51Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) SignalsYour 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 exposure limits are derived from the recommendations of two expert organizations, the National Counsel on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the engineering experts drawn from industry, government, The exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobiledevices employs a unit of measurement known as the 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 exposure 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 recommendedoperating positions accepted by the FCC with the GALAXY tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined of the GALAXY while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the GALAXY 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.Before a new model device is available for sale to the it does not exceed the exposure limit established by the FCC. Tests for each model GALAXY are performed in positions and locations (e.g. near the body) as requiredby the FCC. Health and safety informationFor typical operations, this model GALAXY has been tested and meets the FCC exposure guidelines. Non-compliance with the above restrictions may result in violation of FCC RF exposure guidelines.SAR information on this and other model GALAXYs can be viewed on-line at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. This site uses the FCC ID number A3LGTP1010 You can check the FCC ID on the rear case. Once you have the FCC ID number for a particular GALAXY,follow the instructions on the website and it should provide values for typical or maximum SAR fora particular GALAXYSAR information can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/cgb/sar.Operating EnvironmentRemember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always switch your GALAXYforbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or danger. When connecting the GALAXY or any accessory to another device, read its user’s guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.
FCC Notice and Cautions FCC Notice 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. 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 from that to which the receiver is connected. - Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. The GALAXY may cause TV or radio interference if used in close proximity to receiving equipment. The FCC can require you to stop using the GALAXY if such interference cannot be eliminated. Vehicles using petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the National Fire Protection Association, One Battery march Park, Quincy, MA 02269, Attn: Publication Sales Division.
Cautions Changes or modifications made in the radio device, not expressly approved by Samsung, will void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Only use approved batteries, antennas and chargers. The use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the device warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the device. Although your device is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending or sitting on it. Within the 5.15–5.25 GHz band, UNII devices will be restricted to indoor operations to reduce any potential for harmful interference to co-channel MSS operations.
