CC RF Exposure Information
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) of the United States with its action in Report and Order
FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for human
exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by
FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with
the safety standard previously set by both U.S. and international
standards bodies. The design of this phone complies with the
FCC guidelines and these international standards. Use only the
supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage
the phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations. Do not use
the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna
comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please
contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
Body-Worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations using the
optional belt-clip/holster placed 0.78 inches (2.0cm) from the
body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a
minimum separation distance of 0.78 inches (2.0cm) must be
maintained between the user’s body and the phone, including
the antenna, whether extended or retracted. The use of third-
party belt-clips/holsters with no metallic components that
provide the minimum separation distance of 0.78 inches
(2.0cm) can be used to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements.

October 31, 2001 SGH-Q105 9
The use of non-tested accessories or other body-worn operations
may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements and should
be avoided. Contact your local dealer for optional accessory
items.
Vehicle Mounted External Antenna (Optional, if available)
A minimum separation distance of 7.9 inches (20cm) must be
maintained Between a person and the vehicle mounted external
antenna to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements. For more
information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov
SAR Information & FCC ID Labeling
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES. Your
wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for
exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These
limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on standards that were developed by
independent scientific organizations through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include
a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure standard for
wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement know as
the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the
FCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone
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 phone while
operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because
the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to

10 SGH-Q105 October 31, 2001
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. Before a phone model is available for sale to
the public, it must be tested and certified to 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 value for
this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.53W/kg and
when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is
1.35W/kg . (Body-worn measurements differ among phone
models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR
levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet
the government requirement for safe exposure.The FCC has
granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with
all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC
RF emission 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 after searching on FCC
ID A3LSGHQ105.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can
be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry
Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com (see note).
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (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.
