safety and usage information
Protect batteries and chargers from damage
Avoid exposing batteries to very cold or very hot
temperatures (below 0° C/32° F or above 45° C/
113° F). Extreme temperatures can reduce the
charging capacity and life of your batteries.
Prevent batteries from contacting metal objects, as this
can create a connection between the + and – terminals
of your batteries and lead to temporary or permanent
battery damage.
Never use a damaged charger or battery.
Handle your phone carefully and sensibly
Do not disassemble your phone due to a risk of electric
shock.
Do not allow your phone to get wet—liquids can cause
serious damage and will change the colour of the label
that indicates water damage inside the phone. Do not
handle your phone with wet hands. Water damage to
your phone can void your manufacturer's warranty.
Avoid using or storing your phone in dusty, dirty areas
to prevent damage to moving parts.
Your phone is a complex electronic device—protect
it from impacts and rough handling to avoid serious
damage.
Do not paint your phone, as paint can clog moving
parts and prevent proper operation.
If your phone has a camera flash or light, avoid using it
close to the eyes of children or animals.
Your phone may be damaged by exposure to magnetic
fields. Do not use carrying cases or accessories with
magnetic closures or allow your phone to come in
contact with magnetic fields for extended periods of
time.

Avoid interference with other electronic devices
Your phone emits radio frequency (RF) signals that
may interfere with unshielded or improperly shielded
electronic equipment, such as pacemakers, hearing
aids, medical devices, and other electronic devices in
homes or vehicles. Consult the manufacturers of your
electronic devices to solve any interference problems you
experience.
Important usage information
Use your phone in the normal position
Avoid contact with your phone's internal antenna.
Internal antenna
Allow only qualified personnel to service your
phone
Allowing unqualified personnel to service your phone
may result in damage to your phone and will void your
warranty.
Ensure maximum battery and charger life
Avoid charging batteries for more than a week, as
overcharging may shorten battery life.
Over time, unused batteries will discharge and must be
recharged before use.
Disconnect chargers from power sources when not in
use.
Use batteries only for their intended purpose.
Handle SIM cards and memory cards with care
Do not remove a card while the phone is transferring or
accessing information, as this could result in loss of data
and/or damage to the card or phone.
Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity, and
electrical noise from other devices.
Frequent writing and erasing will shorten the life span of
memory cards.
Do not touch gold-coloured contacts or terminals with
your fingers or metal objects. If dirty, wipe the card with
a soft cloth.
Ensure access to emergency services
Emergency calls from your phone may not be possible
in some areas or circumstances. Before travelling in
remote or undeveloped areas, plan an alternate method of
contacting emergency services personnel.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification
information
Your phone conforms to European Union (EU) standards
that limit human exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy
emitted by radio and telecommunications equipment.
These standards prevent the sale of mobile phones that
exceed a maximum exposure level (known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 watts per kilogram.
During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model
was 1.14 watts per kilogram. In normal use, the actual
SAR is likely to be much lower, as the phone has been
designed to emit only the RF energy necessary to transmit
a signal to the nearest base station. By automatically
emitting lower levels when possible, your phone reduces
your overall exposure to RF energy.
For more information about the SAR and related EU
standards, visit the Samsung mobile phone website.
Correct disposal of this product
(Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment)
(Applicable in the European Union and other
European countries with separate collection
systems)

should not be disposed of with other household waste at
the end of their working life. To prevent possible harm to
the environment or human health from uncontrolled waste
disposal, please separate these items from other types
of waste and recycle them responsibly to promote the
sustainable reuse of material resources.
Turn off the phone in potentially explosive
environments
Do not use your phone at refuelling points (service
stations) or near fuels or chemicals. Turn off your phone
whenever directed by warning signs or instructions. Your
phone could cause explosions or fire in and around fuel or
chemical storage and transfer areas or blasting areas. Do
not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive
materials in the same compartment as the phone, its
parts, or accessories.
Reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries
While using your phone, hold the phone with a relaxed
grip, press the keys lightly, use special features that
reduce the number of keys you have to press (such as
templates and predictive text), and take frequent breaks.
Do not use the phone if the screen is cracked or
broken
Broken glass or acrylic could cause injury to your hand
and face. Bring the phone to a Samsung service centre
to replace the screen. Damage caused by careless
handling will void your manufacturer’s warranty.
Comply with the following precautions to avoid dangerous or illegal situations and ensure peak performance of your mobile phone.
