Health and Safety Information 163
Display / Touch-Screen
Please note the following information when using
your mobile device:
WARNING REGARDING DISPLAY
The display on your mobile device is made of
glass or acrylic and could break if your mobile
device is dropped or if it receives significant
impact. Do not use if screen is broken or
cracked as this could cause injury to you.
WARRANTY DISCLAIMER: PROPER USE OF A
TOUCH-SCREEN MOBILE DEVICE
If your mobile device has a touch-screen
display, please note that a touch-screen
responds best to a light touch from the pad of
your finger or a non-metallic stylus. Using
excessive force or a metallic object when
pressing on the touch-screen may damage the
tempered glass surface and void the warranty.
For more information, please refer to the
“Standard Limited Warranty” on page 172.
GPS & AGPS
Certain Samsung mobile devices can use a Global
Positioning System (GPS) signal for location-based
applications. A GPS uses satellites controlled by the
U.S. Government that are subject to changes
implemented in accordance with the Department of
Defense policy and the 2008 Federal Radio
navigation Plan (FRP). Changes may affect the
performance of location-based technology on your
mobile device.
Certain Samsung mobile devices can also use an
Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS), which
obtains information from the cellular network to
improve GPS performance. AGPS uses your wireless
service provider's network and therefore airtime,
data charges, and/or additional charges may apply in
accordance with your service plan. Contact your
wireless service provider for details.
Your Location
Location-based information includes information that
can be used to determine the approximate location of
a mobile device. Mobile devices which are connected
to a wireless network transmit location-based
information. Additionally, if you use applications that
require location-based information (e.g. driving
directions), such applications transmit location-based
information. The location-based information may be
shared with third-parties, including your wireless
service provider, applications providers, Samsung,
and other third-parties providing services.
Use of AGPS in Emergency Calls
When you make an emergency call, the cellular
network may activate AGPS technology in your
mobile device to tell the emergency responders your
approximate location.
AGPS has limitations and might not work in your area.
