Section 1: Health and Safety Information
This section outlines the safety precautions associated
with using your tablet. The terms “tablet”, “device”, or
“mobile device” are used in this section to refer to your
device.
Read this information before using your mobile
device.
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.

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Although your device 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 your device
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.
Health and Safety Information 3
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
4
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:
http://www.ukcosmos.org/index.html
.
Risk of Brain Cancer from Exposure to Radio
Frequency Fields in Childhood and Adolescence
(MOBI-KIDS)
MOBI-KIDS is an international study investigating the
relationship between exposure to radio frequency energy
from communication technologies including cell phones
and brain cancer in young people. This is an international
multi-center study involving 14 European and
non-European countries. Additional information about
MOBI-KIDS can be found at:
http://www.creal.cat/programes-recerca/en_projectes-creal/
view.php?ID=39.
Surveillance, Epidemiolog y, and End Results (SEER)
Program of the National Cancer Institute
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) actively follows cancer
statistics in the United States to detect any change in
rates of new cases for brain cancer. If cell phones play a
role in risk for brain cancer, rates should go up, because
Health and Safety Information 5
heavy cell phone use has been common for quite some
time in the U.S. Between 1987 and 2005, the overall
age-adjusted incidence of brain cancer did not increase.
Additional information about SEER can be found at:
http://seer.cancer.gov/
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 way 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
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.
Health and Safety Information 7
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
Health and Safety Information 9
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.
Tests for each model mobile device are performed in
positions and locations (e.g. near the body) as required by
the FCC.
For typical operations, this mobile device has been tested
and meets FCC SAR guidelines.
10
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with
FCC RF exposure guidelines. The FCC has granted an
Equipment Authorization for this mobile device with all
reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the
FCC RF exposure guidelines.
This tablet has a FCC ID number: A3LSGHI467 [Model
Number: SGH-I467 and the specific SAR levels for this
tablet can be found at the following FCC website:
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/
The SAR information for this device can also be found on
Samsung’s website:
http://www.samsung.com/sar
SAR information on this and other model mobile devices
can be accessed online on the FCC's website through

. To find
device, this site uses the mobile device FCC ID number,
which is usually printed somewhere on the case of the
mobile device.
Once you have the FCC ID number for a particular mobile
device, follow the instructions on the website and it
should provide values for typical or maximum SAR for a
particular mobile device. Additional SAR information can
also be obtained at
