To minimise the possible interference with a pacemaker, use your device on the opposite side of your body from the pacemaker.

Do not use your device in a hospital or near medical equipment that can be interfered with by radio frequency

If you personally use any medical equipment, contact the manufacturer of the equipment to ensure the safety of your equipment from radio frequency.

If you are using a hearing aid, contact the manufacturer for information about radio interference

Some hearing aids may be interfered with by the radio frequency of your device. Contact the manufacturer to ensure the safety of your hearing aid.

Turn off the device in potentially explosive environments

Always comply with regulations, instructions and signs in potentially explosive environments.

Do not use your device at refuelling points (service stations), near fuels or chemicals, and at blasting areas.

Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the same compartment as the device, its parts, or accessories.

Turn off your device when in an aircraft

Using your device in an aircraft is illegal. Your device may interfere with the electronic navigation instruments of the aircraft.

Electronic devices in a motor vehicle may malfunction due to the radio frequency of your device

Electronic devices in your car may malfunction due to radio frequency of your device. Contact the manufacturer for more information.

Comply with all safety warnings and regulations regarding mobile device usage while operating a vehicle

While driving, safely operating the vehicle is your first responsibility. Never use your mobile device while driving, if it is prohibited by law. For your safety and the safety of others, practice good common sense and remember the following tips:

Use a hands-free device.

Get to know your device and its convenience features, such as speed dial and redial. These features help you reduce the time needed to place or receive calls on your mobile device.

Position your device within easy reach. Be able to access your wireless device without removing your eyes from the road. If you receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your voice mail answer it for you.

Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving. Suspend calls in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and heavy traffic can be hazardous.

Do not take notes or look up phone numbers. Jotting down a“to do”list or flipping through your address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility of driving safely.

Dial sensibly and assess the traffic. Place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. If you need to make a call, dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.

Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations that have the potential to divert your attention from the road.

Use your device to call for help. Dial a local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, or medical emergencies.

Use your device to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto accident, a crime in progress, or a serious emergency where lives are in danger, call a local emergency number.

Call roadside assistance or a special, non-emergency assistance number when necessary. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or another special, non-emergency number.

GT-P1000CWEKEN, GT-P1000MSATMC, GT-P1000CWFIDE, GT-P1000CWFXEO, GT-P1000CWDO2C specifications

The Samsung GT-P1000 series, which includes the GT-P1000CWANEE and GT-P1000MSANEE models, is a part of Samsung's first-generation Galaxy Tab line, released in 2010. These tablets marked Samsung's entry into the growing market for mobile computing devices, providing users with a portable yet functional alternative to traditional laptops.

At the heart of the GT-P1000 is a vibrant 7-inch display that boasts a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels. This screen offers a suitable viewing experience for both media consumption and productivity tasks, making it easy to read text and navigate applications. The compact size makes it highly portable, fitting comfortably in most bags and even larger pockets.

Powered by a 1 GHz ARM Cortex-A8 processor, the GT-P1000 delivers a smooth performance for basic multitasking, web browsing, and playing casual games. An integrated GPU enhances visual performance, ensuring that graphics-heavy applications run relatively smoothly given the tablet's generation. With 16GB or 32GB of internal storage, depending on the variant, users can store a considerable amount of apps, videos, and music.

One of the key features of the GT-P1000 series is its Android operating system, initially shipping with Android 2.2 (Froyo) but upgradable to later versions with custom ROMs. This operating system offers a user-friendly interface and access to the vast array of applications available on the Google Play Store.

Connectivity options for both models include Wi-Fi and, in some variants, 3G capabilities. This combination allows for seamless web browsing and online streaming, enhancing the device's utility as a mobile companion. Additionally, Bluetooth functionality is included, facilitating easy pairing with other devices.

The tablets are equipped with a rear-facing 3-megapixel camera and a front-facing VGA camera, allowing users to capture images and engage in video calls. While camera technology has advanced significantly since the release of the GT-P1000, these features were notable at the time, providing users with basic photographic capabilities.

The Samsung GT-P1000 series introduced users to a world of mobile computing with its blend of portability and functionality. Despite its age, it laid the foundation for the evolution of tablets, setting a precedent for larger versions with enhanced specifications in future Galaxy Tab models.
