Important notice
Please check this section to see if
any problems you have had with your
phone are described, before taking
the phone in for servicing or calling a
service representative.
1. Phone memory
When the available space in your
phone memory is less than 10%,
your phone can't receive new
messages. You will need to delete
some data from your phone memory,
such as applications or messages, to
provide more memory space.
To manage the application:
1 On the home screen, touch the
Applications tab and select
Settings > Applications >
Manage applications.
2 When all applications appear,
scroll down to the application you
want to uninstall and select it.
3 Tap Uninstall and touch OK to
uninstall the selected application.
WARNING
If you delete your data stored
on the internal SD card of your
phone, you cannot restore it using
the Factory data reset option
(Settings > Privacy > Factory data
reset).
2. Optimising battery life
You can extend your battery's life by
turning off features that you don't
need that run in the background. You
can also monitor how applications
and system resources use battery
power.
To extend the life of your battery:
• Turn off radio communications
that aren't in use. Turn off Wi-Fi,
Bluetooth or GPS when not in use.
• Turn down screen brightness and
set a shorter screen timeout.
• Turn off automatic syncing for
Gmail, Calendar, Contacts and
other applications.
Some applications you have
downloaded may reduce your
battery’s life.
To check the battery charge level:
1 On the home screen, touch the
Applications tab and select
Settings > About phone >
Status.
2 The battery status (charging,
discharging) and level (as a
percentage of a full charge) are
displayed at the top of the screen.
To monitor and control battery
use:
1 On the home screen, touch the
Applications tab and select
Settings > About phone >
Battery use.
2 The top of the screen displays
the battery usage time. This
is either how long since your
phone was last connected to a
power source or, if connected to
a power source, how long since
your phone last ran on battery
•
power. The body of the screen
lists the applications or services
using battery power, from highest
consumption to least.
3. Installing an open
source OS
If you install an open source OS on
your phone and do not use the OS
provided by the manufacturer, your
phone may malfunction.
WARNING
If you install and use an OS
other than the one provided by
the manufacturer, your phone
will not be covered by the
warranty.
Important notice
WARNING
To protect your phone and
personal data, only download
applications from trusted
sources such as Android
Market. If some applications
are incorrectly installed on your
phone, your phone may not
work properly, or serious errors
may occur. You will need to
remove these applications and
all their data and settings from
the phone.
4. Using unlock pattern
Set unlock pattern to secure your
phone. This opens a set of screens
that guide you through drawing a
screen unlock pattern.
You can draw your own unlock
pattern by connecting four or more
dots.
If you set a pattern, the phone
screen will lock. To unlock the phone,
enter the pattern you have set on the
screen.
Caution: Create a Gmail account
first, before setting an unlock pattern.
WARNING
Precautions to take when
using Pattern Lock
It is essential that you remember
the unlock pattern you set.
You have five chances to enter
your unlock pattern, PIN or
password. Once you have used
all five chances, you can try
again 30 seconds later.
If you can’t remember your unlock
pattern, PIN or password:
If you have tried to log on to your
Google account on the phone and
failed to enter the correct pattern five
times, tap the Forgot pattern button.
You will then be required to sign in
with your Google account to unlock
your phone.
If you haven’t created a Google
account on the phone or cannot
remember it, you will have to carry
out a factory reset.
5. Connecting to Wi-Fi
networks
To use Wi-Fi on your phone you need
to access a wireless access point or
“hotspot.” Some access points are
open, and you can simply connect
to them. Others are hidden or have
other security features, so you must
configure your phone to connect to
them.
Turn off Wi-Fi when you're not using
it to extend the life of your battery.
To turn Wi-Fi on and connect to a
Wi-Fi network:
1 On the home screen, touch the
Applications tab and select
Settings > Wireless & networks
> Wi-Fi settings.
2 Touch Wi-Fi to turn it on and
start scanning for available Wi-Fi
networks.
• A list of available Wi-Fi networks is
displayed. Secured networks are
indicated by a lock icon.
3 Touch a network to connect to it.
• If the network is open, you are
prompted to confirm you want
to connect to that network by
touching Connect.
• If the network is secured, you are
prompted to enter a password
or other credentials. (Ask your
network administrator for details.)
4 The status bar displays icons
indicating Wi-Fi status.
Important notice
6. Opening and switching
applications
Multi-tasking is easy with Android
because open applications keep
running even when you open a
further application. You do not
need to quit an application before
opening another one. Use and switch
between several opened applications.
Android manages each application,
stopping and starting it as needed,
to ensure idle applications don’t
consume resources unnecessarily.
To stop using an application:
1 On the home screen, touch the
Applications tab and select
Settings> Applications>
Manage applications.
2 Scroll to the chosen application
and touch Force Stop to close it.
10
TIP!

Application
Touch and hold the Home key.
A screen will appear listing the
applications you have used recently.

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.
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 regulations.
Do not use the phone with a
damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with
skin, a minor burn may result.
Contact your local dealer for a
replacement antenna.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical
body-worn operations with the back
of the phone kept 2cm (0.79 inches)
between the user’s body and the
back of the phone. To comply with
FCC RF exposure requirements,
a minimum separation distance
of 2cm (0.79 inches) must be
maintained between the user's body
and the back of the phone. Thirdparty belt-clips, holsters, and similar
99
For Your Safety
accessories containing metallic
components should not be used.
Body-worn accessories that
cannot maintain 2cm (0.79 inches)
separation distance between the
user's body and the back of the
phone, and have not been tested for
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
20cm (8 inches) 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

Exposure to Radio
Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable
telephone is a lowpower radio
transmitter and receiver. When it is
ON, it receives and also 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.
102
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)
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
Driving
Use only the supplied or an approved
replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the
phone and may violate FCC
regulations.
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.
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.
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.
103
Safety Guidelines
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers
Association recommends that a
minimum separation of 15.24 cm
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 15.24 cm 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.
104
• 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.
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.
Blasting Areas
Vehicles
To avoid interfering with blasting
operations, turn your phone OFF
when in a ‘blasting areas or in areas
posted: ‘Turn off two-way radio’.
Obey all signs and instructions.
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. Turn your
phone OFF before boarding an
aircraft.
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
105
Safety Guidelines
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.
Charger and Adapter Safety
For Vehicles Equipped
with an Air Bag
• Please dispose of your battery
properly or take it to your local
wireless carrier for recycling.
• The battery does not need to be
fully discharged before recharging.
• Use only LG-approved chargers
specific to your phone model since
they are designed to maximize
battery life.
• Do not disassemble or impact the
battery as it may cause electric
shock, short-circuit, and fire. Store
the battery in a place out of reach
of children.
• Keep the battery’s metal contacts

FDA Consumer Update
The U.S. Food and Drug
Administration Centre 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 energy (RF) in
the microwave range while being
used. They also emit very low
levels of RF when in the 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
109
Safety Guidelines
cases, other 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
energy (RF) 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
110
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 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 (Administración
de la seguridad y salud
laborales)
• Occupational Safety and Health
Administration
• National Telecommunications
and Information Administration
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 radiofrequency
111
Safety Guidelines
energy (RF) 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
112
flaws in their research methods.
Animal experiments investigating
the effects of radiofrequency
energy (RF) 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 don’t 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 longterm
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 10 or more years followup may be needed to provide
answers about some health
effects, such as cancer.
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
113
Safety Guidelines
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 radiofrequency
energy (RF). The FDA has been a
leading participant in the World
Health Organization International
Electromagnetic 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
114
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.
7. How can I find out how
much radiofrequency 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
radiofrequency energy (RF)
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 telephones 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 radiofrequency
energy coming from wireless
phones?
The Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is
developing a technical standard
for measuring the radiofrequency
energy (RF) exposure from
wireless phones and other
wireless handsets with the
participation and leadership of
115
Safety Guidelines
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 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
116
phone complies with safety
guidelines.
9. What steps can I take to reduce
my exposure to radiofrequency
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 radiofrequency energy
(RF). 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 radiofrequency
energy (RF), 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 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.
117
Safety Guidelines
11. What about wireless phone
interference with medical
equipment?
Radiofrequency energy (RF) from
wireless phones can interact
with some electronic devices.
For this reason, the FDA helped
develop a detailed test method
to measure electromagnetic
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
118
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 handsfree
device. A number of handsfree
wireless phone accessories are
readily available today. Whether
119
Safety Guidelines
you choose an installed mounted
device for your wireless phone
or a speaker phone accessory,
take advantage of these devices if
available to you.
3. Position your wireless phone
within easy reach. 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.
120
5. Do not 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. Don’t 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 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 is 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 nonemergency
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
121
Safety Guidelines
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 radiofrequency
(RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC)
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
122
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 1.6W/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 0.29 W/kg and when worn on
the body, as described in this user’s
manual, is 1.07 W/kg.
(Body-worn measurements differ
among phones models, depending
upon available accessories and
FCC/IC requirements.) 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/ea/fccid after searching
on FCC ID: BEJP925.
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
123
Safety Guidelines
substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public
and to account for any variations in
measurements.
