Care and Safety Guidelines
203
For a variety of safety reasons, it is important to consider
where you will be using your phone. When using your phone
and its accessories, please follow these guidelines:
Compliance with Safety Standards
The Samsung Smartphone meets all standards and
recommendations for the protection of the public from exposure
to radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy established by
governmental bodies and other qualified organizations. To
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious personal injury, or
property damage, please follow these guidelines.
Driving
Using the Smartphone while driving is illegal in some states
and countries. Know the laws and regulations for your area,
and pull off the road and park if you need to make a call. If you
must use the phone while driving, purchase and install the
optional Hands-Free Car Kit.
Electronic Devices
Your phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When the
power is on, the phone receives and sends out RF energy. Most
modern electronic equipment, such as equipment in hospitals
and cars, contains an RF signal shield. RF energy may affect
some inadequately shielded electronic equipment.
Turn off your phone in health care facilities, and always request
permission before using the phone near medical equipment.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such
as pacemakers and hearing aids, to determine if they are
shielded adequately from external RF signals.
Note if there are any regulations posted in the area regarding
the operation of phones, and learn where you can use them
safely within the facility.
