Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR) information
This mobile phone model TG800F has been designed to comply with applicable
safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. This requirement is based on
scientific guidelines that include safety margins designed to assure the safety of
all persons, regardless of age and health.
]
The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted by using
standardised methods with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power
level in all used frequency bands.
]
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various LG phone
models, they are all designed to meet the relevant guidelines for exposure to
radio waves.
]
The SAR limit recommended by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) is 2W/kg averaged over ten (10) gram of tissue.
]
SAR data information for residents in countries/ regions that have adopted the
SAR limit recommended by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE) is 1.6 W/kg averaged over one (1) gram of tissue.
