typical body-worn operations may
not comply with FCC RF exposure
limits and should be avoided.
Vehicle Mounted External
Antenna (optional, if available)
A minimum separation distance of 8
inches (20cm) must be maintained
between the user/bystander and
the vehicle mounted external
antenna to satisfy FCC RF exposure
requirements. For more information

standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
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).

Safety Guidelines
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.

Tips on Efficient Operation
For your phone to operate most
efficiently:
•Do not 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. Always obey
them. Also, if using your phone
while driving, please:
•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 so require.
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 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.
•If you have any reason to suspect
that interference is taking place,
turn your phone OFF immediately.
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.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal
medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to
determine if they are adequately
shielded from external RF energy.
Your physician may be able to assist
you in obtaining this information.

Safety Guidelines
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.
LG GW370B| User Guide96
