Guidelines for safe and e cient use (Continued)
Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information
This mobile phone model GB170/
GB175 has been designed to comply
with applicable safety requirements for
exposure to radio waves. These
requirements are based on scientific
guidelines that include safety margins
designed to assure the safety of all
users, 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 10g of tissue.
• GB170- The highest SAR value for this
model phone tested by DASY4 for
use close to the ear is 1.060 W/
kg(10g) and when worn on the body
is 0.834 W/kg(10g).
GB175- The highest SAR value for this
model phone tested by DASY4 for
use close to the ear is 1.050 W/
kg(10g) and when worn on the body
is 1.150 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 1g of tissue.
Product care and maintenance
WARNING
Only use batteries, chargers and
accessories approved for use with this
particular phone model. The use of any
other types may invalidate any
approval or warranty applying to the
phone, and may be dangerous.
