Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions specified by the FCC with the
phone transmitting at its highest certified power
level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR
is determined at the highest certified power level,
the actual SAR level of the phone while operation
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
wireless base station antenna, the lower the power
output. 
Before a phone model is available for sale to the
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that
it does not exceed the limit established by the
government-adopted requirement for safe exposure.
The tests are performed in positions and locations
(e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by
the FCC for each model. (Body-worn measurements
may differ among phone models, depending upon
available accessories and FCC requirements). While
there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all
meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
For body worn operation, to maintain compliance
with FCC RF exposure guidelines, use only Samsung-
approved accessories. When carrying the phone
while it is on, use the specific Samsung-supplied or
approved carrying case, holster, or other body-worn
accessory.
Use of non-Samsung-approved accessories may
violate FCC RF exposure guidelines and should be
avoided. Health and Safety Information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF
energy for the general population. The guidelines are
based on the safety standards previously set by both
U.S. and international standards bodies:
•  American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
IEEE. C95.1-1992
•  National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement (NCRP). Report 86. 1986
•  International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
•  Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6.
The standards include a substantial safety margind
designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones
employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set
by the FCC is 1.6W/kg *. 
*In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg
(W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of
safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements.

Precautions When Using Batteries
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion
standard battery. 
•  Never use any 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 parameters set by the
network operator.
•  Battery charging time depends on the remaining
battery charge and the type of battery and charger
used. The battery can be charged and discharged
hundreds of times, but it will gradually wear out.
When the operation time (talk time and standby
time) is noticeably shorter than normal, 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. When a charger is not in use, disconnect
it from the power source. Do not leave the battery
connected to a charger for more than a week,
since overcharging may shorten its life. For additional information concerning exposure to
radio frequency signals, see the following websites:

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, on that every user must
uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility.
When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of
a car, practice good common sense and remember
the following tips:
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features
such as speed dial and redial. If available, these
features help you to place your call without taking
your attention off the road.
2. When available, use a hands free device. If
possible, add an additional layer of convenience and
safety to your wireless phone with one of the many
hands free accessories available today.
3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Be
able to access your wireless phone without removing
your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call
at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voice
mail answer it for you.
4. Let the person you are speaking with know you are 
driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic
or hazardous weather conditions.  Rain, sleet, snow,
ice, and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while 
driving. Jotting down a “to do” list or flipping
through your address book takes attention away from
your primary responsibility, driving safely. •  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, such
as in a car in summer or winter conditions, as you
will reduce the capacity and life-time of the
battery. Always try to keep the battery at room
temperature. A phone with a hot or cold battery
may temporarily not work, even when the battery
is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly
affected by temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).
•  Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short
circuiting can occur when a metallic object (coin,
clip or pen) causes a direct connection between
the + and - terminals of the battery (metal strips
on the back of the battery), for example when
you carry a spare battery in a pocket or bag.
Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the
battery or the object causing the short-circuit.
•  Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
regulations. Always recycle. Do not dispose of
batteries in a fire. 
						

							Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force
in any area and always switch off your phone
whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may
cause interference of 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, it is
recommended that the equipment should only be
used in the normal operating position (held to your
ear with the antenna pointing over your shoulder).
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 separation of 6 inches (15 cm) be
maintained between a wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent

6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible,
place calls when you are not moving or before
pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car
will be stationary. If you need to make a call while
moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road and
your mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional
conversations that may be distracting. Make people
you are talking with aware you are driving and
suspend conversations that have the potential to
divert your attention from the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9-1-1
or other local emergency number in the case of fire,
traffic accident or medical emergencies. Remember,
it is a free call on your wireless phone!  
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in
emergencies. If you see an auto accident, crime in
progress or other serious emergency where lives are
in danger, call 9-1-1 or other local emergency
number, as you would want others to do for you.
10. Call roadside assistance or a special non-
emergency wireless assistance number when
necessary. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing
no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor
traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a
vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside 
assistance or other special non-emergency wireless
number.
