batteries and chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for further details.  
You can use the phone while the battery is charging, but doing so will require  
additional charging time.

Section 4: Entering Text  
Topics Covered  
Using ABC Mode  
This section outlines how to select the desired text input mode when entering  
characters into your phone. This section also describes how to use the T9 predictive  
text entry system to reduce the number of key strokes associated with entering text.

Changing the Text Input Mode  
Changing the Text Input Mode  
When using your phone, you will often need to enter text, such as when storing a  
name in your Phonebook, creating your personal greeting or scheduling events on  
your calendar. You can enter alphanumeric characters by using your phone’s keypad.  
Your phone has the following text input modes:  
T9 mode: this mode allows you to enter words with only one keystroke per letter.  
Each key on the keypad has more than one letter; for example, pressing  
can  
enter J, K, or L. However, the T9® mode automatically compares the series of  
keystrokes you make with an internal linguistic dictionary to determine the most  
likely word, thus requiring far fewer keystrokes than the traditional ABC mode.  
Number mode: this mode allows you to enter numbers.  
Symbol mode: this mode allows you to enter symbols, such as punctuation  
marks.  
ABC mode: this mode allows you to enter letters by pressing the key labeled with  
the letter you want.  
When you are in a field that allows characters to be entered, you will notice the text  
input mode indicator on the bottom right of the display.  
Example: Writing a text message.  
1. To change the text input mode, press the Right soft key (  
).  
2. Each time you press the Right soft key, a different Text input mode  
indicator is displayed at the lower right corner of your display.

Using T9 Mode  
T9 is a predictive text input mode that allows you to key in any character using  
single keystrokes. This text input mode is based on a built-in dictionary.  
To enter a word in T9 mode:  
1. When you are in T9 mode, start entering a word by pressing the 2 to 9  
keys. Press each key only once for each letter.  
Example: To enter “Hello” in T9 mode, press the 4, 3, 5, 5, and 6 keys.  
The word that you are typing appears on the display. It may change with  
each consecutive key that you press.  
2. Enter the whole word before editing or deleting the keystrokes.  
3. When the word is correctly displayed, go to step 4.  
If the word doesn’t display correctly, press the  
key to display  
alternative word choices for the keys that you have pressed.  
Example: Both the words “Of” and “Me” have the 6 and 3 keys. The phone displays the most commonly  
used choice first.  
4. Insert a space by pressing the  
key and start entering the next word.  
To add a new word into the T9 dictionary:  
1. After pressing the keys corresponding to the word you want to add, press  
the key to display the alternative words.

Health and Safety Information  
Health and Safety Information  
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals  
Certification Information (SAR)  
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 exposure limits are derived from the recommendations of two expert  
organizations, the National Counsel 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.  
The 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 exposure 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 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.  
Health and Safety Information 104  
 
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 exposure 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 handset 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 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: 1.24 W/Kg.  
Body-worn: .85 W/Kg.  
SAR information on this and other model phones can be viewed on-line at  
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea. 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 product specific SAR information  
can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/cgb/sar.  
UL Certified Travel Adapter  
The Travel Adaptor for this phone has met UL 1310 safety requirements. Please

Consumer Information on Wireless Phones  
Consumer Information on Wireless Phones  
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published a series of Questions  
and Answers for consumers relating to radio frequency (RF) exposure from wireless  
phones. The FDA publication includes the following information:  
What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?  
The term wireless phone refers here to hand-held wireless phones with built-in  
antennas, often called "cell," "mobile," or "PCS" phones. These types of wireless  
phones can expose the user to measurable radio frequency energy (RF) because of  
the short distance between the phone and the user's head. These RF exposures are  
limited by Federal Communications Commission safety guidelines that were  
developed with the advice of FDA and other federal health and safety agencies.  
When the phone is located at greater distances from the user, the exposure to RF is  
drastically lower because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly with increasing  
distance from the source. The so-called "cordless phones," which have a base unit  
connected to the telephone wiring in a house, typically operate at far lower power  
levels, and thus produce RF exposures well within the FCC's compliance limits.  
Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?  
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are  
associated with using wireless phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless  
phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of radio frequency  
energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low levels  
of RF when in the stand-by mode. Whereas high 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. Many studies of low level RF  
exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that  
some biological effects may occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by  
additional research. In some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in  
reproducing those studies, or in determining the reasons for inconsistent results.  
Health and Safety Information 106  
 
What is FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless  
phones?  
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting consumer  
products such as wireless phones before they can be sold, as it does with new drugs  
or medical devices. However, the agency has authority to take action if wireless  
phones are shown to emit radio frequency energy (RF) at a level that is hazardous to  
the user. In such a case, FDA could require the manufacturers of wireless phones to  
notify users of the health hazard and to repair, replace or recall the phones so that  
the hazard no longer exists.  
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions, FDA has  
urged the wireless phone industry to take a number of steps, including the following:  
Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type emitted  
by wireless phones;  
Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that  
is not necessary for device function; and  
Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best possible information  
on possible effects of wireless phone use on human health.  
FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that have  
responsibility for different aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the  
federal level. The following agencies belong to this working group:  
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health  
Environmental Protection Agency  
Federal Communications Commission  
Occupational Safety and Health Administration  
National Telecommunications and Information Administration  
The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency working group  
activities, as well.  
FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with the Federal  
Communications Commission (FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States  
must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF exposure. FCC relies on FDA  
and other health agencies for safety questions about wireless phones.  
FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networks rely upon.  
While these base stations operate at higher power than do the wireless phones  
themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these base stations are typically  
thousands of times lower than those they can get from wireless phones. Base  
107  
Consumer Information on Wireless Phones  
stations are thus not the primary subject of the safety questions discussed in this  
document.  
What are the results of the research done already?  
The research done thus far has produced conflicting results, and many studies have  
suffered from flaws in their research methods. Animal experiments investigating the  
effects of radio frequency energy (RF) exposures characteristic of wireless phones  
have yielded conflicting results that often cannot be repeated in other laboratories. A  
few animal studies, however, have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate  
the development of cancer in laboratory animals. However, many of the studies that  
showed increased tumor development used animals that had been genetically  
engineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to  
develop cancer in absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the animals to RF  
for up to 22 hours per day. These conditions are not similar to the conditions under  
which people use wireless phones, so we don't know with certainty what the results  
of such studies mean for human health.  
Three large epidemiology studies have been published since December 2000.  
Between them, the studies investigated any possible association between the use of  
wireless phones and primary brain cancer, glioma, meningioma, or acoustic  
neuroma, tumors of the brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of  
the studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful health effects from wireless  
phones RF exposures. However, none of the studies can answer questions about  
long-term exposures, since the average period of phone use in these studies was  
around three years.  
What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure  
from wireless phones poses a health risk?  
A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually  
using wireless phones would provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetime  
animal exposure studies could be completed in a few years. However, very large  
numbers of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer promoting  
effect if one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide data that is directly  
applicable to human populations, but ten or more years' follow-up may be needed to  
provide answers about some health effects, such as cancer. This is because the  
interval between the time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the time  
tumors develop - if they do - may be many, many years. The interpretation of  
epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in measuring actual RF exposure  
Health and Safety Information 108  
during day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many factors affect this measurement,  
such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which model of phone is used.  
What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible  
health effects of wireless phone RF?  
FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology Program and with groups of  
investigators around the world to ensure that high priority animal studies are  
conducted to address important questions about the effects of exposure to radio  
frequency energy (RF).  
FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organization international  
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its inception in 1996. An influential result  
of this work has been the development of a detailed agenda of research needs that  
has driven the establishment of new research programs around the world. The  
Project has also helped develop a series of public information documents on EMF  
issues.  
FDA and Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) have a formal  
Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) to do research on  
wireless phone safety. FDA provides the scientific oversight, obtaining input from  
experts in government, industry, and academic organizations. CTIA-funded research  
is conducted through contracts to independent investigators. The initial research will  
include both laboratory studies and studies of wireless phone users. The CRADA will  
also include a broad assessment of additional research needs in the context of the  
latest research developments around the world.  
What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to radio  
frequency energy from my wireless phone?  
If there is a risk from these products - 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 exposure to radio frequency  
energy (RF). Since time is a key factor in how much exposure a person receives,  
reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless phone will reduce RF exposure.  
If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless phone every day, you  
could place more distance between your body and the source of the RF, since the  
exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, you could use a  
headset and carry the wireless phone away from your body or use a wireless  
phone connected to a remote antenna.  
109  
Consumer Information on Wireless Phones  
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that wireless phones are harmful. But if  
you are concerned about the RF exposure from these products, you can use  
measures like those described above to reduce your RF exposure from wireless  
phone use.  
What about children using wireless phones?  
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones,  
including children and teenagers. If you want to take steps to lower exposure to  
radio frequency energy (RF), the measures described above would apply to children  
and teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing the time of wireless phone use and  
increasing the distance between the user and the RF source will reduce RF  
exposure.  
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children  
be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For example, the government in  
the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation in  
December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists that using a wireless phone  
causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless  
phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific  
evidence that any health hazard exists.  
Do hands-free kits for wireless phones reduce  
risks from exposure to RF emissions?  
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from wireless  
phones, there is no reason to believe that hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free  
kits can be used with wireless phones for convenience and comfort. These systems  
reduce the absorption of RF energy in the head because the phone, which is the  
source of the RF emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand, if  
the phone is mounted against the waist or other part of the body during use, then  
that part of the body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless phones marketed in the  
U.S. are required to meet safety requirements regardless of whether they are used  
against the head or against the body. Either configuration should result in  
compliance with the safety limit.  
Health and Safety Information 110  
Do wireless phone accessories that claim to shield  
the head from RF radiation work?  
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from wireless  
phones, there is no reason to believe that accessories that 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 "hand-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. In  
February 2002, the Federal trade Commission (FTC) charged two companies that  
sold devices that claimed to protect wireless phone users from radiation with  
making false and unsubstantiated claims. According to FTC, these defendants  
lacked a reasonable basis to substantiate their claim.  
What about wireless phone interference with  
medical equipment?  
Radio frequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can interact with some electronic  
devices. For this reason, FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure  
electromagnetic interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers and  
defibrillators from wireless telephones. This test method is now part of a standard  
sponsored by the Association for the Advancement of Medical instrumentation  
(AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by FDA, medical device manufacturers, and  
many other groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will allow  
manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from  
wireless phone EMI. FDA has tested wireless phones and helped develop a voluntary  
standard sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This  
standard specifies test methods and performance requirements for hearing aids and  
wireless phones so that no interference occurs when a person uses a compatible  
phone and a compatible hearing aid at the same time. This standard was approved  
by the IEEE in 2000.  
FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for possible interactions with  
other medical devices. Should harmful interference be found to occur, FDA will  
conduct testing to assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.

Road Safety  
Additional information on the safety of RF exposures from various sources can be  
obtained from the following organizations (Updated 12/1/2006):  
FCC RF Safety Program:  
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA):  
Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA):

Road Safety  
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to communicate by voice, almost  
anywhere, anytime. But an important responsibility accompanies the benefits of  
wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.  
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. When using your wireless  
phone behind the wheel of a car, practice good common sense and remember the  
following tips:  
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features, such as speed dial and  
redial. If available, these features help you to place your call without taking  
your attention off the road.  
2. When available, use a hands-free device. If possible, add an additional  
layer of convenience and safety to your wireless phone with one of the  
many hands free accessories available today.  
3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Be able to access your  
wireless phone without removing your eyes from the road. If you get an  
incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your voice mail answer it for you.  
Health and Safety Information 112  
 
4. Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary,  
suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain,  
sleet, snow, ice and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.  
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting down a  
"to do" list or flipping through your address book takes attention away  
from your primary responsibility, driving safely.  
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, 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 while moving, dial only a few  
numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.  
7. 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.  
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9-1-1 or other local  
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical  
emergencies. Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phone!  
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto  
accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in  
danger, call 9-1-1 or other local emergency number, as you would want  
others to do for you.  
10. Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless 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 other special non-emergency number.

Operating Environment  
Operating Environment  
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always switch  
your phone off whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference  
or danger. When connecting the phone or any accessory to another device, read its  
user's guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.  
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for the  
satisfactory operation of the equipment and  
for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that the equipment should only be  
used in the normal operating position (held to your ear with the antenna pointing  
over your shoulder if you are using an external antenna).  
Using Your Phone 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 phone. Consult the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.  
Pacemakers  
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches)  
be maintained between a wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential  
interference with the pacemaker.  
These recommendations are consistent with the independent research and  
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.  
Persons with pacemakers:  
should always keep the phone more than 15 cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker  
when the phone is switched on.  
should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.  
should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize potential interference.  
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch your  
phone off immediately.  
Hearing Aid Compatibility with Mobile Phones  
When some mobile phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and  
cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some  
hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones  
also vary in the amount of interference they generate.  
Health and Safety Information 114  
   
The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their mobile  
phones, to assist hearing device users in finding phones that may be compatible  
with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated  
have the rating on their box or a label 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 phone successfully. Trying out the  
phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal  
needs.  
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to  
generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is  
the better/higher of the two ratings.  
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more  
usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than  
unrated phones. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing  
devices have telecoils in them.)  
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of interference.  
Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find  
results for your hearing device. The more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely  
you are to experience interference noise from mobile phones.  
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 phone  
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. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment  
that has been added to your vehicle.  
115  
Potentially Explosive Environments  
Posted Facilities  
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted notices require you to do so.  
Potentially Explosive Environments  
Switch your phone 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 phone 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 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.  
Emergency Calls  
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless and  
landline networks as well as user-programmed functions, which cannot guarantee  
connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely on any wireless  
phone for essential communications (medical emergencies, for example).  
Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone must be switched on and in a  
service area with adequate signal strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on  
all wireless phone networks or when certain network services and/or phone features  
are in use. Check with local service providers.  
To make an emergency call:  
1. If the phone 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 the  
key.  
If certain features are in use (call barring, for example), you may first need to  
deactivate those features before you can make an emergency call. Consult this  
document and your local cellular service provider.  
Health and Safety Information 116  
   
When making an emergency call, remember to give all the necessary information as  
accurately as possible. Remember that your phone 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.  
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 or make calls that increase  
your phone bill.  
FCC Notice and Cautions  
FCC Notice  
The phone may cause TV or radio interference if used in close proximity to receiving  
equipment. The FCC can require you to stop using the phone 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, One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA  
02269, Attn: Publication Sales Division.  
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.  
Other Important Safety Information  
Only qualified personnel should service the phone or install the phone in a vehicle.  
Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty  
applicable to the device.  
Check regularly that all wireless phone equipment in your vehicle is mounted and  
operating properly.  
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in the same  
compartment as the phone, its parts or accessories.  
117  
   
Product Performance  
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag inflates with great  
force. Do not place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment  
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 phone off before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless phone in  
aircraft is illegal and may be dangerous to the aircraft's operation.  
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or denial of  
telephone services to the offender, or legal action, or both.  
Product Performance  
Getting the Most Out of Your Signal Reception  
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.  
Maintaining Your Phone's Peak Performance  
For the best care of your phone, only authorized personnel should service your  
phone and accessories. Faulty service may void the warranty.  
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and  
maintaining safe, satisfactory service.  
If your phone is equipped with an external antenna, hold the phone with the  
antenna raised, fully-extended and over your shoulder.  
Health and Safety Information 118  
 
Do not hold, bend or twist the phone's antenna, if applicable.  
Do not use the phone if the antenna is damaged.  
If your phone is equipped with an internal antenna, obstructing the internal  
antenna could inhibit call performance.  
Speak directly into the phone's receiver.  
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 is  
inoperable, call Customer Care for service.  
Availability of Various Features/Ring Tones  
Many services and features are network dependent and may require additional  
subscription and/or usage charges. Not all features are available for purchase or use  
in all areas. Downloadable Ring Tones may be available at an additional cost. Other  
conditions and restrictions may apply. See your service provider for additional  
information.  
Battery Standby and Talk Time  
Standby and talk times will vary depending on phone usage patterns and conditions.  
Battery power consumption depends on factors such as network configuration,  
signal strength, operating temperature, features selected, frequency of calls, and  
voice, data, and other application usage patterns.  
Battery Precautions  
Avoid dropping the cell phone. Dropping it, 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.  
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.  
If you use the phone near the network's base station, it uses less power; talk and  
standby time are greatly affected by the signal strength on the cellular network  
and the parameters set by the network operator.  
Follow battery usage, storage and charging guidelines found in the user’s guide.  
Battery charging time depends on the remaining battery charge and the type of  
battery and charger used. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of  
times, but it will gradually wear out. When the operation time (talk time and  
standby time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.  
If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.  
119  
     
Battery Precautions  
Use only Samsung-approved batteries and recharge your battery only with  
Samsung-approved chargers. When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the  
power source. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for more than a  
week, since overcharging may shorten its life.  
Do not use incompatible cell phone batteries and chargers. Some Web sites 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.  
Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity of your battery: it may  
require cooling or warming first.  
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a car in summer or winter  
conditions, as you will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to  
keep the battery at room temperature. A phone with a hot or cold battery may  
temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are  
particularly affected by temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).  
Do not place the phone in areas that may get very hot, such as on or near a  
cooking surface, cooking appliance, iron, or radiator.  
Do not get your phone or battery wet. Even though they will dry and appear to  
operate normally, the circuitry could slowly corrode and pose a safety hazard.  
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a  
metallic object (coin, 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 permit a battery out of the phone to come in contact with metal objects,  
such as coins, keys or jewelry.  
Do not crush, puncture or put a high degree of pressure on the battery as this can  
cause an internal short-circuit, resulting in overheating.  
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. In some areas, the  
disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited. For safe  
disposal options for Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest Samsung authorized  
service center. Always recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.  
Health and Safety Information 120  
Care and Maintenance  
Your phone 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 the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small children.  
Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain minerals that will  
corrode electronic circuits.  
Do not use the phone with a wet hand. Doing so may cause an electric shock to  
you or damage to the phone.  
Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas, as its moving parts may be  
damaged.  
Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of  
electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.  
Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone warms up to its normal  
operating temperature, moisture can form inside the phone, which may damage  
the phone's electronic circuit boards.  
Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough handling can break internal circuit  
boards.  
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong detergents to clean the  
phone. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water  
solution.  
Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device's moving parts and prevent  
proper operation.  
Do not put the phone in or on heating devices, such as a microwave oven, a stove  
or a radiator. The phone may explode when overheated.  
If your phone is equipped with an external antenna, use only the supplied or an  
approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas or modified accessories  
may damage the phone and violate regulations governing radio devices.  
If the phone, battery, charger or any accessory is not working properly, take it to  
your nearest qualified service facility. The personnel there will assist you, and if  
necessary, arrange for service.
