Health and Safety
Information
Exposure to Radio-Frequency Energy
(SAR Information)
This phone meets Australian Communications Authority
(ACA) requirements (AS/NZS 2772) concerning
exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It
is designed and manufactured, so as not to exceed the
limits for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy, as
recommended by ACA. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels
of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines
were developed by independent scientific organisations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. The limits include a substantial safety margin
designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless
of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit
of measurement known as SAR (Specific Absorption
Rate). The SAR limit recommended by ACA is 1.6W/kg
* The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram
(W/kg) averaged over one gram of body tissue. The limit incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and
to account for any variations in measurements. The SAR values may vary
depending on the national reporting requirements and the network band.

Precautions When Using Batteries
• Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in
any way.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• If you use the phone near the network's base station,
it uses less power; talk and standby time are greatly
affected by the signal strength on the cellular
network and the parameters set by the network
operator.
• Battery charging time depends on the remaining
battery charge and the type of battery and charger
used. The battery can be charged and discharged
hundreds of times, but it will gradually wear out.
When the operation time (talk time and standby time)
is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a
new battery.
• If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge
itself over time.
• Use only Samsung-approved batteries and recharge
.
*
your battery only with Samsung-approved chargers.
When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the
power source. Do not leave the battery connected to
a charger for more than a week, since overcharging
may shorten its life.
• Extreme temperatures will affect the charging
capacity of your battery: it may require cooling or
warming first.
