Safety Information

Read all safety information before using the device to ensure safe and proper use. More safety information is available in the Settings app under the safety information menu.

Warning:

• Do not expose the device to physical impact or damage.
• Use only Samsung-approved batteries, chargers, and cables specifically designed for your device.
• Prevent the multipurpose jack and battery terminals from coming into contact with foreign materials such as metal, liquids, or dust.
• If any part of the device, such as the glass or acrylic body, is broken, smokes, or emits a burning odor, stop using the device immediately. Use the device again only after it has been repaired at a Samsung Service Center.
• Do not turn on or use the device when the battery compartment is exposed.
• Do not disassemble or reuse the battery.
• Do not allow children or animals to chew or suck the device.
• The device can be used in locations with an ambient temperature of 0 °C to 35 °C. Storage is recommended between -20 °C to 50 °C. Using or storing the device outside these ranges may damage it or reduce battery lifespan.
• Do not use your device in a hot environment or near fire.
• Comply with all safety warnings and regulations regarding mobile device usage while operating a vehicle.

You can download and install firmware updates via the FOTA (Firmware Over-The-Air) service. To check for updates, go to Settings > Software update > Download and install.

If your device is frozen and unresponsive, press and hold the Side key and the Volume Down key simultaneously for more than 7 seconds to restart it.

The actual available capacity of the internal memory is less than the specified capacity because the operating system and default apps occupy part of the memory. Available capacity may change upon device upgrade.

It is recommended not to use fixed graphics on the touchscreen for extended periods to prevent afterimages (screen burn-in) or ghosting.

To prevent possible hearing damage when using a headset, do not listen to sound at high volume for long periods.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Certification Information

Your device conforms to U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) standards that limit human exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy. These standards prevent the sale of mobile devices that exceed a maximum exposure level (SAR) of 1.6 W/kg.

In normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be much lower, as the device emits only the RF energy necessary to transmit a signal. By automatically emitting lower levels when possible, your device reduces overall RF energy exposure.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to 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.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device based on compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. You can view FCC certification by opening Settings > About phone > Status.

SAR information for this and other devices can be found on the FCC website at: www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/. Use the FCC ID to find SAR values.

SAR information for this device is also available on Samsung's website: www.samsung.com/sar.

FCC Notice

The device may cause TV or radio interference if used near receiving equipment. The FCC may require you to stop using the mobile device if such interference cannot be eliminated.

Information about RF exposure from FCC: In August 1996, the FCC adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy. These guidelines are consistent with international and U.S. standards. The design of this phone complies with FCC guidelines and these international standards.

Body effects: For body operation, this device has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with accessories containing no metal and providing a minimum separation distance of 15mm between the device and the user's body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance.

Class B Compliance under Article 15 of the FCC: This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this device does not cause harmful interference. 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.

Note: 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 different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
