TTY Use With Handset

A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone), is a telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or have speech or language disabilities to communicate by telephone.

Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices. Please check with the manufacturer of your TTY device to ensure that it supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY device will connect via a special cable that plugs into your phone's headset jack. If this cable was not provided with your TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase the connector cable.

To turn TTY Mode on or off:

1. Press Menu.

2. Select Settings > More....

3. Select Accessibility.

4. Select TTY Options. (A brief explanation of TTY will display.)

5. Press again to continue.

6. Press the navigation key up or down to select TTY Off or TTY On and press to save and exit. When TTY is on, connect to your headset.

Note: In TTY Mode when your headset is plugged in, your phone will display the

TTY access icon. If TTY mode is enabled, the headset cannot be used.

IMPORTANT 911 Emergency Calling: We recommend that TTY users make emergency calls by other means, including Telecommunications Relay Services

(TRS), analog cellular, and land line communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted when received by public safety answering points (PSAPs) rendering some communications unintelligible. The problem encountered appears related to TTY equipment or software used by PSAPs. This matter has been brought to the attention of the FCC, and the wireless industry and PSAP community are currently working to resolve it.

Safety

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, a message displays 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) 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 a hybrid standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation Protection and

Measurements (NCRP).

88 Safety


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.

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.

Safety 89


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 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, 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.

90 Safety


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:

•

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 its 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.

•

In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32º F to 113º F (0º C to 45º C).

Safety 91


•

Do not use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.

•

Never dispose of the battery by incineration.

•

Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.

•

Do not attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.

•

The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time.

•

It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. When used correctly, the battery can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.

•

Do not store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time.

It’s best to follow these storage rules:

•

Less than one month:

-4º F to 140º F (-20º C to 60º C)

•

More than one month:

-4º F to 113º F (-20º C to 45º C)

Disposal of Lithium Ion (LiIon) Batteries

For safe disposal options of your LiIon batteries, contact your nearest service center.

Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.

Note: For safety, do not handle a damaged or leaking LiIon battery.

Acknowledging Special Precautions and Industry Canada Notice

Cautions

Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly approved in this document could void your warranty for this equipment, and void your authority to operate this equipment. Only use approved batteries, antennas, and chargers. The use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the phone.

Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on it.

92 Safety


Information to User

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation; if this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

•

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

•

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Warning: At very high volumes, prolonged listening to a headset can damage your hearing.

Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones

The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.

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 settings. However, 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.

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.

Safety 93


The highest reported SAR values of the SCH-r100 are:

CDMA mode (Part 22)

Head: 1.00 W/kg Body Worn: 0.56 W/kg

PCS mode (Part 24)

Head: 1.00 W/kg Body Worn: 0.44 W/kg
