Exposure
to
Radio
Frequency
(RF)
Signals
Certification
Information
(SAR)
Your
wireless
phone
is
a
radio
transmitter
and
receiver.
It
is
designed
and
manufactured
not
to
exceed
the
exposure
limits
for
radio
frequency
(RF)
energy
set
by
the
Federal
Communications
Commission
(FCC)
of
the
U.S.
government.
These
FCC
exposure
limits
are
derived
from
the
recommendations
of
two
expert
organizations,
the
National
Counsel
on
Radiation
Protection
and
Measurement
(NCRP)
and
the
Institute
of
Electrical
and
Electronics
Engineers
(IEEE).
In
both
cases,
the
recommendations
were
developed
by
scientific
and
engineering
experts
drawn
from
industry,
government,
and
academia
after
extensive
reviews
of
the
scientific
literature
related
to
the
biological
effects
of
RF
energy.
The
exposure
limit
set
by
the
FCC
for
wireless
mobile
phones
employs
a
unit
of
measurement
known
as
the
Specific
Absorption
Rate
(SAR).
The
SAR
is
a
measure
of
the
rate
of
absorption
of
RF
energy
by
the
human
body
expressed
in
units
of
watts
per
kilogram
(W/kg).
The
FCC
requires
wireless
phones
to
comply
with
a
safety
limit
of
1.6
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.
For
body
worn
operation,
this
model
phone
has
been
tested
and
meets
the
FCC
RF
exposure
guidelines
when
used
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.
