Turning Bluetooth On/Off
In this mode, other devices can detect your i830, even if a bond
hasn’t been established; however, to receive a beam from
another device, you must accept the incoming beam on your
i830. See Receiving a Bluetooth Beam for more information.
About Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short‐range wireless communications technology
capable of exchanging information over a distance of about 30
feet without requiring a physical connection. Unlike infrared,
you don’t need to line up the devices to beam information with
Bluetooth.
If the devices are within a range of one another, you can
exchange information between them,even if they are located in
different rooms. Your Pocket PC allows you to beam files,
appointments, tasks, and contact cards between devices that
have Bluetooth capabilities or you can create a dial‐up
connection between your device and a Bluetooth phone. You
can then use the Bluetooth phone as a modem.
Turning Bluetooth On/Off
1. Tap Start in the upper right hand portion of your screen.
2. Tap Settings, and then select the Connections tab.
3. Tap Bluetooth.
4. Select or clear the "Turn on Bluetooth" check box. The
Bluetooth radio is turned on or off depending on your
selection.
Note: By default the Bluetooth radio is turned off. If you turn Bluetooth on and
then turn off the i830, you will also turn off the Bluetooth radio. When you turn
your i830 back on, Bluetooth also turns on automatically.
Bluetooth Modes
Bluetooth operates in two modes:
On/Off Mode
Making your i830 Discoverable
When the Bluetooth radio is turned on, you can use the
Bluetooth features available in the i830. When the Bluetooth
radio is turned off, you cannot send or receive information via
Bluetooth. To save battery life or in situations where radio use
is prohibited, such as airline traveling, you can turn off
Bluetooth in your i830.
1. Tap Start in the upper right hand portion of your screen.
2. Tap Settings, and then select the Connections tab.
3. Tap Bluetooth.
4. Select the "Turn on Bluetooth" check box, and then select the
"Make this device discoverable to other devices" check box.
Discoverable
Other Bluetooth devices can now detect your device and
attempt to beam information to it, establish a connection, or
use a Bluetooth service.
The Discoverable mode is when Bluetooth is set to on in your
i830, and all other Bluetooth devices are within range and can
detect your device and beam information to it, establish a bond
to your phone, or use another Bluetooth service.
Note: If you do not want your i830 to be discoverable, clear the "Make this
device discoverable to other devices" check box.
78
Section 12: Bluetooth
Section 12: Bluetooth
79
Bluetooth Bonds
A bond is a relationship that you create between your Pocket
PC and another Bluetooth device to exchange information in a
secure manner. Creating a bond involves entering the same
PIN on the two devices sharing a bond. Once a bond is created
between devices, the devices do not have to be discoverable to
exchange information; however, each device must have its
Bluetooth radio on.
Bonds are created only once between devices. Once a bond is
created, devices can exchange information as soon the bond is
recognized, eliminating the need to discover one another or to
enter security features like a common PIN.
Beaming Using Bluetooth
It is possible to exchange information using Bluetooth instead
of infrared beaming, eliminating the need for the devices
sharing information to be within ʺline‐of‐siteʺ of each other.

Health and safety
information
Exposure to radio frequency (RF)
signals
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted
levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on the safety standards that
were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and through
evaluation of scientific studies.
The standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless phones
employs a unit of measurement known as Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit set by the
FCC is 1.6W/kg.*
* In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg)
averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account
for any variations in measurements.
85
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating
positions specified by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in
all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level,
the actual SAR level of the phone while operating
can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to operate at
multiple power levels so as to use only the power
required to reach the network. In general, the
closer you are to a wireless base station antenna,
the lower the power output of the phone.
For body operation
SAR compliance for body-worn operating configurations
is limited to the specific belt-clip/holster supplied
or approved by SAMSUNG, if available. The use
of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements
may not comply with FCC RF exposure compliance
and should be avoided.
Before a new model phone is available for sale to
the public, it must be tested and certified to the
FCC that it does not exceed the limit established
by the government-adopted requirement for safe
exposure. The tests are performed in positions
and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the
body) as required by the FCC for each model.
While there may be differences between the SAR
levels of various phones and at various positions,
they all meet the government requirement.
None compliance with the above conditions may
violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.
For more Information concerning exposure to
radio frequency signals, see the following
websites:
Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization
for this model phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this

• Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places,
such as in a car in summer or winter conditions,
as you will reduce the capacity and lifetime of
the battery. Always try to keep the battery at
room temperature. A phone with a hot or cold
battery may temporarily not work, even when
the battery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are
particularly affected by temperatures below 0
°C (32 °F).
Precautions when using batteries
• Never use any charger or battery that is
damaged in any way.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• If you use the phone near the network’s base
station, it uses less power; talk and standby
time are greatly affected by the signal strength
on the cellular network and the parameters set
by the network operator.
• Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental
short- circuiting can occur when a metallic
object (coin, clip or pen) causes a direct
connection between the + and – terminals of
the battery (metal strips on the battery), for
example when you carry a spare battery in a
pocket or bag. Short-circuiting the terminals
may damage the battery or the object causing
the short-circuiting.
• Battery charging time depends on the remaining
battery charge, the type of battery, and the
charger used. The battery can be charged and
discharged hundreds of times, but it will
gradually wear out. When the operation time
(talk time and standby time) is noticeably
shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new
battery.
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with
local regulations. Always recycle. Do not dispose
of batteries in a fire.
• If left unused, a fully charged battery will
discharge itself over time.
• Use only Samsung-approved batteries and
recharge your battery only with Samsung-
approved chargers. When a charger is not in
use, disconnect it from the power source. Do
not leave the battery connected to a charger for
more than a week, since overcharging may
shorten its life.
Road safety
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability
to communicate by voice, almost anywhere,
anytime. But an important responsibility
accompanies the benefits of wireless phones, one
that every user must uphold.
• Extreme temperatures will affect the charging
capacity of your battery: it may require cooling
or warming first.
When driving a car, driving is your first
responsibility. When using your wireless phone
behind the wheel of a car, make sure that you are
following the special regulations in a given area or
country.
88

Persons with pacemakers:
Operating environment
• Should always keep the phone more than 15 cm
(6 inches) from their pacemaker when the
phone is switched on
Remember to follow any special regulations in
force in any area and always switch your phone off
whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may
cause interference or danger.
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize potential interference
When connecting the phone or any accessory to
another device, read its user’s guide for detailed
safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible
products.
If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, switch your phone off
immediately.
As with other mobile radio transmitting
equipment, users are advised that for the
satisfactory operation of the equipment and for
the safety of personnel, it is recommended that
the equipment should only be used in the normal
operating position (held to your ear with the
antenna pointing over your shoulder).
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with
some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may wish to consult your
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other medical devices
Electronic devices
If you use any other personal medical devices,
consult the manufacturer of your device to
determine if it is adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Your physician may be able to
assist you in obtaining this information. Switch
your phone off in health care facilities when any
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to
do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be
using equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded
from radio frequency (RF) signals. However,
certain electronic equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
Consult the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a
minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) be
maintained between a wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent research and
recommendations of Wireless Technology
Research.

emergencies, for example).
Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone
must be switched on and in a service area with
adequate signal strength. Emergency calls may
not be possible on all wireless phone networks or
when certain network services and/or phone
features are in use. Check with local service
providers.
Posted facilities
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted
notices require you to do so.
Potentially explosive environment
To make an emergency call:
Switch your phone off when in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all
signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could
cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury
or even death.
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.
2. Key in the emergency number for your present
location. Emergency numbers vary by location.
Users are advised to switch the phone off while at
a refueling point (service station). Users are
reminded of the need to observe restrictions on
the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel
storage and distribution areas), chemical plants or
where blasting operations are in progress.
3. Press
.
If certain features are in use (call barring, for
example), you may first need to deactivate those
features before you can make an emergency call.
Consult this document and your local cellular
service provider.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
often but not always clearly marked. They include
the areas below decks on boats, chemical transfer
or storage facilities, vehicles using liquefied
petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), areas
where the air contains chemicals or particles, such
as grain, dust or metal powders, and any other
area where you would normally be advised to turn
off your vehicle engine.
When making an emergency call, remember to
give all the necessary information as accurately as
possible. Remember that your phone may be the
only means of communication at the scene of an
accident; do not end the call until given
permission to do so.
