Do you have questions about your
Samsung Mobile Device?

For 24 hour information and assistance, we
offer a new FAQ/ARS System (Automated
Response System) at:

www.samsung.com/us/support

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.

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.

Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information 7

Speciic Absorption Rate (SAR)
Certiication 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
scientiic and engineering experts drawn
from industry, government, and academia
after extensive reviews of the scientiic
literature related to the biological effects of
RF energy.

8 Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information

The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for
wireless mobile devices employs a unit
of measurement known as the Speciic
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 certiied power level in all tested
frequency bands. Although the SAR is

determined at the highest certiied 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 device is available for
sale to the public, it must be tested and
certiied 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.

Important Health, Safety and Warranty Information 9

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 a FCC ID number:
A3LSMT237P [Model Number: SM-T237P]
and the speciic SAR levels for this device
can be found at the following FCC website:

www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/.
The maximum SAR values for this model

device as reported to the FCC are:
Simultaneous Transmission Body-worn:

1.47 W/kg

The SAR information for this device can also
be found on Samsung’s website:

www.samsung.com/sar

SAR information on this and other mobile
devices can be accessed online on the
FCC’s website through http://transition.fcc.

gov/oet/rfsafety/sar.html

To ind information that pertains to a
particular model mobile 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:

FCC Part 15 Information to User

Pursuant to part 15.21 of the FCC Rules,
you are cautioned that changes or
modiications not expressly approved
by Samsung could void your authority to
operate the device.

This device complies with part 15 of the
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device
may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.

Note: This equipment has been tested

and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in
a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause
harmful interference to
radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the
following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.

• Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on
a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/TV technician for help.
