but cannot be operated outdoors.
Maintaining water and dust
resistance
The device may be damaged if water or dust entersthe
device. Follow these tips carefully to prevent damage to
the device and to maintain the water- and dust-resistant
performance of the device.
•Do not immerse the device in water deeperthan 1 m and
keep it submerged for more than 30 minutes.
•Do not expose the device to water moving with force,
such as ocean waves or waterfalls.
•Do not openthe device's covers when the device isin
water or in very humid places, such as swimming pools
or bathrooms.
•Do not openthe back cover using wet hands or when the
device is wet.
•The rubber seal tted to the back cover is an important
component of the device. Take care when opening and
closing the back cover to avoid damaging the rubber seal.

Also, ensure that the rubber seal is free from debris, such
as sand or dust to prevent damage to the device.
•Do not expose the device to salt water, ionised water,
or soapy water.
•The back cover may be loosened if the device is
dropped or receives an impact. Ensure that the back
cover isproperly aligned and tightly closed.
•If the device has been immersed in water or the
microphone or the speaker is wet, soundmay notbe
heard clearly during a call. Ensure that the microphone or
the speaker is cleanand dry by wiping itwith a dry cloth.
•If the device gets wet, dry it thoroughly with a clean,
soft cloth.
•The water-resistant design of the device causes it to
vibrate slightlyin certain conditions. Vibrations in these
conditions, such aswhenthe volume level is high are
normaland do notaect the device’s performance.
•The touch screen and other features may not work
properly if the device is usedin water or in other
liquids.
Your device has been tested in a controlled
environment and certied to be water- and
dust-resistant in specic situations (meets
requirements of classication IP67 as described
by the internationalstandard IEC 60529 - Degrees
of Protectionprovided by Enclosures [IP Code];
test conditions: 15 - 35 °C,86- 106kPa, 1 meter, 30
minutes). Despite this classication, your device is
not impervious to water damagein any situation.

THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile is designed not to
exceedthe limits for exposure
to radio waves recommended
by international guidelines. The
guidelines were developed by an
independent scientic organisation
(ICNIRP)and include a substantial safety margin designed
to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of
measurement known as the Specic Absorption Rate,
or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2.0 W/kg. The
highest SAR valuesunderthe ICNIRP guidelines for this
device model are:

Health and safety information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Certification Information(SAR)
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 exposure limits are derived from the
recommendations of two expert organizations, the National Counsel on
Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the engineering
experts drawn from industry, government,
The exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile devices employs a
unit of measurement known as the the rate of absorption of RF energy by
the human body expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC
requires wireless devices to comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per
kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC exposure 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 recommended operating positions accepted
by the FCC with the device tested frequency bands.Although the SAR is
determined of the device while operating can be well below the maximum
value. This is because the device 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.
Before a new model device is available for sale to the it does not exceed
the exposure limit established by the FCC. Tests for each model are
performed in positions and locations (e.g. near the body) as required by the
FCC.
For typical operations, this model has been tested and meets the FCC
exposure guidelines.
SAR information on this and other models can be viewed on-line at
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. This site uses the FCC ID number
A3LSMT365.
You can check the FCC ID on the rear case. 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 device
SAR information can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/ cgb/sar.
Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always
switch your device forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or
danger. When connecting the device or any accessory to another device,

incompatible products.
FCC Notice and Cautions
FCC Notice
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for 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 or relocate the receiving antenna.
-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit from that to which the
receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The device may cause TV or radio interference if used in close proximity to
receiving equipment. The FCC can require you to stop using the device if
such interference cannot be eliminated. Vehicles using petroleum gas (such
as propane or butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection
Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the National Fire
ProtectionAssociation, One Battery march Park, Quincy, MA 02269,Attn:
Publication Sales Division.
Cautions
Changes or modifications made in the radio device, not expressly approved
by Samsung, will void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
The use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the
device warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the device.
Although your device is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and
can be broken.Avoid dropping, hitting, bending or sitting on it.
This device is capable of operating in 802.11a/n mode. For 802.11a/n
devices operating in the frequency range of 5.15 - 5.25 GHz, they are
restricted for indoor operations to reduce any potential harmful interference
for Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) in the US. WIFIAccess Points that are
capable of allowing your device to operate in 802.11a/n mode (5.15 - 5.25

GHz band) are optimized for indoor use only. If your WIFI network is
capable of operating in this mode, please restrict your WIFI use indoors to
not violate federal regulations to protect Mobile Satellite Services.
