LG Electronics 15LW1RA manual SAR Specific Absorption Rates Information

Before you Use SAR (Specific Absorption Rates) Information

THIS MODEL TV MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S

REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your wireless TV is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure standard for wireless TV employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted with the TV transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the TV while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the TV 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. Before a TV 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 when tested for use when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.094 W/Kg (Wireless Transmission Unit), 0.200 W/Kg(Wireless TV). (Body-worn measurements differ among models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in complince with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/ oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: BEJ15LW1T(Wireless Transmission Unit), BEJ15LW1R(Wireless TV).

Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com.

* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile TV used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue.

The standard incorporates a sub-stantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.
