Please read these simple
guidelines. Not following these
guidelines may be dangerous or
illegal.
Exposure to radio
frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR) information.
This mobile phone model LG-
P692 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 10 g of tissue.
The highest SAR value for this
model phone tested by DASY4
for use at the ear is 1.05 W/kg
(10 g) and when worn on the
body is 0.878 W/kg (10 g).
This device meets RF exposure
guidelines when used either in
the normal use position against
the ear or when 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.

Take it to a qualified service
technician when repair work is
required.
Repairs under warranty, at LG’s
