Your Samsung mobile device must have sufficient
available memory and battery power to operate the
camera application. If you receive error messages when
launching the camera, try the following:
• Charge the battery or replace it with a battery that is fully

Error messages appear when launching the FM
radio
Error messages appear when opening music
files
The FM radio application on your Samsung mobile device
uses the headset cable as an antenna. Without a headset
connected, the FM radio will be unable to receive radio
stations. To use the FM radio, first ensure that the headset
is properly connected. Next, scan for and save the available
radio stations.
Some music files may not play on your Samsung mobile
device for a variety of reasons. If you receive error
messages when opening music files on your device, try the
following:
• Free some memory by transferring files to a PC or
deleting files from your device.
If you still cannot use the FM radio after performing these
steps, try accessing your desired station with another radio
receiver. If you can hear the station with another receiver,
your device may require service. Contact a Samsung
Service Centre.
• Ensure that the music file is not Digital Rights
Management (DRM)-protected. If the file is DRM-
protected, ensure that you have the appropriate license
or key to play the file.
• Ensure that your device supports the file type.

possible, as your device can interfere with the pacemaker.
If you must use your device, keep at least 15 cm away from the
pacemaker.
To minimise the possible interference with a pacemaker, use your
device on the opposite side of your body from the pacemaker.
Extreme temperatures can cause the deformation of the device and
reduce the charging capacity and life of your device and 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.
Do not use your device in a hospital or near medical
equipment that can be interfered with by radio frequency

Safety precautions
106
Handle memory cards with care
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification
information
Your device 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 devices that exceed a maximum exposure level (known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 W/kg.
During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was
0.03 W/kg. In normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be much lower, as
the device 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 device reduces your overall exposure
to RF energy.
The Declaration of Conformity statement at the back of this manual
demonstrates your device’s compliance with the European Radio &
Terminal Telecommunications Equipment (R&TTE) directive. For more
information about the SAR and related EU standards, visit the Samsung
website.
•
Do not remove a card while the device is transferring or accessing
information, as this could result in loss of data and/or damage to the
card or device.
•
•
Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity, and electrical noise
from other devices.
Do not touch gold-coloured contacts or terminals with your fingers or
metal objects. If dirty, wipe the card with a soft cloth.
Be sure to back up important data
Samsung is not responsible for data loss.
Do not distribute copyright-protected material
