SAR information on this and other model phones can
be viewed online at www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid. To find
information that pertains to a particular model phone,
this site uses the phone FCC ID number which is
usually printed somewhere on the case of the phone.
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 Web site 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.
Consumer information on wireless phones
e U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has
published a series of Questions and Answers for
consumers relating to radio frequency (RF) exposure
from wireless phones. e FDA publication includes
the following information:
What kinds of phones are the subject of this
update?
e term “wireless phone” refers here to hand-held
wireless phones with built-in antennas, often called
“cell,” “mobile,” or “PCS” phones. ese types of wireless
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. is 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. Body-worn
operations are restricted to Samsung-supplied, approved,
or non-Samsung designated accessories that have no
metal and must provide at least 1.5 cm separation
between the device, including its antenna (whether
extended or retracted) and the user’s body.
Non-compliance with the above restrictions may result
in violation of FCC RF exposure guidelines.
e FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for
this mobile phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated
as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
e maximum SAR values for this model phone as
reported to the FCC are:
