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 this.

Understanding Roaming

Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the network. The following chart indicates what you’ll see depending on where you’re using your phone.

Roaming Indicator Analog Indicator

Network

Other Digital Networks

Note : You will pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.

Roaming on Other Digital Networks

When you’re roaming, your call quality and security will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls on your home network. You may not be able to access certain features, such as web services.

Roaming on Analog Networks

When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a similar quality provided by other analog carriers today. Although some features, such as Mobile Browser and Voice Command, will be unavailable, you can still make and receive calls and access voicemail.

You will experience a few differences:

You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out, and dropped calls.

Roaming 32

Some features which are standard on the network, such as call waiting, web browser, and direct international dialing, are unavailable.

Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are roaming, you will not receive notification until you return to the network. While roaming, you can periodically check your voicemail for new messages by dialing 1+area code+your

Phone Number. Press when you hear your greeting and enter your passcode at the prompt.

There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning) that exist with conventional analog services today.

Your battery needs recharging sooner when you use your phone in analog mode, whether in network or roaming.

Note : If you’re on a call when you leave the network and enter an area where roaming is available, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think service is available, turn your phone Off and On again to reconnect to the network.

Setting Your Phone’s System

Your phone allows you to control your ability to roam. By using the

Roaming menu option, you can determine which signals your phone accepts. Choose from three different settings on your phone to control your roaming experience:

1. Press the left softkey for Menu.

5. To select an option, highlight it and press .

33 Roaming

Automatic: This setting seeks service. When service is unavailable, the phone searches for an alternate system.

Home Only: This setting allows you to access the home network only and prevents roaming on other networks.

Digital Only: This setting allows you to access digital service only, preventing access on analog networks.

Analog: This setting allows you to access analog service only, preventing access on digital networks.

AMPS Home: This setting allows you to use your carrier’s analog service only, preventing access on digital or other analog networks.

Set NAM

Using Voice Dial

Voice Dial allows you to dial any valid 7, 10 or 11 digit North

American phone number by speaking the number naturally, without pausing between the digits. It also allows you to dial by pronouncing a name stored in your Contacts.

Tips for using Voice Dial:

Voice Dial works best in quieter environments.

When saying a number, speak at a normal speed and say each digit clearly. There is no need to pause between digits.

The phone recognizes the digits one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, zero, and oh. The phone does not recognize numbers such as "one eight hundred" for "1-800." Instead, say

"one-eight-zero-zero."

The phone recognizes only valid 7, 10 or 11 digit North

American phone numbers.

If your phone does not usually recognize you correctly when you are using Voice Dial, try adapting Voice Dial to your voice, which can significantly improve accuracy for some speakers.

(See "Changing Voice Dial Sensitivity" on page 91 for details.)

To place a call using Voice Dial:

1. Activate voice recognition by pressing and holding .

(The phone prompts you for a command.)

2. Say Voice Dial. (The phone prompts you to say the number or Contact name.)

6. Alternatively, you can call a person in your Contacts by saying the full name of the person you want to call, exactly as it is entered in your Contacts. (The phone plays the name through the earpiece and displays it on the screen.)

If you said a name listed in your Contacts that has more than one number associated with it, the phone displays the different locations (Home, Work, Mobile, Pager, Fax) and asks you which one to dial. Say one of the location names and the phone will dial the number for the location you specified.

Note : In some cases, the phone might ask you to repeat a name or number. Make sure that the number is a valid 7, 10 or 11 digit North

American phone number, and then say the number again. If the number isn't valid, or if the phone still doesn't understand the number on the second try, it will not place a call.

Customizing Voice Dial

Adapting Voice Dial

Voice Dialing is speaker independent, which means that no initial training or adaptation is required. Some users with heavy accents or unusual voice characteristics may encounter difficulty in achieving high accuracy with speaker independent Voice Dialing. The Adapt

Digits feature allows users to dramatically improve the digit accuracy through adaptation. Users who get acceptable digit recognition accuracy will gain no additional benefit performing the Adapt Digit adaptation.

After you adapt Voice Dial, your phone will be customized to your voice. Other people may not be able to use Voice Dial on your phone accurately unless they reset the phone to factory defaults.

Note : ONLY adapt Voice Dial if the system is frequently misrecognizing your speech. You can always restore the system to its original factory setting.

Adaptation involves recording several digit sequences to teach the system your voice. The adaptation process takes about 3 minutes.

Tips for adapting Voice Dial:

Perform the adaptation in a quiet place.

Make sure you wait for the beep before starting to speak.

Speak clearly, but say each digit sequence naturally.

If you make a mistake while recording a sequence of digits, or if there is an unexpected noise that spoils the recording, you can say or select No when the prompt asks, “Did the recording sound OK?” You will then be prompted to re-record the sequence.

To adapt Voice Dial to your voice:

1. Press the left softkey for Menu, followed by for

Settings.

digit sequence.)

6. When you are ready to start recording, press . (The phone prompts you to say the first sequence of digits.)

7. Wait for the beep, and then repeat the digits using a normal tone of voice. (The phone plays back your recording and asks you if the recording sounds "OK.")

If the recording sounds OK (no mistakes and no background noises), say Yes.

If you need to re-record the digits to fix any problems, say

No. (The phone then prompts you to say the digits again.)

8. After confirming that the recording sounds OK, repeat the recording process with the next set of digits. In total, there are 10 sets of numbers. When you are finished with a full session, you will reach a screen that reads, “Adaptation

Complete.”

Voice Services 90

Note : It is recommended that you perform the complete adaptation of

Voice Dial at least once to achieve the maximum benefit of this feature. If a partial adaptation is performed, you can always return later and resume the process from the half way point.

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

Safety 128

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.

Hold the phone with the antenna raised, fully-extended, and over your shoulder.

Try not to hold, bend, or twist the phone’s antenna.

Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged.

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 BMC 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.

129 Safety

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.

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.

Safety 130

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, 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,

131 Safety

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 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.

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.

Safety 132

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

Don’t 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.

Don’t 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.

Don’t 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

BMC 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.

133 Safety

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.

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:

Reorient / relocate the receiving antenna.

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.

Safety 134

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. But 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.

The highest reported SAR values of the SPH-a740 are:

AMPS mode (Part 22) - Head: 1.28 W/kg; Body-worn: 1.25 W/kg

Digital mode (Part 24) - Head: 1.05 W/kg; Body-worn: 1.04 W/kg
