safety and usage information  

Comply with the following precautions to avoid dangerous or illegal situations and ensure peak performance of your mobile phone.

Safety warnings

Keep your phone away from small children and pets

Keep your phone and all accessories out of the reach of 

small children or animals. Small parts may cause choking or 

serious injury if swallowed.

Protect your hearing

Listening to a headset at high volumes can 

damage your hearing. Use only the minimum 

volume setting necessary to hear your 

conversation or music.

Install mobile phones and equipment with caution

Ensure that any mobile phones or related equipment installed 

in your vehicle are securely mounted. Avoid placing your 

phone and accessories near or in an air bag deployment 

area. Improperly installed wireless equipment can cause 

serious injury when air bags infl ate rapidly.

Safety precautions

Drive safely at all times

Avoid using your phone while driving and obey all regulations 

that restrict the use of mobile phones while driving. Use 

hands-free accessories to increase your safety when 

possible.

Follow all safety warnings and regulations

Comply with any regulations that restrict the use of a mobile 

phone in a certain area.

Use only Samsung-approved accessories

Using incompatible accessories may damage your phone or 

cause injury.

Turn off the phone near medical equipment

Your phone can interfere with medical equipment in hospitals 

or health care facilities. Follow all regulations, posted 

warnings, and directions from medical personnel.

Turn off the phone or disable the wireless functions 

when in an aircraft

Your phone can cause interference with aircraft equipment. 

Follow all airline regulations and turn off your phone or switch 

to a mode that disables the wireless functions when directed 

by airline personnel.

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.

Store the battery pack in a dry place.

• 

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 allow your phone to get wet—liquids can cause 

• 

serious damage. 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.

Your phone may be damaged by exposure to magnetic 

• 

fi elds. Do not use carrying cases or accessories with 

magnetic closures or allow your phone to come in contact 

with magnetic fi elds 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.

Allow only qualifi ed personnel to service your phone

Allowing unqualifi ed 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.

• 

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 fi re in and around fuel or chemical 

storage and transfer areas or blasting areas. Do not store or 

carry fl ammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the 

same compartment as the phone, its parts, or accessories.

Reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries

When sending text messages or playing games on your 

phone, hold the phone with a relaxed grip, press the buttons 

lightly, use special features that reduce the number of buttons 

you have to press (such as templates and predictive text), 

and take frequent breaks.

Handle and dispose of batteries and chargers with care

Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers 

• 

specifi cally designed for your phone. 

Incompatible batteries and chargers can cause serious 

injuries or damage to your phone. 

Never dispose of batteries or phone in a fi re. Follow all local 

• 

regulations when disposing used batteries or phone. 

Never place batteries or phones on or in heating devices, 

• 

such as microwave ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries 

may explode when overheated.

Never crush or puncture the battery. Avoid exposing the 

• 

battery to high external pressure, which can lead to an 

internal short circuit and overheating.

Avoid interference with pacemakers

Maintain a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between mobile 

phones and pacemakers to avoid potential interference, 

as recommended by manufacturers and the independent 

research group, Wireless Technology Research. 
If you have any reason to suspect that your phone is 

interfering with a pacemaker or other medical device, turn off 

the phone immediately and contact the manufacturer of the 

pacemaker or medical device for guidance.

Handle SIM 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.

Do not touch gold-coloured contacts or terminals with your 

• 

fi ngers 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.

SAR information

Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It 

is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission 

limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by 

the European Union (EU) Council. These limits are part of 

comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels 

of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines 

are based on the safety standards that were developed by 

independent scientifi c organisations through periodic and 

thorough evaluation of scientifi c studies.
The standards include a substantial safety margin designed 

to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and 

health.
The exposure standard for wireless phones employs a unit 

of measurement known as Specifi c Absorption Rate (SAR). 

The SAR limit set by the EU Council is 2.0 W/kg. The highest 

SAR value for this model phone was 0.520 W/kg.
