SAR Information
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based
on the safety standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations
through periodic evaluation of scientific studies.
The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of
all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless phones employs a unit of measurement
known as Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.
The highest SAR values for this model phone were Head: 0.43 W/kg,
Body-worn: 0.73 W/kg.

chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for further details.
You can use the phone while the battery is charging, but doing so requires
additional charging time.

Verify the handset battery is properly installed before connecting the travel adapter. If
the battery is not properly installed and the travel adapter is connected, the handset
continuously power cycles and prevents proper operation.
Note:
This illustration shows both the correct method and the incorrect method for connecting the
charger. If you connect the charger incorrectly, you risk damaging the accessory port and
voiding the phone warranty.
Warning!:
If the adapter power plug is installed incorrectly, damage to the accessory port occurs
and voids the phone warranty.
2. Plug the adapter power plug into a standard AC wall outlet.
3. When charging is finished, unplug the adapter power plug from the AC wall
outlet, then disconnect the travel adapter connector from the phone.
Warning!:
Failure to unplug the travel adapter before removing the battery can cause damage to
the phone.
