Install mobile devices and equipment with caution

Ensure that any mobile devices or related equipment installed in your vehicle are securely mounted. Avoid placing your device and accessories near or in an air bag deployment area.

Improperly installed wireless equipment can cause serious injury when air bags inflate rapidly.

Handle and dispose of batteries and chargers with care

• Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers specifically designed for your device. Incompatible batteries and chargers can cause serious injuries or damage to your device.

Safety and usage information 133

•

•

•

Never dispose of batteries or devices in a fire. Follow all local regulations when disposing of used batteries or devices.

Never place batteries or devices 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 devices 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 device is interfering with a pacemaker or other medical device, turn off the device immediately and contact the manufacturer of the pacemaker or medical device for guidance.

Turn off the device in potentially explosive environments

Do not use your device at refueling points (service stations) or near fuels or chemicals. Turn off your device whenever directed by warning signs or instructions. Your device could cause explosions or fire in and around fuel or chemical storage, transfer areas and blasting areas. Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the same compartment as the device, its parts, or accessories.

Reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries

While using your device, hold the device 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.

134 Safety and usage information

Protect the device, batteries and chargers from damage

• Avoid exposing your device and batteries to very cold or very hot temperatures (below 0° C or above 45° C).


•

•

•

Extreme temperatures can cause the deformation of the device and reduce the charging capacity and life of your device and 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 device carefully and sensibly

•

•

•

Disassembling your device may cause an electric shock.

Do not allow your device to get wet—liquids can cause serious damage and will change the color of the label that indicates water damage inside the device. Do not handle your device with wet hands. Water damage to your device can void your manufacturer’s warranty.

Avoid using or storing your device in dusty, dirty areas to prevent damage to moving parts.

•

•

•

•

Your device is a complex electronic device—protect it from impacts and rough handling to avoid serious damage.

Do not paint your device, as paint can clog moving parts and prevent proper operation.

If your device has a camera flash or light, avoid using it close to the eyes of children or animals.

Your device may be damaged by exposure to magnetic fields. Do not use carrying cases or accessories with magnetic closures or allow your device to come in contact with magnetic fields for extended periods of time.

Avoid interference with other electronic devices

Your device 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 device in the normal position

Avoid contact with your device’s internal antenna.

Allow only qualified personnel to service your device

Allowing non-qualified personnel to service your device may result in damage to your device and will void your manufacturer’s 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 or memory cards with care

•

•

•

Do not remove a card while the device is transferring or accessing information, as this could result in loss of data and/ or damage to the card or device.

Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity, and electrical noise from other devices.

Do not touch gold-colored 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 device may not be possible in some areas or circumstances. Before traveling in remote or areas without signal coverage, plan an alternate method of contacting emergency services personnel.


Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification information

Your device 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 devices that exceed a maximum exposure level (known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 W/kg.

During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was 0.988 W/kg. In normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be much lower, as the device 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 device reduces your overall exposure to RF energy.

For more information about the SAR and related EU standards, visit the Samsung mobile device website.
