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
nes
es employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption
tion Rate (SAR).
R).. The SAR is
i 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
ess 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
onal protection to the public and to account
for any variations in measurements.
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating
operating positions accepted by the FCC
with the phone transmitting at its
s 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
operating can be well below the maximum value.
This is because the phone is designed to operat
operate at multiple power levels so as to
use only the power required to reach the netwo
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

Consumer Information on Wireless Phones
D
FT
FI
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
CC'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
e 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.
effects. Many studies of low level RF
exposures have not found any biological effects.
effects. Some studies have suggested that
some biological effects mayy 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
concerning the safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review
revie 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 haz
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:
 “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:
 “National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
D
FT
FI
 “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
ess phones. Base
thousands of times lower than those they can get from wireless
stations are thus not the primary subject of the safety questions discussed in tthis
document.
What are the results of the research done already?
The research done thus far has produced conflicting
onflicting results, and many studies have
suffered from flaws in their research methods.
hods. 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
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 conditio
conditions
h people use wireless phones, so we don't know with certainty what the
under which
results off such studies mean for human healt
health.
Three large epidemiology studies have been published since December 2000.
Between them, the studies inve
investigated any possible association between the use of
brain cancer, glioma, meningioma, or acoustic
wireless phones and primary brai
neuroma, tumors of the brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of
the studies
ies demonstrated tthe 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 time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the time tumors
develop - if they do - may be many, many years. The interpretation of
D
FT
FI
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 world. The

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
D
FT
FI
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 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
dless of whether they are used against
the head or against the body. Either configuration
ation should result in compliance with
the safety limit.
Do wireless phone accessories that claim to shield the head from RF radiation

kits, these so-called “shields”
may interfere with proper operation of the phone. The phone may be forced to boost
its power to compensate, leading to an incr
increase in RF absorption. In February 2002,
the Federal trade Commission (FTC) charged tw
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.
What about wireless phone interference
interf
with medical equipment?
Radio frequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can interact with some electronic
devices. For this reason, FDA helped devel
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 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
N
conduct testing to assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.

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

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.

FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
Regulations for Wireless Devices
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has established
requirements for digital wireless mobile devices to be compatible
with hearing aids and other assistive hearing devices.
When individuals employing some assistive hearing devices (hearing
aids and cochlear implants) use wireless mobile devices, they may
detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices
are more immune than others to this interference noise, and mobile
devices also vary in the amount of interference they generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for
wireless mobile devices to assist hearing device users find mobile
devices that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all
mobile devices have been rated. Mobile
devices that are rated have
obile

the rating on their box or a label located on the box.
FT
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the
user's hearing device and hearing
hearing loss. If your hearing device
happens to be vulnerable to interf
interference, you may not be able to
use a rated mobile device successfully. Tr
Trying out the mobile device
with your hearing devic
device is the best way to evaluate it for your
personal needs.
M-Ratings: Wireless mobile devices rated M3 or M4 meet FCC
requirements and are likely to generate less interference to
hearing devices than mobile devices that are not labeled. M4 is the
better/higher of the two ratings. M-ratings refer to enabling
acoustic coupling with hearing aids that do not operate in telecoil
mode.
ot

T-Ratings: Mobile devices rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements
and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices
than mobile devices that are not labeled. T4 is the better/higher of
the two ratings. T-ratings refer to enabling inductive coupling with
hearing aids operating in telecoil mode.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing aid manufacturer or
hearing health professional may help you find this rating. Higher
ratings mean that the hearing device is relatively immune to
interference noise.
Under the current industry standard, American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) C63.19, the hearing aid and wireless mobile
device rating values are added together to indicate
dicate ho
how
w usable
they are together. For example, if a hearing
ing aid meets the M2 level
rating and the wireless mobile device meets the M3 leve
level rating,
the sum of the two values equals M5..

Under the standard, this should pr
provide
ovide the hearing aid user with
normal use while using the hearing aid with the particular
wireless mobile device. A sum of 6 or more would indicate
excellent performance.
However, these are not guarantees that all users will be satisfied.
T ratings work similarly.

The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.
HAC for Newer Technologies
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for
some of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there may
be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have
not been tested yet for use with hearing aids.
