Ensure access to emergency services

Emergency calls from your device may not be possible in some areas or circumstances. Before travelling in remote or undeveloped areas, plan an alternate method of contacting emergency services personnel.

Keep in mind the following for the water proof feature:

Your device has been tested in a controlled environment and shown to be dust and water resistant in certain circumstances (meets requirements of classification IP67 as described by the international standard IEC 60529 - Degrees of Protection provided by Enclosures [IP Code]; test conditions: 15 - 35 °C, 86 - 106 kPa, 1 meter, for 30 minutes). Despite this classification, your device is not impervious to water damage in any situation.

Improperly sealed covers, extended immersion in water, and/or excessive pressure may cause leaks and allow water to enter the device. Do not intentionally immerse the device in water, allow the device to come in contact with water, or expose it to humidity.

Improper sealing of covers, excessive exposure to dust and/or excessive pressure may cause dust penetration. Do not expose to dust and/or sand for extended periods of time.

Your phone is a complex electronic device. Protect it from impact and rough handling to avoid serious damage. Damage to the device’s exterior may reduce its protection against water damage. Do not insert sharp objects into the earpiece or any of the speaker, microphone, air vent, or receiver holes, as this may puncture the protective surface and allow water and dust to enter.

Keep your personal and important data safe

While using your device, be sure to back up important data. Samsung is not responsible for data loss.

When disposing of your device, back up all data and then reset your device to prevent misuse of your personal information.

Do not distribute copyright-protected material

Do not distribute copyright-protected material that you have recorded to others without the permission of the content owners. Doing this may violate copyright laws. The manufacturer is not liable for any legal issues caused by the user’s illegal use of copyrighted material.
