Use of AGPS in Emergency Calls
When you make an emergency call, the cellular network may 
activate AGPS technology in your mobile device to tell the 
emergency responders your approximate location.
AGPS has limitations and 
might not work in your area. 
Therefore:
Always tell the emergency responder your location to the best of 
your ability; and
Remain on the mobile device for as long as the emergency 
responder instructs you.
Navigation
Maps, directions, and other navigation-data, including data 
relating to your current location, may contain inaccurate or 
incomplete data, and circumstances can and do change over 
time. In some areas, complete information may not be 
available. Therefore, 
you should always visually confirm that 
the navigational instructions are consistent with what you see 
before following them. All users should pay attention to road 
conditions, closures, traffic, and all other factors that may 
impact safe driving or walking. Always obey posted road signs
.
Emergency Calls
This mobile device, like any wireless mobile device, operates 
using radio signals, wireless and landline networks, as well 
as user-programmed functions, which cannot guarantee 
connection in all conditions, areas, or circumstances. 
Therefore, you should never rely solely on any wireless 
mobile device for essential communications (medical 
emergencies, for example). Before traveling in remote or 
underdeveloped areas, plan an alternate method of 
contacting emergency services personnel. Remember, to 
make or receive any calls, the mobile device must be 
switched on and in a service area with adequate signal 
strength.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless mobile 
device networks or when certain network services and/or 
mobile device features are in use. Check with local service 
providers.
To make an emergency call:
1.If the mobile device is not on, switch it on.
2.Key in the emergency number for your present location 
(for example, 911 or other official emergency number). 
Emergency numbers vary by location. 
						

							Health and Safety Information       147 3.Press the “Send” key.
If certain features are in use (call blocking, for example), you 
may first need to deactivate those features before you can 
make an emergency call. Consult your User Manual and your 
local cellular service provider. When making an emergency 
call, remember to give all the necessary information as 
accurately as possible. Remember that your mobile device 
may be the only means of communication at the scene of an 
accident; do not cut off the call until given permission to do 
so.
Care and Maintenance
Your mobile device is a product of superior design and 
craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The 
suggestions below will help you fulfill any warranty 
obligations and allow you to enjoy this product for many 
years:
Keep your Samsung Mobile Device away from:
Liquids of any kind
Keep the mobile device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and 
liquids contain minerals that will corrode electronic 
circuits. If the mobile device does get wet, do not 
accelerate drying with the use of an oven, microwave, or dryer, because this may damage the mobile device and 
could cause a fire or explosion. 
Do not use the mobile device with a wet hand. Doing so 
may cause an electric shock to you or damage to the 
mobile device.
Extreme heat or cold
Avoid temperatures below 0°C / 32°F or above 45°C / 
113°F.
Microwaves
Do not try to dry your mobile device in a microwave oven. 
Doing so may cause a fire or explosion.
Dust and dirt
Do not expose your mobile device to dust, dirt, or sand.
Cleaning solutions
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong 
detergents to clean the mobile device. Wipe it with a soft 
cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water 
solution.
Shock or vibration
Do not drop, knock, or shake the mobile device. Rough 
handling can break internal circuit boards. 
						

							148
Paint
Do not paint the mobile device. Paint can clog the 
device’s moving parts or ventilation openings and prevent 
proper operation.
Responsible Listening
Caution! Avoid potential hearing loss.
Damage to hearing occurs when a person is exposed to loud 
sounds over time. The risk of hearing loss increases as 
sound is played louder and for longer durations. Prolonged 
exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the most 
common cause of preventable hearing loss. Some scientific 
research suggests that using portable audio devices, such as 
portable music players and cell phones, at high volume 
settings for long durations may lead to permanent 
noise-induced hearing loss. 
This includes the use of headphones (including headsets, 
earbuds, and Bluetooth
® or other wireless devices). 
Exposure to very loud sound has also been associated in 
some studies with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear), 
hypersensitivity to sound, and distorted hearing. Individual 
susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss and potential hearing problem varies. Additionally, the amount of sound 
produced by a portable audio device varies depending on the 
nature of the sound, the device settings, and the headphones 
that are used. As a result, there is no single volume setting 
that is appropriate for everyone or for every combination of 
sound, settings, and equipment.
You should follow some common sense recommendations 
when using any portable audio device:
Always turn the volume down before plugging the earphones into 
an audio source.
Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest 
volume at which you can hear adequately.
Be aware that you can adapt to higher volume settings over time, 
not realizing that the higher volume may be harmful to your 
hearing.
When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot 
hear the people speaking near you or if the person sitting next to 
you can hear what you are listening to. 
						

							Health and Safety Information       149
Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings. If you 
choose to listen to your portable device in a noisy environment, 
use noise-cancelling headphones to block out background 
environmental noise. By blocking background environment noise, 
noise cancelling headphones should allow you to hear the music 
at lower volumes than when using earbuds.
Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume increases, less 
time is required before you hearing could be affected.
Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises, 
such as rock concerts, that might cause temporary hearing loss. 
Temporary hearing loss might cause unsafe volumes to sound 
normal.
Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you 
experience ringing in your ears, hear muffled speech, or 
experience any temporary hearing difficulty after listening to your 
portable audio device, discontinue use and consult your doctor.

danger. When connecting the mobile device or any accessory 
to another device, read its users guide for detailed safety 
instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.
Using Your Mobile Device Near Other 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 mobile device. Consult the manufacturer to 
discuss alternatives.
Implantable Medical Devices
A minimum separation of six (6) inches should be maintained 
between a handheld wireless mobile device and an 
implantable medical device, such as a pacemaker or 
implantable cardioverter defibrillator, to avoid potential 
interference with the device.
Persons who have such devices:
Should ALWAYS keep the mobile device more than six (6) inches 
from their implantable medical device when the mobile device is

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 your 
mobile device off in health care facilities when any 
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. 
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment 
that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
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 
before using your mobile device in a motor vehicle. You 
should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that 
has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Switch your mobile device off in any facility where posted 
notices require you to do so.
Potentially Explosive Environments
Switch your mobile device off 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 the mobile device off while at a refueling 
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 below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage 
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. 
						

							152
When your Device is Wet
Do not turn on your device if it is wet. If your device is 
already on, turn it off and remove the battery immediately (if 
the device will not turn off or you cannot remove the battery, 
leave it as-is). Then, dry the device with a towel and take it 
to a service center.
FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) 
Regulations for Wireless Devices
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has 
established requirements for digital wireless mobile devices 
to be compatible with hearing aids and other assistive 
hearing devices.
When individuals employing some assistive hearing devices 
(hearing aids and cochlear implants) use wireless mobile 
devices, they may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining 
noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others 
to this interference noise, and mobile devices also vary in the 
amount of interference they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating 
system for wireless mobile devices to assist hearing device 
users find mobile devices that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all mobile devices have been rated. 
Mobile devices that are rated have the rating on their box or 
a label located on the box.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending 
on the users hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing 
device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not 
be able to use a rated mobile device successfully. Trying out 
the mobile device with your hearing device is the best way to 
evaluate it for your personal needs.M-Ratings: Wireless mobile devices rated M3 or M4 meet 
FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference 
to hearing devices than mobile devices that are not labeled. 
M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. M-ratings refer to 
enabling acoustic coupling with hearing aids that do not 
operate in telecoil mode.
T-Ratings: Mobile devices rated T3 or T4 meet FCC 
requirements and are likely to generate less interference to 
hearing devices than mobile devices that are not labeled. T4 
is the better/higher of the two ratings. T-ratings refer to 
enabling inductive coupling with hearing aids operating in 
telecoil mode. 
						

							Health and Safety Information       153 Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing aid 
manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you 
find this rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device 
is relatively immune to interference noise. 
Under the current industry standard, American National 
Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19, the hearing aid and 
wireless mobile device rating values are added together to 
indicate how usable they are together. For example, if a 
hearing aid meets the M2 level rating and the wireless 
mobile device meets the M3 level rating, the sum of the two 
values equals M5. 
Under the standard, this should provide the hearing aid user 
with normal use while using the hearing aid with the 
particular wireless mobile device. A sum of 6 or more would 
indicate excellent performance. 
However, these are not guarantees that all users will be 
satisfied. T ratings work similarly.
 
The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in 
the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 
standard.
Restricting Childrens Access to Your 
Mobile Device
Your mobile device is not a toy. Do not allow children to play 
with it because they could hurt themselves and others, 
damage the mobile device, or make calls that increase your 
mobile device bill.
M3                 +                    M2         =     5
T3                 +                    T2         =     5 
						

							154 Keep the mobile device and all its parts and accessories out 
of the reach of small children.
FCC Notice and Cautions
