Use your device to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto
accident, a crime in progress, or a serious emergency where lives
are in danger, call a local emergency number.
Call roadside assistance or a special, non-emergency assistance
number when necessary. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing
no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident
where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen,
call roadside assistance or another special, non-emergency
number.
Proper care and use of your mobile device
Keep your device dry
Humidity and all types of liquids may damage device parts or
electronic circuits.
When wet, remove the battery without turning on your device. Dry
your device with a towel and take it to a service centre.
Liquids will change the colour of the label that indicates water
damage inside the device. Water damage to your device can void
your manufacturer's warranty.
Do not use or store your device in dusty, dirty areas
Dust can cause your device to malfunction.
Do not store your device on slopes
If your device falls, it can be damaged.
Do not store your device in hot or cold areas. Use your device
at -20 °C to 50 °C
Your device can explode if left inside a closed vehicle, as the
inside temperature can reach up to 80 °C.
Do not expose your device to direct sunlight for extended periods
of time (such as on the dashboard of a car).
Store the battery at 0 °C to 40 °C.
Be sure to back up important data
Samsung is not responsible for data loss.
Do not distribute copyright-protected material
Do not distribute copyright-protected material that you have recorded
to others without the permission of the content owners. Doing this
may violate copyright laws. The manufacturer is not liable for any
legal issues caused by the user's illegal use of copyrighted material.
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 W/kg.
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.
For more information about the SAR and related EU standards, visit
the Samsung website.

Comply with all safety warnings and regulations
regarding mobile device usage while operating a
vehicle
While driving, safely operating the vehicle is your first responsibility.
Never use your mobile device while driving, if it is prohibited by law.
For your safety and the safety of others, practice good common
sense and remember the following tips:
Use a hands-free device.
Get to know your device and its convenience features, such as
speed dial and redial. These features help you reduce the time
needed to place or receive calls on your mobile device.
Position your device within easy reach. Be able to access your
wireless device without removing your eyes from the road. If you
receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your voice
mail answer it for you.
Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving.
Suspend calls in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions.
Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and heavy traffic can be hazardous.
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers. Jotting down a "to
do" list or flipping through your address book takes attention away
from your primary responsibility of driving safely.
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic. Place calls when you are not
moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your
car will be stationary. If you need to make a call, dial only a few
numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may
be distracting. Make people you are talking with aware you are
driving and suspend conversations that have the potential to divert
your attention from the road.
Use your device to call for help. Dial a local emergency number in
the case of fire, traffic accident, or medical emergencies.
Do not use the device if the screen is cracked or broken
Broken glass or acrylic could cause injury to your hands and face.
Take the device to a Samsung Service Centre to have it repaired.
Do not use the device for anything other than its intended use
Avoid disturbing others when using the device in public
Do not allow children to use your device
Your device is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as they
could hurt themselves and others, damage the device, or make calls
that increase your charges.
Install mobile devices and equipment with caution
Ensure that any mobile devices or related equipment installed in
your vehicle are securely mounted.
Avoid placing your device and accessories near or in an air bag
deployment area. Improperly installed wireless equipment can
cause serious injury when air bags inflate rapidly.
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 manufacturer's warranty.
Handle SIM or UIM cards or 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 devices.
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.
Install the SIM or UIM card and battery
1. Remove the back cover and insert the SIM or UIM card.
