be dangerous or illegal.
Exposure to radio
frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR) information
This mobile phone model LG-C310
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 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 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 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 1.26 W/Kg (10g)
and when worn on the body is
1.14 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.
