Health and safety information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Certification Information (SAR)
Your wireless phone 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 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 exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile
phones 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 phones 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 standard operating
positions accepted by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the
actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be
well below the maximum value. This is because the
phone 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 phone is available for sale to the
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it
does not exceed the exposure limit established by the
FCC. Tests for each model phone are performed in
39
Health and safety information
positions and locations (e.g. at the ear and worn on the
body) as required by the FCC.
SAR information can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/
cgb/sar.
The highest SAR values for this model phone as
reported to the FCC are:
GSM1900 Head: 0.610 W/Kg,Body-worn: 0.474 W/Kg.
Consumer Information on Wireless Phones
For body worn operation, this model phone has been
tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines
whenused with a Samsung accessory designated for
this product or when used with an accessory that
contains no metal and that positions the handset a
minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.
Non-compliance with the above restrictions may result
in violation of FCC RF exposure guidelines.
SAR information on this and other model phones can be
viewed on-line at www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid. This site uses
the phone FCC ID number, A3LSGHE830A. Sometimes it
may be necessary to remove the battery pack to find
the number. Once you have the FCC ID number for a
particular phone, follow the instructions on the website
and it should provide values for typical or maximum
SAR for a particular phone. Additional product specific

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has
published a series of Questions and Answers for
consumers relating to radio frequency (RF) exposure
from wireless phones. The FDA publication includes the
following information:
What kinds of phones are the subject of this
update?
The term wireless phone refers here to hand-held
wireless phones with built-in antennas, often called
“cell,” “mobile,” or “PCS” phones. These types of
wireless phones can expose the user to measurable
radio frequency energy (RF) because of the short
distance between the phone and the user's head. These
RF exposures are limited by Federal Communications
Commission safety guidelines that were developed with
the advice of FDA and other federal health and safety
agencies. When the phone is located at greater
distances from the user, the exposure to RF is
drastically lower because a person's RF exposure
decreases rapidly with increasing distance from the
source. The so-called “cordless phones,” which have a
base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house,
typically operate at far lower power levels, and thus
produce RF exposures well within the FCC's compliance
limits.
Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show that any
health problems are associated with using wireless
phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless
phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low
levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave
range while being used. They also emit very low levels
of RF 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. Many
studies of low level RF exposures have not found any
biological effects. Some studies have suggested that
some biological effects may occur, but such findings
have not been confirmed by additional research. In
some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in
reproducing those studies, or in determining the
reasons for inconsistent results.
What is FDA's role concerning the safety of
wireless phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of
radiation-emitting consumer products such as wireless
phones before they can be sold, as it does with new
drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has
authority to take action if wireless phones are shown to
emit radio frequency energy (RF) at a level that is
hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA could
require the manufacturers of wireless phones to notify
users of the health hazard and to repair, replace or
recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA
regulatory actions, FDA has urged the wireless phone
industry to take a number of steps, including the
following:
41
Health and safety information
•
•
•
“Support needed research into possible
biological effects of RF of the type emitted
by wireless phones;
“Design wireless phones in a way that
minimizes any RF exposure to the user that
is not necessary for device function; and
“Cooperate in providing users of wireless
phones with the best possible information
on possible effects of wireless phone use on
human health.
FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the
federal agencies that have responsibility for different
aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the
federal level. The following agencies belong to this
working group:
•
•
•
42
“National Institute for Occupational Safety
and Health
“Environmental Protection Agency
“Federal Communications Commission
•
•
“Occupational Safety and Health
Administration
“National Telecommunications and
Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some
interagency working group activities, as well.
FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless
phones with the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States
must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF
exposure. FCC relies on FDA and other health agencies
for safety questions about wireless phones.
FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless
phone networks rely upon. While these base stations
operate at higher power than do the wireless phones
themselves, the RF exposures that people get from
these base stations are typically thousands of times
lower than those they can get from wireless phones.
Base stations are thus not the primary subject of the
safety questions discussed in this document.
What are the results of the research done
already?
The research done thus far has produced conflicting
results, and many studies have suffered from flaws in
their research methods. Animal experiments
investigating the effects of radio frequency energy (RF)
exposures characteristic of wireless phones have
yielded conflicting results that often cannot be repeated
in other laboratories. A few animal studies, however,
have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate
the development of cancer in laboratory animals.
However, many of the studies that showed increased
tumor development used animals that had been
genetically engineered or treated with cancer-causing
chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to develop cancer in
absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the
animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day. These
conditions are not similar to the conditions under which
people use wireless phones, so we don't know with
certainty what the results of such studies mean for
human health.
Three large epidemiology studies have been published
since December 2000. Between them, the studies
investigated any possible association between the use
of wireless phones and primary brain cancer, glioma,
meningioma, or acoustic neuroma, tumors of the brain
or salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of
the studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful
health effects from wireless phones RF exposures.
However, none of the studies can answer questions
about long-term exposures, since the average period of
phone use in these studies was around three years.
What research is needed to decide whether RF
exposure from wireless phones poses a health
risk?
A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological
studies of people actually using wireless phones would
provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetime
animal exposure studies could be completed in a few
years. However, very large numbers of animals would
be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer
promoting effect if one exists. Epidemiological studies
can provide data that is directly applicable to human
populations, but ten or more years' follow-up may be
needed to provide answers about some health effects,
such as cancer. This is because the interval between the
43
Health and safety information
time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the
time tumors develop - if they do - may be many, many
years. The interpretation of epidemiological studies is
hampered by difficulties in measuring actual RF
exposure during day-to-day use of wireless phones.
Many factors affect this measurement, such as the
angle at which the phone is held, or which model of
phone is used.
What is FDA doing to find out more about the
possible health effects of wireless phone RF?
FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology
Program and with groups of investigators around the
world to ensure that high priority animal studies are
conducted to address important questions about the
effects of exposure to radio frequency energy (RF).
FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health
Organization international Electromagnetic Fields (EMF)
Project since its inception in 1996. An influential result
of this work has been the development of a detailed
agenda of research needs that has driven the
establishment of new research programs around the
44
world. The Project has also helped develop a series of
public information documents on EMF issues.
FDA and Cellular Telecommunications & Internet
Association (CTIA) have a formal Cooperative Research
and Development Agreement (CRADA) to do research
on wireless phone safety. FDA provides the scientific
oversight, obtaining input from experts in government,
industry, and academic organizations. CTIA-funded
research is conducted through contracts to independent
investigators. The initial research will include both
laboratory studies and studies of wireless phone users.
The CRADA will also include a broad assessment of
additional research needs in the context of the latest
research developments around the world.
What steps can I take to reduce my exposure
to radio frequency energy from my wireless
phone?
If there is a risk from these products - 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
exposure to radio frequency energy (RF). Since time is
a key factor in how much exposure a person receives,
reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless
phone will reduce RF exposure.
•
“If you must conduct extended
conversations by wireless phone every day,
you could place more distance between
your body and the source of the RF, since
the exposure level drops off dramatically
with distance. For example, you could use a
headset and carry the wireless phone away
from your body or use a wireless phone
connected to a remote antenna.
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that
wireless phones are harmful. But if you are concerned
about the RF exposure from these products, you can
use measures like those described above to reduce your
RF exposure from wireless phone use.
What about children using wireless phones?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users
of wireless phones, including children and teenagers. If
you want to take steps to lower exposure to radio
frequency energy (RF), the measures described above
would apply to children and teenagers using wireless
phones. Reducing the time of wireless phone use and
increasing the distance between the user and the RF
source will reduce RF exposure.
Some groups sponsored by other national governments
have advised that children be discouraged from using
wireless phones at all. For example, the government in
the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such
a recommendation in December 2000. They noted that
no evidence exists that using a wireless phone causes
brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation
to limit wireless phone use by children was strictly
precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence
that any health hazard exists.
Do hands-free kits for wireless phones reduce
risks from exposure to RF emissions?
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF
emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to
believe that hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free
kits can be used with wireless phones for convenience
45
Health and safety information
and comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of
RF energy in the head because the phone, which is the
source of the RF emissions, will not be placed against
the head. On the other hand, if the phone is mounted
against the waist or other part of the body during use,
then that part of the body will absorb more RF energy.
Wireless phones marketed in the U.S. are required to
meet safety requirements regardless of whether they
are used against the head or against the body. Either
configuration should result in compliance with the
safety limit.
“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. In
February 2002, the Federal trade Commission (FTC)
charged two companies that sold devices that claimed
to protect wireless phone users from radiation with
making false and unsubstantiated claims. According to
FTC, these defendants lacked a reasonable basis to
substantiate their claim.
Do wireless phone accessories that claim to
shield the head from RF radiation work?
Radio frequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can
interact with some electronic devices. For this reason,
FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure
electromagnetic interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac
pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless telephones.
This test method is now part of a standard sponsored
by the Association for the Advancement of Medical
instrumentation (AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by
FDA, medical device manufacturers, and many other
groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will
allow manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF
emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to
believe that accessories that 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 “hand-free” kits, these so-called
46
What about wireless phone interference with
medical equipment?
and defibrillators are safe from wireless phone EMI. FDA
has tested wireless phones and helped develop a
voluntary standard sponsored by the Institute of
Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This
standard specifies test methods and performance
requirements for hearing aids and wireless phones so
that no interference occurs when a person uses a
compatible phone and a compatible hearing aid at the
same time. This standard was approved by the IEEE in
2000.
FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for
possible interactions with other medical devices. Should
harmful interference be found to occur, FDA will conduct
testing to assess the interference and work to resolve
the problem.

Road Safety
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to
communicate by voice, almost anywhere, anytime. But
an important responsibility accompanies the benefits of
wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility.
When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of a
car, practice good common sense and remember the
following tips:
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its
features, such as speed dial and redial. If
available, these features help you to place
your call without taking your attention off
the road.
2. When available, use a hands-free device. If
possible, add an additional layer of
convenience and safety to your wireless
phone with one of the many hands free
accessories available today.
48
3. Position your wireless phone within easy
reach. Be able to access your wireless
phone without removing your eyes from the
road. If you get an incoming call at an
inconvenient time, let your voice mail
answer it for you.
4. Let the person you are speaking with know
you are driving; if necessary, suspend the
call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather
conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice and even
heavy traffic can be hazardous.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone
numbers while driving. Jotting down a “to
do” list or flipping through your address
book takes attention away from your
primary responsibility, driving safely.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if
possible, place calls when you are not
moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to
plan calls when your car will be stationary.
If you need to make a call while moving,
dial only a few numbers, check the road and
your mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional
conversations that may be distracting. Make
people you are talking with aware you are
driving and suspend conversations that
have the potential to divert your attention
from the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help.
Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency number
in the case of fire, traffic accident or
medical emergencies. Remember, it is a free
call on your wireless phone!
10. Call roadside assistance or a special non-
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in
emergencies. If you see an auto accident,
crime in progress or other serious
emergency where lives are in danger, call 91-1 or other local emergency number, as
you would want others to do for you.

Association
emergency wireless assistance number
when necessary. If you see a broken-down
vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken
traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where
no one appears injured, or a vehicle you
know to be stolen, call roadside assistance
or other special non-emergency number.

Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in
any area and always switch your phone off whenever it
is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference
49
Health and safety information
or danger. When connecting the phone or any accessory
to another device, read its user's guide for detailed
safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible
products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment,
users are advised that for the satisfactory operation of
the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is
recommended that the equipment should only be used
in the normal operating position (held to your ear with
the antenna pointing over your shoulder).
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic
Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from
radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded against the
RF signals from your wireless phone. Consult the
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
distance of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a
50
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
•
•
•
should always keep the phone more than
15 cm
(6 inches) from their pacemaker when
the phone is switched on.
should not carry the phone in a breast
pocket.
should use the ear opposite the
pacemaker to minimize potential
interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, switch your
phone off immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you
may wish to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to
discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical devices, consult
the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information. Switch your phone off in health care
facilities when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities
may be using equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor
vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its
representative regarding your vehicle. You should also
consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has
been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Switch your phone off in any facility where
posted notices require you to do so.
Potentially Explosive Environments
Switch your phone off when in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and
instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Users are advised to switch the phone off while at a
refueling point (service station). Users are reminded of
the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution
areas), chemical plants or where blasting operations
are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often
but not always clearly marked. They include below deck
on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles
51
Health and safety information
using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or
butane), areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders, and any
other area where you would normally be advised to turn
off your vehicle engine.

present location (for example, 911 or other
official emergency number). Emergency
numbers vary by location.
3. Press
Emergency Calls
If certain features are in use (call barring, for example),
you may first need to deactivate those features before
you can make an emergency call. Consult this
document and your local cellular service provider.
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using
radio signals, wireless and landline networks as well as
user programmed functions, which cannot guarantee
connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should
never rely solely on any wireless phone for essential
communications (medical emergencies, for example).
Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone
must be switched on and in a service area with
adequate signal strength. Emergency calls may not be
possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain
network services and/or phone features are in use.
Check with local service providers.
To make an emergency call:
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.
52
When making an emergency call, remember to give all
the necessary information as accurately as possible.
Remember that your phone may be the only means of
communication at the scene of an accident; do not cut
off the call until given permission to do so.
Restricting Children's access to your Phone
Your phone is not a toy. Children should not be allowed
to play with it because they could hurt themselves and
others, damage the phone or make calls that increase
your phone bill.

Product Performance
Getting the Most Out of Your Signal Reception
The quality of each call you make or receive depends on
the signal strength in your area. Your phone informs
you of the current signal strength by displaying a
number of bars next to the signal strength icon. The
more bars displayed, the stronger the signal.
If you're inside a building, being near a window may
give you better reception.
Understanding the Power Save Feature
If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes
of searching, a Power Save feature is automatically
activated. If your phone is active, it periodically
rechecks service availability or you can check it yourself
by pressing any key.
Anytime the Power Save feature is activated, a
message displays on the screen. When a signal is
found, your phone returns to standby mode.
Understanding How Your Phone Operates
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver.
When it's turned on, it receives and transmits radio
frequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the
system handling your call controls the power level. This
power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in
digital mode.
Maintaining Your Phone's Peak Performance
For the best care of your phone, only authorized
personnel should service your phone and accessories.
Faulty service may void the warranty.

charges. Not all features are available for purchase or
use in all areas. Downloadable Ring Tones may be
available at an additional cost. Other conditions and
restrictions may apply. See your service provider for
additional information.
Battery Standby and Talk Time
Standby and talk times will vary depending on phone
usage patterns and conditions. Battery power
consumption depends on factors such as network
configuration, signal strength, operating temperature,
features selected, frequency of calls, and voice, data,
and other application usage patterns.

•
Many services and features are network dependent and
may require additional subscription and/or usage
•
Never use any charger or battery that is
damaged in any way.
Use the battery only for its intended
purpose.

standby time are greatly affected by the
signal strength on the cellular network and
the parameters set by the network operator.
Battery charging time depends on the
remaining battery charge and the type of
battery and charger used. The battery can
be charged and discharged hundreds of
times, but it will gradually wear out. When
the operation time (talk time and standby
time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is
time to buy a new battery.
If left unused, a fully charged battery will
discharge itself over time.
Use only Samsung-approved batteries and
recharge your battery only with Samsungapproved chargers. When a charger is not
in use, disconnect it from the power source.
Do not leave the battery connected to a
charger for more than a week, since
overcharging may shorten its life.

Extreme temperatures will affect the
charging capacity of your battery: it may
require cooling or warming first.
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold
places, such as in a car in summer or winter
conditions, as you will reduce the capacity
and lifetime of the battery. Always try to
keep the battery at room temperature. A
phone with a hot or cold battery may
temporarily not work, even when the
battery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are
particularly affected by temperatures below
0 °C (32 °F).
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental
short- circuiting can occur when a metallic
object (coin, clip or pen) causes a direct
connection between the + and - terminals
of the battery (metal strips on the battery),
for example when you carry a spare battery
in a pocket or bag. Short-circuiting the

terminals may damage the battery or the
object causing the short-circuiting.
Dispose of used batteries in accordance
with local regulations. In some areas, the
disposal of batteries in household or
business trash may be prohibited. For safe
disposal options for Li-Ion batteries, contact
your nearest Samsung authorized service
center. Always recycle. Do not dispose of
batteries in a fire.

obligations and allow you to enjoy this product for many
years.
•
58
Keep the phone and all its parts and
accessories out of the reach of small
children.
•
Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity
and liquids contain minerals that will
corrode electronic circuits.
Do not use the phone with a wet hand.
Doing so may cause an electric shock to you
or damage to the phone.
Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty
areas, as its moving parts may be
damaged.
Do not store the phone in hot areas. High
temperatures can shorten the life of
electronic devices, damage batteries, and
warp or melt certain plastics.
Do not store the phone in cold areas. When
the phone warms up to its normal operating
temperature, moisture can form inside the
phone, which may damage the phone's
electronic circuit boards.
