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.

i925.book Page 5 Monday, January 21, 2013 9:29 AM

FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY
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.

Cell Phone Industry Actions
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA
regulatory actions, the FDA has urged the cell phone
industry to take a number of steps, including the following:
•
Support-needed research on possible biological effects of
RF for the type of signal emitted by cell phones;
•
Design cell phones in a wa y that minimizes any RF exposure
to the user; and
•
Cooperate in providing users of cell phones with the current
information on cell phone use and human health concerns.
The FDA also is working with voluntary standard-setting
bodies such as the Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE), the International Commission on
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), and others to
assure that safety standards continue to adequately protect
the public.

Reducing Exposure: Hands-Free Kits and Other Accessories
Steps to Reduce Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
If there is a risk from being exposed to radio frequency
energy (RF) from cell phones - and at this point we do not
know that there is - it is probably very small. But, if you are
concerned about avoiding even potential risks, you can
take a few simple steps to minimize your RF exposure.
•
Reduce the amount of time spent using your cell phone;
•
Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance
between your head and the cell phone.
Hands-Free Kits
Hands-free kits may include audio or Bluetooth® headsets
and various types of body-worn accessories such as
belt-clips and holsters. Combinations of these can be used
to reduce RF energy absorption from cell phones.
Headsets can substantially reduce exposure because the
phone is held away from the head in the user's hand or in
approved body-worn accessories. Cell phones marketed in
the U.S. are required to meet RF exposure compliance
requirements when used against the head and against the
body.
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF
emissions from cell phones, there is no reason to believe
that hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free kits can be
Health and Safety Information 9

used for convenience and comfort. They are also required
by law in many states if you want to use your phone while
driving.
Cell Phone Accessories that Claim to Shield the Head from RF Radiation
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF
emissions from cell phones, there is no reason to believe
that accessories which claim to shield the head from those
emissions reduce risks. Some products that claim to shield
the user from RF absorption use special phone cases,
while others involve nothing more than a metallic
accessory attached to the phone. Studies have shown that
these products generally do not work as advertised. Unlike
“hands-free” kits, these so-called “shields” may interfere
with proper operation of the phone. The phone may be
forced to boost its power to compensate, leading to an
increase in RF absorption.
Children and Cell Phones
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to any
users of cell phones from RF exposure, including children
and teenagers. The steps adults can take to reduce RF
exposure apply to children and teenagers as well.
•
Reduce the amount of time spent on the cell phone;
•
Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance
between the head and the cell phone.

Some groups sponsored by other national governments
have advised that children be discouraged from using cell
phones at all. For example, The Stewart Report from the
United Kingdom made such a recommendation in
December 2000. In this report, a group of independent
experts noted that no evidence exists that using a cell
phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their
recommendation to limit cell phone use by children was
strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific
evidence that any health hazard exists.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Certification Information
Your wireless mobile 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 RF exposure limits are derived from the
recommendations of two expert organizations: the National
Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP)
and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE). In both cases, 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 RF exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile
devices 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 devices to comply with a safety limit of
1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).
The FCC SAR 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 mobile device
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
mobile device while operating can be well below the
maximum reported value. This is because the mobile
device 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 of the mobile device.
Before a new model mobile device is available for sale to
the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it
does not exceed the SAR limit established by the FCC.

changes implemented in accordance with the Department
of Defense policy and the 2008 Federal Radio navigation
Plan (FRP). Changes may affect the performance of
location-based technology on your mobile device.
Your Location
Location-based information includes information that can
be used to determine the approximate location of a mobile
device. Mobile devices which are connected to a wireless
network transmit location-based information. Additionally,
if you use applications that require location-based
information (e.g. driving directions), such applications
transmit location-based information. The location-based
information may be shared with third-parties, including
your wireless service provider, applications providers,
Samsung, and other third-parties providing services.
Navigation
Maps, directions, and other navigation-data, including data
relating to your current location, may contain inaccurate or
incomplete data, and circumstances can and do change
over time. In some areas, complete information may not be
available. Therefore,
that the navigational instructions are consistent with what
you see before following them. All users should pay attention
to road conditions, closures, traffic, and all other factors that
may impact safe driving or walking. Always obey posted road
signs
