FCC RF Exposure Information

WARNING!

Read this information before operating the phone.

In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States, with its action in Report
and Order FCC 96-326, adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF)
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety
standard previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies.
The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.

CAUTION

Use only the supplied and approved antenna. Use of unauthorized antennas or modifications could impair call
quality, damage the phone, void your warranty and/or result in violation of FCC regulations. Do not use the phone
with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with skin, a minor burn may result. Contact
your local dealer for a replacement antenna.

Body-worn Operation

This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 1 cm (0.39 inches)
between the user’s body and the back of the phone. To comply with FCC/IC RF exposure requirements, a
minimum separation distance of 1 cm (0.39 inches) must be maintained between the user’s body and the back
of the phone.

6

Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components may not be used.
Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain 1 cm (0.39 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/IC RF exposure
limits and should be avoided.

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 owner’s 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 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:
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; National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements;
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
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.

9

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. 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.

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.

10

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.

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.

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 regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Turn your phone OFF before boarding an aircraft.

11

Blasting Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a ‘blasting areas or in areas posted:
‘Turn off two-way radio’. Obey all signs and instructions.

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.

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.

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 guide in an accessible place at all times after reading it.

Charger and Adapter Safety

• The charger and adapter are intended for indoor use only.

12

Battery Information and Care

• Please dispose of your battery properly or take it to your local wireless carrier for recycling.

• The battery does not need to be fully discharged before recharging.

• Use only LG-approved chargers specific to your phone model since they are designed to maximize battery life.

• Do not disassemble or impact the battery as it may cause electric shock, short-circuit, and fire. Store the

battery in a place out of reach of children.

• Replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. The battery can be recharged several

hundred times before replacement.

• Recharge the battery after long periods of non-use to maximize battery life.

• Battery life will vary due to usage patterns and environmental conditions.

• Use of extended backlighting, Media Net Browsing, and data connectivity kits affect battery life and talk/

standby times.

• Actual battery life will depend on network configuration, product settings, usage patterns, battery and

environmental conditions.

• Always unplug the charger from the wall socket after the phone is fully charged to save unnecessary power

consumption of the charger.

Explosion, Shock, and Fire Hazards

• 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.

• Unplug the power cord prior to cleaning your phone, and clean the power plug pin when it is dirty.

• When using the power plug, ensure that it is firmly connected. If it is not, it may cause excessive heat or fire.

• 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 shortcircuit the phone. Always cover the receptacle
when not in use.

• 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.

13

General Notice

• Using a damaged battery or placing a battery in your mouth may cause serious injury.

• Do not place items containing magnetic components such as a credit card, phone card, bank book or subway

ticket near your phone. The magnetism of the phone may damage the data stored in the magnetic strip.

battery which should be replaced only by LG or an authorized LG repair centre. You should never attempt to
open or disassemble this device yourself and doing so may cause damage that will void your warranty.

FDA Consumer Update

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration Centre 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
radio frequency 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

14

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 radio frequency 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 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 (Administración de la seguridad y salud laborales)

• 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.

15

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

The term ‘wireless phone’ refers here to handheld wireless phones with builtin 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 predisposed 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 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.

16

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 radiofrequency 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 radiofrequency 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 radiofrequency energy coming from wireless phones?

The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical standard for measuring the
radiofrequency 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. 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.

17

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
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 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 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?

Radiofrequency 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

18

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.

2. When available, use a handsfree device. A number of handsfree 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

19

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!

9. Use your wireless phone to help others in 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 non-emergency 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 radiofrequency (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

20

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 1.6 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 values are:
* Head: 0.77 W/kg
* Body (Body-worn/Hotspot): 1.18 W/kg (Body measurements differ among phone 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/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID:
ZNFMS395.
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.
FCC ID: ZNFMS395
IC ID: 2703C-D393

Pour votre sécurité

Renseignements importants

Ce guide contient des renseignements importants sur l'utilisation et le fonctionnement de ce téléphone. Veuillez
lire chaque page attentivement pour obtenir un rendement optimal, pour éviter d'endommager l'appareil et pour
l'utiliser correctement. Les modifications apportées à l’appareil qui ne sont pas expressément approuvées dans
ce guide peuvent annuler la garantie correspondante.

Avant de commencer

Directives de sécurité

AVERTISSEMENT!

Afin de minimiser les risques de choc électrique, n'exposez pas l'appareil à une forte
humidité (salles de bain, piscines, etc.).

Rangez toujours l'appareil loin de la chaleur. Ne rangez jamais votre appareil à un endroit où il pourrait
être exposé à une température de moins de 0°C ni de plus de 40°C, comme à l'extérieur lors de conditions
climatiques sévères ou dans votre voiture en été. L’exposition de l’appareil à une chaleur ou à un froid excessif
peut entraîner un mauvais fonctionnement, des dommages ou des pannes graves.
Faites preuve de prudence si vous utilisez l'appareil près d'autres appareils électroniques. Les émissions
RF de votre téléphone cellulaire peuvent nuire aux appareils électroniques à proximité lorsque ceux-ci ne sont
pas convenablement blindés. Consultez, s'il y a lieu, les fabricants des appareils médicaux personnels utilisés
(stimulateur cardiaque et prothèse auditive, par exemple) pour savoir si votre téléphone peut provoquer des
interférences.
Éteignez toujours votre appareil dans les établissements de soins de santé ainsi que dans les stations-service.
Ne placez jamais votre téléphone dans un four à micro-ondes car la batterie risque d'exploser.

Consignes de sécurité

Veuillez prendre connaissance de ces directives simples. Il peut être dangereux, voire illégal de ne pas suivre les
règles. Ce guide de l’utilisateur fournit des renseignements détaillés à ce propos.

• N'utilisez jamais une batterie non approuvée; cela pourrait endommager le téléphone et faire exploser la

batterie.

• Ne placez jamais l'appareil dans un four à micro-ondes car la batterie risque d'exploser.

4

• Votre téléphone contient une batterie interne. Ne jetez pas la pile au feu ni avec des matières dangereuses ou

inflammables.

• Veillez à ce qu'aucun objet pointu n'entre en contact avec la batterie, car cela pourrait causer un incendie.

• Conservez la batterie hors de la portée des enfants.

• Veillez à ce que les enfants n'avalent pas de pièces comme des bouchons de caoutchouc (écouteur, pièces de

connexion, etc.), qui peuvent présenter des risques d'asphyxiation ou de suffocation.

• Débranchez le cordon d’alimentation et le chargeur pendant les orages électriques pour éviter les chocs

électriques et les incendies.

• En voiture, ne laissez pas votre téléphone ou l'ensemble des mains libres près du sac gonflable. Le

déploiement du sac gonflable pourrait causer de graves blessures lorsque l'équipement sans fil est mal
installé.

• N'utilisez pas le combiné lorsque vous conduisez.

• N'utilisez pas le téléphone dans les endroits où son usage est interdit. (Par exemple : dans les avions.)

• 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.

• N'exposez jamais l'appareil à une température inférieure à-20°C ou supérieure à50°C.

• 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.

• 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.

• N'utilisez pas votre appareil dans les endroits où il y a risque d'explosion car il peut émettre des étincelles.

• 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 prise de courant si elle est desserrée car cela pourrait causer un incendie ou un choc

électrique.

• Ne placez pas d’objets lourds sur le cordon d’alimentation. Veillez que le cordon d'alimentation ne soit pas plié

afin d’éviter tout risque d’incendie et de choc électrique.

• Ne manipulez pas votre téléphone avec des mains mouillées pendant qu'il se charge. Vous pourriez vous

électrocuter ou endommager le téléphone.

• Ne démontez pas le téléphone.

• 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.

• 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.

• Seul le personnel autorisé peut réparer le téléphone et ses accessoires. Une installation ou une réparation

5

incorrecte pourrait causer des accidents et annuler la garantie.

• Pendant un appel, ne tenez pas l'antenne de l'appareil et évitez également que celle-ci entre en contact avec

votre corps.

• Les appels d'urgence ne peuvent être faits que dans une zone de service. Avant d'effectuer un appel

d'urgence, assurez-vous que vous êtes dans une zone de service et que le téléphone est allumé.

• Faites preuve de prudence lorsque vous utilisez des accessoires comme un écouteur ou un casque d'écoute.

Assurez-vous que les câbles sont placés en toutes sécurités et ne touchez pas inutilement à l’antenne.

Renseignements de la FCC au sujet de l'exposition aux
radiofréquences

AVERTISSEMENT!

Lisez ces paragraphes avant d'utiliser votre appareil.

Au mois d’août 1996, la Federal Communications Commission (FCC) des États-Unis a, par l’intermédiaire d’un
document intitulé Report and Order FCC 96-326, adopté et mis à jour la norme de sécurité en ce qui concerne
l’exposition des personnes à l’énergie électromagnétique des radiofréquences (RF) émanant des émetteurs
réglementés par la FCC. 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.
La conception de cet appareil est conforme aux directives de la FCC ainsi qu'à ces normes internationales.

MISE EN GARDE

N’utilisez que l’antenne approuvée fournie. L'utilisation d'antennes non approuvées ainsi que les modifications
non autorisées peuvent affecter la qualité des appels, endommager l'appareil, annuler la garantie ou contrevenir
aux règlements de la FCC. N'utilisez pas l'appareil si l'antenne est endommagée. Une antenne endommagée
qui entre en contact avec la peau peut provoquer une brûlure légère. Communiquez, au besoin, avec votre
fournisseur pour obtenir une antenne de rechange.

Utilisation comme appareil portatif

Ce téléphone a été testé en vue d'une utilisation type comme appareil portatif, avec une distance de 1cm
(0,39po) entre l'arrière de l'appareil et le corps de l'utilisateur. Pour satisfaire aux exigences de laFCC/IC en
matière d'exposition aux radiofréquences, l'utilisateur doit maintenir une distance d'au moins 1cm (0,39po)

6

entre son corps et l'arrière du téléphone.
Les pinces de ceinture, les étuis et autres accessoires semblables d'autres marques et contenant des
composantes métalliques ne peuvent pas être utilisés.
Les accessoires portatifs qui empêchent le maintien d'une distance de 1cm (0,39po) entre le corps de
l'utilisateur et l'arrière du téléphone et qui n'ont pas été testés en vue d'une utilisation type comme accessoires
portatifs peuvent ne pas satisfaire aux limites d'exposition aux radiofréquences stipulées par laFCC/IC et, par
conséquent, ne doivent pas être utilisés.

Déclaration de la section 15.19 (États-Unis) et
exigences RSS générales

Cet appareil est conforme à la section 15 du règlement de la FCC at aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables
aux appareils radio exempts de licence.
L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes :
(1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et
(2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est

susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.

Mises en garde au sujet de la pile

• Ne la démontez pas.

• Ne la court-circuitez pas.

• Ne pas l'exposer à des températures trop hautes: 140°F (60°C).

• Ne l’incinérez pas.

Élimination des piles usées

• Veuillez jeter la pile de façon appropriée ou retournez-la à votre fournisseur de services sans fil pour recyclage.

• Votre téléphone contient une batterie interne. Ne jetez pas la pile au feu ni avec des matières dangereuses ou

inflammables.

7

Mises en garde au sujet de l’adaptateur (chargeur)

• L'utilisation d'un chargeur de batterie qui n'est pas conçus pour votre appareil peut endommager l'appareil et

annuler la garantie.

• L’adaptateur, ou chargeur de batterie, ne doit être utilisé qu’à l’intérieur.

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.

Évitez d’endommager votre ouïe.

• Votre acuité auditive peut être endommagée si vous êtes exposé à un son fort pendant des longues périodes

de temps. Par conséquent, nous vous recommandons de ne pas allumer ou éteindre le combiné près de
votre oreille. Nous vous recommandons aussi de régler le volume de la musique et des appels à un niveau
raisonnable.

• Si vous écoutez de la musique pendant que vous vaquez à d’autres occupations, assurez-vous que le volume

est réglé à un niveau raisonnable afin que vous puissiez demeurer conscient de votre environnement. Cela est
particulièrement important quand vous traversez une rue.

Directives de sécurité

Consignes de sécurité de la TIA

Vous trouverez dans les pages qui suivent les consignes de sécurité de la TIA au sujet des téléphones sans
fil portatifs. L’inclusion, dans le guide d’utilisation, des paragraphes concernant les stimulateurs cardiaques,
les prothèses auditives et autres appareils médicaux est obligatoire pour l’obtention de l’homologation CTIA.
L’utilisation des autres textes de la TIA est encouragée s’il y a lieu.

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 signaux RF (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 sont conformes aux normes de sécurité établies auparavant par les organismes de normalisation
américains et internationaux:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
Ces normes sont fondées sur des évaluations périodiques et complètes des 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).
*American National Standards Institute; National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements;
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
La conception de votre téléphone est conforme aux directives de la FCC (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 la FCC.

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. Respectez
toujours ces règlements. Par ailleurs, si vous utilisez votre téléphone lorsque vous conduisez:

• Accordez toute votre attention à la conduite de votre véhicule; votre responsabilité principale est la prudence

au volant ;

• Utilisez le mode mains libres, si vous avez accès à cette fonction ;

• Si les conditions de la circulation l'exigent, arrêtez-vous et stationnez votre véhicule avant d'effectuer ou de

répondre à un appel.

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 15cm (6po) 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

10

recherche sur les technologies sans fil. Les personnes portant un stimulateur cardiaque:

• doivent TOUJOURS tenir le téléphone à une distance d'au moins 15cm (6po) de leur stimulateur cardiaque

lorsque le téléphone est SOUS TENSION;

• ne doivent pas transporter leur téléphone dans une poche poitrine;

• doivent utiliser l’oreille située de l’autre côté de leur stimulateur cardiaque afin de minimiser les risques

d’interférences;

• 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 devez consulter votre fournisseur de services.

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.

Avis affichés

Éteignez votre appareil dans les établissements où des avis vous invitent à le faire.

Avion

La réglementation de la FCC interdit l'utilisation des téléphones cellulaires à bord des avions. Mettez toujours
votre appareil HORS TENSION lorsque vous montez 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.

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 ces 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 celles-ci on notera les postes de
ravitaillement (stations-service, par exemple), les cales de bateaux, les installations de transfert ou de stockage
de combustibles 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 toutes autres zones 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.

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 dans un endroit facile d’accès.

Sécurité pour l’adaptateur et le chargeur

• Le chargeur et l’adaptateur sont conçus pour être utilisés à l’intérieur seulement.

Information sur la batterie et soins de la batterie

• Veuillez jeter la batterie de façon appropriée ou retournez-la à votre fournisseur de services sans fil pour qu’il

la recycle.

• Il n’est pas nécessaire que la batterie soit complètement déchargée avant de la recharger.

• 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.

• Ne démontez pas la batterie et veillez à la protéger des chocs pour éviter tout risque de choc électrique, de

court-circuit et d’incendie. Conservez la batterie hors de la portée des enfants.

• Lorsque la batterie n’offre plus un rendement acceptable, remplacez-la. La batterie peut être rechargée

plusieurs centaines de fois avant d'être remplacée.

• Pour maximiser la vie de la batterie, rechargez-la après une longue période d’inactivité.

• La durée de vie de la batterie varie selon les habitudes d’utilisation et les conditions environnementales.

• Une utilisation intensive du rétroéclairage, du navigateur Media Net ou de la trousse de connexion

pour transmission de données diminue la durée de vie de la batterie ainsi que le temps d’attente et de
conversation.

• La durée de vie de la batterie dépend de la configuration du réseau, des paramètres du produit, des habitudes

d’utilisation, l’état de la batterie et des conditions environnantes.

• Débranchez systématiquement le chargeur de la prise murale lorsque le chargement de la batterie est terminé

pour éviter qu'il ne consomme inutilement de l'énergie.

Explosion, choc et incendie

• 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.

• Débranchez le cordon d'alimentation avant de nettoyer votre téléphone et nettoyez les broches du cordons

lorsqu'elles sont sales.

• Lorsque vous utilisez le cordon d’alimentation, assurez-vous que la prise est bien branchée. Une prise mal

branchée peut provoquer une chaleur excessive, voire un incendie.

• Si vous placez votre téléphone dans une poche ou un sac sans avoir couvert la prise d'alimentation, des

articles en métal (comme les pièces de monnaie, les trombones ou les stylos) peuvent court-circuiter
l'appareil. Couvrez toujours la prise lorsqu’elle n’est pas utilisée.

• Ne court-circuitez pas la pile. Les articles de 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 court-circuit des pôles peut endommager la batterie et causer une explosion.

Avis général

• N’utilisez pas de batterie endommagée et ne placez pas la batterie dans votre bouche, car cela pourrait

causer des blessures graves.

• Ne placez pas d'articles comportant des composantes magnétiques (carte de crédit, carte téléphonique, livret

de banque) près de votre téléphone. Le magnétisme du téléphone peut endommager les données dans la
bande magnétique.

• Pendant un appel très long, la qualité de la transmission risque d'être affectée en raison de la chaleur produite

par l'appareil.

• Lorsque vous n'utilisez pas le téléphone pendant une longue période, entreposez-le dans un endroit sûr et

débranchez le cordon d'alimentation.

• Si vous utilisez votre téléphone à proximité d'un récepteur (p. ex., une télévision ou une radio), il risque de se

produire des interférences avec le téléphone.

• N'utilisez pas le téléphone si l'antenne est endommagée. En cas de contact avec la peau, une antenne

endommagée pourrait causer des brûlures légères. Veuillez vous adresser à un centre de service LG autorisé
pour remplacer l’antenne endommagée.
