What does “SAR” mean? In 1996, the FCC, working with the FDA, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and other agencies, established RF exposure safety guidelines for wireless devices in the United States. Before a wireless device model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested by the manufacturer and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed limits established by the FCC. One of these limits is expressed as a Specific Absorption Rate, or “SAR.
Do wireless devices pose any special risks to children? The FDA/FCC website states that “the scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless communication devices, including children.” The FDA/ FCC website further states that “some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be discouraged from using wireless devices at all.” For example, the Stewart Report from the United Kingdom [“UK”] made such a recommendation in December 2000.
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements http://www.ncrponline.org Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, Committee on Man and Radiation (COMAR) of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers http://ewh.ieee.org/soc/embs/comar/ (websites current as of November 2018) Consumer Information on SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) This model device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your wireless device is a radio transmitter and receiver.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on this model device 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 ZNFQ630UM. Additionally, the highest SAR values can also be found on the LG website: https://www.lg.com/global/support/sar/sar.
is the better/higher of the two ratings. T-Ratings: Devices rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than devices that are not labeled. T4 is the better/ higher of the two ratings. Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find this rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device is relatively immune to interference noise.
The Hearing Aid Compatibility FCC Order http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/FCC-03-168A1.pdf Hearing Loss Association of America [HLAA] http://hearingloss.org/content/telephones-and-mobile-devices Caution! Avoid Potential Hearing Loss Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the most common cause of preventable hearing loss.
TIA Safety Information The following is the complete TIA Safety Information for wireless handheld devices. Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal Your wireless handheld portable device is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When ON, it receives and sends out Radio Frequency (RF) signals. In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless devices.
Persons with pacemakers: • Should ALWAYS keep the device more than six (6) inches from their pacemaker when the device is turned ON; • Should not carry the device in a breast pocket; • Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference; • Should turn the device OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is taking place. Hearing Aids Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing aids.
Blasting Areas To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your device OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions. Potentially Explosive Atmosphere Turn your device OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Part 15.105 Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
• Always unplug the charger from the wall socket after the device is fully charged to save unnecessary power consumption. • Use and store your device in temperatures between 0 °C/32 °F and 40 °C/104 °F, if possible. Exposing your device to extremely low or high temperatures may result in damage, malfunction, or even explosion. • A mobile device requires proper air circulation in order to dissipate heat.
• Improper handling of the charging port, as well as the use of an incompatible charger, may cause damage or defect to your device. • Do not use or leave the device in direct sunlight or in a car heated by sunshine. The device may generate excessive heat, smoke, or flame. It also might cause deterioration of device’s characteristics or cycle life. • If the skin or clothes are smeared with liquid from the battery, wash with fresh water. It may cause skin inflammation.
• If you put your device in a pocket or bag without covering the receptacle of the device (power plug pin), metallic articles (such as a coin, paperclip or pen) may short-circuit the device and may cause an explosion. Always cover the receptacle when not in use. • Do not charge while the device or charging cable is wet or contains moisture. This can cause fire, electric shock, injury or damage to the device.
FDA Consumer Update The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health Consumer Update on Mobile Phones: 1. Do wireless devices pose a health hazard? The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that wireless devices are absolutely safe. Wireless devices emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF) energy in the microwave range while being used.
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions, the FDA has urged the wireless device industry to take a number of steps, including the following: • Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type emitted by wireless devices; • Design wireless devices in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not necessary for device function; and • Cooperate in providing users of wireless devices with the best possible information on possible effects
3. What kinds of devices are the subject of this update? The term “wireless device” refers here to handheld wireless devices with built-in antennas, often called “cell,” “mobile,” or “PCS” devices. These types of wireless devices can expose the user to measurable Radio Frequency (RF) energy because of the short distance between the device and the user’s head. These RF exposures are limited by FCC safety guidelines that were developed with the advice of the FDA and other federal health and safety agencies.
5. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless devices poses a health risk? A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually using wireless devices would provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetime animal exposure studies could be completed in a few years. However, very large numbers of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer promoting effect if one exists.
7. How can I find out how much Radio Frequency energy exposure I can get by using my wireless device? All devices sold in the United States must comply with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines that limit Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposures. The FCC established these guidelines in consultation with the FDA and the other federal health and safety agencies. The FCC limit for RF exposure from wireless devices is set at a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).
9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to Radio Frequency energy from my wireless device? If there is a risk from these products — and at this point we do not know that there is — it is probably very small. But if you are concerned about avoiding even potential risks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize your exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy.
11. What about wireless device interference with medical equipment? Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless devices can interact with some electronic devices. For this reason, the FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless telephones. This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI).
Driving Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless devices in the areas where you drive and always obey them. Also, if using your device while driving, please observe the following: • Give full attention to driving -- driving safely is your first responsibility; • Use hands-free operation, if available; • Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions or the law require it.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan your calls before you begin your trip or attempt to coincide your calls with times you may be stopped at a stop sign, red light, or otherwise stationary. But if you need to dial while driving, follow this simple tip -- dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue. 7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting.
