6 Important Safety Information

This device is capable of operating in Wi-Fi

™

mode in the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands. The FCC

requires that devices operating within 5.15-

5.25 GHz may only be used indoors, not

outside, in order to avoid interference with

Mobile Satellite Services (MSS). Therefore, this

device is restricted from being used outdoors

when operating in frequencies between 5.15-

5.25 GHz.

This section outlines the safety precautions

associated with using your Galaxy Tab. The

terms “GALAXY” or “mobile device” are used in

this section to refer to your Galaxy Tab. Read

this information before using your mobile

device.

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals

Although GALAXY is not a cell phone, it can

operate on the same network as cell phones

and can use the same Radio Frequency (RF)

signals to communicate with the network as a

cell phone. Therefore, although the following

information refers specifically to RF exposure

from wireless phones, it may apply similarly to

GALAXY when it is being used on a cell phone

network.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)

has published information for consumers

relating to Radio Frequency (RF) exposure from

wireless phones. The FDA publication includes

the following information:

Do cell phones pose a health hazard?

Many people are concerned that cell phone

radiation will cause cancer or other serious

health hazards. The weight of scientific

evidence has not linked cell phones with any

health problems.

Cell phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency

(RF) energy. Over the past 15 years, scientists

have conducted hundreds of studies looking at

the biological effects of the radio frequency

energy emitted by cell phones. While some

researchers have reported biological changes

associated with RF energy, these studies have

failed to be replicated. The majority of studies

published have failed to show an association

between exposure to radio frequency from a

cell phone and health problems.

The low levels of RF cell phones emit while in

use are in the microwave frequency range. They

also emit RF at substantially reduced time

intervals when in the stand-by mode. Whereas

high levels of RF can produce health effects (by

heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that

does not produce heating effects causes no

known adverse health effects.

The biological effects of radio frequency energy

should not be confused with the effects from

other types of electromagnetic energy.

Very high levels of electromagnetic energy,

such as is found in X-rays and gamma rays,

can ionize biological tissues. Ionization is a

process where electrons are stripped away from

their normal locations in atoms and molecules.

It can permanently damage biological tissues

including DNA, the genetic material.

The energy levels associated with radio

frequency energy, including both radio waves

and microwaves, are not great enough to cause

ionization of atoms and molecules. Therefore,

RF energy is a type of non-ionizing radiation.

Other types of non-ionizing radiation include

visible light, infrared radiation (heat), and other

forms of electromagnetic radiation with relatively

low frequencies.

While RF energy does not ionize particles, large

amounts can increase body temperatures and

cause tissue damage. Two areas of the body,

the eyes and the testes, are particularly

vulnerable to RF heating because there is

relatively little blood flow in them to carry away

excess heat.

Research Results to Date: Is there a connection

between RF and certain health problems?

The results of most studies conducted to date

say no. In addition, attempts to replicate and

confirm the few studies that have shown a

connection have failed.

The scientific community at large therefore

believes that the weight of scientific evidence

does not show an association between

exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) from cell

phones and adverse health outcomes. Still the

scientific community has supported additional

research to address gaps in knowledge. Some

of these studies are described below.

Interphone Study

Interphone is a large international study

designed to determine whether cell phones

increase the risk of head and neck cancer. A

report published in the International Journal of

Epidemiology (June, 2010) compared cell

phone usage for more than 5,000 people with

brain tumors (glioma and meningioma) and a

similar number of healthy controls.

Results of this study did NOT show that cell

phones caused brain cancer. In this study, most

people had no increased risk of brain cancer

from using cell phones. For people with the

heaviest use of cell phones (an average of

more than ½ hour per day, every day, for over

10 years) the study suggested a slight increase

in brain cancer. However, the authors

determined that biases and errors prevented

any conclusions being drawn from this data.

Additional information about Interphone can be

found at

http://www.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/pr/2010/pdfs/

pr200_E.pdf.

Interphone is the largest cell phone study to

date, but it did not answer all questions about

cell phone safety. Additional research is being

conducted around the world, and the FDA

continues to monitor developments in this field.

International Cohort Study on Mobile Phone Users

(COSMOS)

The COSMOS study aims to conduct long-term

health monitoring of a large group of people to

determine if there are any health issues linked

to long-term exposure to radio frequency

energy from cell phone use. The COSMOS

study will follow approximately 300,000 adult

cell phone users in Europe for 20 to 30 years.

Additional information about the COSMOS

study can be found at
