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,

Health and safety information

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

For body worn operations, this model phone

has been testde and meets the FCC

exposure guidelines when used with a

Samsung accessory designated for this

product or when used with an accessroy that

contains no metal and that positons the

handset a minimum 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 A3LSGHP270.

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/

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 : GSM1900

Mode Head: 0.235W/Kg,

Body-worn:0.395W/Kg.
