Please read this manual before using the Gear S
to ensure safe and proper use.
• Descriptions are based on the Gear S default
settings.
• Some content may differ, depending on the
region, service provider, or device’s software.
• Content that requires high CPU and RAM
usage will affect the overall performance of
the device. Apps related to the content may
not work properly depending on the device’s
specications and the environment that it is
used in.
• Samsung is not liable for performance issues
caused by apps supplied by providers other
than Samsung.
• Samsung is not liable for performance issues
or incompatibilities caused by edited registry
settings or modied operating system software.
Attempting to customize the operating system
may cause the Gear S or apps to work
improperly.
