Safety and usage information

Comply with the following precautions to avoid
dangerous or illegal situations and ensure peak
performance of your mobile phone.

Safety warnings

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 may 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 use only the minimum
volume setting necessary to hear your
conversation or music.

56

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

inate rapidly.

Handle and dispose of batteries and chargers
with care

Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers •
specically 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 re. 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.

57

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.

Turn off the phone in potentially explosive
environments

Do not use your phone at refuelling points (service
stations) or near fuels or chemicals. Turn off your
phone whenever directed by warning signs or
instructions. Your phone could cause explosions

or re in and around fuel or chemical storage and

transfer areas or blasting areas. Do not store or carry

ammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in

the same compartment as the phone, its parts, or
accessories.

Reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries

While using your phone, hold the phone 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.

58

Do not use the device 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.

Safety precautions

Drive safely at all times

Avoid using your phone while driving and obey all
regulations that restrict the use of mobile phones while
driving. Use hands-free accessories to increase your
safety when possible.

Follow all safety warnings and regulations

Comply with any regulations that restrict the use of a
mobile phone in a certain area.

Use only Samsung-approved accessories

Using incompatible accessories may damage your
phone or cause injury.

59

Turn off the phone near medical equipment

Your phone can interfere with medical equipment in
hospitals or health care facilities. Follow all regulations,
posted warnings, and directions from medical
personnel.

Turn off the phone or disable the wireless
functions when in an aircraft

Your phone can cause interference with aircraft
equipment. Follow all airline regulations and turn off
your phone or switch to a mode that disables the
wireless functions when directed by airline personnel.

Protect the phone and batteries from damage

Avoid exposing your phone and batteries to very •
cold or very hot temperatures (below 0° C or above
45° C).

Extreme temperatures can cause the deformation of •
the phone and reduce the charging capacity and life
of your phone and batteries.

Prevent batteries from contacting metal objects, as •
this can create a connection between the + and –
terminals of your batteries and lead to temporary or
permanent battery damage.

Never use a damaged charger or battery.•

60

Handle your phone carefully and sensibly

Do not disassemble your phone due to a risk of •
electric shock.

Do not allow your phone to get wet—liquids can •
cause serious damage and will change the colour
of the label that indicates water damage inside
the phone. Do not handle your phone with wet
hands. Water damage to your phone can void your
manufacturer's warranty.

Avoid using or storing your phone in dusty, dirty •
areas to prevent damage to moving parts.

Your phone is a complex electronic device—protect •
it from impacts and rough handling to avoid serious
damage.

Do not paint your phone, as paint can clog moving •
parts and prevent proper operation.

If your phone has a camera ash or light, avoid using •

it close to the eyes of children or animals.
Your phone may be damaged by exposure to •

magnetic elds. Do not use carrying cases or

accessories with magnetic closures or allow your

phone to come in contact with magnetic elds for

extended periods of time.
Do not use your device during a thunderstorm. Your •

device may malfunction and your risk of electric
shock is increased.

61

Avoid interference with other electronic
devices

Your phone emits radio frequency (RF) signals that
may interfere with unshielded or improperly shielded
electronic equipment, such as pacemakers, hearing
aids, medical devices, and other electronic devices in
homes or vehicles. Consult the manufacturers of your
electronic devices to solve any interference problems
you experience.

Important usage information

Use your phone in the normal position

Avoid contact with your phone's internal antenna.

Internal antenna

62

Allow only qualied personnel to service your

phone

Allowing unqualied personnel to service your phone

may result in damage to your phone and will void your
manufacturer’s warranty.

Ensure maximum battery and charger life

Avoid charging batteries for more than a week, as •
overcharging may shorten battery life.

Over time, unused batteries will discharge and must •
be recharged before use.

Disconnect chargers from power sources when not •
in use.

Use batteries only for their intended purpose.•

Handle SIM cards or memory cards with care

Do not remove a card while the phone is transferring •
or accessing information, as this could result in loss
of data and/or damage to the card or phone.

Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity, •
and electrical noise from other devices.

Do not touch gold-coloured contacts or terminals •

with your ngers or metal objects. If dirty, wipe the

card with a soft cloth.

63

Ensure access to emergency services

Emergency calls from your phone may not be possible
in some areas or circumstances. Before travelling
in remote or undeveloped areas, plan an alternate
method of contacting emergency services personnel.

Specic Absorption Rate (SAR) certication

information

Your phone conforms to European Union (EU)
standards that limit human exposure to radio frequency
(RF) energy emitted by radio and telecommunications
equipment. These standards prevent the sale of
mobile phones that exceed a maximum exposure level

(known as the Specic Absorption Rate, or SAR) of

2.0 W/kg.
During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this

model was 0.721 W/kg. In normal use, the actual
SAR is likely to be much lower, as the phone has
been designed to emit only the RF energy necessary
to transmit a signal to the nearest base station. By
automatically emitting lower levels when possible, your
phone reduces your overall exposure to RF energy.

The Declaration of Conformity of this manual
demonstrates your phones compliance with the
European Radio & Terminal Telecommunications
Equipment (R&TTE) directive. For more information
about the SAR and related EU standards, visit the
Samsung mobile phone website.
