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.  
8
SGH-Q105  
October 31, 2001  
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  
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.  
Note: The URL http://phonefacts.net may be used in place of  
http://www.wow-com for direct access to SAR information.

The use of any other power accessory will  
invalidate any approval or warranty applying to the  
phone, and may be dangerous.  
When you disconnect the power cord of any  
accessory, grasp and pull the connector, not the  
cord.  
It is extremely important that only genuine  
Samsung authorized accessories be utilized with  
your Samsung phone. This is because accessories  
might appear to be a perfect match, and labeled  
suitable for your Samsung phone, but they can  
charge at different current rates. The current  
provided through the accessory may not match the  
current that is required by your Samsung phone  
and the result of using an unauthorized accessory  
may be a battery or phone melt down. Your  
warranty of course, would be null and void.

Understanding Signal Strength  
Usage Guidelines:  
Performance and Safety  
Understanding Signal Strength  
The quality of each call you make or receive, is  
dependent upon the signal strength in your area.  
Your phone informs you of the current signal  
strength by displaying a icon. The more bars  
displayed, the stronger the signal. The signal  
strength indicator (  
) displays in the upper  
left corner of your display screen.  
Specifications are Subject to Change  
The information contained in this manual is  
believed to be correct at the time of printing,  
however, Samsung reserves the right to change or  
modify any of the specifications without notice or  
obligation to update existing units.  
Exposure To Radio Frequency  
Signals  
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low  
power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is  
ON, it receives and also transmits radio frequency  
(RF) signals  
In August, 1996. the Federal Communications  
Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposer  
guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless  
phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the  
safety standards previously set by both U.S. and  
international standards bodies:  
• ANSI C95.1 (1992)  
• NCRP Report 86 (1986)  
• ICNIRP (1996)  
August 31, 2001

Those standards were based on comprehensive  
and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific  
literature. For example, over 120 scientists,  
engineers, and physicians from universities,  
government health agencies, and industry  
reviewed the available body of research to develop  
the ANSI standard (C95.1).  
The design of your phone complies with the FCC  
guidelines (and those standards).  
Antenna Care  
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement  
antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications,  
or attachments could damage the phone and may  
violate FCC regulations.  
Phone Operation  
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you  
would any other telephone with the antenna  
pointed up and over your shoulder.  
Operating a Motor Vehicle  
Check the laws and regulations on the use of  
wireless telephones in the areas where you drive.  
Always obey them. Also, if using your phone while  
driving, please:  
• Give full attention to driving - driving safely  
is your first responsibility.  
• Use hands free operation, if available.  
Electronic Devices  
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded  
from RF signals. However, certain electronic  
equipment may not be shielded against the RF  
signals from your wireless phone.

Pacemakers  
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association  
recommends that a minimum separation of six  
(6”) inches be maintained between a handheld  
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential  
interference with the pacemaker. These  
recommendations are consistent with the  
independent research by and recommendations of  
Wireless Technology Research.  
Persons with pacemakers:  
• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more  
than six inches from their pacemaker when  
the phone is turned ON;  
• Should not carry the phone in a breast  
pocket;  
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker  
to minimize the potential for interference;  
• If you have any reason to suspect that  
interference is taking place, turn your  
phone OFF immediately.  
Other Medical Devices  
If you use any other personal medical device,  
consult the manufacturer of your device to  
determine if they are adequately shielded from  
external RF energy. Your physician may be able to  
assist you in obtaining this information.  
Turn your phone Off in health care facilities when  
any regulations posted in these areas instruct you  
to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be  
using equipment that could be sensitive to  
external RF energy.

Posted Facilities  
Turn your phone Off in any facility where posted  
notices so require.  
Aircraft  
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while  
in the air. Switch Off your phone before boarding  
an aircraft.  
Blasting Areas  
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn  
your phone Off when in a “blasting area” or in  
areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all  
signs and instructions.  
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres  
Turn your phone Off when in any area with a  
potential explosive atmosphere and obey all signs  
and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause  
an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or  
even death.  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are  
often, but not always clearly marked. They include  
fueling areas such as gasoline stations; below deck  
on boats; fuel or chemical transfers or storage  
facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas  
(such as propane or butane); areas where the air  
contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust,  
or metal powders; any other area where you would  
normally be advised to turn Off your vehicle  
engine.

Safety Information  
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center  
for Devices and Radiological Health Consumer  
Update on Mobile Phones  
FDA has been receiving inquiries about the safety  
of mobile phones, including cellular phones and  
PCS phones. The following summarizes what is  
known--and what remains unknown--about  
whether these products can pose a hazard to  
health, and what can be done to minimize any  
potential risk. This information may be used to  
respond to questions.  
Why the concern?  
Mobile phones emit low levels of radio frequency  
energy (i.e., radio frequency radiation) in the  
microwave range while being used. They also emit  
very low levels of radio frequency energy (RF),  
considered non-significant, when in the stand-by  
mode. It is well known that high levels of RF can  
produce biological damage through heating  
effects (this is how your microwave oven is able to  
cook food). However, it is not known whether, to  
what extent, or through what mechanism, lower  
levels of RF might cause adverse health effects as  
106  
SGH-Q105  
August 31, 2001  
   
Owner’s Record  
well. Although some research has been done to  
address these questions, no clear picture of the  
biological effects of this type of radiation has  
emerged to date. Thus, the available science does  
not allow us to conclude that mobile phones are  
absolutely safe, or that they are unsafe. However,  
the available scientific evidence does not  
demonstrate any adverse health effects associated  
with the use of mobile phones.  
What kinds of phones are in question?  
Questions have been raised about hand-held  
mobile phones, the kind that have a built-in  
antenna that is positioned close to the user’s head  
during normal telephone conversation. These  
types of mobile phones are of concern because of  
the short distance between the phone’s antenna--  
the primary source of the RF--and the person’s  
head. The exposure to RF from mobile phones in  
which the antenna is located at greater distances  
from the user (on the outside of a car, for  
example) is drastically lower than that from hand-  
held phones, because a person’s RF exposure  
decreases rapidly with distance from the source.  
The safety of so-called “cordless phones,” which  
have a base unit connected to the telephone  
wiring in a house and which operate at far lower  
power levels and frequencies, has not been  
questioned.  
How much evidence is there that hand-held  
mobile phones might be harmful?  
Briefly, there is not enough evidence to know for  
sure, either way; however, research efforts are on-  
going. The existing scientific evidence is  
conflicting and many of the studies that have been  
done to date have suffered from flaws in their  
August 31, 2001  
SGH-Q105  
107  
Safety Information  
SGH-Q105 User Manual  
research methods. Animal experiments  
investigating the effects of RF exposures  
characteristic of mobile phones have yielded  
conflicting results. A few animal studies, however,  
have suggested that low levels of RF could  
accelerate the development of cancer in  
laboratory animals. In one study, mice genetically  
altered to be predisposed to developing one type  
of cancer developed more than twice as many such  
cancers when they were exposed to RF energy  
compared to controls. There is much uncertainty  
among scientists about whether results obtained  
from animal studies apply to the use of mobile  
phones. First, it is uncertain how to apply the  
results obtained in rats and mice to humans.  
Second, many of the studies that showed increased  
tumor development used animals that had already  
been treated with cancer-causing chemicals, and  
other studies exposed the animals to the RF  
virtually continuously--up to 22 hours per day.  
For the past five years in the United States, the  
mobile phone industry has supported research  
into the safety of mobile phones. This research has  
resulted in two findings in particular that merit  
additional study:  
1.In a hospital-based, case-control study,  
researchers looked for an association between  
mobile phone use and either glioma (a type of  
brain cancer) or acoustic neuroma (a benign  
tumor of the nerve sheath). No statistically  
significant association was found between mobile  
phone use and acoustic neuroma. There was also  
no association between mobile phone use and  
gliomas when all types of types of gliomas were  
considered together. It should be noted that the  
108  
SGH-Q105  
August 31, 2001  
Owner’s Record  
average length of mobile phone exposure in this  
study was less than three years.  
When 20 types of glioma were considered  
separately, however, an association was found  
between mobile phone use and one rare type of  
glioma, neuroepithelliomatous tumors. It is  
possible with multiple comparisons of the same  
sample that this association occurred by chance.  
Moreover, the risk did not increase with how often  
the mobile phone was used, or the length of the  
calls. In fact, the risk actually decreased with  
cumulative hours of mobile phone use. Most  
cancer causing agents increase risk with increased  
exposure. An ongoing study of brain cancers by  
the National Cancer Institute is expected to bear  
on the accuracy and repeatability of these results.  
2.Researchers conducted a large battery of  
laboratory tests to assess the effects of exposure to  
mobile phone RF on genetic material. These  
included tests for several kinds of abnormalities,  
including mutations, chromosomal aberrations,  
DNA strand breaks, and structural changes in the  
genetic material of blood cells called lymphocytes.  
None of the tests showed any effect of the RF  
except for the micronucleus assay, which detects  
structural effects on the genetic material. The cells  
in this assay showed changes after exposure to  
simulated cell phone radiation, but only after 24  
hours of exposure. It is possible that exposing the  
test cells to radiation for this long resulted in  
heating. Since this assay is known to be sensitive to  
heating, heat alone could have caused the  
abnormalities to occur. The data already in the  
literature on the response of the micronucleus  
August 31, 2001  
SGH-Q105  
109  
Safety Information  
SGH-Q105 User Manual  
assay to RF are conflicting. Thus, follow-up  
research is necessary.  
FDA is currently working with government,  
industry, and academic groups to ensure the  
proper follow-up to these industry-funded  
research findings. Collaboration with the Cellular  
Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA)  
in particular is expected to lead to FDA providing  
research recommendations and scientific  
oversight of new CTIA-funded research based on  
such recommendations.  
Two other studies of interest have been reported  
recently in the literature:  
1. Two groups of 18 people were exposed to  
simulated mobile phone signals under laboratory  
conditions while they performed cognitive  
function tests. There were no changes in the  
subjects’ ability to recall words, numbers, or  
pictures, or in their spatial memory, but they were  
able to make choices more quickly in one visual  
test when they were exposed to simulated mobile  
phone signals. This was the only change noted  
among more than 20 variables compared.  
2. In a study of 209 brain tumor cases and 425  
matched controls, there was no increased risk of  
brain tumors associated with mobile phone use.  
When tumors did exist in certain locations,  
however, they were more likely to be on the side of  
the head where the mobile phone was used.  
Because this occurred in only a small number of  
cases, the increased likelihood was too small to be  
statistically significant.  
In summary, we do not have enough information  
at this point to assure the public that there are, or  
are not, any low incident health problems  
110  
SGH-Q105

Owner’s Record  
associated with use of mobile phones. FDA  
continues to work with all parties, including other  
federal agencies and industry, to assure that  
research is undertaken to provide the necessary  
answers to the outstanding questions about the  
safety of mobile phones.  
What is known about cases of human cancer that  
have been reported in users of hand-held mobile  
phones?  
Some people who have used mobile phones have  
been diagnosed with brain cancer. But it is  
important to understand that this type of cancer  
also occurs among people who have not used  
mobile phones. In fact, brain cancer occurs in the  
U.S. population at a rate of about 6 new cases per  
100,000 people each year. At that rate, assuming 80  
million users of mobile phones (a number  
increasing at a rate of about 1 million per month),  
about 4800 cases of brain cancer would be  
expected each year among those 80 million  
people, whether or not they used their phones.  
Thus it is not possible to tell whether any  
individual’s cancer arose because of the phone, or  
whether it would have happened anyway. A key  
question is whether the risk of getting a particular  
form of cancer is greater among people who use  
mobile phones than among the rest of the  
population. One way to answer that question is to  
compare the usage of mobile phones among  
people with brain cancer with the use of mobile  
phones among appropriately matched people  
without brain cancer. This is called a case-control  
study. The current case-control study of brain  
cancers by the National Cancer Institute, as well as  
August 31, 2001  
SGH-Q105  
111  
Safety Information  
SGH-Q105 User Manual  
the follow-up research to be sponsored by industry,  
will begin to generate this type of information.  
What is FDA’s role concerning the safety of mobile  
phones?  
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of  
radiation-emitting consumer products such as  
mobile phones before marketing, as it does with  
new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency  
has authority to take action if mobile phones are  
shown to emit radiation at a level that is hazardous  
to the user. In such a case, FDA could require the  
manufacturers of mobile phones to notify users of  
the health hazard and to repair, replace or recall  
the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.  
Although the existing scientific data do not justify  
FDA regulatory actions at this time, FDA has urged  
the mobile phone industry to take a number of  
steps to assure public safety. The agency has  
recommended that the industry:  
• support needed research into possible biological  
effects of RF of the type emitted by mobile phones;  
• design mobile phones in a way that minimizes  
any RF exposure to the user that is not necessary  
for device function; and  
• cooperate in providing mobile phone users with  
the best possible information on what is known  
about possible effects of mobile phone use on  
human health.  
At the same time, FDA belongs to an interagency  
working group of the federal agencies that have  
responsibility for different aspects of mobile  
phone safety to ensure a coordinated effort at the  
federal level. These agencies are:  
112  
SGH-Q105

• National Institute for Occupational Safety and  
Health  
• Environmental Protection Agency  
• Federal Communications Commission  
• Occupational Health and Safety Administration  
• National Telecommunications and Information  
Administration  
The National Institutes of Health also participates  
in this group.  
In the absence of conclusive information about  
any possible risk, what can concerned individuals  
do?  
If there is a risk from these products--and at this  
point we do not know that there is--it is probably  
very small. But if people are concerned about  
avoiding even potential risks, there are simple  
steps they can take to do so. For example, time is a  
key factor in how much exposure a person  
receives. Those persons who spend long periods of  
time on their hand-held mobile phones could  
consider holding lengthy conversations on  
conventional phones and reserving the hand-held  
models for shorter conversations or for situations  
when other types of phones are not available.  
People who must conduct extended conversations  
in their cars every day could switch to a type of  
mobile phone that places more distance between  
their bodies and the source of the RF, since the  
exposure level drops off dramatically with  
distance. For example, they could switch to:  
• a mobile phone in which the antenna is located  
outside the vehicle,  
• a hand-held phone with a built-in antenna  
connected to a different antenna mounted on the  
August 31, 2001

113  
Safety Information  
SGH-Q105 User Manual  
outside of the car or built into a separate package,  
or  
• a headset with a remote antenna to a mobile  
phone carried at the waist.  
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that  
mobile phones are harmful. But if people are  
concerned about the radio frequency energy from  
these products, taking the simple precautions  
outlined above can reduce any possible risk.
