Guidelines for safe and e cient use
Please read these simple guidelines. Not following these
guidelines may be dangerous or illegal.
Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR) information
This mobile phone model GS290 has been designed to
comply with applicable safety requirements for exposure
to radio waves. These requirements are based on scientific
guidelines that include safety margins designed to assure
the safety of all users, regardless of age and health.
• The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate,
or SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted using standardised
methods with the phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all used frequency bands.
• While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various LG phone models, they are all designed to meet
the relevant guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Battery information and care
• You do not need to completely discharge the battery
before recharging. Unlike other battery systems, there is
no memory effect that could compromise the battery’s
performance.
• Use only LG batteries and chargers. LG chargers are
designed to maximise the battery life.
• Do not disassemble or short-circuit the battery pack.
• Keep the metal contacts of the battery pack clean.
• Replace the battery when it no longer provides
acceptable performance. The battery pack may be
recharged hundreds of times until it needs replacing.
• Recharge the battery if it has not been used for a long
time to maximise usability.
• Do not expose the battery charger to direct sunlight or
use it in high humidity, such as in the bathroom.
• Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, this may
deteriorate the battery performance.
• There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an
incorrect type.
• The SAR limit recommended by the International
Commission on Non-Ionising Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) is 2W/kg averaged over 10g of tissue.
• The highest SAR value for this model phone tested by
DASY4 for use close to the ear is 0.993 W/kg (10g) and
when worn on the body is 0.543 W/kg (10g).
• SAR data information for residents in countries/regions
that have adopted the SAR limit recommended by the
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE),
which is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1g of tissue.
Product care and maintenance
WARNING
Only use batteries, chargers and accessories approved
for use with this particular phone model. The use of any
other types may invalidate any approval or warranty
applying to the phone, and may be dangerous.

technician when repair work is required.
• Keep away from electrical appliances such as TVs, radios,

possible. Do not dispose as household waste.
• If you need to replace the battery, take it to the nearest
authorised LG Electronics service point or dealer for
assistance.
• Always unplug the charger from the wall socket after
the phone is fully charged to save unnecessary power
consumption of the charger.

product settings, usage patterns, battery and
environmental conditions.
