Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
information
This mobile phone model KG220 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 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.
• The highest SAR value for this model phone tested by DASY4 for
use at the ear is 0.917 W/kg (10g).
• SAR data information for residents in countries/regions that have
adopted the SAR limit recommended by the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE), which is 1.6 W/kg averaged over one (1)
gram of tissue (for example USA, Canada, Australia and Taiwan).
