LG Electronics MFL68028601 Cell Phone User Manual

The exposure standard for wireless mobile
phones employs a unit of measurement known
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 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. Because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels 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.
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 0.41 W/kg and when worn on
the body, as described in this user’s manual,
is 0.64 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements
differ among phones models, depending upon
available accessories and FCC requirements.)
While there may be differences between
SAR levels of various phones and at various
positions, they all meet the government
requirement for safe exposure.
