Health and safety information
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.
SAR information on
this and other
model phones can be
viewed on-line at
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/
.
Please use the phone FCC ID number for search,
(
A3LSMJ701M
T
).
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.
