7574Health and Safety InformationTests for SAR are conducted using standard operatingpositions specified by the FCC with the phonetransmitting at its highest certified power level in alltested frequency bands. Although the SAR isdetermined at the highest certified power level, theactual SAR level of the phone while operation can bewell below the maximum value. This is because thephone is designed to operate at multiple power levelsso as to use only the power required to reach thenetwork. In general, the closer you are to a wirelessbase station antenna, the lower the power output.Before a phone model is available for sale to thepublic, it must be tested and certified to the FCC thatit does not exceed the limit established by thegovernment-adopted requirement for safe exposure.The tests are performed in positions and locations(e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required bythe FCC for each model. (Body-worn measurementsmay differ among phone models, depending uponavailable accessories and FCC requirements). Whilethere may be differences between the SAR levels ofvarious phones and at various positions, they all meetthe government requirement for safe exposure.For body worn operation, to maintain compliance withFCC RF exposure guidelines, use only Samsung-approved accessories. When carrying the phone whileit is on, use the specific Samsung-supplied orapproved carrying case, holster, or other body-wornaccessory.Use of non-Samsung-approved accessories mayviolate FCC RF exposure guidelines and should beavoided.For additional information concerning exposure toradio frequency signals, see the following websites:Federal Communications Commission (FCC)RF Safety program (select “Information on HumanExposure to RF Fields from Cellular and PCS RadioTransmitters”):http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafetyCellular Telecommunications IndustryAssociation (CTIA): http://www.wow-com.comWorld Health Organization (WHO)International Commission on Non-lonizing RadiationProtection (select Qs & As):http://www.who.int/emfUnited Kingdom, National RadiologicalProtection Board: http://www.nrpb.org.ukU.S.Food and Drug Administration (FDA)Center for Devices and Radiological Health:http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/consumer/Health and Safety Information
