Samsung GT-E2120 - Manual

safety and usage information

Turn off the phone or disable the wireless

functions when in an aircraft

Your phone can cause interference with aircraft

equipment. Follow all airline regulations and turn off

your phone or switch to a mode that disables the

wireless functions when directed by airline personnel.

Protect batteries and chargers from damage

Avoid exposing batteries to very cold or very hot

•

temperatures (below 0° C/32° F or above 45° C/

113° F). Extreme temperatures can reduce the

charging capacity and life of your batteries.
Prevent batteries from contacting metal objects,

•

as this can create a connection between the + and

– terminals of your batteries and lead to temporary or

permanent battery damage.
Never use a damaged charger or battery.

•

Handle your phone carefully and sensibly

Do not disassemble your phone due to a risk of

•

electric shock.
Do not allow your phone to get wet—liquids can

•

cause serious damage and will change the colour

of the label that indicates water damage inside

the phone. Do not handle your phone with wet

hands. Water damage to your phone can void your

manufacturer’s warranty.

Avoid using or storing your phone in dusty, dirty areas

•

to prevent damage to moving parts.
Your phone is a complex electronic device—protect

•

it from impacts and rough handling to avoid serious

damage.
Do not paint your phone, as paint can clog moving

•

parts and prevent proper operation.
If your phone has a camera fl ash or light, avoid using it

•

close to the eyes of children or animals.
Your phone may be damaged by exposure to magnetic

•

fi elds. Do not use carrying cases or accessories with

magnetic closures or allow your phone to come in

contact with magnetic fi elds for extended periods of

time.

Avoid interference with other electronic devices

Your phone emits radio frequency (RF) signals that

may interfere with unshielded or improperly shielded

electronic equipment, such as pacemakers, hearing

aids, medical devices, and other electronic devices in

homes or vehicles. Consult the manufacturers of your

electronic devices to solve any interference problems

you experience.

Important usage information

Use your phone in the normal position

Avoid contact with your phone's internal antenna.

Internal antenna

Allow only qualifi ed personnel to service your

phone

Allowing non-qualifi ed personnel to service your phone

may result in damage to your phone and will void your

warranty.

Specifi c Absorption Rate (SAR) certifi cation

information

Your phone conforms to European Union (EU)

standards that limit human exposure to radio frequency

(RF) energy emitted by radio and telecommunications

equipment. These standards prevent the sale of mobile

phones that exceed a maximum exposure level (known

as the Specifi c Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 watts

per kilogram.
During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this

model was 0.761 watts per kilogram. In normal use, the

actual SAR is likely to be much lower, as the phone has

been designed to emit only the RF energy necessary

to transmit a signal to the nearest base station. By

automatically emitting lower levels when possible, your

phone reduces your overall exposure to RF energy.
The Declaration of Conformity of this manual

demonstrates your phones compliance with the

European Radio & Terminal Telecommunications

Equipment (R&TTE) directive. For more information

about the SAR and related EU standards, visit the

Samsung mobile phone website.

Safety precautions

Drive safely at all times

Avoid using your phone while driving and obey all

regulations that restrict the use of mobile phones while

driving. Use hands-free accessories to increase your

safety when possible.

Follow all safety warnings and regulations

Comply with any regulations that restrict the use of a

mobile phone in a certain area.

Use only Samsung-approved accessories

Using incompatible accessories may damage your

phone or cause injury.

Turn off the phone near medical equipment

Your phone can interfere with medical equipment in

hospitals or health care facilities. Follow all regulations,

posted warnings, and directions from medical

personnel.

Safety warnings

Keep your phone away from small children and

pets

Keep your phone and all accessories out of reach from

small children and pets. Small parts may cause choking

or serious injury if swallowed.

Protect your hearing

Listening to a headset at high volumes can

damage your hearing. Use only the minimum

volume setting necessary to hear your

conversation or music.

Install mobile phones and equipment with

caution

Ensure that any mobile phones or related equipment

installed in your vehicle are securely mounted. Avoid

placing your phone and accessories near or in an air

bag deployment area. Improperly installed wireless

equipment can cause serious injury when air bags infl ate

rapidly.

Handle and dispose of batteries and chargers

with care

Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers

•

specifi cally designed for your phone.

Incompatible batteries and chargers can cause serious

injuries or damage to your phone.
Never dispose of batteries or phones in a fi re. Follow

•

all local regulations when disposing of used batteries

or phones.
Never place batteries or phones on or in heating

•

devices, such as microwave ovens, stoves, or

radiators. Batteries may explode when overheated.
Never crush or puncture the battery. Avoid exposing

•

the battery to high external pressure, which can lead to

an internal short circuit and overheating.

Avoid interference with pacemakers

Maintain a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between mobile

phones and pacemakers to avoid potential interference,

as recommended by manufacturers and the independent

research group, Wireless Technology Research. If you

have any reason to suspect that your phone is interfering

with a pacemaker or other medical device, turn off the

phone immediately and contact the manufacturer of the

pacemaker or medical device for guidance.

Ensure maximum battery and charger life

Avoid charging batteries for more than a week, as

•

overcharging may shorten battery life.
Over time, unused batteries will discharge and must be

•

recharged before use.
Disconnect chargers from power sources when not

•

in use.
Use batteries only for their intended purpose.

•

Handle SIM cards and memory cards with care

Do not remove a card while the phone is transferring

•

or accessing information, as this could result in loss of

data and/or damage to the card or phone.
Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity, and

•

electrical noise from other devices.
Frequent writing and erasing will shorten the life span

•

of memory cards.
Do not touch gold-coloured contacts or terminals with

•

your fi ngers or metal objects. If dirty, wipe the card with

a soft cloth.

Ensure access to emergency services

Emergency calls from your phone may not be possible in

some areas or circumstances. Before traveling in remote

or areas without signal coverage, plan an alternate

method of contacting emergency services personnel.

Turn off the phone in potentially explosive

environments

Do not use your phone at refueling points (service

stations) or near fuels or chemicals. Turn off your phone

whenever directed by warning signs or instructions.

Your phone could cause explosions or fi re in and around

fuel or chemical storage, transfer areas and blasting

areas. Do not store or carry fl ammable liquids, gases,

or explosive materials in the same compartment as the

phone, its parts, or accessories.

Reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries

While using your phone, hold the phone with a relaxed

grip, press the keys lightly, use special features that

reduce the number of keys you have to press (such as

templates and predictive text), and take frequent breaks.

Do not use the phone if the screen is cracked or

broken

Broken glass or acrylic could cause injury to your hands

and face. Bring the phone to a Samsung service centre

to replace the screen. Damage caused by careless

handling will void your manufacturer's warranty.

Comply with the following precautions to prevent danger or legal actions and ensure peak performance from your mobile phone.
