Section 12: 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 GALAXY.  
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.  
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.  
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 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:  
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.  
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  
87  
       
Interphone Study  
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.  
Interphone is a large international study designed to determine  
whether cell phones increase the risk of head and neck cancer. A  
report published in the International Journal of Epidemiology  
(June, 2010) compared cell phone usage for more than 5,000  
people with brain tumors (glioma and meningioma) and a similar  
number of healthy controls.  
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.  
Results of this study did NOT show that cell phones caused brain  
cancer. In this study, most people had no increased risk of brain  
cancer from using cell phones. For people with the heaviest use  
of cell phones (an average of more than ½ hour per day, every  
day, for over 10 years) the study suggested a slight increase in  
brain cancer. However, the authors determined that biases and  
errors prevented any conclusions being drawn from this data.  
Additional information about Interphone can be found at  
Research Results to Date: Is there a connection between RF  
and certain health problems?  
The results of most studies conducted to date say no. In addition,  
attempts to replicate and confirm the few studies that have  
shown a connection have failed.  
http://www.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/pr/2010/pdfs/pr200_E.pdf  
.
Interphone is the largest cell phone study to date, but it did not  
answer all questions about cell phone safety. Additional research  
is being conducted around the world, and the FDA continues to  
monitor developments in this field.  
The scientific community at large therefore believes that the  
weight of scientific evidence does not show an association  
between exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) from cell phones and  
adverse health outcomes. Still the scientific community has  
supported additional research to address gaps in knowledge.  
Some of these studies are described below.

The COSMOS study aims to conduct long-term health monitoring  
of a large group of people to determine if there are any health  
issues linked to long-term exposure to radio frequency energy  
from cell phone use. The COSMOS study will follow  
approximately 300,000 adult cell phone users in Europe for 20 to  
30 years. Additional information about the COSMOS study can be  
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) actively follows cancer  
statistics in the United States to detect any change in rates of  
new cases for brain cancer. If cell phones play a role in risk for  
brain cancer, rates should go up, because heavy cell phone use  
has been common for quite some time in the U.S. Between 1987  
and 2005, the overall age-adjusted incidence of brain cancer did  
not increase. Additional information about SEER can be found at

Reducing Exposure: Hands-Free Kits and Other  
Accessories  
Steps to Reduce Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy  
kits reduce risks. Hands-free kits can be used for convenience  
and comfort. They are also required by law in many states if you  
want to use your phone while driving.  
Cell Phone Accessories that Claim to Shield the Head from RF  
Radiation  
If there is a risk from being exposed to Radio Frequency (RF)  
energy from cell phones - and at this point we do not know that  
there is - it is probably very small. But, if you are concerned  
about avoiding even potential risks, you can take a few simple  
steps to minimize your RF exposure.  
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions  
from cell phones, there is no reason to believe that accessories  
which claim to shield the head from those emissions reduce  
risks. Some products that claim to shield the user from RF  
absorption use special phone cases, while others involve nothing  
more than a metallic accessory attached to the phone. Studies  
have shown that these products generally do not work as  
advertised. Unlike “hands-free” kits, these so-called “shields”  
may interfere with proper operation of the phone. The phone may  
be forced to boost its power to compensate, leading to an  
increase in RF absorption.  
Reduce the amount of time spent using your cell phone;  
Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance between your  
head and the cell phone.  
Hands-Free Kits  
Hands-free kits may include audio or Bluetooth® headsets and  
various types of body-worn accessories such as belt-clips and  
holsters. Combinations of these can be used to reduce RF energy  
absorption from cell phones.  
Headsets can substantially reduce exposure because the phone  
is held away from the head in the user’s hand or in approved  
body-worn accessories. Cell phones marketed in the U.S. are  
required to meet RF exposure compliance requirements when  
used against the head and against the body.  
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions  
from cell phones, there is no reason to believe that hands-free

SAR tests are conducted using standard operating positions  
accepted by the FCC with the mobile device 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 mobile device while operating  
can be well below the maximum value. This is because the  
mobile device 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.  
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Certification  
Information  
Your mobile 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 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).  
Before a new model mobile device is available for sale to the  
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not  
exceed the exposure limit established by the FCC. Tests for each  
model of a device are performed in positions and locations (e.g.  
near the body) as required by the FCC.  
In both cases, 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 exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile devices  
employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific  
For typical operations, this mobile device has been tested and  
meets FCC RF exposure guidelines.  
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 devices to  
comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).  
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF  
exposure guidelines.  
The FCC exposure limit incorporates a substantial margin of  
safety to give additional protection to the public and to account  
for any variations in measurements.

Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way.  
Battery Use and Safety  
The battery in GALAXY is not intended to be replaced by the  
consumer. If you believe the battery is damaged or needs to be  
replaced, take the GALAXY to a service center for inspection and  
replacement.  
Important!: Use only Samsung-approved batteries, and recharge your battery  
only with Samsung-approved chargers which are specifically  
designed for your GALAXY.  
WARNING!  
Do not let the GALAXY or battery come in contact with liquids.  
Liquids can get into the GALAXY’s circuits, leading to corrosion. Even  
when the GALAXY appears to be dry and appears to operate normally,  
the circuitry could slowly corrode and pose a safety hazard. If the  
GALAXY and/or battery get wet, have them checked by your service  
provider or contact Samsung, even if they appear to be working  
properly.  
Use of a non-Samsung-approved battery or charger may present a  
risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. Samsung's  
warranty does not cover damage to the GALAXY caused by  
non-Samsung-approved batteries and/or chargers.  
Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers. Some websites  
and second-hand dealers not associated with reputable manufacturers  
and carriers, might be selling incompatible or even counterfeit  
batteries and chargers. Consumers should purchase manufacturer or  
carrier-recommended products and accessories. If unsure about  
whether a replacement battery or charger is compatible, contact the  
manufacturer of the battery or charger.  
Do not place your battery in or near a heat source. Excessive  
heating can damage the GALAXY or the battery and could cause the  
GALAXY or the battery to explode. Do not dry a wet or damp battery  
with an appliance or heat source such as a microwave oven, hair  
dryer, iron, or radiator. Avoid leaving your GALAXY in your car in high  
temperatures.  
Misuse or use of incompatible batteries and charging devices  
could result in damage to the equipment and a possible risk of  
fire, explosion, or leakage, leading to serious injuries, damages to  
your phone, or other serious hazard.  
Do not dispose of the GALAXY or the battery in a fire. The GALAXY  
or the battery may explode when overheated.  
Avoid dropping the GALAXY. Dropping the GALAXY, especially on a  
hard surface, can potentially cause damage to the GALAXY. If you  
suspect damage to the GALAXY or battery, take it to a service center  
for inspection.

Emergency Communication  
Microwaves  
Do not try to dry your mobile device in a microwave oven. Doing so  
may cause a fire or explosion.  
GALAXY should not be relied upon for essential communications  
(medical emergencies, calls to 911, or communications to  
emergency services). GALAXY is not designed or intended to be  
used for such communications. Voice Over Internet Protocol  
(VOIP) services which may be used on GALAXY to make phone  
calls do not support 911 calls and are only intended for talking  
with friends.  
Dust and dirt  
Do not expose your mobile device to dust, dirt, or sand.  
Cleaning solutions  
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to  
clean the mobile device. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly dampened in  
a mild soap-and-water solution.  
Care and Maintenance  
Shock or vibration  
Do not drop, knock, or shake the mobile device. Rough handling can  
break internal circuit boards.  
Your mobile device is a product of superior design and  
craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The suggestions  
below will help you fulfill any warranty obligations and allow you  
to enjoy this product for many years:  
Paint  
Do not paint the mobile device. Paint can clog the device’s moving  
parts or ventilation openings and prevent proper operation.  
Keep your Samsung Mobile Device away from:  
Liquids of any kind  
Keep the mobile device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and liquids contain  
minerals that will corrode electronic circuits. If the mobile device does  
get wet, do not accelerate drying with the use of an oven, microwave,  
or dryer, because this may damage the mobile device and could cause  
a fire or explosion. Do not use the mobile device with a wet hand.  
Doing so may cause an electric shock to you or damage to the mobile  
device.  
Extreme heat or cold  
Avoid temperatures below 0°C / 32°F or above 45°C / 113°F.  
97  
Responsible Listening  
Always turn the volume down before plugging the earphones into an  
audio source.  
Caution!: Avoid potential hearing loss.  
Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume at  
which you can hear adequately.  
Damage to hearing occurs when a person is exposed to loud  
sounds over time. The risk of hearing loss increases as sound is  
played louder and for longer durations. Prolonged exposure to  
loud sounds (including music) is the most common cause of  
preventable hearing loss. Some scientific research suggests that  
using portable audio devices, such as portable music players and  
cell phones, at high volume settings for long durations may lead  
to permanent noise-induced hearing loss.  
Be aware that you can adapt to higher volume settings over time, not  
realizing that the higher volume may be harmful to your hearing.  
When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the  
people speaking near you or if the person sitting next to you can hear  
what you are listening to.  
Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings. If you  
choose to listen to your portable device in a noisy environment, use  
noise-cancelling headphones to block out background environmental  
noise.  
By blocking background environment noise, noise cancelling  
headphones should allow you to hear the music at lower volumes than  
when using earbuds.  
This includes the use of headphones (including headsets,  
earbuds, and Bluetooth® or other wireless devices). Exposure to  
very loud sound has also been associated in some studies with  
tinnitus (a ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to sound, and  
distorted hearing. Individual susceptibility to noise-induced  
hearing loss and potential hearing problem varies. Additionally,  
the amount of sound produced by a portable audio device varies  
depending on the nature of the sound, the device settings, and  
the headphones that are used. As a result, there is no single  
volume setting that is appropriate for everyone or for every  
combination of sound, settings, and equipment.  
Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume increases, less time  
is required before you hearing could be affected.  
Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises, such  
as rock concerts, that might cause temporary hearing loss. Temporary  
hearing loss might cause unsafe volumes to sound normal.  
Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you  
experience ringing in your ears, hear muffled speech, or experience  
any temporary hearing difficulty after listening to your portable audio  
device, discontinue use and consult your doctor.  
You should follow some common sense recommendations when  
using any portable audio device:

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not  
always, clearly marked. They include below deck on boats,  
chemical transfer 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, and any other area where you would normally be  
advised to turn off your vehicle engine.  
FCC Notice  
The mobile device may cause TV or radio interference if used in  
close proximity to receiving equipment. The FCC can require you  
to stop using the mobile device if such interference cannot be  
eliminated. Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as  
propane or butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection  
Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the  
National Fire Protection Association.  
Cautions  
Any changes or modifications to your mobile device not expressly  
approved in this document could void your warranty for this  
equipment and void your authority to operate this equipment.  
Only use approved batteries, antennas, and chargers. The use of  
any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and void the  
mobile device warranty if said accessories cause damage or a  
defect to the mobile device. Although your mobile device is quite  
sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken.  
Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on it.  
Restricting Children's Access to Your Mobile Device  
Your mobile device is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with  
it because they could hurt themselves and others, damage the  
mobile device, or use services that increase your mobile device  
bill.  
Keep the mobile device and all its parts and accessories out of  
the reach of small children.  
101  
Other Important Safety Information  
Only qualified personnel should service the mobile device. Faulty  
service may be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty applicable  
to the device.  
Ensure that any mobile devices or related equipment used in your  
vehicle are securely mounted.  
Check regularly that all wireless mobile device equipment in your  
vehicle is mounted and operating properly.  
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials  
in the same compartment as the mobile device, its parts, or  
accessories.  
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag  
inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including portable  
wireless equipment near or in the area over the air bag or in the air  
bag deployment area. If wireless equipment is improperly installed and  
the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.  
Switch your mobile device off before boarding an aircraft. The use of  
wireless mobile devices in aircraft is illegal and may be dangerous to  
the aircraft’s operation. Check with appropriate authorities before  
using any function of a mobile device while on an aircraft.  
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or  
denial of network services to the offender, or legal action, or both.

During the applicable warranty period, provided the Product is returned  
in accordance with the terms of this Limited Warranty, SAMSUNG will

What are the limits on SAMSUNG's liability?  
PRODUCT, WHETHER SUCH THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE OR  
EQUIPMENT IS INCLUDED WITH THE PRODUCT DISTRIBUTED BY  
SAMSUNG OR OTHERWISE. RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE QUALITY,  
CAPABILITIES, OPERATIONS, PERFORMANCE AND SUITABILITY OF  
ANY SUCH THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE OR EQUIPMENT RESTS  
SOLELY WITH THE PURCHASER AND THE DIRECT VENDOR,  
OWNER OR SUPPLIER OF SUCH THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE OR  
EQUIPMENT.  
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY SETS OUT THE FULL EXTENT OF  
SAMSUNG'S RESPONSIBILITIES, AND THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY  
REGARDING THE PRODUCTS. ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES,  
INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF  
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,  
ARE LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. IN  
NO EVENT SHALL SAMSUNG BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES IN  
EXCESS OF THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT OR FOR,  
WITHOUT LIMITATION, COMMERCIAL LOSS OF ANY SORT; LOSS  
OF USE, TIME, DATA, REPUTATION, OPPORTUNITY, GOODWILL,  
PROFITS OR SAVINGS; INCONVENIENCE; INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL,  
CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; OR DAMAGES ARISING  
FROM THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PRODUCT. SOME  
STATES AND JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON  
HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, OR THE DISCLAIMER  
OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,  
SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS MAY NOT APPLY  
TO YOU.  
Nothing in the Product instructions or information shall be  
construed to create an express warranty of any kind with respect  
to the Products. No agent, employee, dealer, representative or  
reseller is authorized to modify or extend this Limited Warranty or  
to make binding representations or claims, whether in  
advertising, presentations or otherwise, on behalf of SAMSUNG  
regarding the Products or this Limited Warranty.  
This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you

What is the procedure for resolving disputes?  
For any arbitration in which the Purchaser's total damage claims,  
exclusive of attorney fees and expert witness fees, are $5,000.00  
or less (“Small Claim”), the arbitrator may, if the Purchaser  
prevails, award the Purchaser's reasonable attorney fees, expert  
witness fees and costs as part of any award, but may not grant  
SAMSUNG its attorney fees, expert witness fees or costs unless it  
is determined that the claim was brought by the Purchaser in bad  
faith. In a Small Claim case, the Purchaser shall be required to  
pay no more than half of the total administrative, facility and  
arbitrator fees, or $50.00 of such fees, whichever is less, and  
SAMSUNG shall pay the remainder of such fees. Administrative,  
facility and arbitrator fees for arbitrations in which the  
Purchaser's total damage claims, exclusive of attorney fees and  
expert witness fees, exceed $5,000.00 (“Large Claim”) shall be  
determined according to AAA rules. In a Large Claim case, the  
arbitrator may grant to the prevailing party, or apportion among  
the parties, reasonable attorney fees, expert witness fees and  
costs. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award in any  
court of competent jurisdiction.  
ALL DISPUTES WITH SAMSUNG ARISING IN ANY WAY FROM THIS  
LIMITED WARRANTY OR THE SALE, CONDITION OR  
PERFORMANCE OF THE PRODUCTS SHALL BE RESOLVED  
EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION, AND  
NOT BY A COURT OR JURY. Any such dispute shall not be  
combined or consolidated with a dispute involving any other  
person's or entity's Product or claim, and specifically, without  
limitation of the foregoing, shall not under any circumstances  
proceed as part of a class action. The arbitration shall be  
conducted before a single arbitrator, whose award may not  
exceed, in form or amount, the relief allowed by the applicable  
law. The arbitration shall be conducted according to the  
American Arbitration Association (AAA) Commercial Arbitration  
Rules applicable to consumer disputes. This arbitration provision  
is entered pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. The laws of the  
State of Texas, without reference to its choice of laws principles,  
shall govern the interpretation of the Limited Warranty and all  
disputes that are subject to this arbitration provision. The  
arbitrator shall decide all issues of interpretation and application  
of this arbitration provision and the Limited Warranty.  
This arbitration provision also applies to claims against  
SAMSUNG'S employees, representatives and affiliates if any  
such claim arises from the Product's sale, condition or  
performance.  
Purchaser may opt out of this dispute resolution procedure by  
providing notice to SAMSUNG no later than 30 calendar days from

Purchaser must send notice by e-mail to

purchased; (c) the Product model name or model number; and (d)

same information. These are the only two forms of notice that will  
be effective to opt out of this dispute resolution procedure. Opting
