Removing the Battery  
1. Place your finger into the battery groove (1).  
Note: The phone requires approximately 4 hours to  
achieve a full charge.  
2. Grip the battery at the top end (2) and lift it up  
and out of the battery compartment (3).  
Installing the Battery  
Charging the Battery  
1. Slide the battery into the compartment (1) so  
that the tabs on the end align with the slots at  
the bottom of the phone, making sure the  
connectors align.  
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion  
battery. A wall charger, which is used for charging  
the battery, is included with your phone. Use only  
approved batteries and chargers. Ask your local  
Samsung dealer for further details.  
2. Gently press down to secure the battery (2).  
Before using your phone for the first time, you must  
fully charge the battery. A discharged battery  
recharges fully in approximately 4 hours.  
Installing Battery  
Verify that the battery is installed prior to connecting  
the wall charger. If both the wall charger is  
connected and the battery is not installed, the  
handset will power cycle continuously and prevent  
proper operation. Failure to unplug the wall charger  
before you remove the battery, can cause the phone  
to become damaged.  
Important! Although the battery comes partially  
charged, it is recommended you fully  
charge the battery before using it for the  
first time.  
1. Slide open the Charger/Accessory jack cover.  
2. Insert the USB cable into the device’s  
Charger/Accessory jack.  
Removing Battery

3. Plug the charger into a standard AC power  
outlet. The device turns on with the screen  
locked and indicates both its charge state and  
percent of charge.  
Important! If your handset has a touch screen display,  
please note that a touch screen responds  
best to a light touch from the pad of your  
finger or a non-metallic stylus. Using  
excessive force or a metallic object when  
pressing on the touch screen may  
damage the tempered glass surface and  
void the warranty. For more information,  
Low Battery Indicator  
When the battery level is low and only a few  
minutes of talk time remain, a warning tone sounds  
and the “Low battery” message repeats at regular  
intervals on the display. In this condition, your phone  
conserves its remaining battery power, by dimming  
the backlight.  
Correct  
Incorrect  
When the battery level becomes too low, the phone  
automatically turns off.  
Note: This illustration displays both the correct and  
incorrect orientation for connecting the  
charger. If the charger is incorrectly connected,  
damage to the accessory port will occur  
therefore voiding the phone’s warranty.  
Extending Your Battery Life  
Active applications, light levels, Bluetooth usage,  
and GPS functionality all act to drain your battery.  
The following is a list of helpful tips that can help  
conserve your battery power:  
Use the Power Control shortcut bar.  
Reduce your backlight on time.  
Turn Bluetooth off when not in use.  
Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use.  
4. When charging is finished, first unplug the  
charger’s power plug from the AC wall outlet,  
then disconnect the charger’s connector from  
the phone.

Marking a Contact as Default  
When you use applications such as the Voice Dialer  
or other messaging type applications, the  
application needs to know which information is  
primary (default) in a contact entry list. For example,  
when you say “Call John Smith”, if you have three  
phone records for John Smith, the Voice dialer is  
looking for the “default” number or entry.  
For example: If Amy (original entry) is  
joined with Julie (second entry). Julie  
appears to disappear and only Amy  
remains. Tap the Amy entry (showing the  
Julie image) to view both.

Mobile AP  
This feature allows you to turn your phone into a  
Wi-Fi hotspot. The feature works best when used in  
conjunction with 3G data services.  
Note: Using your 3G service and Mobile AP Hotspot  
drains your phone’s battery at a much faster  
rate than when using any other feature  
combination.  
The best way to keep using the phone as a  
hotspot is to have it connected to a power  
supply.  
Important! The Mobile AP service can not be active at  
the same time as Wi-Fi. Please close your  
Wi-Fi connection prior to launching the  
Mobile AP service.  
To connect to the Hotspot:  
1. Enable Wi-Fi (wireless) functionality on your  
target device (laptop, media device, etc.).  
2. Scan for Wi-Fi networks from the device and  
select your phone hotspot from the network  
list.

Section 13: Health and Safety Information

heating effects causes no known adverse health  
effects.  
before using your mobile device  
.
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:  
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.  
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 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

because there is relatively little blood flow in them

conclusions being drawn from this data. Additional

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.  
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.  
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 http://  
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.  
.
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.

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

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.  
Additional information about SEER can be found at

.
Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance  
between your head and the cell phone.  
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:  
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.  
Support-needed research on possible biological  
effects of RF for the type of signal emitted by cell  
phones;  
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.  
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  
Health and Safety Information  
157  
 
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.  
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.  
Cell Phone Accessories that Claim to Shield the  
Head from RF 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.  
Additional information on the safety of RF exposures  
from various sources can be obtained from the  
following organizations (updated 10/1/2010):  
FCC RF Safety Program:  
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.

(NIOSH):  
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.

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.  
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.  
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 1.0 cm from the  
body.  
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

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 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.  
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.  
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in  
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.

.
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.  
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.  
Important! Use only Samsung-approved batteries,  
and recharge your battery only with  
Samsung-approved chargers which are  
specifically designed for your phone.

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.  
GPS & AGPS  
Certain Samsung mobile devices can use a Global  
Positioning System (GPS) signal for location-based  
applications. A GPS uses satellites controlled by the  
U.S. Government that are subject to changes  
implemented in accordance with the Department of  
Defense policy and the 2008 Federal Radio  
navigation Plan (FRP). Changes may affect the  
performance of location-based technology on your  
mobile device.  
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.  
Certain Samsung mobile devices can also use an  
Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS), which  
obtains information from the cellular network to  
improve GPS performance. AGPS uses your wireless  
service provider's network and therefore airtime,  
data charges, and/or additional charges may apply  
in accordance with your service plan. Contact your  
wireless service provider for details.  
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

Other Medical 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.  
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.  
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;  
Posted Facilities  
Should turn the mobile device OFF immediately if there  
is any reason to suspect that interference is taking  
place;  
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).  
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  
169  
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.  
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 user's 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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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  
170  
   
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.  
M3  
+
M2  
=
5
T3  
+
T2  
=
5
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.  
The HAC rating and measurement procedure are  
described in the American National Standards  
Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.  
HAC/Wi-Fi for Newer Technologies  
However, these are not guarantees that all users will  
be satisfied. T ratings work similarly.  
This phone has been tested and rated for use with  
hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies  
that it uses. However, there may be some newer  
wireless technologies used in this phone that have  
not been tested yet for use with hearing aids.  
It is important to try the different features of this  
phone thoroughly and in different locations, using  
your hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if  
you hear any interfering noise. Consult your service  
provider or the manufacturer of this phone for  
information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have  
questions about return or exchange policies, consult  
your service provider or phone retailer.  
Health and Safety Information  
171  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Keep the mobile device and all its parts and  
accessories out of the reach of small children.  
FCC Notice and Cautions  
Ensure that any mobile devices or related equipment  
installed in your vehicle are securely mounted.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or  
explosive materials in the same compartment as the  
mobile device, its parts, or accessories.  
172  
           
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.  
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.  
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.  
If your device has a camera flash or light, do not use the  
flash or light close to the eyes of people or pets.  
[122011]  
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.
