❑ Guidelines for safe and effi cient use
Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specifi c Absorption Rate (SAR) information
This mobile phone model LG-A170 has been designed to comply with applicable safety
requirements regarding exposure to radio waves. This requirement is based on scientifi c
guidelines that include safety margins designed to assure this safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
•
The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the Specifi c
Absorption Rate, or SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted using standardised method with the
phone transmitting at its highest certifi ed power level in all used frequency bands.
•
While there may be diff erences between the SAR levels of various LG phone models, they
are all designed to meet the pertinent guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
•
The SAR limit recommended by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP) is 2 W/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
0.745 W/Kg (10g) and when worn on the body is 0.371 W/Kg (10g).
•
SAR data information for residents of 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.
