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”.

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

Therefore:

•

Always tell the emergency responder your location to the best of

your ability; and
