Section 1:
Health and Safety

This section outlines the safety
precautions associated with
using your device. The terms
"device" or "mobile device" are
used in this section to refer to
your Gear.

Read this information

before using your mobile device.

Caution!

Do not touch the Heart
Rate Sensor with your
finger when handling or
while in use for
measuring heart rate,
as this may affect
accuracy of the device
reading.

3

Caution!

If you feel discomfort
while using the device,
stop using it and
remove it. If your
device becomes hot to
the touch, please
remove it until it cools.

Note:

If there is sweat or liquid
placed on the charging
terminals, corrosion may
occur over time. It is
recommended that if
sweat/liquid is placed on
these terminals or
earbuds, you clean them
properly before charging
the device.

Health and Safety 4

Note:

When the Gear is synced
with a compatible
S Health app, you can use
additional features. These
additional features include
checking your exercise
records, and more.
The accuracy of the heart
rate sensor may be
diminished depending on
skin condition, or
measurement conditions
and surroundings. Take
heart rate measurements
when you are seated and
relaxed.

5

Caution!

The information
gathered from this
device, S Health, or
related software is not
intended for use in the
diagnosis of disease or
other conditions, or in
the cure, mitigation,
treatment or prevention
of disease.
The accuracy of the
information and data
provided by this device
and its related
software, including
heart rate readings,
may be affected by

Health and Safety 6

factors such as
environmental
conditions, skin
condition, specific
activity performed
while using/wearing
the device, settings of
the device, user
configuration/
user-provided
information, placement
of the sensor on the
body, and other
end-user interactions.
Please refer to the user

Note:

Do not look directly at the
heart rate sensor’s lights.
Doing so may impair your
vision.

Specific Absorption
Rate (SAR)
Certification
Information

Your wireless 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

9

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

Health and Safety 10

rate of absorption of RF energy
by the human body expressed
in units of watts per kilogram
(W/kg). For this device, the
FCC safety limit for

extremity SAR is 4.0 W/kg
(10g) and head SAR is 1.6 W/
kg (1g).

11

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
device transmitting at its
highest certified power level in
all tested frequency bands.

Health and Safety 12

In general, the closer you are
to a wireless base station
antenna, the lower the power
output of the device.

Before a new model device is
available for sale to the public,
it must be tested and certified

13

to the FCC that it does not
exceed the SAR limit
established by the FCC. Tests
for each model device are
performed in positions and
locations (e.g. at the ear and
worn on the body) as required
by the FCC.

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 device has the following

Health and Safety 14

FCC ID numbers: A3LSMR140R
(for the Right ear) and
A3LSMR140L (for the Left ear)
[Model Number: SM-R140] and
the specific SAR levels for this
device can be found at the
following FCC website:
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/

The SAR information for this
device can also be found on
Samsung’s website:
www.samsung.com/sar

SAR information on this and
other model devices can be
accessed online on the FCC's
website through

particular model, this site uses
the device FCC ID number
which is usually printed
somewhere on the case of the
device. Sometimes it may be
necessary to remove the
battery pack to find the
number. Once you have the
FCC ID number for a particular
device, follow the instructions
on the website and it should

maximum SAR for a particular
device. Additional SAR
