Notice
Cautions
Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly approved by Samsung
could void your warranty for this equipment, and void your authority to operate
this equipment. Only use approved batteries, antennas, and chargers. The use of
any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the phone warranty if
said accessories cause damage or a defect to the phone.
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be
broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on it.
Information to User
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of a Class B
digital device. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses,
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation; if this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
•
Reorient/relocate the receiving antenna.
•
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•
Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
•
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
certification information
Your device conforms to ISED (Innovation, Science and Economic Development
Canada) standards that limit human exposure to RF (radio frequency) 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 1.6 W/kg
(head and trunk) and 4.0 W/kg (limbs). More SAR
information can be accessed online on ISED’s website ic.gc.ca/eic/site/ceb-bhst.nsf/
eng/h_tt00084.html.
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.
Depending on the region or model, some devices are required to receive approval
from Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED)/the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). If your device is approved by ISED/FCC,
