This user’s guide contains important information on the use and operation of this phone. Please read all the information carefully for optimal performance and to prevent any damage to or misuse of the phone. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this user’s guide could void your warranty for this

equipment.

Use of phone cases with magnetic locks with slide type phones has caused problems such as loss of network signal and phones powering off.

For Your Safety

Please read these simple guidelines. Not

For Your Safety

following these guidelines may be dangerous or illegal. Further detailed information is given in this manual.

WARNING!

• Mobile Phones must be switched off at all times in aircrafts.

• Do not hold the phone in your hand while driving.

• Do not use your phone near petrol stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or blasting operations.

• For your safety, use ONLY specified ORIGINAL batteries and chargers.

• Do not handle the phone with wet hands while it is being charged. It may cause an electric shock or seriously damage your phone.

• Keep the phone in a safe place out of small children’s reach. It includes small parts which, if detached, may cause a choking hazard.

CAUTION!

• Switch off the phone in any area where required by special regulations. For example, do not use your phone in hospitals or it may affect sensitive medical equipment.

• Emergency calls may not be available under all mobile networks. Therefore, you should never depend solely on your mobile phone for emergency calls.

• Only use ORIGINAL accessories to avoid damage to your phone.

• All radio transmitters carry risks of interference with electronics in close proximity. Minor interference may affect TVs, radios, PCs, etc.

• Batteries should be disposed of in accordance with relevant legislation.

• Do not dismantle the phone or battery.

Guidelines for safe and efficient use

Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information

This mobile phone model KG800 has been designed to comply with applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. This requirement is based on scientific guidelines that include safety margins designed to assure the safety of all persons, 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.

]

The SAR limit recommended by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) is 2W/kg averaged over ten (10) gram of tissue.

]

The highest SAR value for this model phone tested by DASY4 for use at the ear is 0.084 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) is 1.6 W/kg averaged over one (1) gram 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.

Guidelines for safe and efficient use

]

The label on the phone contains important information for customer support purposes. Do not remove it.

]

Use accessories, such as earphones and headsets, with caution. Ensure that cables are tucked away safely and do not touch the antenna unnecessarily.

Efficient phone operation

To enjoy optimum performance with minimum power consumption please:

]

Hold the phone as you speak to any other telephone. While speaking directly into the microphone, angle the antenna in a direction up and over your shoulder. If the antenna is extendable/retractable, it should be extended during a call.

]

Do not hold the antenna when the phone is in use. If you hold it, it can affect call quality, it also may cause the phone to operate as a higher power level that needed and shorten talk and standby times.

]

If your mobile phone supports infrared, never direct the infrared ray at anyone’s eyes.
