FCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION

In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies. The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.

Use only the supplied antenna or one that is approved. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result in a violation of FCC regulations.

Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact your local dealer for a replacement antenna.

Body-worn Operation

This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 1.5 cm. from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use only belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that maintain at least a 0.59 inch (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.

Vehicle Mounted External Antenna (optional, if available.)

A minimum separation distance of 7.9 inches (20cm) must be maintained between a person and the vehicle mounted external antenna to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements.

For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC web site at www

Installing the UIM card

1. If necessary, remove the battery by referring to

page 18.

2. Slide the UIM card into the slot ensuring that the

notched corner is at the top left and the gold contacts of the card face into the phone.

Removing the UIM Card

Slide the UIM card out of the slot.

Note: Despite of no UIM card in the phone, you can

make emergency call.

Using a Battery

Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. Use only approved batteries and chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for further details.

Note: You must fully charge the battery before using

your phone for the first time. A discharged battery is fully recharged in approximately 155 minutes for a standard battery.

Entering Text

At many times when using your phone, you will need to enter text; for example, when storing a name in the Phonebook, writing a text message or scheduling events in your calendar. You can enter alphanumeric characters into your phone by using your phone’s keypad.

Your phone has the following text input modes:

• Pinyin: allows you to enter a Chinese character using its Pinyin spelling, which is a phonetic system.

• Stroke: allows you to a Chinese character using the individual strokes labeled on the keys.

• T9 Word: allows you to enter English characters with only one keypress per character.

Note: The Pinyin, Stroke and Word modes use the T9

input method. The T9 mode automatically compares your key presses to an internal linguistic database to determine the correct word.

• ABC: allows you to enter English characters by pressing the key labeled with the desired character until the character displays.

• Symbol, Symbol2: allows you to enter many different symbols and special characters.

• 123: allows you to enter numbers.

Three-Way Calling

This feature enables you to conduct conference calls with two separate parties at the same time. The phone records both calls in the Outgoing Calls Log. You are billed airtime for each of the outgoing calls separately. Contact your service provider to activate Three-Way Calling.

During a three-way call, if one of the callers hangs up, you and the remaining caller will stay connected. If you initiated the call and you hang up first, all three parties are disconnected.
