Safety Precautions
Compliance with Safety Standards
The Samsung Cellular phone meets all standards and recommendations for the
protection of the public from exposure to radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy
established by governmental bodies and other qualified organizations. To reduce the
risk of fire, electric shock, serious personal injury, or property damage, please follow
these guidelines:
Driving
Using a wireless phone while driving is illegal in some states and countries. Know the
laws and regulations for your area, and pull off the road and park if you need to make
a call. If you must use the phone while driving, purchase and install the optional Hands-
Free Car Kit.
Electronic Devices
Your wireless telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When the power is on, the
phone receives and sends out RF energy. Most modern electronic equipment, such as
cars, contains an RF signal shield. RF energy may affect some inadequately shielded
electronic equipment.
Turn off your phone in health care facilities, and always request pacemakers and
hearing aids, to determine if they are shielded adequately from external RF signals.
Note if there are any regulations posted in area regarding the operation of wireless
phones, and learn where you can use them safely within facility.
Aircraft
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. The Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) requires that you have prior permission from the crew to use your phone while the
plane is on the ground. FCC regulations prohibit using your phone is in the air. Do not
use your phone at any time while traveling on board a plane.
Blasting Areas
Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives. To avoid
interfering with blasting operation, turn off your phone when you are in a blasting area
or in any area with signs posted as "Turn off two-way radio."
