health and safety information
Comply with the following precautions to avoid dangerous or illegal situations and ensure peak performance of your mobile device.
Getting the Most Out of Your
Reception
Keeping Tabs on Signal Strength
The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the signal strength in your area. Your phone informs you of the current signal strength by displaying a number of bars next to the signal strength icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger the signal. If you???re inside a building, being near a window may give you better reception.
Understanding How Your Phone Operates

Knowing Radio Frequency Safety
The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP standards described below. In
1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).
Maintaining Your Phone???s Peak Performance
There are several simple guidelines for operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.
???Speak directly into the mouthpiece.
???Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove the battery. If it???s inoperable, return it to a dealer store or call Customer Support for service.
For the best care of your phone, only authorized personnel should service your phone and accessories. Faulty service may void the warranty.

Following Safety Guidelines
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic
Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating systems and/or entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their representative to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF signals.
Always turn off the phone in health care facilities and request permission before using the phone near medical equipment.
71
Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in the air.
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn off your phone when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating that
Construction crews often use
Turn off your phone when you are in an area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it is rare, your phone or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks could cause an explosion or a fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. These areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. These areas include:
???Fueling areas such as gas stations.
???Below deck on boats.
???Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
???Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or metal powders.
???Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle???s engine.
information safety and health
Never transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.
72
information safety and health
Restricting Children???s Access to your Phone
Your phone is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with it because they could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone, dial 911 by mistake or make calls that increase your phone bill.
Warning Regarding Display
The display on your handset is made of glass or acrylic and could break if your handset is dropped or if it receives significant impact. Do not use if screen is broken or cracked as this could cause injury to you.
Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery???s performance.
???Use only Samsung approved batteries and desktop chargers. These chargers are designed to maximize battery life. Using other batteries or chargers voids your warranty and may cause damage.
???In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32?? F to 113?? F (0?? C to 45?? C).
???Don???t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.
???Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
???Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
???Don???t attempt to disassemble or
???The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time.
???It???s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. When used correctly, the battery can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.
73
???Don???t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time. It???s best to follow these storage rules:
Less than one month:
Disposal of Lithium Ion (LiIon) Batteries
For safe disposal options of your LiIon batteries, contact your nearest service center.
Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.
For safety, do not handle a damaged or leaking LiIon battery.

Industry Canada Notice
Cautions
Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly approved in this document could void your warranty for this equipment, and void your authority to operate this equipment. Only use approved batteries, antennas and chargers. The use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the phone.
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending or sitting on it.
Information to User
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of
information safety and health
74
information safety and health
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation; if this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
???Reorient / relocate the receiving antenna.
???Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
???Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than the level reported to the FCC. This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone design and other factors. What is important to remember is that each phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not represent a variation in safety.
75
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values between different model phones do not mean variations in safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for use by the public.
The highest reported SAR values of the I7500l are: GSM850 head: 0.255
GSM1900 head: 0.397
WCDMA850 head: 0.43
WCDMA1900 head: 1.3
