4A. Important Safety Information
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded
electronic operating systems 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.
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access
to Your Phone
Do Not Rely on Your Phone for Emergency Calls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee
connection in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon
any mobile phone for essential communication (e.g., medical
emergencies). Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular networks
or when certain network services or mobile phone features are in use.
Check with your local service provider for details.
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.
Always turn off the phone in healthcare facilities, and request
permission before using the phone near medical equipment.
Note
Using Your Phone While Driving
Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying
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.
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.
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.
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a
blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating two-way radios should
be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to
set off explosives.
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.
4A. Important Safety Information
91
Turn your phone off when you’re in any area that has a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone and accessories could generate
sparks. Sparks can cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or
even death. These areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. They
include:
Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid
Device
A number of wireless phones have been tested for hearing aid device
compatibility. When some wireless phones are used with certain hearing
devices (including hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a
noise which can interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing device.
Ⅲ Fueling areas such as gas stations.
Ⅲ Below deck on boats.
Ⅲ Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
Ⅲ Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain,
dust, or metal powders.
Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference
noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference noise they may
generate. ANSI standard C63.19 was developed to provide a standardized
means of measuring both wireless phones and hearing devices to
determine usability rating categories for both.
Ⅲ Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle’s engine.
Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids, or
explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your
phone or accessories.
Note
Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist hearing device
users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing device. Not all
phones have been rated for compatibility with hearing devices. Phones that
have been rated have a label located on the box. Your Samsung
PLS-m240 has an M4 and T4 rating.
Restricting Children’s Access to Your Phone
Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as they could
hurt themselves and others, damage the phone, or make calls that increase
your bill.
These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s
hearing device and individual type and degree of hearing loss. If a hearing
device is particularly vulnerable to interference noise; even a phone with a
higher rating may still cause unacceptable noise levels in the hearing
device. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to
evaluate it for your personal needs.
Warning Regarding Display
The display on your handset is made of glass or acrylic and could break if
your handset is dropped or if it receives significant impact. Do not use if
screen is broken or cracked as this could cause injury to you.
92
4A. Important Safety Information
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements for hearing
aid compatibility and are likely to generate less interference to hearing
devices than unrated phones. (M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.)
Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience
With Your Phone
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.)
To further minimize interference:
ⅷ Set the phone’s display and keypad backlight settings to ensure the
minimum time interval:
1. Press
> Settings > Display > Backlight.
Hearing aid devices may also be measured for immunity to interference
noise from wireless phones and should have ratings similar to phones. Ask
your hearing healthcare professional for the rating of your hearing aid. Add
the rating of your hearing aid and your phone to determine probable
usability:
2. Highlight the minimum time interval setting and press
ⅷ Position the phone so the internal antenna is farthest from your hearing
aid.
.
ⅷ Move the phone around to find the point with least interference.
ⅷ Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers excellent use.
ⅷ Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
ⅷ Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable.
HAC/Wi-Fi Language
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of
the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there may be some newer
wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been tested yet for
use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different features of this
phone thoroughly and in different locations, using your hearing aid or
cochlear implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Consult
your service provider about its return and exchange policies and for
information on hearing aid compatibility.
Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will have a
combined rating of six for “excellent use.” This is synonymous for T ratings.
t is further suggested you experiment with multiple phones (even those not
labeled M3/T3 or M4/T4) while in the store to find the one that works best
with your hearing aid device. Should you experience interference or find the
quality of service unsatisfactory after purchasing your phone, promptly
return it to the store where purchased for exchange or refund. More

ⅷ It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable
performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs
replacing.
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 watt to 0.2 watt 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
94
4A. Important Safety Information
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.
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.
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).
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.
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a
handset on your body, use an approved carrying case, holster or other
body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the
antenna is at least 7/16 inch (1.5 centimeters) from your body when
transmitting. Use of non-approved accessories may violate FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
The highest reported SAR values of the PLS-m240 are:
Cellular CDMA mode (Part 22):
Head: 0.867 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.894 W/kg
PCS mode (Part 24):
Head: 0.683 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.539 W/kg
For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC Web site at
FCC Radio Frequency Emission
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless
Phones
This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines.
FCC ID number: A3LSPHM240.
The SAR value corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed
into the head of a user of a wireless handset.
More information on the phone’s SAR can be found from the following FCC
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
