Guidelines for safe and efﬁ cient Use

Please read these simple guidelines. Not following these guidelines may be dangerous or illegal. Further detailed information is given in this manual.

WARNING

• Mobile Phones must be switched off at all

times in an aircraft.

• Do not hold the phone in your hand

while driving.

• Do not use your phone near petrol stations,

fuel depots, chemical plants or blasting operations.

• For your safety, use ONLY speciﬁ ed

ORIGINAL batteries and chargers.

• Do not handle the phone with wet hands

while it is being charged. It may cause an electric shock or seriously damage your phone.

• Keep the phone in a safe place out of small

children’s reach. It includes small parts which if detached.

CAUTION

• Switch off the phone in any area where

required by special regulations. For

Guidelines

example, do not use your phone in hospitals or it may affect sensitive medical equipment.

LG KU990 | User Guide

• Emergency calls may not be available

under all mobile networks. Therefore, you should never depend solely on the phone for emergency calls.

• Only use ORIGINAL accessories to avoid

damage to your phone.

• All radio transmitters carry risks of

interference with electronics in close proximity. Minor interference may affect TVs, radios, PCs, etc.

• Batteries should be disposed of in

accordance with relevant legislation.

• Do not dismantle the phone or battery.

Certiﬁ cation information (SAR)

THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) recommended by international guidelines (ICNIRP). These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientiﬁ c organisations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientiﬁ c studies. The guidelines include a substantial

Guidelines for safe and efﬁ cient Use

safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Speciﬁ c Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the international guidelines is

2.0 W/kg*. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest certiﬁ ed power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certiﬁ ed power level, the actual SAR of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a base station, the lower the power output of the device. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with the European R&TTE directive must be shown. This directive includes as one essential requirement the protection of the health and the safety for the user and any other person. The highest SAR value for this device when tested for use at the ear is 0.826 W/kg.

This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use position against the ear or when positioned at least

1.5 cm away from the body. When a carry case, belt clip or holder is used for body-worn operation, it should not contain metal and should position the product at least 1.5 cm away from your body. In order to transmit data ﬁ les or messages, this device requires a quality connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of data ﬁ les or messages may be delayed until such a connection is available. Ensure the above separation distance instructions are followed until the transmission is completed. The highest SAR value for this device when tested for use at the body is 0.631 W/kg.

* The SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams of body tissue. The guidelines incorporate a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting requirements and the network band. For SAR information in other regions please look under product information at www. lgmobile.com.

Driver Safety Tips

Your wireless telephone gives you the powerful ability to communicate by voice

- almost anywhere, anytime. But an important responsibility accompanies the beneﬁ ts of wireless phones, one that every user must uphold. When driving a car, driving is your ﬁ rst responsibility. When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of a car, practice good common sense and remember the following tips:

• Use a hands free device. If possible, add

an additional layer of convenience and safety to your wireless phone with one of the many hands free accessories available today.

• Let the person you are speaking with know

you are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy trafﬁ c or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice and even heavy trafﬁ c can be hazardous.

• Do not take notes or look up phone

numbers while driving. Jotting down a “to do” list or ﬂ ipping through your address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility, driving safely.

• If possible, place calls when you are not

moving or before pulling into trafﬁ c. Try to plan calls when you will not be driving.

• Do not engage in stressful or emotional

conversations that may be distracting. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations that have the potential to divert your attention from the road.

• Use your wireless phone to call emergency

services for yourself or others. in the case of ﬁ re, trafﬁ c accident or medical emergencies;

- Australia: Dial 0-0-0,

- New Zealand: Dial 1-1-1,

- International: Dial 1-1-2,

- other local emergency number. Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phone for emergency services.

• Use your wireless phone to help others in

emergencies, if you see an auto accident crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call the emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.

• Use your wireless phone to help others in

emergencies, if you see an auto accident crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call the emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.

• Call roadside assistance or a special non-

emergency wireless assistance number when necessary. If you see a broken down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken trafﬁ c signal, a minor trafﬁ c accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or other special nonemergency wireless number.
