session, then you will automatically be re-connected to
the Internet.

Roaming
Roaming on other digital networks
When you’re roaming on other digital networks, call quality
and security are similar to the quality you receive while on
your home network. However, you may be unable to access
certain features, such as Wireless Web.
Roaming on analog networks
While roaming on analog networks, some calling features,
such as Wireless Web, may be unavailable, you can still
make and receive calls. With analog service, you may
experience a few differences including:
•
You’re more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-
out and dropped calls.
•
Some calling features which are standard on your home
Network, such as Call Waiting, Wireless Web and direct
international dialing, are unavailable.
•
•
There are security and privacy risks, such as
eavesdropping and cloning, that exist with conventional
analog services today.
Analog mode consumes more power than digital,
therefore your battery drains faster (and needs
recharging sooner) when used in analog networks.
Note: If you’re on a call when you leave your home network
and enter an area where roaming is available
(whether digital or analog), your call is dropped. If
your call is dropped in an area where you think the
service is available, turn your phone off and on again
to reconnect to your home network.

Usage guidelines:
all about performance and safety
Understanding Signal Strength
The quality of each call you make or receive, is dependent
upon the signal strength in your area. Your phone informs you
of the current signal strength by displaying a icon. The more
bars displayed, the stronger the signal. The signal strength
indicator ( ) displays in the upper left corner of your display
screen. The voice quality of your phone is always clearest
when the antenna is fully raised. If you’re inside a building,
reception may be better near a window.
Understanding the Power Save Mode
If you are trying to use your phone in an area where the
signal is too weak, the Power Save feature automatically
activates to conserve battery power when you have been
unable to pick up a signal for 15 minutes. If your phone is on,
it periodically rechecks service availability. To manually
check, press any key. A message is displayed on the screen
any time you activate Power Save. 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 is turned on, it receives and transmits radio
frequency (RF) signals. When your phone is in use, the
system handling your call controls the power level. This
power can range from 0.6 watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.
Specifications are Subject to Change
The information contained in this manual is believed to be
correct at the time of printing, however, Samsung reserves
87
n400bmc version 2.book Page 88 Wednesday, May 14, 2003 3:30 PM
the right to change or modify any of the specifications without
notice or obligation to update existing units.
Exposure To Radio Frequency Signals
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power
radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and
also transmits radio frequency
(RF) signals
In August, 1996. the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) adopted RF exposer guidelines with safety levels for
hand-held wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent
with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies:
•
•
•
ANSI C95.1 (1992)
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic
evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For example,
over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from
universities, government health agencies, and industry
reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI
standard (C95.1).
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines
(and those standards).
Body-worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if
you wear a handset on your body, use a Samsung supplied or
approved carrying case, holster or other body-worn
accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure
the antenna is at least one inch (2.5 centimeters) from your
88
n400bmc version 2.book Page 89 Wednesday, May 14, 2003 3:30 PM
body when transmitting. Use of non-Samsung approved
accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.
Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other
telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your
shoulder.
Tips on Efficient Operation
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
•
•
Extend your antenna fully.
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone
is in use. Contact with the antenna affects call quality
and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power
level than otherwise needed.
Operating a Motor Vehicle
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless
telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them.
Also, if using your phone while driving, please:
•
Give full attention to driving - driving safely is your
first responsibility.
•
Use hands free operation, if available.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be
shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
89
n400bmc version 2.book Page 90 Wednesday, May 14, 2003 3:30 PM
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends
that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches be maintained
between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to
avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology
Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
•
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches
from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON;
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize
the potential for interference;
•
•
•
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician
may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn 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
90
n400bmc version 2.book Page 91 Wednesday, May 14, 2003 3:30 PM
should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that
you add to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone Off in any facility where posted notices
so require.
Aircraft
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air.
Switch Off your phone before boarding an aircraft.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone
Off when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-
way radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your phone Off when in any area with a potential
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.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but
not always clearly marked. They include fueling areas such
as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical
transfers 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; any other area where you would normally be
advised to turn Off your vehicle engine.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air bag
An air bag inflates with tremendous force. DO NOT place
objects, including both installed or portable wireless
equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag
91
n400bmc version 2.book Page 92 Wednesday, May 14, 2003 3:30 PM
deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury
could result.
Storing your phone
You must not store or carry your phone, its parts, or
accessories in the same compartment or other area where
there flammable liquids, gases, or explosive or flammable
materials.
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
will invalidate 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
hardware and can be broken. Use common-sense guidelines
to avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on it.
92
n400bmc version 2.book Page 93 Wednesday, May 14, 2003 3:30 PM
Your Phone as a Network Device
Your telephone requires a service provider to send and
receive calls. Your phone is only one part of a system or
“network” of devices that makes it possible for you to send
and receive calls, text messages, voice message, access the
Internet using the browser, and to take advantage of all of the
other services and features available when your phone is
used with your service provider.
Your phone will always try your call using your home system,
but if this is unavailable, then the phone will use the preferred
roaming system.
If you cannot roam, your call will not be connected and the
icon is displayed. In some service areas, an operator may
come on the line asking you how you would like to pay for
the call.
To make all of the features available to you, your phone is
designed by Samsung and your service provider to allow your
service provider to send (at any time) a variety or information
and messages to your phone. You may think of this as an
over the air service to your phone. During an over-the-air
programming session, your phone may display the
following messages:
•
“Search... Download” - this message means the phone is
looking for the data to download.
•
“Progress Download” - this message means the phone is
downloading data. Do not turn your phone off while this
is occurring. See the CAUTION below.
•
“Download Success” - this message means that your
phone has been successfully reprogrammed. You can
now continue to use your phone as you normally do.
93
n400bmc version 2.book Page 94 Wednesday, May 14, 2003 3:30 PM
•
“Download Failed” - if this message appears contact your
service provider.
CAUTION: If you turn off your phone during a download, your
phone (or some features) may not work properly in the
network. If this happens don’t worry, contact your service
provider for help in correcting the problem.

n400bmc version 2.book Page 95 Wednesday, May 14, 2003 3:30 PM
