Note:
In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one
gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for
any variations in measurements.
Before a new model phone is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified by the FCC that it does not
exceed the limit established by the government adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in
positions and locations(e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR
values of this model phone as reported to FCC are:
GSM850
Head: 0.412 W/Kg Body worn: 1.07 W/Kg
GSM1900
Head: 0.307 W/Kg Body worn: 0.812 W/Kg
WCDMA
Head: 0.547 W/Kg Body worn: 0.804 W/Kg
Body-worn operations are restricted to Samsung-supplied, approved or non-Samsung designated accessories that have
no metal and must provide at least 1.5cm separation between the device, including its antenna whether extended or
retracted, and the user’s body. Non-compliance to the above restrictions may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can
be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid.

A Guide to Safe and Responsible Wireless Phone Use
Tens of millions of people in North America today take advantage of the unique combination of convenience, safety and
value delivered by the wireless telephone. Quite simply, the wireless phone gives people the powerful ability to
communicate by voice-almost anywhere, anytime with the boss, with a client, with the kids, with emergency personnel
or even with the police. Each year, North Americans make billions of calls from their wireless phones, and the numbers
are rapidly growing.
