Guidelines for safe and efficient 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 LG-C199 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 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.
4
• The SAR limit recommended by
the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) is 2 W/Kg averaged over 10g of tissue.
• The highest SAR value for this
model phone tested by DASY4 for use at the ear is 0.898 W/ Kg (10g).
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.
• Do not disassemble this unit. Take
it to a qualified service technician when repair work is required.
• Repairs under warranty, at LG’s
option, may include replacement parts or boards that are either new or reconditioned, provided that they have functionality equal to that of the parts being replaced.
• Keep away from electrical
appliances such as TVs, radios, and personal computers.
• The unit should be kept away
from heat sources such as radiators or cookers.
• Do not drop.
• Do not subject this unit to
mechanical vibration or shock.
• Switch off the phone in any area
where you are required by special regulations. For example, do not use your phone in hospitals as it may affect sensitive medical equipment.
• Do not handle the phone with wet
hands while it is being charged. It may cause an electric shock and can seriously damage your phone.
• Do not to charge a handset
near flammable material as the handset can become hot and create a fire hazard.
• Use a dry cloth to clean the
exterior of the unit (do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner or alcohol).
• Do not charge the phone when it
is on soft furnishings.

sharp object as it may damage the phone.
• Do not expose the phone to liquid
or moisture.
• Use the accessories like
earphones cautiously. Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily.
• Your phone is an electronic device
that generates heat during normal operation. Extremely prolonged, direct skin contact in the absence of adequate ventilation may result in discomfort or minor burns. Therefore, use care when handling your phone during or immediately after operation.

Guidelines for safe and efficient use
Efficient phone operation
Electronics devices
All mobile phones may get interference, which could affect performance.
• Do not use your mobile phone
near medical equipment without requesting permission. Avoid placing the phone over pacemakers, for example, in your breast pocket.
• Some hearing aids might be
disturbed by mobile phones.
• Minor interference may affect
TVs, radios, PCs, etc.
Road safety
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile phones in the area when you drive.
• Do not use a hand-held phone
while driving.
• Give full attention to driving.
• Use a hands-free kit, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before
making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
• RF energy may affect some
electronic systems in your vehicle such as car stereos and safety equipment.
6
• When your vehicle is equipped
with an air bag, do not obstruct with installed or portable wireless equipment. It can cause the air bag to fail or cause serious injury due to improper performance.
• If you are listening to music
whilst out and about, please ensure that the volume is at a reasonable level so that you are aware of your surroundings. This is particularly imperative when near roads.
Avoid damage to your hearing
Damage to your hearing can occur if you are exposed to loud sound for long periods of time. We therefore recommend that you do not turn on or off the handset close to your ear. We also recommend that music and call volumes are set to a reasonable level.
Note: Excessive sound pressure from earphones can cause hearing loss.
Blasting area

Potentially explosive atmospheres
• Do not use the phone at a
refueling point.
• Do not use near fuel or
chemicals.

flammable gas, liquid, or explosives in the same compartment of your vehicle with your mobile phone and accessories.
In aircraft
Wireless devices can cause interference in aircraft.
• Turn your mobile phone off before
boarding any aircraft.
• Do not use it on the aircraft
without permission from the crew.
Children
Keep the phone in a safe place out of the reach of small children. It includes small parts which may cause a choking hazard if detached.
Emergency calls
Emergency calls may not be available under all mobile networks. Therefore, you should never depend solely on the phone for emergency calls. Check with your local service provider.
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.
7

• 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 risk
of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
• Dispose off used batteries
according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Please recycle when 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.
8
• Always unplug the charger from
the wall socket after the phone is fully charged to save unnecessary power consumption of the charger.
• Actual battery life will depend on
network configuration, product settings, usage patterns, battery and environmental conditions.
• Make sure that no sharp-edged
items such as animal’s teeth or nails, come into contact with the battery. This could cause a fire.
