Batteries may explode when overheated. Protect your hearing Listening to a headset at high volumes can damage your hearing. Use only the minimum volume setting necessary to hear your conversation or music. 1 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 equipment, turn off the device immediately and contact the manufacturer of the pacemaker or medical equipment for guidance. Reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries When sending text messages or playing games on 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. Safety precautions Drive safely at all times Avoid using your device while driving and obey all regulations that restrict the use of mobile devices while driving. Use hands-free accessories to increase your safety when possible. Turn off the device in potentially explosive environments Do not use your device at refuelling 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 and transfer areas or blasting areas. Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the same compartment as the device, its parts, or accessories.

Protect batteries and chargers from damage · Avoid exposing batteries to very cold or very hot temperatures (below 0° C/32° F or above 45° C/113° F). Extreme temperatures can reduce the charging capacity and life of your 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. · Risk of explosion if a battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions. Turn off the device near medical equipment Your device can interfere with medical equipment in hospitals or health care facilities.

Turn off the device or disable the wireless functions when in an aircraft Your device can cause interference with aircraft equipment. Follow all airline regulations and turn off your device or switch to a mode that disables the wireless functions when directed by the airline personnel. 3 Handle your device carefully and sensibly · Do not allow your device to get wet--liquids can cause serious damage. 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 made of complex electronics-- 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. · Avoid using the device's camera flash or light close to the eyes of children or animals. · Your device and memory cards 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. · Ensure that you are not blocking the internal antenna. · The internal antenna is located at the bottom of the device. · When using the GPS service, hold your device in portrait orientation. Avoid interference with other electronic equipment Your device emits radio frequency (RF) signals that may interfere with unshielded or improperly shielded electronic equipment, such as pacemakers, hearing aids, and medical equipment in homes or vehicles. Consult the manufacturers of your electronic equipment 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 unqualified personnel to service your device may result in damage to your device and will void your warranty. 4 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. · Frequent writing and erasing will shorten the life span of memory cards. · Do not touch gold-coloured 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 travelling in remote or undeveloped areas, plan an alternate method of contacting emergency services personnel. Handle SIM cards and 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 equipment. 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 watts per kilogram of body tissue. 5 During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was 0.671 watts per kilogram. 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. The Declaration of Conformity at the back of this user manual demonstrates your device's compliance with the European Radio & Terminal Telecommunications Equipment (R&TTE) directive. For more information about the SAR and related EU standards, visit the Samsung mobile website.
