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:

SAR values for European countries: The SAR values below are only for devices developed for use in European countries.

Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it was recorded

Head SAR	0.921 W/kg
Body-worn SAR	0.412 W/kg

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.

A body-worn SAR test has been performed on this device at a separation distance of 1.5 cm. To meet RF exposure guidelines during body-worn operation, the device must be positioned at least 1.5 cm away from the body.

Protect your hearing and ears when using a headset

•Excessive exposure to loud sounds can cause hearing damage.

• Exposure to loud sounds while walking may distract your attention and cause an accident.

•Always turn the volume down before plugging the earphones into an audio source and use only the minimum volume setting necessary to hear your conversation or music.

•In dry environments, static electricity can build up in the headset. Avoid using headsets in dry

environments or touch a metal object to discharge static electricity before connecting a headset to the device.

•Do not use a headset while driving or riding. Doing so may distract your attention and cause an accident, or may be illegal depending on your region.

•To prevent possible hearing damage when using a headset, do not listen to sound at high volume for long periods.

Use caution when using the device while walking or moving

•Always be aware of your surroundings to avoid injury to yourself or others.

•Make sure the headset cable does not become entangled in your arms or on nearby objects.

Do not paint or put stickers on your device

•Paint and stickers can clog moving parts and prevent proper operation.

•If you are allergic to paint or metal parts of the device, you may experience itching, eczema, or swelling of the skin. When this happens, stop using the device and consult your physician.

Do not use the device if it is cracked or broken

Broken glass or acrylic could cause injury to your hands and face. Take the device to a Samsung Service Centre to have it repaired.
