Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification information

Your device conforms to U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) standards that limit human exposure to radio frequency (RF) 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.

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.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device based on the compliance of all reported SAR levels with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. Some devices are required to receive approval from the FCC. If your device required FCC approval, you can view the FCC certification by opening Settings → About phone → Status or Status information.

SAR information for this and other devices can be found on the FCC website at: www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/.
Follow the instructions on the website to use the FCC ID to find SAR values for the device.
SAR information for this device can also be found on Samsung’s website: www.samsung.com/sar.

The device may be damaged if water or dust enters the device. Follow these tips carefully to maintain the water- and dustresistant performance of the device.
Do not immerse the device in fresh water deeper than 1 m or keep it submerged for more than 30 minutes.
Do not expose the device to water moving with force. Do not suddenly apply water pressure to the device, such as when diving.
If the device is exposed to fresh water, dry it thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth. If the device is exposed to other liquids, such as salt water, swimming pool water, soapy water, oil, perfume, sunscreen, hand cleaner, or chemical
products such as cosmetics, rinse it with fresh water and dry it thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth. If you do not follow these instructions, the device’s performance and appearance may be affected.
If the device has been immersed in water or the microphone or speaker is wet, sound may not be heard clearly during a call.
Your device has been tested in a controlled environment and certified to be water- and dust-resistant in specific situations (meets requirements of classification IP67 as described by the international standard IEC 60529-Degrees of Protection provided by Enclosures [IP Code]; test conditions: 15-35 °C, 86-106 kPa, fresh water, 1 metre, 30 minutes). Despite this classification, it is still possible for your device to be damaged in certain situations.

If your device is frozen and unresponsive, press and hold the Side key and the Volume Down key simultaneously for more than 7 seconds to restart it.

The actual available capacity of the internal memory is less than the specified capacity because the operating system and default apps occupy part of the memory. The available capacity may change when you upgrade the device.

It is recommended not to use fixed graphics on part or all of the touchscreen for extended periods. Doing so may result in afterimages (screen burn-in) or ghosting.

To prevent possible hearing damage when using a headset, do not listen to sound at high volume for long periods.

Maintaining dust and water resistance

The device is not impervious to dust and water damage in any situation. It is important that all compartments are closed tightly.

Follow these tips carefully to prevent damage to the device and maintain dust and water resistance performance:

Water resistant based on IP68 rating, which tests submersion in fresh water deeper than 1.5 meters or keep it submerged for more than 30 minutes. If device is exposed to fresh water, dry it thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth; if exposed to liquid other than fresh water, rinse with fresh water and dry as directed.
Any device which uses accessible compartments or ports that can be opened should have these sealed or closed tightly to prevent liquid from entering the system.
If the device has been immersed in water or the microphone or speaker is wet, sound may not be heard clearly during a call.
After wiping the device with a dry cloth, dry it thoroughly before using it.
Do not expose the device to water at high pressure.
If the device is dropped or receives an impact, the water and dust resistant features of the device may be damaged.

Note: Liquid other than fresh water may enter the device faster. Failure to rinse the device in fresh water and dry it as instructed may cause the device to suffer from operability or cosmetic issues.
