Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification
information
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE
TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to
exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic
fields) recommended by international guidelines. The guidelines were
developed by an independent scientific organisation (ICNIRP) and include
a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2.0 W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
The highest SAR values under the ICNIRP guidelines for this device model are:
Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it was
recorded
Head SAR
0.733 W/kg
0.319 W/kg
Body-worn SAR
During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well below the
values stated above. This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to
minimise interference on the network, the operating power of your mobile
device is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the call.
The lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR value.
Safety precautions
134
A body-worn SAR test has been performed on this device with an approved
accessory or at a separation distance of 1.5 cm. To meet RF exposure guidelines
during body-worn operation, the device must be used with the approved
accessory or positioned at least 1.5 cm away from the body. If you use an
unapproved accessory, ensure that the accessory does not contain any metal
components and that it positions the device at least 1.5 cm away from the
body.
Organisations such as the World Health Organisation and the US Food and
Drug Administration have suggested that if people are concerned and want
to reduce their exposure, they could use a hands-free accessory to keep
the wireless device away from the head and body during use, or reduce the
amount of time spent using the device.
For more information, visit www.samsung.com/sar and search for your device
with the model number.
