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-T300 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 users,
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-Ionising
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)
is 2W/kg averaged over 10g
of tissue.
• The highest SAR value for
this model phone tested by
DASY4 for use close to the
ear is 1.19 W/kg (10g) and
when worn on the body is
1.50 W/kg (10g).
3
• 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.

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.
• When your vehicle is
equipped with an air
bag, do not obstruct it
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 important 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 the handset on
or off close to your ear. We also
recommend that music and call
volumes are set to a reasonable
level.
Blasting area
Do not use the phone where
blasting is in progress. Observe
restrictions, and follow the rules
and regulations.

interference in aircraft.
• Turn your mobile phone off
before boarding any aircraft.
• Do not use it on the ground
without permission from the
crew.

Keep the phone in a safe
place out of the reach of small
children. It includes small parts

Emergency calls may not
be available with all mobile
networks. Therefore, you should
never depend solely on the
phone for emergency calls.
Check with your local service
provider.

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 a risk of explosion if
the battery is replaced by an
incorrect type.
