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 worn on the body) as required by the FCC. Body-worn operations are
restricted to Samsung-supplied, approved, or non-Samsung designated accessories
that have no metal and must provide at least 1.5 cm separation between the device,
including its antenna (whether extended or retracted) and the user's body. Non-
compliance with the above restrictions may result in violation of FCC RF exposure
guidelines.

reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure
guidelines. The maximum SAR values for this model phone as reported to the FCC
are:

SAR information on this and other model phones can be viewed on-line at
www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid. To find information that pertains to a particular model

on the case of the phone. 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 SAR information
