SAFE™ (Samsung For Enterprise)
SAFE™: “SAFE™” (Samsung For Enterprise)
is a mark for a Samsung device which
has been tested against Samsung’s own
internal criteria for interoperability with
certain third party security-related solutions
for MDM and VPN. The testing includes field
testing with local network connection and
menu tree testing which tests functionality
of the solutions in conjunction with the
Samsung device. During the testing, the
device is tested with the security solutions
to see if the solutions work with the device
as described by the third party security
solution providers. The testing, for example,
includes field testing with local network
connection and menu tree testing which
tests functionality of the solutions in
conjunction with the Samsung device. For

Do you have questions about your Samsung
Mobile Device?
For 24 hour information and assistance, we
offer a new FAQ/ARS System (Automated
Response System) at:
www.samsung.com/us/support
This section outlines the safety precautions
associated with using your phone. The
terms “mobile device” or “cell phone” are

mobile device.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Certification Information
Your wireless 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,

8Important Health, Safety, and Warranty Information Important Health, Safety, and Warranty Information 9
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.
The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for
wireless mobile phones 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 phones 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.
SAR tests are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted 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 reported value.
This is because the phone 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 device.
Before a new model 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 phone are performed in
positions and locations (e.g. at the ear and
worn on the body) as required by the FCC.
For body-worn operation, this device has
been tested and meets FCC RF exposure
guidelines when used with an accessory

10 Important Health, Safety, and Warranty Information
that contains no metal and that positions
the mobile device a minimum of 1.5 cm
from the body. 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.
The maximum SAR values for this model
phone as reported to the FCC are:
Simultaneous Transmission Head:
1.17 W/Kg
Simultaneous Transmission Body-worn:
1.18 W/Kg
The SAR information for this device can also
be found on Samsung’s website:
www.samsung.com/sar
SAR information on this and other model
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, this site uses the device FCC ID
number which is usually printed somewhere
on the case of the device. Sometimes it may
be necessary to remove the battery pack
to find the number. Once you have the FCC
ID number for a particular device, follow the
instructions on the website and it should
provide values for typical or maximum
SAR for a particular phone. Additional SAR
information can also be obtained at
