Health and Safety Information 2

Section 1: Health and Safety Information

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, No Service

and an Antenna icon display 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)

t669.book Page 2 Thursday, March 31, 2011 3:30 PM

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.

• 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.

t669.book Page 3 Thursday, March 31, 2011 3:30 PM

Health and Safety Information 4

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.

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

t669.book Page 4 Thursday, March 31, 2011 3:30 PM

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:

t669.book Page 5 Thursday, March 31, 2011 3:30 PM

Health and Safety Information 6

• Fueling areas such as gas stations.

• Below deck on boats.

• Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.

• 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.

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.

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.
