CDMA technology uses a feature called
DSSS (Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum)
that enables the phone to keep
communication from being crossed and to
use one frequency channel by multiple
users in the same specific area. This results
in a 10-fold capacity increase when
compared with analog mode. In addition,
features such as soft / softer handoff, hard
handoff, and dynamic RF power control
technologies combine to reduce call
interruptions.
The Cellular and PCS CDMA networks
consist of MSO (Mobile Switching Office),
BSC (Base Station Controller), BTS (Base
Station Transmission System), and MS
(Mobile Station). The following table lists
some major CDMA standards.
* TSB-74: Protocol between an IS-95A
system and ANSI J-STD-008
1xRTT system receives twice as many
subscribers in the wireless section as IS-
95. Its battery life is twice as long as IS-
95. High-speed data transmission is also
possible.

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.
Bodily Contact During Operation
This device was tested for typical use with the
back of the phone kept 0.6 inches (1.5 cm)
from the body. To comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements, a minimum separation
distance of 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) must be
maintained between the user’s body and the
back of the phone, including the antenna,
whether extended or retracted. Third-party
belt-clips, holsters and similar accessories
containing metallic components should not be
used. Avoid the use of accessories that
cannot maintain 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) distance
between the user’s body and the back of the
phone and have not been tested for
compliance with FCC RF exposure limits.
Vehicle-Mounted External Antenna
(Optional, if available.)
A minimum separation distance of 8 inches
(20 cm) must be maintained between the user
/ bystander and the vehicle-mounted external
antenna to satisfy FCC RF exposure
requirements. For more information about RF
exposure, visit the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov.
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 and IC
regulations.
Do not use the phone with a damaged
antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into
contact with the skin a minor burn may
result. Contact your local dealer for a
replacement antenna.

TIA Safety Information
The following is the complete TIA Safety
Information for wireless handheld phones.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable phone is a
low power radio transmitter and receiver.
When ON, it receives and sends out Radio
Frequency (RF) signals.
In August, 1996, the Federal
Communications Commissions (FCC)
adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety
levels for handheld wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety
standards previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
* American National Standards Institute;
National Council on Radiation Protection
and Measurements; International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection.
Those standards were based on
comprehensive and periodic evaluations of
the relevant scientific literature. For
example, over 120 scientists, engineers,
and physicians from universities,
government health agencies, and industry
reviewed the available body of research to
develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).
The design of your phone complies with
the FCC guidelines (and those standards).
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved
replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments
could damage the phone and may violate
FCC regulations.
Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as
you would any other telephone with the
antenna pointed up and over your
shoulder.
Safety
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 62
Tips on Efficient Operation
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
Don’t touch the antenna unnecessarily
when the phone is in use. Contact with the
antenna affects call quality and may cause
the phone to operate at a higher power
level than otherwise needed.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use
of wireless phones in the areas where you
drive and always obey them. Also, if using
your phone while driving, please observe
the following:
Give full attention to driving -- driving
safely is your first responsibility;
Use hands-free operation, if available;
Pull off the road and park before making
or answering a call if driving conditions
or the law require it.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is
shielded from RF signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your wireless
phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers
Association recommends that a minimum
separation of six (6) inches be maintained
between a handheld wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference
with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology
Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more
than six (6) inches from their pacemaker
when the phone is turned ON;
Should not carry the phone in a breast
pocket;
Should use the ear opposite the
pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference;
63
Safety
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 63
Safety
64
Safety
Should turn the phone OFF immediately
if there is any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere
with some hearing aids. In the event of
such interference, you may want to consult
your service provider (or call the customer
service line to discuss alternatives).
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical
device, consult the manufacturer of your
device to determine if it is adequately
shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in
obtaining this information.
Health Care Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in health care
facilities when any regulations posted in
these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may use
equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed
or inadequately shielded electronic systems
in motor vehicles. Check with the
manufacturer or its representative
regarding your vehicle. You should also
consult the manufacturer of any equipment
that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where
posted notices so require.
Aircraft
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone
while in the air. Switch OFF your phone
before boarding an aircraft.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting
operations, turn your phone OFF when in a
“blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off
two-way radio”. Obey all signs and
instructions.
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 64
Potentially Explosive Atmosphere
Turn your phone OFF when in any area
with a potentially explosive atmosphere
and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks
in such areas could cause an explosion or
fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive
atmosphere are often, but not always
marked clearly. Potential areas may include:
fueling areas (such as gasoline stations);
below deck on boats; fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane
or butane); areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust,
or metal powders); and any other area
where you would normally be advised to
turn off your vehicle engine.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO
NOT place objects, including either
installed or portable wireless equipment, in
the area over the air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless
equipment is improperly installed and the
air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
Safety Information
Please read and observe the following
information for safe and proper use of your
phone and to prevent damage. Also, keep
the user guide in an accessible place at all
times after reading it.
Caution! V
iolation of the instructions
may cause minor or serious damage to the
product.
Charger and Adapter Safety
The charger and adapter are intended
for indoor use only.
Insert the battery pack charger vertically
into the wall power socket.
Use the correct adapter for your phone
when using the battery pack charger
abroad.
Only use the approved battery charger.
Otherwise, you may cause serious
damage to your phone.
Battery Information and Care
Please dispose of your battery properly
or take it to your local wireless carrier
for recycling.
65
Safety
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 65
The battery doesn't need to be empty
before recharging.
Use only LG-approved chargers specific
to your phone model since they are
designed to maximize battery life.
Do not disassemble or short-circuit the
battery.
Keep the battery’s metal contacts clean.
Replace the battery when it no longer
provides acceptable performance. The
battery can be recharged several hundred
times before replacement.
Recharge the battery after long periods
of non-use to maximize battery life.
Battery life will vary due to usage
patterns and environmental conditions.
Use of extended backlighting, Browser,
and data connectivity kits affect battery
life and talk/standby times.
The self-protection function of the
battery cuts the power of the phone
when its operation is in an abnormal
state. In this case, remove the battery
from the phone, reinstall it, and turn the
phone on.
Explosion, Shock, and Fire Hazards
Do not put your phone in a place
subject to excessive dust and keep the
minimum required distance between the
power cord and heat sources.
Unplug the power cord prior to cleaning
your phone, and clean the power plug
pin when it’s dirty.
When using the power plug, ensure that
it’s firmly connected. If not, it may cause
excessive heat or fire.
If you put your phone in a pocket or
bag without covering the receptacle of
the phone (power plug pin), metallic

FDA Consumer Update
The U.S. Food and Drug
Administration’s Center for
Devices and Radiological
Health Consumer Update on Mobile Phones:
1. Do wireless phones pose a health
hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not
show that any health problems are
associated with using wireless phones.
There is no proof, however, that wireless
phones are absolutely safe. Wireless
phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency
(RF) energy in the microwave range while
being used. They also emit very low levels
of RF when in standby mode. Whereas
high levels of RF can produce health
effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low
level RF that does not produce heating
effects causes no known adverse health
effects. Many studies of low level RF
exposures have not found any biological
effects. Some studies have suggested that
some biological effects may occur, but
such findings have not been confirmed by
additional research. In some cases, other
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 68
69
Safety
researchers have had difficulty in
reproducing those studies, or in
determining the reasons for inconsistent
results.
2. What is the FDA's role concerning the
safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, the FDA does not review
the safety of radiation-emitting consumer
products such as wireless phones before
they can be sold, as it does with new drugs
or medical devices. However, the agency
has authority to take action if wireless
phones are shown to emit Radio Frequency
(RF) energy at a level that is hazardous to
the user. In such a case, the FDA could
require the manufacturers of wireless
phones to notify users of the health
hazard and to repair, replace, or recall the
phones so that the hazard no longer
exists.
Although the existing scientific data do
not justify FDA regulatory actions, the FDA
has urged the wireless phone industry to
take a number of steps, including the
following:
Support needed research into possible
biological effects of RF of the type
emitted by wireless phones;
Design wireless phones in a way that
minimizes any RF exposure to the user
that is not necessary for device
function; and
Cooperate in providing users of wireless
phones with the best possible
information on possible effects of
wireless phone use on human health.
The FDA belongs to an interagency
working group of the federal agencies that
have responsibility for different aspects of
RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at
the federal level. The following agencies
belong to this working group:
National Institute for Occupational
Safety and Health
Environmental Protection Agency
Occupational Safety and Health
Administration
National Telecommunications and
Information Administration
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 69
Safety
70
Safety
The National Institutes of Health
participates in some interagency working
group activities, as well.
The FDA shares regulatory responsibilities
for wireless phones with the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). All
phones that are sold in the United States
must comply with FCC safety guidelines
that limit RF exposure. The FCC relies on
the FDA and other health agencies for
safety questions about wireless phones.
The FCC also regulates the base stations
that the wireless phone networks rely
upon. While these base stations operate at
higher power than do the wireless phones
themselves, the RF exposures that people
get from these base stations are typically
thousands of times lower than those they
can get from wireless phones. Base
stations are thus not the subject of the
safety questions discussed in this
document.
3. What kinds of phones are the subject
of this update?
The term “wireless phone” refers here to
handheld wireless phones with built-in
antennas, often called “cell”, “mobile”, or
“PCS” phones. These types of wireless
phones can expose the user to measurable
Radio Frequency (RF) energy because of
the short distance between the phone and
the user’s head.
These RF exposures are limited by FCC
safety guidelines that were developed with
the advice of the FDA and other federal
health and safety agencies. When the
phone is located at greater distances from
the user, the exposure to RF is drastically
lower because a person's RF exposure
decreases rapidly with increasing distance
from the source. The so-called “cordless
phones,” which have a base unit connected
to the telephone wiring in a house,
typically operate at far lower power levels,
and thus produce RF exposures far below
the FCC safety limits.
4. What are the results of the research
done already?
The research done thus far has produced
conflicting results, and many studies have
suffered from flaws in their research
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 70
71
Safety
methods. Animal experiments investigating
the effects of Radio Frequency (RF) energy
exposures characteristic of wireless phones
have yielded conflicting results that often
cannot be repeated in other laboratories. A
few animal studies, however, have
suggested that low levels of RF could
accelerate the development of cancer in
laboratory animals. However, many of the
studies that showed increased tumor
development used animals that had been
genetically engineered or treated with
cancer-causing chemicals so as to be predisposed to develop cancer in the absence
of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the
animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day.
These conditions are not similar to the
conditions under which people use
wireless phones, so we do not know with
certainty what the results of such studies
mean for human health. Three large
epidemiology studies have been published
since December 2000. Between them, the
studies investigated any possible
association between the use of wireless
phones and primary brain cancer, glioma,
meningioma, or acoustic neuroma, tumors
of the brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or
other cancers. None of the studies
demonstrated the existence of any harmful
health effects from wireless phone RF
exposures. However, none of the studies
can answer questions about long-term
exposures, since the average period of
phone use in these studies was around
three years.
5. What research is needed to decide
whether RF exposure from wireless
phones poses a health risk?
A combination of laboratory studies and
epidemiological studies of people actually
using wireless phones would provide some
of the data that are needed. Lifetime
animal exposure studies could be
completed in a few years. However, very
large numbers of animals would be needed
to provide reliable proof of a cancer
promoting effect if one exists.
Epidemiological studies can provide data
that is directly applicable to human
populations, but ten or more years followup may be needed to provide answers
about some health effects, such as cancer.
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 71
Safety
72
Safety
This is because the interval between the
time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent
and the time tumors develop — if they do
— may be many, many years. The
interpretation of epidemiological studies is
hampered by difficulties in measuring
actual RF exposure during day-to-day use
of wireless phones. Many factors affect this
measurement, such as the angle at which
the phone is held, or which model of
phone is used.
6. What is the FDA doing to find out
more about the possible health effects
of wireless phone RF?
The FDA is working with the U.S. National
Toxicology Program and with groups of
investigators around the world to ensure
that high priority animal studies are
conducted to address important questions
about the effects of exposure to Radio
Frequency (RF) energy.
The FDA has been a leading participant in
the World Health Organization
International Electro Magnetic Fields
(EMF) Project since its inception in 1996.
An influential result of this work has been
the development of a detailed agenda of
research needs that has driven the
establishment of new research programs
around the world. The project has also
helped develop a series of public
information documents on EMF issues.
The FDA and the Cellular
Telecommunications & Internet
Association (CTIA) have a formal
Cooperative Research And Development
Agreement (CRADA) to do research on
wireless phone safety. The FDA provides
the scientific oversight, obtaining input
from experts in government, industry, and
academic organizations. CTIA-funded
research is conducted through contracts
with independent investigators. The initial
research will include both laboratory
studies and studies of wireless phone
users. The CRADA will also include a broad
assessment of additional research needs in
the context of the latest research
developments around the world.

Safety
7. How can I find out how much Radio
Frequency energy exposure I can get by
using my wireless phone?
All phones sold in the United States must
comply with Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) guidelines that limit
Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposures.
The FCC established these guidelines in
consultation with the FDA and the other
federal health and safety agencies. The FCC
limit for RF exposure from wireless phones
is set at a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The
FCC limit is consistent with the safety
standards developed by the Institute of
Electrical and Electronic Engineering (IEEE)
and the National Council on Radiation
Protection and Measurement. The exposure
limit takes into consideration the body’s
ability to remove heat from the tissues that
absorb energy from the wireless phone and
is set well below levels known to have
effects. Manufacturers of wireless phones
must report the RF exposure level for each
model of phone to the FCC. The FCC
website (
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety)
gives directions for locating the FCC
identification number on your phone so
you can find your phone’s RF exposure level
in the online listing.
8. What has the FDA done to measure
the Radio Frequency energy coming from
wireless phones?
The Institute of Electrical and Electronic
Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical
standard for measuring the Radio
Frequency (RF) energy exposure from
wireless phones and other wireless
handsets with the participation and
leadership of FDA scientists and engineers.
The standard, “Recommended Practice for
Determining the Spatial-Peak Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR) in the Human Body
Due to Wireless Communications Devices:
Experimental Techniques”, sets forth the
first consistent test methodology for
measuring the rate at which RF is
deposited in the heads of wireless phone
users. The test method uses a tissuesimulating model of the human head.
Standardized SAR test methodology is
expected to greatly improve the
consistency of measurements made at
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 73
Safety
74
Safety
different laboratories on the same phone.
SAR is the measurement of the amount of
energy absorbed in tissue, either by the
whole body or a small part of the body. It
is measured in watts/kg (or milliwatts/g) of
matter. This measurement is used to
determine whether a wireless phone
complies with safety guidelines.
9. What steps can I take to reduce my
exposure to Radio Frequency energy
from my wireless phone?
If there is a risk from these products —
and at this point we do not know that
there is — it is probably very small. But if
you are concerned about avoiding even
potential risks, you can take a few simple
steps to minimize your exposure to Radio
Frequency (RF) energy. Since time is a key
factor in how much exposure a person
receives, reducing the amount of time
spent using a wireless phone will reduce RF
exposure. If you must conduct extended
conversations by wireless phone every day,
you could place more distance between
your body and the source of the RF, since
the exposure level drops off dramatically
with distance. For example, you could use a
headset and carry the wireless phone away
from your body or use a wireless phone
connected to a remote antenna. Again, the
scientific data do not demonstrate that
wireless phones are harmful. But if you are
concerned about the RF exposure from
these products, you can use measures like
those described above to reduce your RF
exposure from wireless phone use.
10. What about children using wireless
phones?
The scientific evidence does not show a
danger to users of wireless phones,
including children and teenagers. If you
want to take steps to lower exposure to
Radio Frequency (RF) energy, the
measures described above would apply to
children and teenagers using wireless
phones. Reducing the time of wireless
phone use and increasing the distance
between the user and the RF source will
reduce RF exposure.
Some groups sponsored by other national
governments have advised that children be
discouraged from using wireless phones at
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 74
75
Safety
all. For example, the government in the
United Kingdom distributed leaflets
containing such a recommendation in
December 2000. They noted that no
evidence exists that using a wireless phone
causes brain tumors or other ill effects.
Their recommendation to limit wireless
phone use by children was strictly
precautionary; it was not based on
scientific evidence that any health hazard
exists.
11. What about wireless phone
interference with medical equipment?
Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless
phones can interact with some electronic
devices. For this reason, the FDA helped
develop a detailed test method to measure
Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) of
implanted cardiac pacemakers and
defibrillators from wireless telephones. This
test method is now part of a standard
sponsored by the Association for the
Advancement of Medical Instrumentation
(AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by
the FDA, medical device manufacturers,
and many other groups, was completed in
late 2000. This standard will allow
manufacturers to ensure that cardiac
pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from
wireless phone EMI.
The FDA has tested hearing aids for
interference from handheld wireless
phones and helped develop a voluntary
standard sponsored by the Institute of
Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE).
This standard specifies test methods and
performance requirements for hearing aids
and wireless phones so that no
interference occurs when a person uses a
“compatible” phone and a “compatible”
hearing aid at the same time. This
standard was approved by the IEEE in
2000.
The FDA continues to monitor the use of
wireless phones for possible interactions
with other medical devices. Should harmful
interference be found to occur, the FDA
will conduct testing to assess the
interference and work to resolve the
problem.

10 Driver Safety Tips
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful
ability to communicate by voice almost
anywhere, anytime. An important
responsibility accompanies the benefits of
wireless phones, one that every user must
uphold.
When operating a car, driving is your first
responsibility. When using your wireless
phone behind the wheel of a car, practice
good common sense and remember the
following tips:
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its
features such as speed dial and redial.
Carefully read your instruction manual
and learn to take advantage of valuable
features most phones offer, including
automatic redial and memory. Also, work
to memorize the phone keypad so you
can use the speed dial function without
taking your attention off the road.
2. When available, use a hands-free device.
A number of hands-free wireless phone
accessories are readily available today.
Whether you choose an installed
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 76
77
Safety
mounted device for your wireless phone
or a speakerphone accessory, take
advantage of these devices if available
to you.
3. Make sure you place your wireless
phone within easy reach and where you
can reach it without removing your eyes
from the road. If you get an incoming
call at an inconvenient time, if possible,
let your voicemail answer it for you.
4. Suspend conversations during
hazardous driving conditions or
situations. Let the person you are
speaking with know you are driving; if
necessary, suspend the call in heavy
traffic or hazardous weather conditions.
Rain, sleet, snow, and ice can be
hazardous, but so is heavy traffic. As a
driver, your first responsibility is to pay
attention to the road.
5. Don’t take notes or look up phone
numbers while driving. If you are reading
an address book or business card, or
writing a “to-do” list while driving a car,
you are not watching where you are
going. It is common sense. Do not get
caught in a dangerous situation because
you are reading or writing and not
paying attention to the road or nearby
vehicles.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if
possible, place calls when you are not
moving or before pulling into traffic. Try
to plan your calls before you begin your
trip or attempt to coincide your calls
with times you may be stopped at a
stop sign, red light, or otherwise
stationary. But if you need to dial while
driving, follow this simple tip -- dial only
a few numbers, check the road and your
mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional
conversations that may be distracting.
Stressful or emotional conversations
and driving do not mix; they are
distracting and even dangerous when
you are behind the wheel of a car. Make
people you are talking with aware you
are driving and if necessary, suspend
conversations which have the potential
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 77
Safety
78
Safety
to divert your attention from the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help.
Your wireless phone is one of the
greatest tools you can own to protect
yourself and your family in dangerous
situations -- with your phone at your
side, help is only three numbers away.
Dial 911 or other local emergency
number in the case of fire, traffic
accident, road hazard, or medical
emergency. Remember, it’s a free call on
your wireless phone!
9. Use your wireless phone to help others
in emergencies. Your wireless phone
provides you a perfect opportunity to
be a “Good Samaritan” in your
community. If you see an auto accident,
crime in progress or other serious
emergency where lives are in danger, call
911 or other local emergency number,
as you would want others to do for you.
10. Call roadside assistance or a special
wireless non-emergency assistance
number when necessary. Certain
situations you encounter while driving
may require attention, but are not
urgent enough to merit a call for
emergency services. But you can still
use your wireless phone to lend a
hand. If you see a broken-down vehicle
posing no serious hazard, a broken
traffic signal, a minor traffic accident
where no one appears injured or a
vehicle you know to be stolen, call
roadside assistance or other special
non-emergency wireless number.

Consumer Information on
SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate)
This model phone meets the government's
requirements for exposure to radio waves.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter
and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission of the U.S. Government.
These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of
RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on standards that
were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific studies.
The standards include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile
phones employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or
SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6
W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions specified by
the FCC with the phone transmitting at its
highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands. Although SAR is
determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of the phone
while operating can be well below the
maximum value. Because the phone is
designed to operate at multiple power
levels to use only the power required to
reach the network, in general, the closer
you are to a wireless base station antenna,
the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale
to the public, it must be tested and
certified to the FCC that it does not
exceed the limit established by the
government-adopted requirement for safe
exposure. The tests are performed in
positions and locations (e.g., at the ear
and worn on the body) as required by the
FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value for this model
phone when tested for use at the ear is
1.23 W/kg and when worn on the body,
79
Safety
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 79
as described in this user guide, is 0.275
W/kg (body-worn measurements differ
among phone models, depending upon
available accessories). While there may be
differences between SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all
meet the government requirement for safe
exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment
Authorization for this model phone with all
reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF emission
guidelines. SAR information on this model
phone is on file with the FCC and can be
found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after
searching on FCC ID BEJLX165. Additional
information on Specific Absorption Rates
(SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association
(CTIA) website at http://www.ctia.org.
*
In the United States and Canada, the SAR
limit for mobile phones used by the public
is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one
gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in
measurements.
FCC Hearing-Aid
Compatibility (HAC)
Regulations for Wireless
Devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) Report
and Order in WT Docket 01-309 modified
the exception of wireless phones under the
Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC
Act) to require digital wireless phones be
compatible with hearing-aids. The intent of
the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable
access to telecommunications services for
persons with hearing disabilities.
While some wireless phones are used near
some hearing devices (hearing aids and
cochlear implants), users may detect a
buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some
hearing devices are more immune than
others to this interference noise, and
phones also vary in the amount of
Safety
80
Safety
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 80
interference they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has
developed a rating system for wireless
phones, to assist hearing device users find
phones that may be compatible with their
hearing devices. Not all phones have been
rated. Phones that are rated have the
rating on their box or a label located on the
box.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will
vary depending on the user’s hearing
device and hearing loss. If your hearing
device happens to be vulnerable to
interference, you may not be able to use a
rated phone successfully. Trying out the
phone with your hearing device is the best
way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet
FCC requirements and are likely to
generate less interference to hearing
devices than phones that are not labeled.
M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
Your Flare has a M4 rating.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC
requirements and are likely to generate
less interference to hearing devices than
phones that are not labeled. T4 is the
better/higher of the two ratings.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your
hearing device manufacturer or hearing
health professional may help you find this
rating. Higher ratings mean that the
hearing device is relatively immune to
interference noise. The hearing aid and
wireless phone rating values are then
added together. A sum of 5 is considered
acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is
considered for best use.
In the above example, if a hearing aid
meets the M2 level rating and the wireless
phone meets the M3 level rating, the sum
of the two values equal M5. This is
synonymous for T ratings. This should
provide the hearing aid user with “normal
usage” while using their hearing aid with
the particular wireless phone. “Normal
81
Safety
LX165_Virgin_Eng.qxd 1/22/08 5:26 PM Page 81
usage” in this context is defined as a
signal quality that is acceptable for normal
operation.
The M mark is intended to be synonymous
with the U mark. The T mark is intended to
be synonymous with the UT mark. The M
and T marks are recommended by the
Alliance for Telecommunications
Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT
marks are referenced in Section 20.19 of
the FCC Rules. The HAC rating and
measurement procedure are described in
the American National Standards Institute
