Before You Start
Safety Instructions
WARNING! To reduce the possibility
of electric shock, do not expose your
phone to high humidity areas, such
as the bathroom, swimming pool, etc.
Always store your phone away
from heat. Never store your phone
in settings that may expose it to

LG GW300FD | User Guide6
catastrophic failure.
Be careful when using your phone
near other electronic devices. RF

any personal medical devices such
as pacemakers and hearing aides to
determine if they are susceptible to
interference from your mobile phone.
Turn off your phone in a medical
facility or at a gas station. Never
place your phone in a microwave
oven as this will cause the battery to
explode.
Safety Information

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
bodyworn operations with the back
of the phone kept 1.5cm(0.6 inches)
between the user’s body and the
back of the phone. To comply with
FCC RF exposure requirements, a
minimum separation distance of 0.6
inches(1.5cm) must be maintained
between the user s body and the
back of the phone. Third-party
beltclips, holsters, and similar
accessories containing metallic
components should not be used.
9
For Your Safety
Body-worn accessories that
cannot maintain 1.5cm(0.6 inches)
separation distance between the
user’s body and the back of the
phone, and have not been tested for
typical body-worn operations may not
comply with FCC RF exposure limits
and should be avoided.
