Product capacity representation
Memory Capacity Representation
The memory capacity reported in the Chrome OS is less than the
actual capacity of memory. This is because BIOS or a video adapter
uses a portion of memory or claims it for further use.
(E.g., For 1 GB (=1,024 MB) memory installed, OS (Windows,
Chrome, etc.) may report the capacity as 1,022 MB or less)
Operating system and software support
If a problem occurs because of the reinstallation of other
operating systems (OS) or a previous version of an OS pre-installed
on this Chromebook, or a software that does not support the OS,
the company will not provide technical support, a replacement or
refund, and if our service engineer visits you due to this problem, a
service charge will be applied.
Performance Restrictions
Online games and some games (3D, 2D) may not be supported
and Full HD video and some high bit rate HD video playback may
be slow and stutter on this Chromebook.

Ensure that the electrical outlet to power the equipment is
easily accessible in case of fire or short circuit.
If the Chromebook has a voltage selector switch, make sure
that the switch is in the proper position for your area.
Openings in the Chromebook case are provided for
ventilation. Do not block or cover these openings. Make
sure you provide adequate space, at least 6 inches (15 cm),
around the system for ventilation when setting up your work
area. Never insert objects of any kind into the Chromebook
ventilation openings.
Ensure that the fan vents on the bottom of the casing are clear
at all times. Do not place the Chromebook on a soft surface,
doing so will block the bottom vents.
When using an extension cord with this system, make sure
that the total power rating on the products plugged into the
extension cord does not exceed the extension cord power
rating.
For Chromebooks with glossy display bezels the user should
consider the placement of the Chromebook as the bezel may
cause reflections from surrounding light and bright surfaces.

The RF field strength of the wireless device or devices that may
be embedded in the Chromebook are well below all international
RF exposure limits as known at this time. Because the wireless
devices (which may be embedded into the Chromebook) emit less
energy than is allowed in radio frequency safety standards and
recommendations, manufacturer believes these devices are safe
for use. Regardless of the power levels, care should be taken to
minimize human contact during normal operation.
Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices.
Examples of common restrictions are listed on the next page:

Additional limitations, cautions, and concerns for specific
countries are listed in the specific country sections (or country
group sections). The wireless devices in the system are only
qualified for use in the countries identified by the Radio Approval

Every country has different restrictions on the use of
wireless devices. Since your system is equipped with
a wireless device, when traveling between countries
with your system, check with the local Radio Approval
authorities prior to any move or trip for any restrictions
on the use of a wireless device in the destination
country.
If the system came equipped with an internal
embedded wireless device, do not operate the wireless
device unless all covers and shields are in place and the
system is fully assembled.
Wireless devices are not user serviceable. Do not modify
them in any way. Modification to a wireless device will
void the authorization to use it. Please contact the
manufacturer for service.
Only use drivers approved for country in which the
device will be used. See the manufacturer System
Restoration Kit, or contact the manufacturers technical
support for additional information.
Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere
with equipment on commercial aircraft. Current
aviation regulations require wireless devices to be
turned off while traveling in an airplane.
802.11 (also known as wireless Ethernet or Wi-Fi) and
Bluetooth communication devices are examples of
devices that provide wireless communication.
In environments where the risk of interference to other
devices or services is harmful or perceived as harmful,
the option to use a wireless device may be restricted
or eliminated. Airports, hospitals, and oxygen or
flammable gas laden atmospheres are limited examples
where use of wireless devices may be restricted or
eliminated. When in environments where you are
uncertain of the sanction to use wireless devices, ask
the applicable authority for authorization prior to use or
turning on the wireless device.

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Certification Information
This product can contain an embedded 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). 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.
Before a new model is available for sale to the public, it must be
certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the exposure limit
established by the FCC. Evaluation per each model is performed
in positions and locations (e.g. at the bottom on the body) as
required by the FCC.
If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/television technician for additional suggestions. The user
may find the following booklet helpful: “Something About
Interference.
This is available at FCC local regional offices. Our company is not
responsible for any radio or television interference caused by
unauthorized modifications of this equipment or the substitution
or attachment of connecting cables and equipment other than
those specified by our company. The correction will be the
responsibility of the user. Use only shielded data cables with this

For corresponding model only
The Specific Absorption Rate (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 wireless devices to comply
with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).
SAR level of this device while operating can be well below the
maximum value. This is because the 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.
For body worn operation, this model meets the FCC RF exposure
guidelines when used with Samsung accessory designated for this
product. Non-compliance with the above restrictions may result in
violation of FCC RF exposure guidelines.
RF exposure or SAR information can be viewed on-line at
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. This site uses this product FCC ID
number on the outside of the product. Sometimes it may be
necessary to remove the battery pack to find number. Once
