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-C375
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 1.25 W/Kg (10g)
and when worn on the body is
1.28 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.

create a fire hazard.
Use a dry cloth to clean the
•
exterior of the unit (do not use
solvents such as benzene, thinner

•
is on soft furnishings.
The phone should be charged in
•
a well ventilated area.

•
excessive smoke or dust.

•
or moisture.
Use the accessories like
•
earphones cautiously. Do not

•
period of time with any part of

Guidelines for safe and efficient use
When your vehicle is equipped
Efficient phone operation
Electronics devices
All mobile phones may get
interference, which could affect
performance.

reasonable level so that you are
aware of your surroundings. This
is particularly imperative when

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

•
no longer provides acceptable
performance. The battery pack
maybe recharged hundreds of
times until it needs replacing.
Guidelines for safe and efficient use
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.

8
of explosion if the
battery is replaced by an incorrect

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.
