• Never place batteries or phones on or in heating
devices, such as microwave ovens, stoves, or
radiators. Batteries may explode when
overheated.
Install mobile phones and equipment
with caution
Ensure that any mobile phones or related equipment
installed in your vehicle are securely mounted. Avoid
placing your phone and accessories near or in an air
bag deployment area. Improperly installed wireless
equipment can cause serious injury when air bags
inflate rapidly.
• Never crush or puncture the battery. Avoid
exposing the battery to high external pressure,
which can lead to an internal short circuit and
overheating.

Handle and dispose of batteries and
chargers with care
• Use only Samsung-approved batteries and
chargers specifically designed for your phone.
Incompatible batteries and chargers can cause
serious injuries or damage to your phone.
Maintain a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between
mobile phones and pacemakers to avoid potential
interference, as recommended by manufacturers
and the independent research group, Wireless
Technology Research. If you have any reason to
suspect that your phone is interfering with a
pacemaker or other medical device, turn off the
phone immediately and contact the manufacturer of
the pacemaker or medical device for guidance.
• Never dispose of batteries or phones in a fire.
Follow all local regulations when disposing used
batteries or phones.

Turn off the phone in potentially
explosive environments
Safety precautions
Do not use your phone at refuelling points (service
stations) or near fuels or chemicals. Turn off your
phone whenever directed by warning signs or
instructions. Your phone could cause explosions or
fire in and around fuel or chemical storage and
transfer areas or blasting areas. Do not store or carry
flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in
the same compartment as the phone, its parts, or
accessories.
Drive safely at all times
Avoid using your phone while driving and obey all
regulations that restrict the use of mobile phones
while driving. Use hands-free accessories to
increase your safety when possible.
Follow all safety warnings and

charging capacity and life of your batteries.
Turn off the phone near medical
equipment
Your phone can interfere with medical equipment in
hospitals or health care facilities. Follow all
regulations, posted warnings, and directions from
medical personnel.
• Prevent batteries from contacting metal objects,
as this can create a connection between the +

temporary or permanent battery damage.
• Never use a damaged charger or battery.
Turn off the phone or disable the
wireless functions when in an aircraft
Your phone can cause interference with aircraft
equipment. Follow all airline regulations and turn off
your phone or switch to a mode that disables the
wireless functions when directed by airline
personnel.
Handle your phone carefully and
sensibly
• Your phone has been tested in a controlled
environment and shown to be dust and
water resistant in certain circumstances
(meets requirements of classification IP57 as
described by the international standard IEC
60529 - Degrees of Protection provided by
Enclosures [IP Code]; test conditions:
15~35° C, 86~106kPa, 1meter, for
Protect batteries and chargers from
damage
• Avoid exposing batteries to very cold or very hot
temperatures (below 0° C/32° F or above 45° C/
30minutes). Despite this classification, your
phone is not impervious to water damage in
any situation.
5
• Improperly sealed covers, extended immersion in
water, and/or excessive pressure may cause
leaks and allow water to enter the phone. Do not
intensionally immerse the phone in water, allow
the phone to come in contact with water, or
expose it to humidity.
• Avoid using the phone’s camera flash or light
close to the eyes of children or animals.
• Your phone and memory cards may be damaged
by exposure to magnetic fields. Do not use
carrying cases or accessories with magnetic
closures or allow your phone to come in contact
with magnetic fields for extended periods of time.
• Improper sealing of covers, eccessive exposure
to dust and/or excessive pressure may cause
dust penetration. Do not expose to dust and/or
sand for extended periods of time.
Avoid interference with other electronic
devices
• Your phone is a complex electronic device.
Protect it from impact and rough handling to avoid
serious damage. Damage to the phone’s exterior
may reduce its protection against water damage.
Do not insert sharp objects into the speaker
holes, microphone holes, or receiver holes, as
this may puncture the protective surface and
allow water and dust to enter.
Your phone emits radio frequency (RF) signals that
may interfere with unshielded or improperly shielded
electronic equipment, such as pacemakers, hearing
aids, medical devices, and other electronic devices
in homes or vehicles. Consult the manufacturers of
your electronic devices to solve any interference
problems you experience.
• Do not paint your phone, as paint can clog
moving parts and prevent proper operation.

• Disconnect chargers from power sources when
not in use.
Important usage information
• Use batteries only for their intended purpose.
Use your phone in the normal position
Handle SIM cards and memory cards
with care
• Do not remove a card while the phone is
transferring or accessing information, as this
could result in loss of data and/or damage to the
card or phone.
Avoid contact with your phone’s internal antenna.
Allow only qualified personnel to service
your phone
Allowing unqualified personnel to service your phone
may result in damage to your phone and will void
your warranty.
• Protect cards from strong shocks, static
electricity, and electrical noise from other devices.
Ensure maximum battery and charger
life
• Frequent writing and erasing will shorten the life
span of memory cards.
• Avoid charging batteries for more than a week, as
overcharging may shorten battery life.
• Do not touch gold-coloured contacts or terminals
with your fingers or metal objects. If dirty, wipe the
card with a soft cloth.
• Over time, unused batteries will discharge and
must be recharged before use.

the actual SAR is likely to be much lower, as the
phone has been designed to emit only the RF
energy necessary to transmit a signal to the nearest
base station. By automatically emitting lower levels
when possible, your phone reduces your overall
exposure to RF energy.
Ensure access to emergency services
Emergency calls from your phone may not be
possible in some areas or circumstances. Before
travelling in remote or undeveloped areas, plan an
alternate method of contacting emergency services
personnel.
The Declaration of Conformity at the back of this
