Radio frequency exposure information
In August 1996, the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) of the U.S. adopted an updated safety
standard for human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated
transmitters. The design of this phone complies with the
FCC guidelines and those standards.
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure, use only
belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that maintain a 1.5 cm.
separation distance between the user's body and the back of the
phone, including the antenna, whether extended or retracted.
The use of belt-clips, holsters and similar accessories should not
contain metallic components in its assembly. The use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply
with FCC RF exposure requirements, and should be avoided.
Sensible Use
Use only in the normal position (held to the ear). Avoid
unnecessary contact with the antenna when the phone
is switched on.
Accessories and Batteries
Use only Samsung-approved accessories and batteries.
Qualified Service
Only qualified service personnel may install or repair
your phone.

Charging the Battery
The travel adapter allows you to charge your phone’s
battery from any 110 volt AC standard wall outlet. Also
it allows you to make a phone call while the battery is
charging. The travel adapter will fully charge an “empty”
standard battery in approximately 4 hours.
1. With the battery in position in the phone, plug the
connector of the travel adapter into the jack at the
bottom of the phone.
2. Plug the adapter into a standard wall outlet. The
battery will begin charging. The service light will
flash and remain red while the battery strength icon
animates.
3. The service light indicates the status of the battery
being charged.
• Red: the battery is charging.
• Green: the battery is fully charged.
• Yellow: the battery is not correctly plugged in or
operating at a too high or too low temperature.
Please check the adapter and/or the battery.
4. When charging is finished (the light turns green),
unplug the adapter from the phone and from the
power outlet.
Low Battery Indicator
You can easily tell if your battery needs to be recharged
by checking the battery strength icon ( ) at the
upper-right corner of your phone’s display. The presence
of all three bars indicates a full charge, two bars
indicates a smaller charge and one bar indicates an
even smaller charge. No bars (the battery icon is empty)
means your battery must be charged.
When the battery charge level gets low, the battery
sensor blinks an empty battery icon ( ) and sounds a
warning tone. If the battery level gets too low, the
phone will automatically turn off. Unfortunately, if this
happens, you’ll lose whatever you are doing, and your
phone call will cut off. Watch the battery strength icon
and make sure your battery is adequately charged.
