This section outlines the safety precautions
associated with using your phone. The
terms “mobile device” or “cell phone” are
used in this section to refer to your phone.
Read this information before using your
mobile device.
This device is capable of operating in Wi-Fi™
mode in the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands. The FCC
requires that devices operating within 5.15-
5.25 GHz may only be used indoors, not
outside, in order to avoid interference with
Mobile Satellite Services (MSS). Therefore,
this device is restricted from being used
outdoors when operating in frequencies
between 5.15-5.25 GHz.
Speciic Absorption Rate (SAR)
Certiication Information
Your wireless device is a radio transmitter
and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the exposure
limits for Radio Frequency (RF) energy
set by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government.
These FCC RF exposure limits are derived
from the recommendations of two expert
organizations: the National Council on
Radiation Protection and Measurement
(NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases,
the recommendations were developed by
scientiic and engineering experts drawn
from industry, government, and academia
after extensive reviews of the scientiic
literature related to the biological effects of
RF energy.

8 Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information
The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for
wireless mobile phones employs a unit
of measurement known as the Speciic
Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is a
measure of the rate of absorption of RF
energy by the human body expressed in
units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC
requires wireless phones to comply
with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per
kilogram (1.6 W/kg).
The FCC SAR limit incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection to the public and
to account for any variations
in measurements.
SAR tests are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted by the FCC
with the phone transmitting at its highest
certiied power level in all tested frequency
bands. Although the SAR is determined at
the highest certiied power level, the actual
SAR level of the phone while operating can
be well below the maximum reported value.
This is because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels so as to
use only the power required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a
wireless base station antenna, the lower the
power output of the device.
Before a new model device is available for
sale to the public, it must be tested and
certiied to the FCC that it does not exceed
the SAR limit established by the FCC. Tests
for each model phone are performed in
positions and locations (e.g. at the ear and
worn on the body) as required by the FCC.
For body-worn operation, this device has
been tested and meets FCC RF exposure
guidelines when used with an accessory
that contains no metal and that positions
the mobile device a minimum of 1.5 cm
from the body. Use of other accessories

8 Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information 9
may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines. The FCC has granted
an Equipment Authorization for this
mobile device with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
The maximum SAR values for this model
phone as reported to the FCC are:
Simultaneous Transmission Head:
1.25 W/Kg
Simultaneous Transmission Body-worn:
1.30 W/Kg
The SAR information for this device can also
be found on Samsung’s website:
www.samsung.com/sar.
SAR information on this and other mobile
devices can be accessed online on the
FCC’s website through http://transition.
fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/sar.html. To ind
information that pertains to a particular
model, this site uses the device FCC
ID number which is usually printed
somewhere on the case of the device.
Sometimes it may be necessary to remove
the battery pack to ind the number. Once
you have the FCC ID number for a particular
device, follow the instructions on the
website and it should provide values for
typical or maximum SAR for a particular
phone. Additional SAR information can also
be obtained at
www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/speciic-
absorption-rate-sar-cellular-telephones.

10 Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information

interference by one or more of the
following measures:
• Reorient or 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.
Commercial Mobile Alerting
System (CMAS)
This device is also designed to receive
CMAS alerts, known as Personal Localized
Alerting Network (“PLAN”) alerts. If your
wireless provider has chosen to participate
in CMAS/PLAN, alerts may be available
while in the provider’s coverage area.
If you travel outside your provider’s
coverage area, alerts may not be available.
For more information, please contact your
wireless provider.

12 Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information 13
GPS & AGPS
Certain Samsung mobile devices can use a
Global Positioning System (GPS) signal for
location-based applications. A GPS uses
satellites controlled by the U.S. Government
that are subject to changes implemented
in accordance with the Department of
Defense policy and the 2008 Federal
Radio navigation Plan (FRP). Changes may
affect the performance of location-based
technology on your mobile device.
Certain Samsung mobile devices can
also use an Assisted Global Positioning
System (AGPS), which obtains information
from the cellular network to improve GPS
performance. AGPS uses your wireless
service provider’s network and therefore
airtime, data charges, and/or additional
charges may apply in accordance with your
service plan. Contact your wireless service
provider for details.
Your Location
Location-based information includes
information that can be used to determine
the approximate location of a mobile
device. Mobile devices which are
connected to a wireless network transmit
location-based information. Additionally, if
you use applications that require location-
based information (e.g. driving directions),
such applications transmit location-
based information. The location-based
information may be shared with third-
parties, including your wireless service
provider, applications providers, Samsung,
and other third-parties providing services.

12 Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information 13
Use of AGPS in Emergency Calls
When you make an emergency call,
the cellular network may activate AGPS
technology in your mobile device to tell
the emergency responders your
approximate location.
AGPS has limitations and might not work in
your area. Therefore:
• Always tell the emergency responder
your location to the best of your
ability; and
• Remain on the mobile device for as
long as the emergency responder
instructs you.
Navigation
Maps, directions, and other navigation-
data, including data relating to your
current location, may contain inaccurate
or incomplete data, and circumstances
can and do change over time. In some
areas, complete information may not be
available. Therefore, you should always
visually conirm that the navigational
instructions are consistent with what
you see before following them. All users
should pay attention to road conditions,
closures, trafic, and all other factors that
may impact safe driving or walking. Always
obey posted road signs.

14 Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information
Emergency Calls
This mobile device, like any wireless mobile
device, operates using radio signals,
wireless and landline networks, as well as
user-programmed functions, which cannot
guarantee connection in all conditions,
areas, or circumstances.
Therefore, you should never rely solely on
any wireless mobile device for essential
communications (medical emergencies,
for example). Before traveling in remote or
underdeveloped areas, plan an alternate
method of contacting emergency services
personnel. Remember, to make or receive
any calls, the mobile device must be
switched on and in a service area with
adequate signal strength.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all
wireless mobile device networks or when
certain network services and/or mobile
device features are in use. Check with local
service providers. If certain features are in
use (call blocking, for example), you may
irst need to deactivate those features
before you can make an emergency
call. Consult your User Manual and your
local cellular service provider. When
making an emergency call, remember
to give all the necessary information as
accurately as possible. Remember that
your mobile device may be the only means
of communication at the scene of an
accident; do not cut off the call until given
permission to do so.

14 Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information 15
To make an emergency call:
1. If the mobile device is not on, switch
it on.
2. Open your phone dialer.
3. Enter the emergency number for your
present location (for example, 911 or
other oicial emergency number),
then tap Call/Send. Emergency
numbers vary by location.
FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
Regulations for Wireless Devices
The U.S. Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) has established
requirements for digital wireless mobile
devices to be compatible with hearing aids
and other assistive hearing devices.
When individuals employing some assistive
hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear
implants) use wireless mobile devices,
they may detect a buzzing, humming,
or whining noise. Some hearing devices
are more immune than others to this
interference noise, and mobile devices also
vary in the amount of interference
they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has
developed a rating system for wireless
mobile devices to assist hearing device
users ind mobile devices that may be

16 Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information
compatible with their hearing devices. Not
all mobile devices have been rated. Mobile
devices that are rated have the rating on
their box or a label located on the box.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results
will vary depending on the user’s hearing
device and hearing loss. If your hearing
device happens to be vulnerable to
interference, you may not be able to use a
rated mobile device successfully. Trying
out the mobile device with your hearing
device is the best way to evaluate it for your
personal needs.
M-Ratings: Wireless mobile devices rated
M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and
are likely to generate less interference to
hearing devices than mobile devices that
are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of
the two ratings. M-ratings refer to enabling
acoustic coupling with hearing aids that do
not operate in telecoil mode.
T-Ratings: Mobile devices rated T3 or T4
meet FCC requirements and are likely
to generate less interference to hearing
devices than mobile devices that are not
labeled. T4 is the better/higher of the two
ratings. T-ratings refer to enabling inductive
coupling with hearing aids operating in
telecoil mode.

16 Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information 17
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your
hearing aid manufacturer or hearing health
professional may help you ind this rating.
Higher ratings mean that the hearing
device is relatively immune to
interference noise.
Under the current industry standard,
American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) C63.19, the hearing aid and wireless
mobile device rating values are added
together to indicate how usable they are
together. For example, if a hearing aid
meets the M2 level rating and the wireless
mobile device meets the M3 level rating,
the sum of the two values equals M5.
Under the standard, this should provide
the hearing aid user with normal use while
using the hearing aid with the particular
wireless mobile device. A sum of 6 or more
would indicate excellent performance.
However, these are not guarantees that
all users will be satisied. T ratings
work similarly.
M3 + M2 =
5
T3 + T2 = 5

18 Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information
The HAC rating and measurement
procedure are described in the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI)
C63.19 standard.
HAC for Newer Technologies
This phone has been tested and rated
for use with hearing aids for some of the
wireless technologies that it uses. However,
there may be some newer wireless
technologies used in this phone that
have not been tested yet for use with
hearing aids.
It is important to try the different features
of this phone thoroughly and in different
locations, using your hearing aid or
cochlear implant, to determine if you
hear any interfering noise. Consult your
service provider or the manufacturer of
this phone for information on hearing
aid compatibility.
If you have questions about return or
exchange policies, consult your service
provider or phone retailer.
