Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals  
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published  
information for consumers relating to Radio Frequency (RF) exposure  
from wireless phones. The FDA publication includes the following  
information:  
Do cell phones pose a health hazard?  
Many people are concerned that cell phone radiation will cause  
cancer or other serious health hazards. The weight of scientific  
evidence has not linked cell phones with any health problems.  
Cell phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Over the  
past 15 years, scientists have conducted hundreds of studies looking  
at the biological effects of the radio frequency energy emitted by cell  
phones. While some researchers have reported biological changes  
associated with RF energy, these studies have failed to be  
replicated. The majority of studies published have failed to show an  
association between exposure to radio frequency from a cell phone  
and health problems.  
The low levels of RF cell phones emit while in use are in the  
microwave frequency range. They also emit RF at substantially  
reduced time intervals when in the stand-by mode. Whereas high  
254  
         
levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure  
to low level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no  
known adverse health effects.  
The biological effects of radio frequency energy should not be  
confused with the effects from other types of electromagnetic  
energy.  
Very high levels of electromagnetic energy, such as is found in  
X-rays and gamma rays, can ionize biological tissues. Ionization is a  
process where electrons are stripped away from their normal  
locations in atoms and molecules. It can permanently damage  
biological tissues including DNA, the genetic material.  
The energy levels associated with radio frequency energy, including  
both radio waves and microwaves, are not great enough to cause  
ionization of atoms and molecules. Therefore, RF energy is a type of  
non-ionizing radiation. Other types of non-ionizing radiation include  
visible light, infrared radiation (heat), and other forms of  
electromagnetic radiation with relatively low frequencies.  
While RF energy does not ionize particles, large amounts can  
increase body temperatures and cause tissue damage. Two areas of  
the body, the eyes and the testes, are particularly vulnerable to RF  
heating because there is relatively little blood flow in them to carry  
away excess heat.  
Research Results to Date: Is there a connection between RF  
and certain health problems?  
The results of most studies conducted to date say no. In addition,  
attempts to replicate and confirm the few studies that have shown a  
connection have failed.  
Health and Safety Information  
255  
The scientific community at large therefore believes that the weight  
of scientific evidence does not show an association between  
exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) from cell phones and adverse  
health outcomes. Still the scientific community has supported  
additional research to address gaps in knowledge. Some of these  
studies are described below.  
Interphone Study  
Interphone is a large international study designed to determine  
whether cell phones increase the risk of head and neck cancer. A  
report published in the International Journal of Epidemiology (June,  
2010) compared cell phone usage for more than 5,000 people with  
brain tumors (glioma and meningioma) and a similar number of  
healthy controls.  
Results of this study did NOT show that cell phones caused brain  
cancer. In this study, most people had no increased risk of brain  
cancer from using cell phones. For people with the heaviest use of  
cell phones (an average of more than ½ hour per day, every day, for  
over 10 years) the study suggested a slight increase in brain cancer.  
However, the authors determined that biases and errors prevented  
any conclusions being drawn from this data. Additional information  
about Interphone can be found at  
Interphone is the largest cell phone study to date, but it did not  
answer all questions about cell phone safety. Additional research is  
being conducted around the world, and the FDA continues to monitor  
developments in this field.  
256  
InternationalCohortStudyonMobilePhoneUsers(COSMOS)  
The COSMOS study aims to conduct long-term health monitoring of a  
large group of people to determine if there are any health issues  
linked to long-term exposure to radio frequency energy from cell  
phone use. The COSMOS study will follow approximately 300,000  
adult cell phone users in Europe for 20 to 30 years. Additional  
information about the COSMOS study can be found at  
.
Risk of Brain Cancer from Exposure to Radio Frequency  
Fields in Childhood and Adolescence (MOBI-KIDS)  
MOBI-KIDS is an international study investigating the relationship  
between exposure to radio frequency energy from communication  
technologies including cell phones and brain cancer in young people.  
This is an international multi-center study involving 14 European and  
non-European countries. Additional information about MOBI-KIDS  
can be found at  
http://www.creal.cat/programes-recerca/en_projectes-creal/  
view.php?ID=39.  
Surveillance,Epidemiology,andEndResults(SEER)Program  
of the National Cancer Institute  
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) actively follows cancer statistics  
in the United States to detect any change in rates of new cases for  
brain cancer. If cell phones play a role in risk for brain cancer, rates  
should go up, because heavy cell phone use has been common for  
quite some time in the U.S. Between 1987 and 2005, the overall  
age-adjusted incidence of brain cancer did not increase. Additional  
information about SEER can be found at  
.
Health and Safety Information  
257  
Cell Phone Industry Actions  
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory  
actions, the FDA has urged the cell phone industry to take a number  
of steps, including the following:  
Support-needed research on possible biological effects of RF for the type  
of signal emitted by cell phones;  
Design cell phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user;  
and  
Cooperate in providing users of cell phones with the current information  
on cell phone use and human health concerns.  
The FDA also is working with voluntary standard-setting bodies such  
as the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the  
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection  
(ICNIRP), and others to assure that safety standards continue to  
adequately protect the public.  
Reducing Exposure: Hands-Free Kits and Other  
Accessories  
Steps to Reduce Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy  
If there is a risk from being exposed to radio frequency energy (RF)  
from cell phones - and at this point we do not know that there is - it  
is probably very small. But, if you are concerned about avoiding even  
potential risks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize your RF  
exposure.  
Reduce the amount of time spent using your cell phone;  
Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance between your  
head and the cell phone.  
258  
 
Hands-Free Kits  
Hands-free kits may include audio or Bluetooth® headsets and  
various types of body-worn accessories such as belt-clips and  
holsters. Combinations of these can be used to reduce RF energy  
absorption from cell phones.  
Headsets can substantially reduce exposure because the phone is  
held away from the head in the user's hand or in approved  
body-worn accessories. Cell phones marketed in the U.S. are  
required to meet RF exposure compliance requirements when used  
against the head and against the body.  
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions  
from cell phones, there is no reason to believe that hands-free kits  
reduce risks. Hands-free kits can be used for convenience and  
comfort. They are also required by law in many states if you want to  
use your phone while driving.  
CellPhoneAccessoriesthatClaimtoShieldtheHeadfromRF  
Radiation  
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions  
from cell phones, there is no reason to believe that accessories  
which claim to shield the head from those emissions reduce risks.  
Some products that claim to shield the user from RF absorption use  
special phone cases, while others involve nothing more than a  
metallic accessory attached to the phone.  
Studies have shown that these products generally do not work as  
advertised. Unlike “hands-free” kits, these so-called “shields” may  
interfere with proper operation of the phone. The phone may be  
forced to boost its power to compensate, leading to an increase in  
RF absorption.  
Health and Safety Information  
259  
Children and Cell Phones  
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to any users of cell  
phones from RF exposure, including children and teenagers. The  
steps adults can take to reduce RF exposure apply to children and  
teenagers as well.  
Reduce the amount of time spent on the cell phone;  
Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance between the head  
and the cell phone.  
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have  
advised that children be discouraged from using cell phones at all.  
For example, The Stewart Report from the United Kingdom made  
such a recommendation in December 2000. In this report, a group of  
independent experts noted that no evidence exists that using a cell  
phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their  
recommendation to limit cell phone use by children was strictly  
precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any  
health hazard exists.  
Additional information on the safety of RF exposures from various  
sources can be obtained from the following organizations (updated

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)  
Certification Information  
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed  
and manufactured not to exceed the exposure limits for Radio  
Frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications  
Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government.  
These FCC RF exposure limits are derived from the  
recommendations of two expert organizations: the National Council  
on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of  
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the  
recommendations were developed by scientific and engineering  
experts drawn from industry, government, and academia after  
extensive reviews of the scientific literature related to the biological  
effects of RF energy.  
Health and Safety Information  
261  
   
The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile phones  
employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption  
Rate (SAR). The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF  
energy by the human body expressed in units of watts per kilogram  
(W/kg). The FCC requires wireless phones to comply with a safety  
limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).  
The FCC SAR limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give  
additional protection to the public and to account for any variations  
in measurements.  
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating positions  
accepted 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 operating can be well below the maximum  
reported 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 of the phone.  
Before a new model phone is available for sale to the public, it must  
be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the SAR  
limit established by the FCC. Tests for each model phone are  
performed in positions and locations (e.g. at the ear and worn on the  
body) as required by the FCC. For body-worn operation, this phone  
has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when used  
with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions the  
mobile device a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.  
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF  
exposure guidelines. The FCC has granted an Equipment  
Authorization for this mobile phone with all reported SAR levels  
262  
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines.  
The maximum SAR values for this model phone as reported to the  
FCC are:  
Head: 1.04 W/kg.  
Body-worn: 0.57 W/kg.  
SAR information on this and other model phones can be accessed  
online on the FCC's website through http://transition.fcc.gov/oet/  
rfsafety/sar.html. To find information that pertains to a particular  
model phone, this site uses the phone FCC ID number which is  
usually printed somewhere on the case of the phone. Sometimes it  
may be necessary to remove the battery pack to find the number.  
Once you have the FCC ID number for a particular phone, follow the  
instructions on the website and it should provide values for typical or  
maximum SAR for a particular phone. Additional SAR information can  
also be obtained at  
.

Smart Practices While Driving  
On the Road - Off the Phone  
The primary responsibility of every driver is the safe operation of his  
or her vehicle.  
Responsible drivers understand that no secondary task should be  
performed while driving whether it be eating, drinking, talking to  
passengers, or talking on a mobile phone - unless the driver has  
assessed the driving conditions and is confident that the secondary  
task will not interfere with their primary responsibility. Do not engage  
in any activity while driving a moving vehicle which may cause you to  
264  
   
take your eyes off the road or become so absorbed in the activity that  
your ability to concentrate on the act of driving becomes impaired  
.
Samsung is committed to promoting responsible driving and giving  
drivers the tools they need to understand and address distractions.  
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices and their  
accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. The use  
of these devices may be prohibited or restricted in certain areas. For  
example, only hands-free use may be permitted in certain areas.  
Before answering calls, consider your circumstances. Let the call go  
to voicemail when driving conditions require. Remember, driving  
comes first, not the call!  
If you consider a call necessary and appropriate, follow these tips:  
Use a hands-free device;  
Secure your phone within easy reach;  
Place calls when you are not moving;  
Plan calls when your car will be stationary;  
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations;  
Let the person with whom you are speaking know that you are driving and  
will suspend the call if necessary;  
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving;  
Notice regarding legal restrictions on mounting this device in an  
automobile:  
Laws in some states may prohibit mounting this device on or near  
the windshield of an automobile. In other states, the law may permit  
mounting this device only in specific locations in the automobile. Be  
sure to consult the state and local laws or ordinances where you  
Health and Safety Information

Battery Use and Safety  
Important! Handle and store batteries properly to avoid injury or  
damage. Most battery issues arise from improper handling  
of batteries and, particularly, from the continued use of  
damaged batteries.  
Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise attempt to  
change the form of your battery. Do not put a high degree of pressure  
on the battery. This can cause leakage or an internal short-circuit,  
resulting in overheating.  
Do not let the phone or battery come in contact with liquids. Liquids  
can get into the phone's circuits, leading to corrosion. Even when the  
phone appears to be dry and appears to operate normally, the circuitry  
could slowly corrode and pose a safety hazard. If the phone and/or battery  
get wet, have them checked by your service provider or contact Samsung,  
even if they appear to be working properly.  
266  
   
Do not place your battery in or near a heat source. Excessive heating  
can damage the phone or the battery and could cause the phone or the  
battery to explode. Do not dry a wet or damp battery with an appliance or  
heat source such as a microwave oven, hair dryer, iron, or radiator. Avoid  
leaving your phone in your car in high temperatures.  
Do not dispose of the phone or the battery in a fire. The phone or the  
battery may explode when overheated.  
Do not handle a damaged or leaking battery. Do not let leaking battery  
fluid come in contact with your eyes, skin or clothing. For safe disposal  
options, contact your nearest Samsung-authorized service center.  
Avoid dropping the cell phone. Dropping the phone or the battery,  
especially on a hard surface, can potentially cause damage to the phone  
and battery. If you suspect damage to the phone or battery, take it to a  
service center for inspection.  
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way.  
Do not allow the battery to touch metal objects. Accidental  
short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object (coin, key, jewelry, clip,  
or pen) causes a direct connection between the + and - terminals of the  
battery (metal strips on 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-circuiting.  
Important! Use only Samsung-approved batteries, and recharge your  
battery only with Samsung-approved chargers which are  
specifically designed for your phone.  
Health and Safety Information  
267  
WARNING!  
Use of a non-Samsung-approved battery or charger may present a risk  
of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. Samsung's warranty does  
not cover damage to the phone caused by non-Samsung-approved  
batteries and/or chargers.  
Do not use incompatible cell phone batteries and chargers. Some  
websites and second-hand dealers not associated with reputable  
manufacturers and carriers, might be selling incompatible or even  
counterfeit batteries and chargers. Consumers should purchase  
manufacturer or carrier-recommended products and accessories. If  
unsure about whether a replacement battery or charger is compatible,  
contact the manufacturer of the battery or charger.  
Misuse or use of incompatible phones, batteries, and charging  
devices could result in damage to the equipment and a possible risk  
of fire, explosion, or leakage, leading to serious injuries, damages to  
your phone, or other serious hazard

Location-based information includes information that can be used to  
determine the approximate location of a mobile device. Mobile  
devices which are connected to a wireless network transmit  
location-based information. Additionally, if you use applications that  
require location-based information (e.g. driving directions), such  
applications transmit location-based information. The location-  
based information may be shared with third-parties, including your  
wireless service provider, applications providers, Samsung, and  
other third-parties providing services.  
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.  
272  
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.  
Health and Safety Information  
273  
   
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.  
3. Press  
.
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.  
274  
   
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.  
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  
Health and Safety Information  
275  
   
(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.  
276  
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.

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 turned ON;  
Should not carry the mobile device in a breast pocket;  
Should use the ear opposite the implantable medical device to minimize  
the potential for interference;  
Should turn the mobile device OFF immediately if there is any reason to  
suspect that interference is taking place;  
Should read and follow the directions from the manufacturer of your  
implantable medical device. If you have any questions about using your  
wireless mobile device with an implantable medical device, consult your  
health care provider.  
.
Health and Safety Information 279  
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  
280  
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.  
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.  
Restricting Children's 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.  
Keep the mobile device and all its parts and accessories out of the  
reach of small children.  
FCC Notice and Cautions  
FCC Notice  
The mobile device may cause TV or radio interference if used in  
close proximity to receiving equipment. The FCC can require you to  
stop using the mobile device if such interference cannot be  
eliminated. Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane  
or butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection Standard  
(NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the National Fire  
Protection Association.  
Health and Safety Information  
281  
       
Cautions  
Any changes or modifications to your mobile device not expressly  
approved in this document could void your warranty for this  
equipment and void your authority to operate this equipment. Only  
use approved batteries, antennas, and chargers. The use of any  
unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the mobile  
device warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the  
mobile device.  
Although your mobile device is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of  
equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or  
sitting on it.  
Other Important Safety Information  
Only qualified personnel should service the mobile device or install the  
mobile device in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous  
and may invalidate any warranty applicable to the device.  
Ensure that any mobile devices or related equipment installed in your  
vehicle are securely mounted.  
Check regularly that all wireless mobile device equipment in your vehicle  
is mounted and operating properly.  
When using a headset in dry environments, static electricity can build up  
in the headset and cause a small quick static electrical shock. To minimize  
the risk of electrostatic discharge from the headset avoid using the  
headset in extremely dry environments or touch a grounded unpainted  
metal object to discharge static electricity before inserting the headset.  
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in  
the same compartment as the mobile device, its parts, or accessories.  
282  
   
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag inflates  
with great force. Do not place objects, including installed or portable  
wireless equipment near or in the area over the air bag or in the air bag  
deployment area. If wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air  
bag inflates, serious injury could result.  
Switch your mobile device off before boarding an aircraft. The use of  
wireless mobile devices in aircraft is illegal and may be dangerous to the  
aircraft's operation. Check with appropriate authorities before using any  
function of a mobile device while on an aircraft.  
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or denial  
of cell phone services to the offender, or legal action, or both.  
While using your device, leave some lights on in the room and do not hold  
the screen too close to your eyes.  
Seizures or blackouts can occur when you are exposed to flashing lights  
while watching videos or playing games for extended periods. If you feel  
any discomfort, stop using the device immediately.  
Reduce risk of repetitive motion injuries. When you repetitively perform  
actions, such as pressing keys, drawing characters on a touch screen with  
your fingers, or playing games, you may experience occasional discomfort  
in your hands, neck, shoulders, or other parts of your body. When using  
your device for extended periods, hold the device with a relaxed grip,  
press the keys lightly, and take frequent breaks. If you continue to have  
discomfort during or after such use, stop use and see a physician.  
If your device has a camera flash or light, do not use the flash or light close

13. U.S. Government End Users Restricted Rights. The Software is  
licensed only with "restricted rights" and as "commercial items"  
consisting of "commercial software" and "commercial software  
documentation" with only those rights as are granted to all other end  
users pursuant to the terms and conditions herein. All Products are  
provided only with "restricted rights" with only those rights as are  
granted to all other end users pursuant to the terms and conditions  
herein. All Software and Products are provided subject to Federal  
Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.227.19.  
298  
14. APPLICABLE LAW. This EULA is governed by the laws of TEXAS,  
without regard to conflicts of laws principles. This EULA shall not be  
governed by the UN Convention on Contracts for the International  
Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly excluded.  
15. DISPUTE RESOLUTION.  
(a) Non-United States residents. If a dispute, controversy or  
difference is not amicably settled, it shall be finally resolved by  
arbitration in Seoul, Korea in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of  
the Korean Commercial Arbitration Board. The award of arbitration  
shall be final and binding upon the parties.  
(b) United States residents. ALL DISPUTES WITH SAMSUNG  
ELECTRONICS CO. ARISING IN ANY WAY FROM THIS EULA OR YOUR  
USE OF THE SOFTWARE SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY  
THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION, AND NOT BY A COURT  
OR JURY. Any such dispute shall not be combined or consolidated  
with any other person's or entity's claim or dispute, and specifically,  
without limitation of the foregoing, shall not under any  
circumstances proceed as part of a class action. The arbitration shall  
be conducted before a single arbitrator, whose award may not  
exceed, in form or amount, the relief allowed by the applicable law.  
The arbitration shall be conducted according to the American  
Arbitration Association (AAA) Commercial Arbitration Rules  
applicable to consumer disputes. This arbitration provision is entered  
pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. The laws of the State of  
Texas, without reference to its choice of laws principles, shall govern  
the interpretation of the EULA and all disputes that are subject to this  
arbitration provision. The arbitrator shall decide all issues of  
interpretation and application of this arbitration provision and the  
EULA. For any arbitration in which your total damage claims,  
Warranty Information  
299  
exclusive of attorney fees and expert witness fees, are $5,000.00 or  
less ("Small Claim"), the arbitrator may, if you prevail, award your  
reasonable attorney fees, expert witness fees and costs as part of  
any award, but may not grant Samsung Electronics Co. its attorney  
fees, expert witness fees or costs unless it is determined that the  
claim was brought in bad faith. In a Small Claim case, you shall be  
required to pay no more than half of the total administrative, facility  
and arbitrator fees, or $50.00 of such fees, whichever is less, and  
Samsung Electronics Co. shall pay the remainder of such fees.  
Administrative, facility and arbitrator fees for arbitrations in which  
your total damage claims, exclusive of attorney fees and expert  
witness fees, exceed $5,000.00 ("Large Claim") shall be determined  
according to AAA rules. In a Large Claim case, the arbitrator may  
grant to the prevailing party, or apportion among the parties,  
reasonable attorney fees, expert witness fees and costs. Judgment  
may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any court of competent  
jurisdiction. This arbitration provision also applies to claims against  
Samsung Electronics Co.'s employees, representatives and affiliates  
if any such claim arises from the licensing or use of the Software.  
You may opt out of this dispute resolution procedure by providing  
notice to Samsung Electronics Co. no later than 30 calendar days  
from the date of the first consumer purchaser's purchase of this  
device. To opt out, you must send notice by e-mail to  
[email protected], with the subject line: "Arbitration Opt  
Out." You must include in the opt out e-mail (a) your name and  
address; (b) the date on which the device was purchased; (c) the  
device model name or model number; and (d) the IMEI or MEID or  
Serial Number, as applicable, if you have it (the IMEI or MEID or  
Serial Number can be found (i) on the device box; (ii) on the device  
300  
information screen, which can be found under "Settings;" (iii) on a  
label on the back of the device beneath the battery, if the battery is  
removable; and (iv) on the outside of the device if the battery is not  
removable). Alternatively, you may opt out by calling 1-888-987-  
4357 no later than 30 calendar days from the date of the first  
consumer purchaser's purchase of the device and providing the  
same information. These are the only two forms of notice that will be  
effective to opt out of this dispute resolution procedure. Opting out  
of this dispute resolution procedure will not affect your use of the  
device or its preloaded Software, and you will continue to enjoy the  
benefits of this license.  
16. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; SEVERABILITY. This EULA is the entire  
agreement between you and Samsung Electronics Co. relating to the  
Software and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous oral or  
written communications, proposals and representations with respect
