Function Description

The Samsung SM-T365 is a mobile device designed for various functions, including communication, information access, and entertainment. It is equipped with standard mobile device components such as a power button, volume buttons, a home button, recent apps button, back button, and a multipurpose jack. The device is designed to be water and dust resistant, offering enhanced durability in various environments. It supports wireless connectivity, including WLAN, for accessing the internet and other network services. The device is intended for use in all European countries, with specific considerations for WLAN operation.

Usage Features

To begin using the device, users must first charge the battery. The charger should be kept close to an electric socket and easily accessible during charging. To turn on the device, the power button needs to be pressed and held for a few seconds. The device's layout includes clearly marked buttons for power, volume, home, recent apps, and back functions, facilitating intuitive navigation. The multipurpose jack allows for connection to various accessories.

Accessing the user manual and additional information is straightforward. Users can open the web browser on their device and select the bookmark for the user manual from the bookmarks list. Alternatively, they can visit www.samsung.com to view device information, the user manual, and more. It is important to note that the availability of the user manual may vary depending on the web browser or service provider.

The device's software and content may differ based on the region, service provider, or software version, and are subject to change without prior notice. This flexibility allows for regional customization and updates.

Maintenance Features

Maintaining the device's water and dust resistance is crucial for its longevity and performance. The back cover must be closed tightly to prevent water and dust from entering the device. An open or loose back cover can compromise the device's integrity and lead to damage. The rubber seal fitted to the back cover is a critical component for maintaining this resistance, and care should be taken to avoid damaging it when opening and closing the cover.

Users are advised to follow specific guidelines to ensure the device's water and dust resistance:

• Do not immerse the device in water deeper than 1 meter and keep it submerged for more than 30 minutes.
• Avoid exposing the device to water moving with force, such as ocean waves or waterfalls.
• Do not open the device's covers when it is in water or in very humid places, including swimming pools or bathrooms.
• Do not open the back cover with wet hands or when the device is wet.
• Ensure the rubber seal is free from debris, such as sand or dust, to prevent damage.
• Do not expose the device to salt water, ionized water, or soapy water.
• If the device is dropped or receives an impact, the back cover may loosen. Users must ensure it is properly aligned and tightly closed.
• If the device has been immersed in water or if the microphone or speaker is wet, sound clarity during calls may be affected. It is important to clean and dry the microphone and speaker with a dry cloth.
• If the device gets wet, it should be thoroughly dried with a clean, soft cloth.
• The water-resistant design may cause slight vibrations in certain conditions, especially at high volume levels. These vibrations are normal and do not impact performance.
• The touch screen and other features may not function properly if the device is used in water or other liquids.

The device has been tested in a controlled environment and certified to be water- and dust-resistant under specific conditions (IP67 classification: 15-35 °C, 86-106 kPa, 1 meter, 30 minutes). However, this classification does not guarantee imperviousness to water damage in all situations.

Safety Information

Safety is paramount when using the Samsung SM-T365. Users should read and adhere to all safety information to prevent injury, fire, or explosion. Comprehensive safety information can be accessed on the device by navigating to Settings → General → About device → Legal information → Safety information.

General Warnings:

• Use only manufacturer-approved batteries, chargers, accessories, and supplies.
• Avoid physical impact or damage to the device.
• Prevent the multipurpose jack and battery terminals from contacting conductive elements like metal or liquids.
• Store the device within a temperature range of 5 °C to 35 °C, avoiding very hot or very cold areas.
• Do not store the device near heaters, microwaves, cooking equipment, or high-pressure containers.
• Do not touch the charger or device with wet hands while charging.
• Avoid using the device outdoors during a thunderstorm.
• Turn off the device in potentially explosive environments.
• Comply with all safety warnings and regulations regarding mobile device usage while operating a vehicle.
• If the device is cracked, broken, or becomes very hot, discontinue use immediately and take it to a Samsung Service Centre.
• Do not allow children or animals to chew or suck the device.
• Do not poke eyes, ears, or other body parts with the device, or insert it into the mouth.
• If the device has a camera flash or light, do not use it close to the eyes of people or animals.

Hearing Damage Prevention:

To prevent possible hearing damage, avoid listening to sound at high volume for long periods when using a headset.

WLAN Operation:

The device uses a non-harmonized frequency and is intended for use in all European countries. While WLAN can be operated without restriction indoors, it cannot be operated outdoors.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Certification Information:

The device complies with international guidelines for exposure to radio waves. Users can view SAR certification information by going to Settings → General → About device → Legal information → Safety information. The device is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines, which include a substantial safety margin. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2.0 W/kg. For specific SAR values for other countries, users can visit www.samsung.com/sar and search for their region and device model number.

FCC Notice and Cautions:

The device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules, meaning it will not cause harmful interference and must accept any interference received. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with Class B digital device limits, providing reasonable protection against harmful interference in residential installations. If interference occurs, users are encouraged to reorient or relocate the receiving antenna, increase separation between equipment and receiver, connect the equipment to a different circuit, or consult a dealer/radio/TV technician.

The device may cause TV or radio interference if used in close proximity to receiving equipment, and the FCC may require discontinuation of use if interference cannot be eliminated. Vehicles using petroleum gas must comply with NFPA-58.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Samsung will void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Unauthorized accessories may cause damage and void the device warranty. The device is sturdy but can be broken, so avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on it.

The device supports 802.11a/n mode. For 802.11a/n devices operating in the 5.15 - 5.25 GHz frequency range, operations are restricted to indoors to reduce potential harmful interference for Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) in the US. If a WIFI network supports this mode, users should restrict WIFI use indoors to comply with federal regulations protecting Mobile Satellite Services.
