Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger  
Battery Capacity  
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery. It allows you to recharge  
your battery before it is fully drained.  
When the battery runs low, the battery icon will blink to remind you to recharge the  
battery. When the battery capacity is close to completely drained, the phone  
sounds an audible alert and then powers down.  
Note: Long backlight settings, low signal strength, searching for service, vibrate  
mode, playing games, or browser use affect the battery’s talk and standby times.  
Tip: Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the battery  
before it runs out of power.

Using a microSD Memory Card in Your Phone  
Your phone is capable of supporting a memory storage media known as a  
microSDTM memory card. This card is the newest standard of flash memory  
specifically designed for use with ultra-small mobile phones and other devices. It is  
ideal for storing media-rich files such as music, videos, and photographs in your  
phone.  
The maximum storage size for this media card is 8 GB.  
Note: Compatibility with all high capacity microSDTM memory cards is not  
guaranteed.  
Installing the microSDTM Memory Card  
Your phone has a memory card slot on the lower left side. You can install a  
microSDTM card to provide additional memory for storing files (such as sound files  
and photos) in your phone.  
To install the card:  
1. Locate the memory slot on the left side of the phone and pull out and  
turn the plastic cover.

TTY Use With Handset  
A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone), is a telecommunications device  
that allows people who are deaf or hard of hearing, or who have speech or  
language disabilities, to communicate by telephone.  
19 Phone Basics  
       
Your phone is compatible with selected TTY devices. Please check with the  
manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure that it supports digital wireless  
transmission. Your phone and TTY device will connect via a special cable that  
plugs into your phone's headset jack. If this cable was not provided with your TTY  
device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase the connector cable.  
Note: Not all service providers support TTY. Consult your service provider for  
more information.  
To turn TTY Mode on or off:  
1. Activate the main menu, highlight the Settings menu, and press  
2. Select More....  
.
3. Select Accessibility.  
4. Select TTY Options. (A brief explanation of TTY will display.)

again to continue.  
Note: In TTY Mode when your headset is plugged in, your phone will display the  
TTY access icon. If TTY mode is enabled, the headset cannot be used.  
IMPORTANT 911 Emergency Calling: We recommend that TTY users make  
emergency calls by other means, including Telecommunications Relay Services  
(TRS), analog cellular, and land line communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911  
may be corrupted when received by public safety answering points (PSAPs)  
rendering some communications unintelligible. The problem encountered appears  
related to TTY equipment or software used by PSAPs. The wireless industry and  
PSAP community are currently working to resolve this.

Safety  
Getting the Most Out of Your Reception  
Keeping Tabs on Signal Strength  
The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the signal strength in your  
area. Your phone informs you of the current signal strength by displaying a  
number of bars next to the signal strength icon. The more bars displayed, the  
stronger the signal. If you’re inside a building, being near a window may give you  
better reception.  
Understanding the Power Save Feature  
If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching, a Power Save  
feature is automatically activated. If your phone is active, it periodically rechecks  
service availability or you can check it yourself by pressing any key. Anytime the  
Power Save feature is activated, a message displays on the screen. When a signal  
is found, your phone returns to standby mode.  
Understanding How Your Phone Operates  
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned on, it  
receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the  
system handling your call controls the power level. This power can range from  
0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.  
Knowing Radio Frequency Safety  
The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP standards described  
below. In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and  
the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI’s 1982  
standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF signals. More than  
120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government health  
agencies and industries developed this updated standard after reviewing the  
available body of research. In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission  
(FCC) adopted this updated standard in a regulation. In August 1996, the FCC  
adopted hybrid standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the  
guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation Protection and  
Measurements (NCRP).  
Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak Performance  
There are several simple guidelines for operating your phone properly and  
maintaining safe, satisfactory service.  
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.  
Safety 108  
   
Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your  
phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove the battery.  
If it’s inoperable, return it to a dealer store or call Customer Support for  
service.  
Note: For the best care of your phone, only authorized personnel should service  
your phone and accessories. Faulty service may void the warranty.  
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phone  
Failure to follow the instructions outlined may lead to serious personal injury and  
possible property damage.  
Using Your Phone While Driving  
Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without a hands-free  
device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to specific restrictions.  
Remember that safety always comes first.  
When using your phone in the car:  
Get to know your phone and its features, such as speed dial and re-dial.  
When available, use a hands-free device.  
Position your phone within easy reach.  
Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if necessary,  
suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions.  
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.  
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when stationary  
or before pulling into traffic.  
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may divert your  
attention from the road.  
Dial 911 to report serious emergencies. It’s free from your wireless phone.  
Use your phone to help others in emergencies.  
Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless number when  
necessary.  
Following Safety Guidelines  
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special regulations  
in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may  
cause interference or danger.  
109 Safety  
 
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices  
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals.  
However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately shielded  
electronic equipment.  
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic  
operating systems and/or entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the  
manufacturer or their representative to determine if these systems are adequately  
shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the manufacturer regarding any  
equipment that has been added to your vehicle.  
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers  
and hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF  
signals.  
Note: Always turn off the phone in health care facilities and request permission  
before using the phone near medical equipment.  
Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying  
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible interference  
with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations  
require you to have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the  
plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit  
using your phone while the plane is in the air.  
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas  
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn off your phone when in a  
blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating that two-way radios should be  
turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off  
explosives.  
Turn off your phone when you are in an area with a potentially explosive  
atmosphere. Although it is rare, your phone or its accessories could  
generate sparks. Sparks could cause an explosion or a fire resulting in  
bodily injury or even death. These areas are often, but not always,  
clearly marked. These areas include:  
Fueling areas such as gas stations.  
Below deck on boats.  
Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.  
Safety 110  
Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or  
metal powders.  
Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your  
vehicle’s engine.  
Note: Never transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the  
compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.  
Restricting Children’s Access to your Phone  
Your phone is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with it because they  
could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone, dial 911 by mistake or make  
calls that increase your phone bill.  
Caring for the Battery  
Protecting Your Battery  
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s  
performance.  
Use only Samsung approved batteries and desktop chargers. These  
chargers are designed to maximize battery life. Using other batteries or  
chargers voids your warranty and may cause damage.  
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that  
range from 32º F to 113º F (0º C to 45º C).  
Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas,  
such as the bathroom.  
Never dispose of the battery by incineration.  
Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.  
Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.  
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of  
time.  
It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable  
performance. When used correctly, the battery can be recharged hundreds  
of times before it needs replacing.  
111 Safety  
 
Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time.  
It’s best to follow these storage rules:  
Less than one month:  
-4º F to 140º F (-20º C to 60º C)  
More than one month:  
-4º F to 113º F (-20º C to 45º C)  
Disposal of Lithium Ion (LiIon) Batteries  
For safe disposal options of your LiIon batteries, contact your nearest service  
center.  
Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas, the  
disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.  
Note: For safety, do not handle a damaged or leaking LiIon battery.  
Acknowledging Special Precautions and  
Industry Canada Notice  
Cautions  
Any changes or modifications to your phone 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 phone  
warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the phone.  
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be  
broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending or sitting on it.  
Information to User  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of a Class B  
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to  
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential  
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency  
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may  
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no  
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation; if this  
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which  
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to  
try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:  
Reorient / relocate the receiving antenna.  
Safety 112  
 
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to  
which the receiver is connected.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.  
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones  
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed  
in the head of a user of a wireless handset.  
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and  
calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone  
models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in  
operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than the level reported to  
the FCC. This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base  
station antenna, phone design and other factors. What is important to remember is  
that each phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not  
represent a variation in safety.  
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial  
margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values between different  
model phones do not mean variations in safety. SAR values at or below the federal  
standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for use by the public.  
The highest reported SAR values of the SCH-r561 are:  
CDMA mode (Part 22) - Head: 0.733 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.933 W/kg  
PCS mode (Part 24) - Head: 1.15 W/kg; Body-worn: 1.05 W/kg
