Section 12: Health and Safety Information ly This section outlines the safety precautions associated with using your Galaxy Player. The terms "GALAXY" or "mobile n device" are used in this section to refer to your Galaxy Player. Read this information before using your mobile device. O Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) T Signals F e Although GALAXY is not a cell phone, it can operate on the s same network as cell phones and can use the same Radio A Frequency (RF) signals to communicate with the network as U a cell phone. Therefore, although the following information R l refers specifically to RF exposure from wireless phones, it D a may apply similarly to GALAXY when it is being used on a cell phone network. rn The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published information for consumers relating to Radio Frequency (RF) te exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publication includes the following information: For In 152 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.
