Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification  
information  
Your device conforms to European Union (EU) standards that limit  
human exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy emitted by radio and  
telecommunications equipment. These standards prevent the sale of  
mobile devices that exceed a maximum exposure level (known as the  
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 W/kg.  
During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was  
0.840 W/kg. In normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be much lower, as  
the device has been designed to emit only the RF energy necessary to  
transmit a signal to the nearest base station. By automatically emitting  
lower levels when possible, your device reduces your overall exposure  
to RF energy.  
The Declaration of Conformity statement at the back of this manual  
demonstrates your device’s compliance with the European Radio &  
Terminal Telecommunications Equipment (R&TTE) directive. For more  
information about the SAR and related EU standards, visit the Samsung  
website.
