Emergency Services and Safety Precautions
Third party equipment
The use of third party equipment, cables or accessories, not
made or authorized by LG, may invalidate the warranty of your
handset and also adversely affect the handset’s safety or
operation
Service
The handset, batteries and charger contain no user-serviceable
parts. LG recommend that your LG U8110 handset is serviced
or repaired by an LG authorized service centre
Efficient use
The handset has an antenna. For optimum performance with

Emergancy Services and Safety Precautions
Radio frequency energy
Your handset is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver.
When it is turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency
(RF) energy (radio waves). The system that handles the call
(the network) controls the power level at which the handset
transmits.
• Further detailed information is given in this manual.
Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR) information
• This handset model U8110 has been designed to comply with
safety, requirements for exposure to radio waves. This
requirement is 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 a standardized method
with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level
in all used frequency bands
12
• 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-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), is 2W/kg
averaged over ten (10) gramme of tissue
• The highest SAR value for this model phone tested by DASY3
for use at the ear is 1.070 W/kg (10g)
• The SAR limit recommended by the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE), which is 1.6 W/kg averaged
over one (1) gramme of tissue (for example USA, Canada,
Australia and Taiwan).
