guidelines may be dangerous or illegal.
Exposure to radio frequency energy
This section is related to the Radio wave exposure and
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information: The mobile
phone model GD910 has been designed to comply with
applicable safety requirements regarding exposure to
radio waves. These requirements are based on scientific
guidelines that include safety margins designed to ensure
the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
• While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various LG phone models, all LG phones are 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 2 W/kg, averaged over 10 g of tissue.
•
The highest SAR value for this phone model, tested by
DASY4, for use when worn on the body is 0.486 W/kg (10 g).
• SAR data 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

ringing in your ears or muffled speech, stop using the
headset, and have your hearing checked. The louder the
volume, the faster your hearing could be affected.
9
Guidelines for safe and efficient use
Hearing experts suggest the followings to protect your
hearing:
• Limit the amount of time you use your Bluetooth headset
at high volumes.
