Health and safety information
133
This is because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels so as to use
only the power required to reach the network.
In general, the closer you are to a base station,
the lower the power output of the phone.
Before a new model phone is available for sale
to the public, compliance with the European
R&TTE Directive must be shown. This directive
includes as one of its essential requirements the
protection of the health and safety of the user
and any other person.
Precautions when using batteries
Never use a 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, the type of
battery, and the charger used. The battery
can be charged and discharged hundreds of
times, but it will gradually wear out. When
the operation 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. Disconnect the charger
from the power source when it is not in use.
Do not leave the battery connected to a
charger for more than a week, since
overcharging may shorten its life.
