Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications
technology capable of exchanging information over
a distance of about 10 m without requiring a physical
connection.
You do not need to line up the devices to beam
information with Bluetooth. If the devices are within range
of one another, you can exchange information between
them even if they are located in different rooms.

If you still cannot use the FM radio after performing these
steps, try accessing your desired station with another radio
receiver. If you can hear the station with another receiver,
your device may require service. Contact a Samsung
Service Centre.
• Ensure that the music file is not Digital Rights

service centre.
Do not use damaged power cords or plugs, or loose
electrical sockets
Handle and dispose of batteries and chargers with care
•
Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers specifically
designed for your device. Incompatible batteries and chargers can
cause serious injuries or damage to your device.
Do not touch the power cord with wet hands, or disconnect
the charger by pulling on the cord
•
•
Never dispose of batteries or devices in a fire. Follow all local
regulations when disposing of used batteries or devices.
Never place batteries or devices on or in heating devices, such as
microwave ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode when
overheated.
Never crush or puncture the battery. Avoid exposing the battery to
high external pressure, which can lead to an internal short circuit and
overheating.

Protect the device, batteries, and chargers from damage
Do not use your device near a pacemaker
•
•
•
Avoid exposing your device and batteries to very cold or very hot
temperatures.
•
•
•
Avoid using your device within a 15 cm range of a pacemaker if
possible, as your device can interfere with the pacemaker.
If you must use your device, keep at least 15 cm away from the
pacemaker.
To minimise the possible interference with a pacemaker, use your
device on the opposite side of your body from the pacemaker.
Extreme temperatures can cause the deformation of the device and
reduce the charging capacity and life of your device and batteries.
Prevent batteries from contacting metal objects, as this can create a
connection between the + and – terminals of your batteries and lead to
temporary or permanent battery damage.
Do not use your device in a hospital or near medical
equipment that can be interfered with by radio frequency
•
Never use a damaged charger or battery.
If you personally use any medical equipment, contact the manufacturer
of the equipment to ensure the safety of your equipment from radio
frequency.

•
•
Do not use your device at refuelling points (service stations), near fuels
or chemicals, and at blasting areas.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in
the same compartment as the device, its parts, or accessories.
•
•
Get to know your device and its convenience features, such as speed
dial and redial. These features help you reduce the time needed to
place or receive calls on your mobile device.
Position your device within easy reach. Be able to access your wireless
device without removing your eyes from the road. If you receive an
incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your voice mail answer it
for you.
Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving. Suspend
calls in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow,
ice, and heavy traffic can be hazardous.
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers. Jotting down a“to do”
list or flipping through your address book takes attention away from
your primary responsibility of driving safely.
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic. 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, dial only a few numbers, check
the road and your mirrors, then continue.
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.
Turn off your device when in an aircraft
Using your device in an aircraft is illegal. Your device may interfere with
the electronic navigation instruments of the aircraft.

•
Use your device to call for help. Dial a local emergency number in the
case of fire, traffic accident, or medical emergencies.
•
Use a hands-free device.
Safety precautions
133
•
•
Use your device to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto
accident, a crime in progress, or a serious emergency where lives are in
danger, call a local emergency number.
Call roadside assistance or a special, non-emergency 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 another special, non-emergency number.
Do not store your device on slopes
If your device falls, it can be damaged.
Do not store your device in hot or cold areas. Use your
device at -20 °C to 50 °C

damage to the eyes.
When speaking on the device:
•
•
•
Hold the device upright, as you would with a traditional phone.
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.
Avoid contact with your device’s internal antenna. Touching the
antenna may reduce the call quality or cause the device to transmit
more radio frequency than necessary.
Ensure maximum battery and charger life
•
Avoid charging batteries for more than a week, as overcharging may
shorten battery life.
•
Hold the device with a relaxed grip, press the keys lightly, use special
features that reduce the number of keys you have to press (such as
templates and predictive text), and take frequent breaks.
•
Over time, unused batteries will discharge and must be recharged
before use.
Safety precautions
135
•
Do not disassemble or puncture the battery, as this can cause
explosion or fire.
Protect your hearing
•
•
•
Excessive exposure to loud sounds can cause hearing
damage.
Do not paint or put stickers on your device
Exposure to loud sounds while driving may distract your
attention and cause an accident.
Always turn the volume down before plugging the
earphones into an audio source and use only the
minimum volume setting necessary to hear your
conversation or music.
Paint and stickers can clog moving parts and prevent proper operation.
If you are allergic to paint or metal parts of the product, you may
