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
. Therefore:

Always tell the emergency responder your location

to the best of your ability; and

Remain on the mobile device for as long as the

emergency responder instructs you.

Navigation

Maps, directions, and other navigation-data,
including data relating to your current location,
may contain inaccurate or incomplete data, and
circumstances can and do change over time. In
some areas, complete information may not be
available. Therefore, you should always visually
confirm that the navigational instructions are
consistent with what you see before following

them. All users should pay attention to road
conditions, closures, traffic, and all other factors
that may impact safe driving or walking. Always
obey posted road signs
.

Emergency Calls

This mobile device, like any wireless mobile
device, operates using radio signals, wireless
and landline networks, as well as
user-programmed functions, which cannot
guarantee connection in all conditions, areas, or
circumstances.

Therefore, you should never rely solely on any
wireless mobile device for essential
communications (medical emergencies, for
example). Before traveling in remote or
underdeveloped areas, plan an alternate method
of contacting emergency services personnel.
Remember, to make or receive any calls, the
mobile device must be switched on and in a
service area with adequate signal strength.

Emergency calls may not be possible on all
wireless mobile device networks or when certain
network services and/or mobile device features
are in use. Check with local service providers.

To make an emergency call:

If the phone is not on, switch it on.
