Section 1: Health and Safety Information
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.
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, this device is restricted from being used
outdoors when operating in frequencies between 5.15-5.25 GHz.
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.

Health and Safety Information 3
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.
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.
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 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.

The biological effects of radio frequency energy should not be confused with the effects from other
types of electromagnetic energy.
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 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.
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.
