    Safety Quick Guide
    Read these guidelines before using your wireless
    phone. Failure to comply with these guidelines may
    be dangerous or illegal. For more detailed safety
    information, see “Health and Safety Information” on
    page 106.
    Road safety comes first
    Do not use a hand-held phone while driving; park the
    vehicle first. 
    Switch phone off when refueling
    Do not use the phone at a refueling point (service
    station) or near fuels or chemicals.
    Switch phone off on aircraft
    Wireless phones can cause interference. Using them
    on aircraft is both illegal and dangerous.
    Switch phone off in hospital
    Switch off your phone near medical equipment.
    Follow any regulations or rules in force.
    Interference
    All wireless phones may get interference which
    could affect performance.
    Respect special regulations
    Follow all special regulations in any area and always
    switch off your phone whenever its use is prohibited,
    or when it may cause interference or danger (in a
    hospital, for example). 
    						
    							Radio frequency exposure information
    In August 1996, the Federal Communications
    Commisision (FCC) of the U.S. adopted an updated
    safety standard for human exposure to radio
    frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC
    regulated transmitters. The design of this phone
    complies with the FCC guidelines and those
    standards.
    To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
    guidelines, if you wear a handset on your body, use
    the Samsung-supplied or approved carrying case,
    holster, or other body-worn accessory.
    If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the
    antenna is at least 1.5cm from your body when
    transmitting. Use of non-approved accessories may
    violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.
    Use sensibly
    Use only in the normal position (to ear). Avoid
    unnessary contact with the antenna when the phone
    is switched on.
    Accessories and batteries
    Use only SAMSUNG-approved accessories and
    batteries. 
    Use qualified service
    Only qualified service personnel may install or repair
    your phone.
