input. Input characters by touching the on-screen keys with  
your finger or use speech recognition.  
Your tablet comes equipped with an orientation detector that

sideways (Landscape) orientation. This is useful when  
entering text.  
You can enable predictive text, to have the Samsung  
keyboard match your key touches to common words and  
displays them. The Personalization option learns from GMal,  
Facebok and Twitter. Log into these applications to enable  
the Samsung keyboard to learn from your text input.

Section 11: Health and Safety Information  
This device is capable of operating in Wi-Fi mode in the 2.4  
and 5 GHz bands. The FCC requires that devices operating  
within 5.15-5.25 GHz may only be used indoors, not outside,  
in order to avoid interference with Mobile Satellite Services  
(MSS). Therefore, do not use this device outside as a Wi-Fi  
hotspot or in Wi-Fi Direct mode outside when using the  
5.15-5.25 GHz band.  
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published  
information for consumers relating to Radio Frequency (RF)  
exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publication  
includes the following information:  
Do cell phones pose a health hazard?  
Many people are concerned that cell phone radiation will  
cause cancer or other serious health hazards. The weight of  
scientific evidence has not linked cell phones with any health  
problems.  
This section outlines the safety precautions associated with  
using your Galaxy Tab. The terms “GALAXY” or “mobile  
device” are used in this section to refer to your Galaxy Tab.  
Read this information before using your mobile device.  
Cell phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF) energy.  
Over the past 15 years, scientists have conducted hundreds  
of studies looking at the biological effects of the radio  
frequency energy emitted by cell phones. While some  
researchers have reported biological changes associated  
with RF energy, these studies have failed to be replicated.  
The majority of studies published have failed to show an  
association between exposure to radio frequency from a cell  
phone and health problems.  
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)  
Signals  
Although GALAXY is not a cell phone, it can operate on the  
same network as cell phones and can use the same Radio  
Frequency (RF) signals to communicate with the network as  
a cell phone. Therefore, although the following information  
refers specifically to RF exposure from wireless phones, it  
may apply similarly to GALAXY when it is being used on a cell  
phone network.  
The low levels of RF cell phones emit while in use are in the  
microwave frequency range. They also emit RF at  
substantially reduced time intervals when in the stand-by  
165  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
         
mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects  
(by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not  
produce heating effects causes no known adverse health  
effects.  
While RF energy does not ionize particles, large amounts can  
increase body temperatures and cause tissue damage. Two  
areas of the body, the eyes and the testes, are particularly  
vulnerable to RF heating because there is relatively little  
blood flow in them to carry away excess heat.  
The biological effects of radio frequency energy should not  
be confused with the effects from other types of  
electromagnetic energy.  
Research Results to Date: Is there a connection  
between RF and certain health problems?  
The results of most studies conducted to date say no. In  
addition, attempts to replicate and confirm the few studies  
that have shown a connection have failed.  
Very high levels of electromagnetic energy, such as is found  
in X-rays and gamma rays, can ionize biological tissues.  
Ionization is a process where electrons are stripped away  
from their normal locations in atoms and molecules. It can  
permanently damage biological tissues including DNA, the  
genetic material.  
The scientific community at large therefore believes that the  
weight of scientific evidence does not show an association  
between exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) from cell phones  
and adverse health outcomes. Still the scientific community  
has supported additional research to address gaps in  
knowledge. Some of these studies are described below.  
Interphone Study  
Interphone is a large international study designed to  
determine whether cell phones increase the risk of head and  
neck cancer. A report published in the International Journal  
of Epidemiology (June, 2010) compared cell phone usage for  
more than 5,000 people with brain tumors (glioma and  
meningioma) and a similar number of healthy controls.  
The energy levels associated with radio frequency energy,  
including both radio waves and microwaves, are not great  
enough to cause ionization of atoms and molecules.  
Therefore, RF energy is a type of non-ionizing radiation.  
Other types of non-ionizing radiation include visible light,  
infrared radiation (heat), and other forms of electromagnetic  
radiation with relatively low frequencies.

Results of this study did NOT show that cell phones caused  
brain cancer. In this study, most people had no increased risk  
of brain cancer from using cell phones. For people with the  
heaviest use of cell phones (an average of more than ½ hour  
per day, every day, for over 10 years) the study suggested a

Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)  
Program of the National Cancer Institute  
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) actively follows cancer  
statistics in the United States to detect any change in rates of  
new cases for brain cancer. If cell phones play a role in risk  
for brain cancer, rates should go up, because heavy cell  
phone use has been common for quite some time in the U.S.  
Between 1987 and 2005, the overall age-adjusted incidence  
of brain cancer did not increase. Additional information about

Cell Phone Industry Actions  
Reducing Exposure: Hands-Free Kits and Other  
Accessories  
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA  
regulatory actions, the FDA has urged the cell phone industry  
to take a number of steps, including the following:  
Steps to Reduce Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy  
If there is a risk from being exposed to radio frequency  
energy (RF) from cell phones - and at this point we do not  
know that there is - it is probably very small. But, if you are  
concerned about avoiding even potential risks, you can take  
a few simple steps to minimize your RF exposure.  
Support-needed research on possible biological effects of RF  
for the type of signal emitted by cell phones;  
Design cell phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to  
the user; and  
Reduce the amount of time spent using your cell phone;  
Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance between  
your head and the cell phone.  
Cooperate in providing users of cell phones with the current  
information on cell phone use and human health concerns.  
The FDA also is working with voluntary standard-setting  
bodies such as the Institute of Electrical and Electronics  
Engineers (IEEE), the International Commission on  
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), and others to  
assure that safety standards continue to adequately protect  
the public.  
Hands-Free Kits  
Hands-free kits may include audio or Bluetooth® headsets  
and various types of body-worn accessories such as  
belt-clips and holsters. Combinations of these can be used to  
reduce RF energy absorption from cell phones.  
Headsets can substantially reduce exposure because the  
phone is held away from the head in the user's hand or in  
approved body-worn accessories. Cell phones marketed in  
the U.S. are required to meet RF exposure compliance  
requirements when used against the head and against the  
body.  
Health and Safety Information

168  
 
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF  
emissions from cell phones, there is no reason to believe that  
hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free kits can be used for  
convenience and comfort. They are also required by law in  
many states if you want to use your phone while driving.  
Cell Phone Accessories that Claim to Shield the Head  
from RF Radiation  
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF  
emissions from cell phones, there is no reason to believe that  
accessories which claim to shield the head from those  
emissions reduce risks. Some products that claim to shield  
the user from RF absorption use special phone cases, while  
others involve nothing more than a metallic accessory  
attached to the phone. Studies have shown that these  
products generally do not work as advertised. Unlike  
“hands-free” kits, these so-called “shields” may interfere  
with proper operation of the phone. The phone may be forced  
to boost its power to compensate, leading to an increase in  
RF absorption.  
Children and Cell Phones  
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to any users  
of cell phones from RF exposure, including children and  
teenagers. The steps adults can take to reduce RF exposure  
apply to children and teenagers as well.  
Reduce the amount of time spent on the cell phone;  
Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance between  
the head and the cell phone.  
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have  
advised that children be discouraged from using cell phones  
at all. For example, The Stewart Report from the United  
Kingdom made such a recommendation in December 2000.  
In this report, a group of independent experts noted that no  
evidence exists that using a cell phone causes brain tumors  
or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit cell phone  
use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based  
on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists.  
Additional information on the safety of RF exposures from  
various sources can be obtained from the following  
organizations (updated 10/1/2010):

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)  
Certification Information  
Your wireless mobile device is a radio transmitter and  
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the  
exposure limits for Radio Frequency (RF) energy set by the  
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.  
Government.  
These FCC RF exposure limits are derived from the  
recommendations of two expert organizations: the National  
Council 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 industry,  
government, and academia after extensive reviews of the  
scientific literature related to the biological effects of RF  
energy.  
World Health Organization (WHO):

HomeBusinessandEntertainment/CellPhones/default.htm.  
The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile  
devices employs a unit of measurement known as the  
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is 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 devices to comply with a safety limit of 1.6  
watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).

The FCC SAR limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety  
to give additional protection to the public and to account for  
any variations in measurements.  
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with  
FCC RF exposure guidelines. The FCC has granted an  
Equipment Authorization for this mobile device with all  
reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC  
RF exposure guidelines. This tablethas a FCC ID number:  
A3LGTN5110 [Model Number: GT-N5110] and the specific  
SAR levels for this tablet can be found at the following FCC  
website:  
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating positions  
accepted by the FCC with the mobile device 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 mobile device while  
operating can be well below the maximum reported value.  
This is because the mobile device is designed to operate at  
multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to  
reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a  
wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output of  
the mobile device.

The SAR information for this device can also be found on  
Samsung’s website:  
http://www.samsung.com/sar

SAR information on this and other model mobile devices can  
be accessed online on the FCC's website through http://  
transition.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/sar.html. To find information that  
pertains to a particular model mobile device, this site uses  
the mobile device FCC ID number, which is usually printed  
somewhere on the case of the mobile device.  
Before a new model mobile device is available for sale to the  
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does  
not exceed the SAR limit established by the FCC. Tests for  
each model mobile device are performed in positions and  
locations (e.g. near the body) as required by the FCC.  
Once you have the FCC ID number for a particular mobile  
device, follow the instructions on the website and it should  
provide values for typical or maximum SAR for a particular  
mobile device. Additional SAR information can also be

Responsible Listening  
Caution! Avoid potential hearing loss  
.
You should follow some common sense recommendations  
when using any portable audio device:  
Damage to hearing occurs when a person is exposed to loud  
sounds over time. The risk of hearing loss increases as  
sound is played louder and for longer durations.  
Always turn the volume down before plugging the earphones into  
an audio source.  
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the  
most common cause of preventable hearing loss. Some  
scientific research suggests that using portable audio  
devices, such as portable music players and cell phones, at  
high volume settings for long durations may lead to  
Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest  
volume at which you can hear adequately.  
Be aware that you can adapt to higher volume settings over time,  
not realizing that the higher volume may be harmful to your  
hearing.

of this standard, contact the National Fire Protection  
Association.  
Do not turn on your device if it is wet. If your device is  
already on, turn it off and remove the battery immediately, if  
applicable (if the device will not turn off or you cannot

Cautions  
Any changes or modifications to your mobile device not  
expressly approved in this document could void your  
warranty for this equipment and void your authority to  
operate this equipment. Only use approved batteries,  
antennas, and chargers.  
Restricting Children's Access to Your  
Mobile Device  
Your mobile device is not a toy. Do not allow children to play  
with it because they could hurt themselves and others,  
damage the mobile device, or use services that increase your  
mobile device bill.  
The use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous  
and void the mobile device warranty if said accessories  
cause damage or a defect to the mobile device. Although  
your mobile device is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of  
equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting,  
bending, or sitting on it.  
Keep the mobile device and all its parts and accessories out  
of the reach of small children.

Check regularly that all wireless mobile device equipment in your  
vehicle is mounted and operating properly.  
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension  
or denial of network services to the offender, or legal action, or  
both.  
When using a headset in dry environments, static electricity can  
build up in the headset and cause a small quick static electrical  
shock. To minimize the risk of electrostatic discharge from the  
headset avoid using the headset in extremely dry environments or  
touch a grounded unpainted metal object to discharge static  
electricity before inserting the headset.  
While using your device, leave some lights on in the room and do  
not hold the screen too close to your eyes.  
Seizures or blackouts can occur when you are exposed to flashing  
lights while watching videos or playing games for extended  
periods. If you feel any discomfort, stop using the device  
immediately.  
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive  
materials in the same compartment as the mobile device, its  
parts, or accessories.  
Reduce risk of repetitive motion injuries. When you repetitively  
perform actions, such as pressing keys, drawing characters on a  
touch screen with your fingers, or playing games, you may  
experience occasional discomfort in your hands, neck, shoulders,  
or other parts of your body. When using your device for extended  
periods, hold the device with a relaxed grip, press the keys lightly,  
and take frequent breaks. If you continue to have discomfort  
during or after such use, stop use and see a physician.  
If your device has a camera flash or light, do not use the flash or  
light close to the eyes of people or pets. [122011]  
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag  
inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including installed  
or portable wireless equipment near or in the area over the air  
bag or in the air bag deployment area. If wireless equipment is  
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could  
result.  
Switch your mobile device off before boarding an aircraft. The use  
of wireless mobile devices in aircraft is illegal and may be  
dangerous to the aircraft's operation. Check with appropriate  
authorities before using any function of a mobile device while on  
an aircraft.

Warranty.  
What is the procedure for resolving disputes?  
For any arbitration in which your total damage claims,  
exclusive of attorney fees and expert witness fees, are  
$5,000.00 or less (“Small Claim”), the arbitrator may, if you  
prevail, award your reasonable attorney fees, expert witness  
fees and costs as part of any award, but may not grant  
SAMSUNG its attorney fees, expert witness fees or costs  
unless it is determined that the claim was brought in bad  
faith. In a Small Claim case, you shall be required to pay no  
more than half of the total administrative, facility and  
arbitrator fees, or $50.00 of such fees, whichever is less, and

the relief allowed by the applicable law. The arbitration shall  
be conducted according to the American Arbitration  
Association (AAA) Commercial Arbitration Rules applicable to  
consumer disputes. This arbitration provision is entered

Arbitration Association (AAA) Commercial Arbitration Rules  
applicable to consumer disputes. This arbitration provision is  
entered pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. The laws of  
the State of Texas, without reference to its choice of laws  
principles, shall govern the interpretation of the EULA and all  
disputes that are subject to this arbitration provision. The  
arbitrator shall decide all issues of interpretation and  
application of this arbitration provision and the EULA. For  
any arbitration in which your total damage claims, exclusive  
of attorney fees and expert witness fees, are $5,000.00 or  
less ("Small Claim"), the arbitrator may, if you prevail, award  
your reasonable attorney fees, expert witness fees and costs  
as part of any award, but may not grant Samsung Electronics  
Co. its attorney fees, expert witness fees or costs unless it is  
determined that the claim was brought in bad faith. In a  
Small Claim case, you shall be required to pay no more than  
half of the total administrative, facility and arbitrator fees, or  
$50.00 of such fees, whichever is less, and Samsung  
Electronics Co. shall pay the remainder of such fees.

Samsung Electronics Co.'s employees, representatives and  
affiliates if any such claim arises from the licensing or use of
