or illegal.  
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.

Guidelines for safe and efficient use  
The SAR limit recommended by the  
International Commission on Non-Ionizing  
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) is 2 W/kg  
averaged over 10g of tissue.  
The highest SAR value for this model  
phone tested by DASY4 for use at the  
ear is 0.692 W/kg (10 g) and when worn  
on the body is 0.836 W/kg (10 g), which  
is 100% compliant with indian Standard

positioned at least 1.5 cm 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  
files or messages, this device requires  
a quality connection to the network. In  
some cases, transmission of data files  
or messages may be delayed until such  
a connection is available. Ensure the  
above separation distance instructions  
are followed until the transmission is  
completed.

All mobile phones may get interference,  
which could affect performance.  
Precautions  
Use a wireless hands-free system  
(headphone, headset) with a low power  
Bluetooth emitter.  
Keep your calls short or send text  
message (SMS) instead. This advice  
applies especially to children, adolescents  
and pregnant women.  
Use the cell phone in good quality network  
signal.  
Do not use your mobile phone near  
medical equipment without requesting  
permission. Avoid placing the phone over  
pacemakers, for example, in your breast  
pocket.
