Radio frequency exposure information
In August 1996, the Federal Communications
Commisision (FCC) of the U.S. adopted an updated
safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated
transmitters. The design of this phone complies with the
FCC guidelines and those standards.
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines, if you wear a handset on your body, use the
Samsung-supplied or approved carrying case, holster, or
other body-worn accessory.
If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the
antenna is at least one inch (2.0cm) from your body
when transmitting. Use of non-approved accessories
may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Use sensibly
Use only in the normal position (to ear). Avoid unnessary
contact with the antenna when the phone is switched
on.
Accessories and batteries
Use only SAMSUNG-approved accessories and
batteries.
Use qualified service
Only qualified service personnel may install or repair
your phone.

You can easily tell if your battery needs to be recharged

of all three bars indicates a full charge, two bars
indicates a smaller charge, and one bar indicates an
even smaller charge. No bars (the battery icon is empty)
means your battery must be charged.
