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 positions and locations
(e.g. at the ear and as required by the FCC.
The highest SAR values
for this model phone
as reported to the FCC are: GSM850 Head:0.362
W/Kg, Body-worn: 0.458 W/Kg; GSM1900 Head:
0.222 W/Kg, Body-worn: 0.510 W/Kg.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, A3LSGHJ700I 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 SARinformation can also be
obtained at www.fcc.gov/cgb/sar.
Avoid interference with other electronic devices
Your phone emits radio frequency (RF) signals that
may interfere with unshielded or improperly shielded
electronic equipment, such as pacemakers, hearing
aids, medical devices, and other electronic devices in
homes or vehicles. Consult the manufacturers of your
electronic devices to solve any interference problems
you experience.
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
stry,overnment,
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 SARis 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.
Ensure maximum battery and charger life
Avoid charging batteries for more than a week, as
overcharging may shorten battery life.
Over time, unused batteries will discharge and must be
recharged before use.
Disconnect chargers from power sources when not
in use.
Use batteries only for their intended purpose.
Handle SIM cards and memory cards with care
• Do not remove a card while the phone is transferring
or accessing information, as this could result in loss of
data and/or damage to the card or phone.
• Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity, and
electrical noise from other devices.
• Frequent writing and erasing will shorten the life span
of memory cards.
• Do not touch gold-coloured contacts or terminals with
your fingers or metal objects. If dirty, wipe the card with
a soft cloth.
Ensure access to emergency services
Emergency calls from your phone may not be possible
in some areas or circumstances. Before travelling in
remote or undeveloped areas, plan an alternate method
of contacting emergency services personnel.
