Safety
TIA(Telecommunications
Industry Association) Safety
Information
The following is the complete TIA Safety
Information for wireless handheld phones.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable phone is
a low power 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:
Ź
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
Ź
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
Ź
ICNIRP (1996)
Ź
Health Canada, Safety Code 6, 1999.
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). The design of your
phone complies with the FCC guidelines, IC
Regulations (and those standards).
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved
replacement antenna.
Unauthorised 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.
5
Safety
Tips on Efficient Operation
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 and always obey them. Also, if using
your phone while driving, please observe the
following:
Ź
Give full attention to driving -- driving
safely is your first responsibility;
Ź
Use hands-free operation.
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.
6
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
Ź
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more
than six inches from their pacemaker
when the phone is turned ON;
Ź
Should not carry the phone in a breast
pocket;
Ź
Should use the ear opposite the
pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference;
Ź
Should turn the phone OFF immediately
if there is any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
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 (or call the customer service
line to discuss alternatives.) Optional for
each phone manufacturer.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device,
consult the manufacturer of your device
to determine if it is adequately shielded
from external RF energy. Your physician
may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Health Care Facilities
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 use equipment that could
be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in
motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer
or its representative regarding your vehicle.
You should also consult the manufacturer
of any equipment that has been added to
your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where
posted notices so require.
Aircraft
FCC and Transport Canada regulations
prohibit using your phone while in the air.
Switch OFF your phone before boarding an
aircraft.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations,
turn your phone OFF when in a “blasting
area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way
radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.
7
Safety
Potentially Explosive
Atmosphere
Turn your phone OFF when in any area
with a potentially explosive atmosphere and
obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in
such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive
atmosphere are often, but not always
marked clearly. Potential areas may include:
fueling areas (such as gasoline stations);
below deck on boats; fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane
or butane); areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust,
or metal powders); and any other area where
you would normally be advised to turn off
your vehicle engine.
8
For Vehicles Equipped with an
Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT
place objects, including either installed or
portable wireless equipment, in the area
over the air bag or in the air bag deployment
area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag inflates,
serious injury could result.
Charger and Adapter Safety
Ź
The charger and adapter are intended for
indoor use only.
Ź
Do not expose the battery charger or
adapter to direct sunlight or use it in
places with high humidity, such as a
bathroom.
Battery Information and Care
Ź
Please dispose of your battery properly
or take it to your local wireless carrier for
recycling.
Ź
Do not dispose of your battery by fire or
with hazardous or flammable materials.
Ź
Never use an unapproved battery since
this could damage the phone and/or
battery and could cause the battery to
explode.
Ź
The battery does not need to be fully
discharged before recharging.
Ź
Use only LG-approved chargers specific
to your phone model since they are
designed to maximize battery life.
Ź
Do not disassemble or short-circuit the
battery.
Ź
Keep the battery’s metal contacts clean.
Ź
Replace the battery when it no longer
provides acceptable performance. The
battery can be recharged several hundred
times before replacement.
Ź
Recharge the battery after long periods of
non-use to maximize battery life.
Ź
Battery life will vary due to usage patterns
and environmental conditions.
Ź
Use of extended backlighting,
MiniBrowser, and data connectivity kits
affect battery life and talk/standby times.
Safety Information
Please read and observe the following
information for safe and proper use of your
phone and to prevent damage. Also, keep
the user’s guide in an accessible place at all
the times after reading it.
Explosion, Shock, and Fire
Hazards
Ź
Unplug the power cord and charger
during lightning storms to avoid electric
shock or fire.
Ź
Make sure that no sharp-edged items
such as animal’s teeth, nails, come into
contact with the battery. There is a risk of
this causing a fire.
Ź
Do not use harsh chemicals(such as
alcohol, benzene, thinners, etc.) or
detergents to clean your phone. There is
a risk of this causing a fire.
Ź
Do not handle the phone with wet hands
while it is being charged. It may cause
an electric shock or seriously damage
your phone.
9
Safety
Ź
Do not drop, strike, or shake your phone
severely. Such actions may harm the
internal circuit boards of the phone.
Ź
Do not put your phone in a place subject
to excessive dust and keep the minimum
required distance between the power
cord and heat sources.
Ź
Unplug the power cord prior to cleaning
your phone, and clean the power plug pin
when it is dirty.
Ź
Do not damage the power cord by
bending, twisting, pulling, or heating. Do
not use the plug if it is loose as it may
cause a fire or electric shock.
Ź
When using the power plug, ensure that
it is firmly connected. If it is not, it may
cause excessive heat or fire.
Ź
Do not place any heavy items on the
power cord. Do not allow the power cord
to be crimped as it may cause fire or
electric shock.
Ź
Do not disassemble the phone.
10
Ź

charging the phone as it may short-circuit
the phone and/or cause electric shock
or fire.
Ź
If you put your phone in a pocket or bag
without covering the receptacle of the
phone (power plug pin), metallic articles
(such as a coin, paperclip or pen) may
short-circuit the phone. Always cover the
receptacle when not in use.
Ź
Do not short-circuit the battery. Metallic
articles such as a coin, paperclip or pen
in your pocket or bag may short-circuit
the + and – terminals of the battery
(metal strips on the battery) upon
moving. Short-circuiting of the terminal
may damage the battery and cause an
explosion.
Ź
Never place your phone in a microwave
oven as it will cause the battery to

11
Safety
Warning! Important Safety
Information
Avoiding hearing damage
Ź
Permanent hearing loss may occur if
you use your phone and/or headset at
a high volume. Set the volume to a safe
level. You can adapt over time to a higher
volume of sound that may sound normal
but can be damaging to your hearing. If
you experience ringing in your ears or
muffled speech, stop listening and have
your hearing checked. The louder the
volume, the less time is required before
your hearing could be affected. Hearing
experts suggest that to protect your
hearing:
Ź
Limit the amount of time you use your
phone and/or headset at high volume.
Ź
Avoid turning up the volume to block out
noisy surroundings.
12
Ź
Turn the volume down if you can’t hear
people speaking near you. For information
about how to set a maximum volume limit
on your phone, see the features guide for
your phone.
Using your phone safely
Use of your phone while operating a vehicle
is not recommended and is illegal in some
areas. Be careful and attentive while driving.
Stop using your phone if you find it disruptive
or distracting while operating any type of
vehicle or performing any other activity that
requires your full attention.
FDA Consumer Update
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s
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 Main Menu Screen. 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 radiationemitting 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 does not
justify FDA regulatory actions, the FDA has
urged the wireless phone industry to take a
number of steps, including the following:
Ź
Support needed research into possible
biological effects of RF of the type emitted
by wireless phones.
Ź
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
13
Safety
safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the
federal level. The following agencies belong
to this working group:
Ź
National Institute for Occupational Safety
and Health.
Ź
Environmental Protection Agency.
Ź
Occupational Safety and Health
Administration.
Ź
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 the wireless phones themselves do,
the RF exposures that people get from these
14
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. These RF exposures are
limited by FCC safety 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-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 long-term 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 is needed. Lifetime animal
15
Safety
exposure studies could be 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
16
high priority animal studies are conducted
to address important questions about the
effects of exposure to radio frequency 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 FCC established these guidelines in
consultation with 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 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.
17
Safety
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 radio frequency 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 exposure to radio frequency
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
18
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 does
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
radio frequency 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.

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 of the U.S. Government. These
20
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/IC is
1.6 W/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 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 government-adopted
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
0.77 W/kg and when worn on the body,
as described in this user guide, is 0.58 W/
kg (body-worn measurements differ among
phone models, depending upon available
accessories and FCC/IC 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/ea/fccid
after searching on FCC ID: ZNFLG440G
Additional information on Specific Absorption
Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association
(CTIA) website at http://www.ctia.org/
* 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.
* Product meets current FCC & IC Radio
Frequency Exposure Guidelines.

Safety
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn
operations with the back of the phone kept
1.5 cm (0.59 inches) between the user’s
body and the back of the phone. To comply
with FCC RF exposure requirements, a
minimum separation distance of 1.5 cm
(0.59 inches) must be maintained between
the user's body and the back of the phone.
Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar
accessories containing metallic components
may not be used. Body-worn accessories
that cannot maintain 1.5 cm (0.59 inches)
separation distance between the user's body
and the back of the phone, and have not
been tested for typical bodyworn operations
may not comply with FCC RF exposure limits
and should be avoided.

Informations de sécurité de
la TIA (Telecommunications
Industry Association)
La section qui suit présente les consignes de
sécurité de laTIA au sujet des téléphones
sans fil portatifs.
Exposition aux signaux de
radiofréquence
Votre téléphone sans fil portatif est
un émetteur-récepteur radio de faible
puissance. Lorsqu'il est SOUS TENSION,
il reçoit et émet des signauxRF
(radiofréquence). En août 1996, la Federal
Communications Commissions (FCC)
a adopté, en matière d'exposition aux
radiofréquences, des lignes directrices
établissant des niveaux de sécurité pour les
téléphones sans fil portatifs. Ces directives
s'inscrivent dans la foulée de la norme
de sécurité établie auparavant par les
organismes de normalisation des États-Unis
et des autres pays:
Ź
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
Ź
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
Ź
ICNIRP (1996)
Ź
Santé Canada, Code de sécurité 6, 1999.
Ces normes sont fondées sur des
évaluations périodiques complètes de
documents scientifiques pertinents. Ainsi,
plus de 120 scientifiques, ingénieurs et
médecins d'universités, d'organismes
de santé gouvernementaux et de divers
secteurs industriels ont passé en revue
les recherches disponibles pour créer la
norme ANSI (C95.1). La conception de votre
téléphone est conforme aux directives de
laFCC et aux règlementsd'IC (ainsi qu'à
ces normes).
Entretien de l'antenne
N'utilisez que l'antenne fournie ou une
antenne de rechange approuvée.
L'utilisation d'antennes ou d'accessoires non
approuvés ainsi que les modifications non
autorisées peuvent endommager l'appareil et
contrevenir aux règlements de laFCC.
5
Sécurité
Utilisation de l'appareil
POSITION NORMALE: Tenez le téléphone
cellulaire comme n'importe quel autre
téléphone, en veillant à ce que l'antenne
pointe vers le haut et par-dessus votre
épaule.
Conseils pour un
fonctionnement efficace
Pour que votre téléphone fonctionne le plus
efficacement possible:
Ne touchez pas l'antenne inutilement lorsque
vous utilisez l'appareil.
Tout contact avec l'antenne peut affecter
la qualité des appels et entraîner un
fonctionnement de l'appareil à un niveau de
puissance plus élevé que nécessaire.
Conduite automobile
Vérifiez les lois et la réglementation en
vigueur aux endroits où vous utilisez votre
téléphone sans fil en voiture, et respectez-les
en tout temps. Par ailleurs, si vous utilisez
votre téléphone lorsque vous conduisez,
veuillez suivre les règles ci-dessous:
6
Ź
Accordez toute votre attention à la
conduite de votre véhicule; votre
responsabilité principale est la prudence
au volant.
Ź
Utilisez le mode mains libres.
Appareils électroniques
La plupart des appareils électroniques
modernes sont blindés contre les signaux RF.
Cependant, il arrive que certains appareils
électroniques ne soient pas protégés contre
les signaux RF émis par votre téléphone.
Stimulateurs cardiaques
La Health Industry Manufacturers
Association recommande une distance
de 15cm (6po) entre un téléphone sans
fil portatif et un stimulateur cardiaque
pour éviter les interférences potentielles.
Ces recommandations sont conformes
aux recherches indépendantes et aux
recommandations des travaux de recherche
sur les technologies sans fil.
Les personnes portant un
stimulateur cardiaque
Ź
doivent TOUJOURS tenir le téléphone
à une distance d'au moins 15 cm de
leur stimulateur cardiaque lorsque le
téléphone est SOUS TENSION;
Ź
ne doivent pas transporter leur téléphone
dans une poche poitrine;
Ź
doivent utiliser l'oreille située de l'autre
côté de leur stimulateur cardiaque afin de
minimiser les risques d'interférences;
Ź
doivent, si elles ont quelque motif que
ce soit de soupçonner la présence
d'interférences, ÉTEINDRE leur téléphone
sur-le-champ.
Prothèses auditives
Certains téléphones numériques sans fil
créent des interférences avec certaines
prothèses auditives. Dans un tel cas, vous
pouvez consulter votre fournisseur de
services ou appeler le service à la clientèle
pour trouver des solutions de rechange.
Facultatif pour chaque fabricant de
téléphones.
Autres appareils médicaux
Si vous utilisez tout autre appareil médical,
consultez son fabricant pour savoir si
l'appareil en question est convenablement
blindé contre l'énergie des radiofréquences
externes. Votre médecin pourra également
vous aider à obtenir ce renseignement.
Établissements de soins de santé
Éteignez toujours votre téléphone dans les
établissements de soins de santé lorsque les
règlements affichés vous invitent à le faire.
Les hôpitaux et autres établissements de
soins de santé utilisent parfois des appareils
sensibles à l'énergie des radiofréquences
externes.
Véhicules
Dans les véhicules, les signaux RF peuvent
affecter les systèmes électroniques mal
installés ou insuffisamment blindés. Vérifiez
ce qu'il en est auprès du fabricant ou
du représentant. Vous devez également
consulter le fabricant de tout matériel ajouté
à votre véhicule.
7
Sécurité
Avis affichés
Éteignez votre appareil dans les
établissements où des avis vous invitent à
le faire.
Avion
La réglementation de Transport Canada et
de laFCC interdit l'utilisation des téléphones
cellulaires à bord des avions. Mettez votre
appareil HORS TENSION avant de monter à
bord d'un avion.
Zones de dynamitage
Pour éviter de créer des interférences lors
d'opérations de dynamitage, ÉTEIGNEZ
votre téléphone lorsque vous vous trouvez
dans une zone de dynamitage ou dans
toute zone où on vous invite à «éteindre les
radios bidirectionnelles». Obéissez à toutes
les consignes et à toutes les directives
affichées.
8
Zone avec risque de
déflagration
ÉTEIGNEZ votre téléphone dans les zones
où il y a risque de déflagration; obéissez
à toutes les consignes et à toutes les
directives affichées. Dans de telles zones,
une étincelle peut provoquer une explosion
ou un incendie entraînant des blessures,
voire la mort.
Ces zones sont habituellement, mais pas
toujours, clairement identifiées. Parmi cellesci on notera les postes de ravitaillement
(stations-service, par exemple), les cales
de bateaux, les installations de transfert ou
de stockage de combustible ou de produits
chimiques, les véhicules utilisant des gaz
de pétrole liquéfié (comme le propane ou le
butane), les zones où des produits chimiques
ou des particules (poussières de grain ou
autre, poudres métalliques) sont présents
dans l'atmosphère ainsi que toute autre
zone où vous devriez normalement arrêter le
moteur de votre véhicule.
Véhicules dotés de coussins
gonflables
Lorsqu'ils se gonflent, les coussins
gonflables produisent un fort impact.
NE PLACEZ PAS d'objets, y compris les
appareils sans fil installés ou portatifs,
au-dessus d'un compartiment de coussin
gonflable ni dans la zone de déploiement
du coussin. Le gonflement de tels coussins
dans un véhicule où un appareil sans fil est
mal installé peut entraîner des blessures
graves.
Sécurité pour l'adaptateur et le
chargeur
Ź
Le chargeur et l'adaptateur sont conçus
pour être utilisés à l'intérieur seulement.
Ź
N'exposez pas l'adaptateur ni le
chargeur à la lumière directe du soleil
et ne l'utilisez pas dans les endroits très
humides comme les salles de bain.
Information sur la batterie et
soins de la batterie
Ź
Veuillez jeter la batterie de façon
appropriée ou rapportez-la à votre
fournisseur de services sans fil pour qu'il
la recycle.
Ź
Ne jetez pas la batterie au feu ni avec des
matières dangereuses ou inflammables.
Ź
N'utilisez jamais une batterie non
approuvée; cela pourrait endommager le
téléphone et faire exploser la batterie.
Ź
Il n'est pas nécessaire que la batterie
soit complètement déchargée avant de
la recharger.
Ź
Utilisez uniquement un chargeur approuvé
par LG et conçu pour votre modèle de
téléphone; les chargeurs sont conçus
pour maximiser la durée de vie de la
batterie.
Ź
Ne démontez pas la batterie et ne la
court-circuitez pas.
Ź
Veillez à ce que les contacts de métal
demeurent propres.
9
Sécurité
Ź
Lorsque la batterie n'offre plus un
rendement acceptable, remplacez-la. La
batterie peut être rechargée plusieurs
centaines de fois avant d'être remplacée.
Ź
Pour maximiser la vie de la batterie,
rechargez-la après une longue période
d'inactivité.
Ź
La durée de vie de la batterie varie
selon les habitudes d'utilisation et les
conditions environnementales.
Ź
Une utilisation intensive du rétroéclairage,
du mini-navigateur et de la trousse de
connexion pour transmission de données
diminue la durée de vie de la batterie et
du temps d'attente et de conversation.
Consignes de sécurité
Veuillez lire et suivre les directives suivantes
afin d'utiliser votre appareil de façon sûre et
d'éviter de l'endommager. Après avoir lu ce
guide, conservez-le à portée de main.
10
Explosion, choc et incendie
Ź
Débranchez le cordon d'alimentation et le
chargeur pendant les orages pour éviter
les chocs électriques et les incendies.
Ź
Veillez à ce qu'aucun objet pointu (dents
d'animaux, clous, etc.) n'entre en contact
avec la batterie, car cela pourrait causer
un incendie.
Ź
N'utilisez pas de produits chimiques
forts (comme de l'alcool, du benzène,
des diluants, etc.) ni de détergents pour
nettoyer votre téléphone, car cela pourrait
causer un incendie.
Ź
Ne manipulez pas votre téléphone avec
des mains mouillées pendant qu'il se
charge. Vous pourriez vous électrocuter
ou endommager le téléphone.
Ź
Évitez de laisser tomber le téléphone
par terre, de le frapper ou de le secouer
fortement. Le choc ou les vibrations
pourraient endommager les circuits
électroniques du téléphone.
Ź
Ne rangez pas votre appareil dans les
endroits excessivement poussiéreux et
veillez à ce que le cordon d'alimentation
se trouve à la distance minimale prescrite
de toute source de chaleur.
Ź
Débranchez le cordon d'alimentation
avant de nettoyer votre téléphone
et nettoyez les broches du cordons
lorsqu'elles sont sales.
Ź
N'endommagez pas le cordon en le pliant,
en le tordant, en le tirant ou en l'exposant
à la chaleur. N'utilisez pas la fiche si elle
est desserrée car cela pourrait causer un
incendie ou un choc électrique.
Ź
Lorsque vous utilisez le cordon
d'alimentation, assurez-vous que la
fiche est bien branchée. Une fiche mal
branchée peut provoquer une chaleur
excessive, voire un incendie.
Ź
Ne placez pas d'objets lourds sur le
cordon d'alimentation. Veillez à ce que le
cordon d'alimentation ne soit pas plié afin
d'éviter tout risque d'incendie et de choc
électrique.
Ź
Ne démontez pas le téléphone.
Ź
N'établissez pas des appels et ne
répondez pas à des appels lorsque le
téléphone est en train de se recharger; il
pourrait se produire un court-circuit, un
choc électrique ou un incendie.
Ź
Si vous placez votre téléphone dans
une poche ou un sac sans avoir couvert
la prise d'alimentation, des articles en
métal peuvent court-circuiter l'appareil.
Couvrez toujours la prise lorsqu'elle n'est
pas utilisée.
Ź
Ne court-circuitez pas la batterie. Les
articles en métal, comme les pièces de
monnaie, les trombones ou les stylos
peuvent court-circuiter les pôles + et
– de la batterie (bandes de métal de la
batterie) lorsque vous bougez. Un courtcircuit des pôles peut endommager la
batterie et causer une explosion.
Ź
Ne placez jamais l'appareil dans un four
à micro-ondes car la batterie risque
d'exploser.
11
Sécurité
Avertissements et précautions
d'ordre général
Ź
Utilisez uniquement les batteries, les
antennes et les chargeurs fournis par
LG. La garantie n'est pas valide si vous
utilisez des produits provenant d'autres
fournisseurs.
Ź

Avertissement! Consignes de
sécurité importantes
Prévention par rapport à la
diminution de l'acuité auditive
Ź
Vous pouvez perdre définitivement
l'ouïe si vous utilisez un téléphone ou
un casque à un volume élevé. Réglez le
volume à un niveau raisonnable. Avec le
temps, vous vous habituez à un volume
sonore qui vous paraît normal, mais qui
peut entraîner une diminution de l'acuité
auditive. Si vous entendez des sifflements
dans l'oreille ou que les paroles de vos
interlocuteurs vous semblent étouffées,
arrêtez d'utiliser votre téléphone et votre
casque et consultez un médecin. Plus le
volume est élevé, moins il faut de temps
pour que votre acuité auditive diminue.
Voici quelques conseils des spécialistes
auditifs pour vous aider à vous protéger:
Ź
Limitez le temps passé à utiliser votre
téléphone ou votre casque d'écoute à un
volume élevé.
13
Sécurité
Ź
Évitez d'augmenter le volume pour couvrir
le bruit ambiant.
Ź
Baissez le volume si vous n'entendez pas
les personnes qui parlent à côté de vous.
Pour de l'information sur le réglage de
la limite maximum du volume de votre
téléphone, reportez-vous au guide des
fonctions de ce dernier.
Utilisation du téléphone en
toute sécurité
Il est déconseillé, et illégal dans certaines
régions, d'utiliser le téléphone au volant d'un
véhicule en mouvement. Soyez prudent et
vigilant lorsque vous conduisez.
N'utilisez pas votre téléphone si vous voyez
qu'il vous dérange ou vous distrait lorsque
vous êtes au volant de n'importe quel type
de véhicule ou lorsque vous exercez toute
autre activité qui requiert votre plus grande
attention.

Informations de la FDA à
l'intention des consommateurs
Renseignements sur les téléphones
cellulaires émanant du Center for Devices
and Radiological Health de la U.S. Food and
Drug Administration:
1. Les téléphones sans fil sont-ils
dangereux pour la santé?
Les preuves scientifiques actuelles ne
démontrent pas de risques pour la santé
associés à l'usage des téléphones sans
fil. Toutefois, il n'existe aucune preuve que
ces appareils soient absolument sûrs. Les
téléphones sans fil, lorsqu'on les utilise,
émettent de faibles niveaux d'énergie de
radiofréquences (RF) dans la plage des
micro-ondes. En outre, ils émettent de
très faibles quantités de radiofréquences
en mode d'écran du menu principal. Bien
que l'exposition à des niveaux élevés
de radiofréquences puisse affecter la
santé (en raison du réchauffement des
tissus), l'exposition à de faibles niveaux
de radiofréquences ne produisant aucun
réchauffement n'entraîne aucun effet
indésirable connu sur la santé. De
nombreuses études portant sur l'exposition à
de faibles niveaux de radiofréquences n'ont
relevé aucun effet biologique. Certaines
études ont suggéré qu'il est possible que
certains effets biologiques se produisent,
mais ces conclusions n'ont pas été
confirmées par d'autres recherches. Dans
certains cas, d'autres chercheurs ont eu du
mal à reproduire ces études ou à identifier
les causes à l'origine de l'incohérence des
résultats.
2. Quel rôle joue la FDA en ce qui
concerne l'innocuité des téléphones
sans fil?
Selon la loi, contrairement à ce qu'elle
fait pour les nouveaux médicaments et
appareils médicaux, laFDA ne vérifie pas
si les produits de consommation émettant
des radiations (dont les téléphones sans fil)
sont sûrs avant qu'ils puissent être vendus.
La FDA peut toutefois prendre les mesures
nécessaires s'il est démontré que des
téléphones sans fil émettent de l'énergie de
radiofréquences (RF) à un niveau dangereux
pour l'utilisateur. Dans un tel cas, la FDA
peut exiger du fabricant qu'il signale aux
utilisateurs ces risques pour la santé et qu'il
répare, remplace ou rappelle les téléphones
en question de façon à éliminer ces risques.
Bien que les données scientifiques
actuelles ne justifient aucune initiative de
réglementation de la part de la FDA, cette
dernière a toutefois vivement conseillé au
secteur de la téléphonie sans fil de prendre
certaines mesures, dont les suivantes:
Ź
Soutenir les recherches portant sur les
effets biologiques potentiels du type
de radiofréquences émises par les
téléphones sans fil;
Ź
Concevoir des téléphones sans fil pouvant
minimiser l'exposition de l'utilisateur
aux radiofréquences non nécessaires au
fonctionnement de l'appareil; et fournir
aux utilisateurs de téléphones sans fil la
meilleure information possible relative
aux effets potentiels de ces appareils sur
la santé.
La FDA fait partie d'un groupe de travail
interorganismes au niveau fédéral dont les
15
Sécurité
responsabilités couvrent divers aspects de
la sécurité relative aux radiofréquences et
qui assure la coordination des efforts au
niveau fédéral. Les organismes suivants font
également partie de ce groupe de travail:
Ź
National Institute for Occupational Safety
and Health.
Ź
Environmental Protection Agency.
Ź
Occupational Safety and Health
Administration.
Ź
National Telecommunications and
Information Administration.
Le National Institutes of Health participe
également à certaines des activités du
groupe. La FDA partage ses responsabilités
en matière de réglementation des
téléphones sans fil avec la Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). Tous
les téléphones vendus aux États-Unis
doivent être conformes aux directives de
sécurité de la FCC en ce qui concerne les
limites d'exposition aux radiofréquences.
La FCC s'en remet à la FDA et aux autres
organismes de santé pour ce qui est des
questions d'innocuité des téléphones
16
sans fil. La FCC réglemente également
les stations de base dont dépendent les
réseaux de téléphonie sans fil. Bien que
ces stations fonctionnent à une puissance
plus élevée que les téléphones sans fil, elles
n'exposent habituellement les utilisateurs
qu'à des radiofréquences des milliers de
fois inférieures à celles émises par les
téléphones proprement dits. L'innocuité des
stations de base n'est donc pas abordée
dans ce document.
3. Quels types de téléphones sont visés
ici?
L'expression téléphone sans fil désigne les
téléphones sans fil portatifs dotés d'une
antenne intégrée; on les appelle également
téléphone cellulaire, téléphone mobile et
téléphoneSCP. Ces types de téléphones
sans fil peuvent exposer l'utilisateur à une
énergie de radiofréquences (RF) mesurable
en raison de la courte distance entre le
téléphone et la tête de l'utilisateur. Ces
expositions aux radiofréquences sont limitées
en raison des directives de sécurité émanant
de la FCC, qui ont été élaborées sur les
conseils de la FDA et d'autres organismes
de santé et de sécurité. Lorsque le téléphone
est situé à une plus grande distance de
l'utilisateur, l'exposition aux radiofréquences
diminue considérablement car cette
diminution se fait rapidement au fur et à
mesure qu'augmente la distance par rapport
à la source d'émission. Les téléphones dits
«sans fil» qui sont dotés d'une unité de
base branchée au câblage téléphonique
d'une maison fonctionnent généralement à
des niveaux de puissance beaucoup moins
élevés et, par conséquent, entraînent une
exposition aux radiofréquences bien en deçà
des limites de sécurité fixées par laFCC.
4. Quels sont les résultats des
recherches déjà effectuées?
Les recherches effectuées jusqu'à présent
ont donné des résultats contradictoires
et nombre de ces études présentaient
des failles sur le plan des méthodes de
recherche appliquées.
L'expérimentation animale portant sur
les effets de l'exposition à l'énergie des
radiofréquences (RF) caractéristique des
téléphones sans fil a également débouché
sur des résultats contradictoires qui,
souvent, ne peuvent pas être reproduits
dans d'autres laboratoires. Quelques études
chez l'animal suggèrent toutefois qu'à de
faibles niveaux, les radiofréquences peuvent
accélérer le développement du cancer chez
les animaux de laboratoire. Cependant, un
grand nombre d'études ayant démontré un
développement accéléré des tumeurs ont
utilisé des animaux génétiquement modifiés
ou traités à l'aide de produits chimiques
cancérigènes de façon à être prédisposés au
cancer, même en l'absence d'exposition à
des radiofréquences. Dans le cadre d'autres
17
Sécurité
études, les animaux étaient exposés aux
radiofréquences pendant des périodes
pouvant aller jusqu'à 22 heures par jour.
Étant donné que de telles conditions sont
différentes des conditions dans lesquelles
les gens utilisent les téléphones sans fil,
nous ne savons pas avec certitude si les
résultats de ces recherches s'appliquent à
la santé de l'homme. Trois grandes études
épidémiologiques ont été publiées depuis
décembre 2000. Ces études portaient sur
l'association possible entre l'utilisation
du téléphone sans fil et le cancer primitif
du cerveau, le gliome, le méningiome, le
névrome acoustique, les tumeurs du cerveau
ou des glandes salivaires, la leucémie
et divers autres cancers. Aucune de ces
études n'a démontré l'existence d'effets
nocifs sur la santé suite à l'exposition aux
radiofréquences émises par les téléphones
sans fil.
Cependant, aucune de ces études ne
répond aux questions relatives aux effets
à long terme d'une exposition à ces
radiofréquences puisque la période moyenne
d'exposition utilisée dans le cadre de ces
18
recherches était de trois ans environ.
5. Quelles recherches doit-on mener
pour déterminer si l'exposition aux
radiofréquences émises par les
téléphones sans fil est nocive pour
la santé?
Une combinaison d'études en laboratoire
et d'études épidémiologiques portant
sur les utilisateurs de téléphones sans
fil pourrait fournir certaines des données
nécessaires. Des études portant sur
l'exposition permanente d'animaux à ces
radiofréquences pourraient être achevées
dans quelques années. Toutefois, il
faudrait utiliser un très grand nombre
d'animaux pour obtenir une preuve fiable
d'un effet cancérigène, s'il y en a un. Les
études épidémiologiques peuvent fournir
des données pouvant être appliquées
directement aux populations humaines,
mais il faut parfois effectuer un suivi sur
une période de 10 ans ou plus pour obtenir
des réponses au sujet des effets sur la
santé (dont le cancer). Ceci découle du fait
qu'il faut parfois compter de nombreuses
années entre le moment de l'exposition à
un agent cancérigène et le développement
d'une tumeur, le cas échéant. Par ailleurs,
l'interprétation des études épidémiologiques
est gênée par la difficulté qu'il y a à mesurer
l'exposition réelle aux radiofréquences dans
le cadre d'une utilisation au jour le jour des
téléphones sans fil. De nombreux facteurs
affectent ces mesures, dont l'angle selon
lequel le téléphone est tenu et le modèle de
l'appareil utilisé.
6. Que fait la FDA pour en apprendre
davantage sur les effets potentiels
sur la santé des radiofréquences
émises par les téléphones sans fil?
La FDA collabore avec le U.S. National
Toxicology Program ainsi qu'avec des
groupes d'investigateurs du monde entier
pour veiller à ce que les études les plus
importantes chez l'animal soient menées
de façon à traiter les questions importantes
relatives aux effets de l'exposition à l'énergie
des radiofréquences (RF). La FDA est un des
principaux participants au Projet international
pour l'étude des champs électromagnétiques
ou Projet EMF depuis ses débuts en 1996.
Un résultat influent de ce projet a été la
création d'une liste détaillée des besoins en
matière de recherche, ce qui a entraîné la
mise sur pied de nouveaux programmes de
recherche partout dans le monde. Ce projet
a également permis d'élaborer une série de
documents d'information, destinés au public,
portant sur les champs électromagnétiques.
La FDA et la Cellular Telecommunications
& Internet Association (CTIA) ont conclu un
accord officiel de coopération en matière de
recherche et développement (Cooperative
Research and Development Agreement ou
CRADA) en vue de mener des recherches
sur l'innocuité des téléphones sans fil.
La FDA assure la supervision scientifique
par l'obtention de l'opinion de spécialistes
du gouvernement, de l'industrie et des
organismes académiques. Les recherches
financées par la CTIA sont menées dans
le cadre de contrats conclus avec des
investigateurs indépendants. Les travaux
initiaux comprennent des études en
laboratoire et des études menées auprès
d'utilisateurs de téléphones sans fil. Le
19
Sécurité
CRADA couvre également une évaluation
large des autres besoins en matière de
recherche dans le contexte des plus récents
développements dans ce domaine, partout
dans le monde.
7. Comment puis-je connaître mon
propre niveau d'exposition aux
radiofréquences lorsque j'utilise mon
téléphone sans fil?
Tous les téléphones vendus aux États-Unis
doivent être conformes aux directives de la
Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
en matière de limites d'exposition à l'énergie
des radiofréquences (RF). La FCC a établi
ces directives en collaboration avec la FDA
et d'autres organismes fédéraux de santé
et de sécurité. La limite fixée par la FCC en
matière d'exposition aux RF émises par les
téléphones sans fil a été établie en fonction
d'un débit d'absorption spécifique (DAS)
de 1,6watt par kilogramme (1,6W/kg). La
limite établie par la FCC est conforme aux
normes de sécurité de l'Institute of Electrical
and Electronic Engineering (IEEE) et du
National Council on Radiation Protection and
20
Measurement. Cette limite d'exposition tient
compte de la capacité du corps humain à
évacuer la chaleur des tissus qui absorbent
l'énergie émise par les téléphones cellulaires
et a été fixée de façon à être largement
en-deçà des niveaux connus pour avoir
des effets. Les fabricants de téléphones
sans fil doivent indiquer à la FCC le niveau
d'exposition aux RF de chacun de leurs
modèles de téléphone. Consultez le site
Web de la FCC (http://www.fcc.gov/oet/
rfsafety) pour savoir comment trouver le
numéro d'identification de la FCC sur votre
téléphone. Ce numéro permet ensuite de
trouver, dans la liste disponible en ligne, le
niveau d'exposition aux radiofréquences
correspondant.
