Guidelines for safe and efﬁcient Use

safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Speciﬁ c Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the international guidelines is

2.0W/kg*. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest certiﬁ ed power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certiﬁ ed power level, the actual SAR of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device 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 base station, the lower the power output of the device. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with the European R&TTE directive must be shown. This directive includes as one essential requirement the protection of the health and the safety for the user and any other person. The highest SAR value for this device when tested for use at the ear is 0.826 W/kg.

This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use position against the ear or when positioned at least

1.5cm away from the body. When a carry case, belt clip or holder is used for body-worn operation, it should not contain metal and should position the product at least 1.5 cm away from your body. In order to transmit data ﬁ les or messages, this device requires a quality connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of data ﬁ les or messages may be delayed until such a connection

is available. Ensure the above separation distance instructions are followed until the transmission is completed. The highest SAR value for this device when tested for use at the body is 0.631 W/kg.

*The SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams of body tissue. The guidelines incorporate a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting requirements and the network band. For SAR information in other regions please look under product information at www. lgmobile.com.
