Only use approved batteries, antennas, and chargers. The use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the phone.Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on it.Information to UserThis equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of a Class B digital device. 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 N900W8_QSG_ENG.indb 34 17/08/2013 9:49:52 AM

35Safety informationinstructions, 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/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.Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification informationThe SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than the level reported to Industry Canada. This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone design and other factors. What is important to remember is that each phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not represent a variation in safety. All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values between different model phones do not mean variations in safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for use by the public. N900W8_QSG_ENG.indb 35 17/08/2013 9:49:52 AM

36Safety informationThe highest reported SAR values for the N900W8 are:Head : 0.46 W/kgBody : 1.08 W/kg This phone has been tested and meets RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions the mobile device a minimum of 1.0 cm from the body.Organizations such as the World Health Organization and the US Food and Drug Administration have suggested that if people are concerned and want to reduce their exposure, they could use a hands-free accessory to keep the wireless device away from the head and body during use, or reduce the amount of time spent using the device. For more information, visit www.samsung.com/sar and search for your device with the model number.Correct disposal of batteries in this productFor safe disposal options of your LiIon battery, contact your nearest service centre.Note:• Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.• For safety, do not handle a damaged or leaking LiIon battery.N900W8_QSG_ENG.indb 36 17/08/2013 9:49:52 AM
