charger for more than a week, since ov ercharging may
shorten its life.
• 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 because
the capacity and lifetime of the battery will be
reduced. T ry to keep the battery at room temperature.
A phone with a hot or cold battery may not work
temporarily , even when the battery is fully charged. Liion batteries are particularly affected by temperatures
below 0°C (32°F).
• Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental shortcircuiting can occur when a metallic object like a coin,
clip or pen causes a direct connection between the +
and – terminals of the battery (metal strips on the
battery). For example, do not carry a spare battery in
a pocket or bag where the battery may contact metal
objects. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage
the battery or the object causing the short-circuiting.
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
regulations. Always recycle. Do not dispose of
batteries in a fire.
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 while driving, follow local
regulations in the country or region you are in.
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in the
area you are in, and always switch off your ph one
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.

Health and safety information
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.
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. If you
have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, switch off your phone immediately.
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.
72
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 off your phone in health care facilities when
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
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 off your phone in any facility where posted notices
require you to do so.
Potentially explosive environments
Switch off your phone when in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Users are advised to switch off the phone while at a
refuelling point (service station). Users are reminded of
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 the areas
below decks on boats, chemical transfer or stor age
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 userprogrammed functions, which cannot guarantee
connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should never
rely solely on any wireless phone for essential
communications like medical emergencies.
To make or receive calls, the phone must be switched on
and in a service area with adequate signal strength.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless phone
networks or when certain network services and/or phone
features are in use. Check with local service providers.
To make an emergency call:
1. Switch on the phone.
2. Key in the emergency number for your present
location. Emergency numbers vary by location.
3. Press [].
Certain features like Call Barring may need to be
deactivated before you can make an emergency call.
