or four times until the letter is displayed.

Safety Guidelines

TIA Safety Information

Provided herein is the complete TIA Safety Information
for Wireless Handheld phones. Inclusion of the text
covering Pacemakers, Hearing Aids, and Other Medical
Devices is required in the ownerís manual for CTIA
Certification. Use of the remaining TIA language is
encouraged when appropriate.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal

Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low­power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it
receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.

In August, 1996, the Federal Communications
Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines
with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standards
previously set by both U.S. and international standards
bodies:

ANSI C95.1 (1992) *

NCRP Report 86 (1986)

ICNIRP (1996)

Those standards were based on comprehensive and
periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature.
For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and
physicians from universities, government health
agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of
research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).

*American National Standards Institute; NationalCouncil

on Radiation Protection and
Measurements;International Commission on Non­Ionizing RadiationProtection

The design of your phone complies with the FCC
guidelines (and those standards).

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement
antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the phone and may violate
FCC regulations.

Phone Operation

NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any
other telephone with the antenna pointed up and over
your shoulder.

Tips on Efficient Operation

Safety Guidelines

For your phone to operate most efficiently:

]

Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the
phone is in use. Contact with the antenna affects call
quality and may cause the phone to operate at a
higher power level than otherwise needed.

Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless
phones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them.
Also, if using your phone while driving, please:

]

Give full attention to driving - driving safely is your
first responsibility;

]

Use hands-free operation, if available;

]

Pull off the road and park before making or answering
a call if driving conditions so require.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not
be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless
phone.

78

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation of six (6’)
inches be maintained between a handheld wireless
phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference
with the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

]

Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches
from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON;

]

Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.

]

Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for interference.

]

If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may
want to consult your service provider.

LG240 Canada Rogers ENG_0825 2006.8.25 4:24 PM ˘`79

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information. Turn your phone OFF in health care
facilities when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities
may be using equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.

Health Care Facilities

FDA Consumer Update

The U.S. Food and Drug Administrationís Center for
Devices and Radiological Health Consumer Update on
Mobile Phones.

1.Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?

The available scientific evidence does not show that
any health problems are associated with using wireless
phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless
phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low
levels of radiofrequency energy (RF) in the microwave

range while being used. They also emit very low levels
of RF when in the standby mode. Whereas high levels
of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue),
exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating
effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many
studies of low level RF exposures have not found any
biological effects. Some studies have suggested that
some biological effects may occur, but such findings
have not been confirmed by additional research. In
some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in
reproducing those studies, or in determining the
reasons for inconsistent results.

2.What is the FDA’s role concerning the safety of
wireless phones?

Under the law, the FDA does not review the safety of
radiation-emitting consumer products such as wireless
phones before they can be sold, as it does with new
drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has
authority to take action if wireless phones are shown
to emit radiofrequency energy (RF) at a level that is
hazardous to the user. In such a case, the FDA could
require the manufacturers of wireless phones to notify
users of the health hazard and to repair, replace, or
recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.

Although the existing scientific data do not justify
FDA regulatory actions, the FDA has urged the
wireless phone industry to take a number of steps,
including the following:

]

Support needed research into possible biological
effects of RF of the type emitted by wireless phones;

]

Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF
exposure to the user that is not necessary for device
function; and

]

Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with
the best possible information on possible effects of
wireless phone use on human health.

The FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the
federal agencies that have responsibility for different
aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the
federal level. The following agencies belong to this
working group:

]

National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health

]

Environmental Protection Agency

]

Occupational Safety and Health Administration

]

National Telecommunications and Information
Administration

The National Institutes of Health participates in some
interagency working group activities, as well.

The FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless
phones with the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States
must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF
exposure. The FCC relies on the FDA and other health
agencies for safety questions about wireless phones.

The FCC also regulates the base stations that the
wireless phone networks rely upon. While these base
stations operate at higher power than do the wireless
phones themselves, the RF exposures that people get
from these base stations are typically thousands of
times lower than those they can get from wireless
phones. Base stations are thus not the subject of the
safety questions discussed in this document.

3.What kinds of phones are the subject of this
update?

The term ‘wireless phone’ refers here to handheld
wireless phones with built-in antennas, often called
‘cell’, ‘mobile’, or ‘PCS’ phones. These types of wireless
phones can expose the user to measurable
radiofrequency energy (RF) because of the short
distance between the phone and the user’s head.

Safety Guidelines

These RF exposures are limited by FCC safety

Safety Guidelines

guidelines that were developed with the advice of the
FDA and other federal health and safety agencies.
When the phone is located at greater distances from
the user, the exposure to RF is drastically lower
because a person’s RF exposure decreases rapidly with
increasing distance from the source. The so-called
‘cordless phones,’ which have a base unit connected to
the telephone wiring in a house, typically operate at far
lower power levels, and thus produce RF exposures far
below the FCC safety limits.

4.What are the results of the research done already?

The research done thus far has produced conflicting
results, and many studies have suffered from flaws in
their research methods. Animal experiments
investigating the effects of radiofrequency energy (RF)
exposures characteristic of wireless phones have
yielded conflicting results that often cannot be
repeated in other laboratories. A few animal studies,
however, have suggested that low levels of RF could
accelerate the development of cancer in laboratory
animals. However, many of the studies that showed
increased tumor development used animals that had
been genetically engineered or treated with cancer-

84

causing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to develop
cancer in the absence of RF exposure. Other studies
exposed the animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day.
These conditions are not similar to the conditions
under which people use wireless phones, so we don’t
know with certainty what the results of such studies
mean for human health. Three large epidemiology
studies have been published since December 2000.
Between them, the studies investigated any possible
association between the use of wireless phones and
primary brain cancer, glioma, meningioma, or acoustic
neuroma, tumors of the brain or salivary gland,
leukemia, or other cancers. None of the studies
demonstrated the existence of any harmful health
effects from wireless phone RF exposures. However,
none of the studies can answer questions about long­term exposures, since the average period of phone use
in these studies was around three years.

5.What research is needed to decide whether RF
exposure from wireless phones poses a health risk?

A combination of laboratory studies and
epidemiological studies of people actually using
wireless phones would provide some of the data that
are needed. Lifetime animal exposure studies could be

LG240 Canada Rogers ENG_0825 2006.8.25 4:24 PM ˘`85

completed in a few years. However, very large numbers
of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of
a cancer promoting effect if one exists. Epidemiological
studies can provide data that is directly applicable to
human populations, but 10 or more years follow-up
may be needed to provide answers about some health
effects, such as cancer. This is because the interval
between the time of exposure to a cancer-causing
agent and the time tumors develop - if they do - may
be many, many years. The interpretation of
epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in
measuring actual RF exposure during day-to-day use of
wireless phones. Many factors affect this measurement,
such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which
model of phone is used.

6.What is the FDA doing to find out more about the
possible health effects of wireless phone RF?

The FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology
Program and with groups of investigators around the
world to ensure that high priority animal studies are
conducted to address important questions about the
effects of exposure to radiofrequency energy (RF). The
FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health
Organization International Electromagnetic Fields

(EMF) Project since its inception in 1996. An
influential result of this work has been the development
of a detailed agenda of research needs that has driven
the establishment of new research programs around
the world. The project has also helped develop a series
of public information documents on EMF issues. The
FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet
Association (CTIA) have a formal Cooperative
Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) to do
research on wireless phone safety. The FDA provides
the scientific oversight, obtaining input from experts in
government, industry, and academic organizations.
CTIA-funded research is conducted through contracts
with independent investigators. The initial research will
include both laboratory studies and studies of wireless
phone users. The CRADA will also include a broad
assessment of additional research needs in the context
of the latest research developments around the world.

7.How can I find out how much radio frequency
energy exposure I can get by using my wireless
phone?

All phones sold in the United States must comply with
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines
that limit radio frequency energy (RF) exposures. The

Safety Guidelines

85

LG240 Canada Rogers ENG_0825 2006.8.25 4:24 PM ˘`86

Safety Guidelines

FCC established these guidelines in consultation with

Safety Guidelines

the FDA and the other federal health and safety
agencies. The FCC limit for RF exposure from wireless
telephones is set at a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC limit is
consistent with the safety standards developed by the
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (IEEE)
and the National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement. The exposure limit takes into
consideration the body’s ability to remove heat from
the tissues that absorb energy from the wireless phone
and is set well below levels known to have effects.
Manufacturers of wireless phones must report the RF
exposure level for each model of phone to the FCC.
The FCC website (http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ rfsafety)
gives directions for locating the FCC identification
number on your phone so you can find your phone’s RF
exposure level in the online listing.

8.What has the FDA done to measure the radio
frequency energy coming from wireless phones?

The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers
(IEEE) is developing a technical standard for measuring
the radio frequency energy (RF) exposure from
wireless phones and other wireless handsets with the

86

participation and leadership of FDA scientists and
engineers. The standard, ‘Recommended Practice for
Determining the Spatial-Peak Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR) in the Human Body Due to Wireless
Communications Devices: Experimental Techniques,’
sets forth the first consistent test methodology for
measuring the rate at which RF is deposited in the
heads of wireless phone users. The test method uses a
tissue-simulating model of the human head.
Standardized SAR test methodology is expected to
greatly improve the consistency of measurements
made at different laboratories on the same phone. SAR
is the measurement of the amount of energy absorbed
in tissue, either by the whole body or a small part of
the body. It is measured in watts/kg (or milliwatts/g)
of matter. This measurement is used to determine
whether a wireless phone complies with safety
guidelines.

9.What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to
radiofrequency energy from my wireless phone?

If there is a risk from these products - and at this point
we do not know that there is - it is probably very small.
But if you are concerned about avoiding even potential
risks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize your

LG240 Canada Rogers ENG_0825 2006.8.25 4:24 PM ˘`87

exposure to radiofrequency energy (RF). Since time is a
key factor in how much exposure a person receives,
reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless
phone will reduce RF exposure. If you must conduct
extended conversations by wireless phone every day,
you could place more distance between your body and
the source of the RF, since the exposure level drops off
dramatically with distance. For example, you could use
a headset and carry the wireless phone away from your
body or use a wireless phone connected to a remote
antenna. Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate
that wireless phones are harmful. But if you are
concerned about the RF exposure from these products,
you can use measures like those described above to
reduce your RF exposure from wireless phone use.

10.What about children using wireless phones?

The scientific evidence does not show a danger to
users of wireless phones, including children and
teenagers. If you want to take steps to lower exposure
to radiofrequency energy (RF), the measures
described above would apply to children and
teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing the time of
wireless phone use and increasing the distance
between the user and the RF source will reduce RF
exposure. Some groups sponsored by other national

governments have advised that children be
discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For
example, the government in the United Kingdom
distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation
in December 2000. They noted that no evidence
exists that using a wireless phone causes brain tumors
or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit
wireless phone use by children was strictly
precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence
that any health hazard exists.

11.What about wireless phone interference with
medical equipment?

Radio frequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can
interact with some electronic devices. For this reason,
the FDA helped develop a detailed test method to
measure electromagnetic interference (EMI) of
implanted cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from
wireless telephones. This test method is now part of a
standard sponsored by the Association for the
Advancement of Medical instrumentation (AAMI). The
final draft, a joint effort by the FDA, medical device
manufacturers, and many other groups, was completed
in late 2000. This standard will allow manufacturers to
ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are

safe from wireless phone EMI. The FDA has tested
hearing aids for interference from handheld wireless
phones and helped develop a voluntary standard
sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic
Engineers (IEEE). This standard specifies test methods
and performance requirements for hearing aids and
wireless phones so that no interference occurs when a
person uses a ‘compatible’ phone and a ‘compatible’
hearing aid at the same time. This standard was
approved by the IEEE in 2000. The FDA continues to
monitor the use of wireless phones for possible
interactions with other medical devices. Should
harmful interference be found to occur, the FDA will
conduct testing to assess the interference and work to
resolve the problem.

10 Driver Safety Tips

Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to
communicate by voice almost anywhere, anytime. An
important responsibility accompanies the benefits of
wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.
When operating a car, driving is your first responsibility.
When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of a
car, practice good common sense and remember the
following tips:

1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such
as speed dial and redial. Carefully read your
instruction manual and learn to take advantage of
valuable features most phones offer, including
automatic redial and memory. Also, work to memorize
the phone keypad so you can use the speed dial
function without taking your attention off the road.

LG240 Canada Rogers ENG_0825 2006.8.25 4:24 PM ˘`89

2. When available, use a hands-free device. A number of
hands-free wireless phone accessories are readily
available today. Whether you choose an installed
mounted device for your wireless phone or a speaker
phone accessory, take advantage of these devices if
available to you.

3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make
sure you place your wireless phone within easy reach
and where you can reach it without removing your
eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an
inconvenient time, if possible, let your voicemail
answer it for you.

4. Suspend conversations during hazardous driving
conditions or situations. Let the person you are
speaking with know you are driving; if necessary,
suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather
conditions. Rain, sleet, snow and ice can be hazardous,
but so is heavy traffic. As a driver, your first
responsibility is to pay attention to the road.

5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while
driving. If you are reading an address book or business
card, or writing a “to-do” list while driving a car, you
are not watching where you are going. It is common
sense. Don’t get caught in a dangerous situation
because you are reading or writing and not paying

attention to the road or nearby vehicles.

6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place
calls when you are not moving or before pulling into
traffic. Try to plan your calls before you begin your
trip or attempt to coincide your calls with times you
may be stopped at a stop sign, red light or otherwise
stationary. But if you need to dial while driving, follow
this simple tip— dial only a few numbers, check the
road and your mirrors, then continue.

7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations
that may be distracting. Stressful or emotional
conversations and driving do not mix; they are
distracting and even dangerous when you are behind
the wheel of a car. Make people you are talking with
aware you are driving and if necessary, suspend
conversations which have the potential to divert your
attention from the road.

8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless
phone is one of the greatest tools you can own to
protect yourself and your family in dangerous
situations — with your phone at your side, help is
only three numbers away. Dial 911 or other local
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident,
road hazard or medical emergency. Remember, it is a
free call on your wireless phone!

emergencies. Your wireless phone provides you a
perfect opportunity to be a “Good Samaritan” in your
community. If you see an auto accident, crime in
progress or other serious emergency where lives are in
danger, call 911 or other local emergency number, as
you would want others to do for you.

10. Call roadside assistance or a special wireless
nonemergency assistance number when necessary.
Certain situations you encounter while driving may
require attention, but are not urgent enough to merit
a call for emergency services. But you can still use
your wireless phone to lend a hand. If you see a
broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a
broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where
no one appears injured or a vehicle you know to be
stolen, call roadside assistance or other special non­emergency wireless number.

Consumer Information on SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate)

This Model Phone Meets the Government’s
Requirements for Exposure to Radio Waves.

Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It
is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the
U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for
the general population. The guidelines are based on
standards that were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation
of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones
employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is

1.6W/kg. * Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at
the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of

LG240 Canada Rogers ENG_0825 2006.8.25 4:24 PM ˘`91

the phone while operating can be well below the
maximum value. Because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels to use only the power
required to reach the network, in general, the closer you
are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the
power output.

Before a phone model is available for sale to the public,
it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does
not exceed the limit established by the government­adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and
worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each
model. The highest SAR value for this model phone when
tested for use at the ear is 1.34 W/kg and when worn on
the body, as described in this user’s manual, is 1.41
W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ amongphone
models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements.) While there may be differences between
SAR levels of various phones and at various positions,
they all meet the government requirement for safe
exposure.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for
this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated
as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines.

SAR information on this model phone is on file with the
FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section
of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC
ID BEJC1300I.

Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates
(SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications
Industry Association (CTIA) website at
http://www.wow-com.com

* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for

mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg
(W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The
standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to
give additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in measurements.
