Health and safety information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your wireless device 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
engineering experts drawn from industry, government,
The exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile
devices employs a unit of measurement known as the
the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human body
expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC
requires wireless devices 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 recommended operating
positions accepted by the FCC with the GALAXY
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined
of the GALAXY while operating can be well below the
maximum value. This is because the GALAXY 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 device is available for sale to the
it does not exceed the exposure limit established by
the FCC. Tests for each model GALAXY are performed in
positions and locations (e.g. near the body) as required
by the FCC.
For typical operations, this model GALAXY has been
tested and meets the FCC exposure guidelines.
Non-compliance with the above restrictions may result
in violation of FCC RF exposure guidelines.
SAR information on this and other model GALAXYs can
be viewed on-line at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/.
This site uses the FCC ID number A3LGTP1010
You can check the FCC ID on the rear case.
Once you have the FCC ID number for a particular GALAXY,
follow the instructions on the website and it should
provide values for typical or maximum SAR for
a particular GALAXY
SAR information can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/

Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in
any area and always switch your GALAXY
forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or
danger. When connecting the GALAXY or any accessory to
another device, read its user's guide for detailed safety
instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.
