Exposure to radio frequency energy

Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information

This mobile phone model KG370 has been designed to comply with applicable safety requirement for exposure to radio waves. This requirement is based on scientific guidelines that include safety margins designed to ensure safety of all persons, 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 standardized 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 ten (10) gram of tissue.

›

The highest SAR value for this model phone tested by DASY4 for use at the ear is

1.16 W/kg (10g) and when worn on the body is 0.363 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) is

1.6 W/kg averaged over one (1) gram of tissue.
