Safety Precautions - Samsung GT-I8150B User Manual

Excessive exposure to sound at high volumes can cause hearing damage.
Always turn the volume down before plugging the earphones into an audio source and
use only the minimum volume setting necessary to hear your conversation or music.
Install mobile phones and equipment with caution
Ensure that any mobile phones or related equipment installed in your vehicle are securely
mounted. Avoid placing your phone and accessories near or in an air bag deployment
area. Improperly installed wireless equipment can cause serious injury when air bags inflate
rapidly.
Handle and dispose of batteries and chargers with care
 Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers specifically designed for your
phone. Incompatible batteries and chargers can cause serious injuries or damage
to your phone.
 Never dispose of batteries or phones in a fire. Follow all local regulations when
disposing used batteries or phones.
 Never place batteries or phones on or in heating devices, such as microwave
ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may explode when overheated.
 Never crush or puncture the battery. Avoid exposing the battery to high external
pressure, which can lead to an internal short circuit and overheating.
Avoid interference with pacemakers
Maintain a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between mobile phones 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 phone is interfering with a pacemaker or other medical device, turn off the phone
immediately and contact the manufacturer of the pacemaker or medical device for
guidance.
Turn off the phone in potentially explosive environments
Do not use your phone at refuelling points (service stations) or near fuels or chemicals.
Turn off your phone whenever directed by warning signs or instructions. Your phone 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 phone, its parts, or accessories.
Reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries
When sending text messages or playing games on your phone, hold the phone 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.
