watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC exposure
limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to
give additional protection to the public and to
account for any variations in measurements
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating
positions accepted 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.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 exposure limit
established by the FCC. Tests for each model phone
are performed in positions and locations (e.g. at the
ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC.
The highest SAR values for this model phone as
reported to the FCC are: Head:0.818 W/Kg, Body:
0.273 W/Kg.For body worn operation, this model
phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF
exposure guidelines whenused with a Samsung
accessory designated for this product or when used
with an accessory that contains no metal and that
positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the
body. Non-compliance with the above restrictions
may result in violation of FCC RF exposure
guidelines.
SAR information on this and other model phones can
be viewed on-line at www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid. This site
uses the phone FCC ID number, A3LSGHP940.
Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the
battery pack to find the number. Once you have the
FCC ID number for a particular phone, follow the
instructions on the website and it should provide
values for typical or maximum SAR for a particular
phone. Additional product specific SAR information
can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/cgb/sar.
