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:  
3. STATE LAW RIGHTS:  
No other express warranty is applicable to this product. THE  
DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING  
THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MARKETABILITY OR  
MERCHANTABILITY, IS LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF  
THE EXPRESS WARRANTY HEREIN. LG INFOCOMM U.S.A.,  
INC. SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE LOSS OF THE USE OF  
THE PRODUCT, INCONVENIENCE, LOSS OR ANY OTHER  
DAMAGES, DIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL, ARISING OUT OF  
THE USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THIS PRODUCT OR  
FOR ANY BREACH OF ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED  
WARRANTY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF  
MARKETABILITY OR MERCHANTABILITY APPLICABLE TO  
THIS PRODUCT.  
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 hands-free device. A number of  
hands-free wireless phone accessories are readily available  
today. Whether you choose an installed mounted device for  
your wireless phone or a speaker phone accessory, take  
advantage of these devices if available to you.  
Some states do not allow the exclusive of limitation of incidental or  
consequential damages or limitations on how long an implied  
warranty lasts; so these limitations or exclusions may not apply to  
you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also  
have other rights, which vary from state to state.  
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 voice mail answer it for you.  
4. HOW TO GET WARRANTY SERVICE:  
To obtain warranty service, please call the following telephone  
number from anywhere in the continental United States:  
Tel. 1-800-793-8896  
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.  
Please call or write for the location of the LGE authorized service  
center nearest you and the procedures for obtaining warranty claims.

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’s 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.  
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.  
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.  
10. Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-  
emergency 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 still can 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 numbers.  
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.  
The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely  
when driving.  
For more information, please call to 888-901-SAFE, or visit our  
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!

THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE  
GOVERNMENTS 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 radio frequency (RF) energy set by  
the Federal Communications Commission 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 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 1.28 mW/g and when worn on the body, as  
described in this user guide, is 0.83 mW/g. (Body-worn  
measurements differ among phone models, depending  
upon available accessories and FCC 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.  
* 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 substantial margin of safety to give  
additional protection for the public and to account for any  
variations in measurements.  
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  
BEJTM520.  
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR)  
can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry

The Cellular and PCS CDMA networks consist of  
MSO (Mobile Switching Office), BSC (Base Station  
Controller), BTS (Base station Transmission System),  
and MS (Mobile Station). The following table lists  
some major CDMA Standards.  
SUBJECT  
The VX1 phone has been designed to operate on the  
latest digital mobile communication technology, Code  
Division Multiple Access (CDMA). This CDMA digital  
technology has greatly enhanced voice clarity and can  
provide a variety of advanced features. Currently,  
CDMA mobile communication technology has been  
commercially used in Cellular and Personal  
Communication Service (PCS).

The difference between them is operating frequency  
spectrum. Cellular uses 800Mhz and PCS uses  
1.9Ghz. The VX1 operates on both frequencies, this is  
called a dual-mode phone. Also, the VX1 works on  
Advanced Mobile Phone Service (AMPS). We call it a tri-  
mode phone. If one of the Cellular, PCS or AMPS base  
stations is located nearby, call fail rate of a tri-mode  
phone is less than a dual-mode phone or a single-mode  
phone.  
CDMA technology adopts DSSS (Direct Sequence  
Spread Spectrum). DSSS enables the phone to keep  
communication from being crossed and to use one  
frequency channel by multiple users in the same  
specific area, resulting in a 10 fold increase in capacity  
when compared with the analog mode currently used.  
Soft/Softer Handoff, Hard Handoff, and Dynamic RF  
power Control technologies are combined into this  
phone to reduce call interruptions.

Chapter 10. Safety Guidelines  
Safety Information  
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal  
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio  
transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out  
radio frequency (RF) signals.  
European and international agencies have set standards and  
recommendations for the protection of public exposure to RF  
electromagnetic energy.  
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection  
(ICNIRP) 1996  
Verband Deutscher Elektrotechnik (VDE) DIN-0848  
Directives of the European Community, Directorate General V in  
Matters of Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Energy  
National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom,  
GS 11, 1988  
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE C95.1-1992  
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements  
(NCRP), Report 86  
Department of Heath and Welfare Canada, Safety Code 6  
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic  
evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. 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 these standards when used  
normally. Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.  
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage  
the phone and may violate FCC regulations.

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.  
Efficient Phone Operation  
Normal Position  
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna  
pointed up and over your shoulder.  
Most modem electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals.  
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the  
RF signals from your wireless phone.  
Tips on Efficient Operation:  
For your phone to operate most efficiently;  
Pacemakers  
Extend your antenna fully.  
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.  
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.  
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag  
Persons with pacemakers  
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including  
both installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air  
bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment  
is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could  
result.  
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  
Batteries  
If you have any reason to suspect that interference in taking place,  
turn your phone OFF immediately.  
Caution: All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns if a  
conductive material, such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains, touches  
exposed terminals. The material may complete an electrical circuit  
and become quite hot. To protect against such unwanted current  
drain, exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when  
placing it inside your pocket, purse or other container with metal  
objects. Your batteries are packed with a protective battery cover.  
When the battery is detached from the phone, please use this cover  
for storing your batteries when not in use.  
Hearing Aids  
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids.  
In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your  
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.  
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones  
in the areas where you drive. Always obey them.

FDA Consumer Update  
The FDA has been receiving inquiries about the safety of mobile  
phones, including cellular phones and PCS phones. The following  
summarizes what is knownand what remains unknownabout  
whether these products can pose a hazard to health, and what can be  
done to minimize any potential risk. This information may be used to  
respond to questions.  
If you use any 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. 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 be using equipment that could be sensitive  
to external RF energy.  
Why the concern?  
Mobile phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (i.e.,  
radiofrequency radiation) in the microwave range while being used.  
They also emit very low levels of radiofrequency energy (RF),  
considered non-significant, when in the standby mode. It is well  
known that high levels of RF can produce biological damage through  
heating effects (this is how your microwave oven is able to cook  
food). However, it is not known whether, to what extent, or through  
what mechanism, lower levels of RF might cause adverse health  
effects as well. Although some research has been done to address  
these questions, no clear picture of the biological effects of this type  
of radiation has emerged to date. Thus, the available science does  
not allow us to conclude that mobile phones are absolutely safe, or  
that they are unsafe. However, the available scientific evidence does  
not demonstrate any adverse health effects associated with the use  
of mobile phones.  
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.  
Posted Facilities  
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notice so require.  
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch  
OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.  
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF  
when in a blasting area or in areas posted Turn off two-way radio.  
Obey all signals and instructions.  
What kinds of phones are in question?  
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.  
Questions have been raised about hand-held mobile phones,  
especially the kind that have a built-in antenna that is positioned close  
to the users head during normal telephone conversation. These types  
of mobile phones are of concern because of the short distance  
between the phones antennathe primary source of the RFand  
the persons head. The exposure to RF from mobile phones in which  
the antenna is located at greater distances from the user (on the  
outside of a car, for example) is drastically lower than that from hand-  
held phones, because a persons RF exposure decreases rapidly with  
distance from the source. The safety of so-called cordless phones,  
which have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house  
and which operate at far lower power levels and frequencies, has not  
been questioned.  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are not always clearly  
marked. They 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 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.

How much evidence is there that hand-held mobile phones might be  
harmful?  
When 20 types of glioma were considered separately, however, an  
association was found between mobile phone use and one rare type  
of glioma, neuroepithelliomatous tumors. It is possible with multiple  
comparisons of the same sample that this association occurred by  
chance. Moreover, the risk did not increase with how often the  
mobile phone was used, or the length of the calls. In fact, the risk  
actually decreased with cumulative hours of mobile phone use. Most  
cancer causing agents increase risk with increased exposure. An on-  
going study of brain cancers by the National Cancer Institute is  
expected to bear on the accuracy and repeatability of these results.  
Briefly, there is not enough evidence to know for sure, either way;  
however, research efforts are on-going.  
The existing scientific evidence is conflicting and many of the studies  
that have been done to date have suffered from flaws in their  
research methods. Animal experiments investigating the effects of RF  
exposures characteristic of mobile phones have yielded conflicting  
results. A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low  
levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer in laboratory  
animals. In one study, mice genetically altered to be predisposed to  
developing one type of cancer developed more than twice as many  
such cancers when they were exposed to RF energy compared to  
controls. There is much uncertainty among scientists about whether  
results obtained from animal studies apply to the use of mobile  
phones. First, it is uncertain how to apply the results obtained in rats  
and mice to humans. Second, many of the studies that showed  
increased tumor development used animals that had already been  
treated with cancer-causing chemicals, and other studies exposed the  
animals to the RF virtually continuouslyup to 22 hours per day.  
1. Researchers conducted a large battery of laboratory tests to  
assess the effects of exposure to mobile phone RF on genetic  
material. These included tests for several kinds of abnormalities,  
including mutations, chromosomal aberrations, DNA strand breaks,  
and structural changes in the genetic material of blood cells called  
lymphocytes. None of the tests showed any effect of the RF except  
for the micronucleus assay, which detects structural effects on the  
genetic material. The cells in this assay showed changes after  
exposure to simulated cell phone radiation, but only after 24 hours of  
exposure. It is possible that exposing the test cells to radiation for this  
long resulted in heating. Since this assay is known to be sensitive to  
heating, heat alone could have caused the abnormalities to occur.  
The data already in the literature on the response of the micronucleus  
assay to RF are conflicting. Thus, follow-up research is necessary.  
For the past five years in the United States, the mobile phone  
industry has supported research into the safety of mobile phones.  
This research has resulted in two findings in particular that merit  
additional study:  
2. FDA is currently working with government, industry, and academic  
groups to ensure the proper follow-up to these industry-funded  
research findings. Collaboration with the Cellular Telecommunications  
Industry Association (CTIA) in particular is expected to lead to FDA  
providing research recommendations and scientific oversight of new  
CTIA-funded research based on such recommendations.  
In a hospital-based, case-control study, researchers looked for an  
association between mobile phone use and either glioma (a type of  
brain cancer) or acoustic neuroma (a benign tumor of the nerve  
sheath). No statistically significant association was found between  
mobile phone use and acoustic neuroma. There was also no  
association between mobile phone use and gliomas when all types  
of types of gliomas were considered together. It should be noted that  
the average length of mobile phone exposure in this study was less  
than three years.

Two other studies of interest have been reported recently in the  
literature:  
One way to answer that question is to compare the usage of mobile  
phones among people with brain cancer with the use of mobile phones  
among appropriately matched people without brain cancer. This is  
called a case-control study. The current case-control study of brain  
cancers by the National Cancer Institute, as well as the follow-up  
research to be sponsored by industry, will begin to generate this type  
of information.  
Two groups of 18 people were exposed to simulated mobile phone  
signals under laboratory conditions while they performed cognitive  
function tests. There were no changes in the subjectsability to recall  
words, numbers, or pictures, or in their spatial memory, but they were  
able to make choices more quickly in one visual test when they were  
exposed to simulated mobile phone signals. This was the only change  
noted among more than 20 variables compared.  
What is FDAs role concerning the safety of mobile phones?  
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting  
consumer products such as mobile phones before marketing, as it  
does with new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has  
authority to take action if mobile phones are shown to emit radiation at  
a level that is hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA could require  
the manufacturers of mobile phones to notify users of the health  
hazard and to repair, replace, or recall the phones so that the hazard  
no longer exists.  
3. In a study of 209 brain tumor cases and 425 matched controls,  
there was no increased risk of brain tumors associated with mobile  
phone use. When tumors did exist in certain locations, however, they  
were more likely to be on the side of the head where the mobile  
phone was used. Because this occurred in only a small number of  
cases, the increased likelihood was too small to be statistically  
significant.  
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory  
actions at this time, FDA has urged the mobile phone industry to take a  
number of steps to assure public safety. The agency has  
recommended that the industry support needed research into possible  
biological effects of RF of the type emitted by mobile phones, design  
mobile phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user  
that is not necessary for device function, and cooperate in providing  
mobile phone users with the best possible information on what is  
known about possible effects of mobile phone use on human health.  
4. In summary, we do not have enough information at this point to  
assure the public that there are, or are not, any low incident health  
problems associated with use of mobile phones. FDA continues to  
work with all parties, including other federal agencies and industry, to  
assure that research is undertaken to provide the necessary answers  
to the outstanding questions about the safety of mobile phones.  
What is known about cases of human cancer that have been reported  
in users of hand-held mobile phones?  
Some people who have used mobile phones have been diagnosed  
with brain cancer. But it is important to understand that this type of  
cancer also occurs among people who have not used mobile phones.  
In fact, brain cancer occurs in the U.S. population at a rate of about 6  
new cases per 100,000 people each year. At that rate, assuming 80  
million users of mobile phones (a number increasing at a rate of about  
1 million per month), about 4800 cases of brain cancer would be  
expected each year among those 80 million people, whether or not  
they used their phones. Thus it is not possible to tell whether any  
individuals cancer arose because of the phone, or whether it would  
have happened anyway. A key question is whether the risk of getting  
a particular form of cancer is greater among people who use mobile  
phones than among the rest of the population.  
At the same time, FDA belongs to an interagency working group of  
the federal agencies that have responsibility for different aspects of  
mobile phone safety to ensure a coordinated effort at the federal  
level. These agencies are:  
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health  
Environmental Protection Agency  
Federal Communications Commission  
Occupational Health and Safety Administration  
National Telecommunications and Information Administration  
The National Institutes of Health also participates in this group.  
In the absence of conclusive information about any possible risk,  
what can concerned individuals do?

If there is a risk from these productsand at this point we do not  
know that there isit is probably very small. But if people are  
concerned about avoiding even potential risks, there are simple steps  
they can take to do so. For example, time is a key factor in how much  
exposure a person receives. Those persons who spend long periods  
of time on their hand-held mobile phones could consider holding  
lengthy conversations on conventional phones and reserving the  
hand-held models for shorter conversations or for situations when  
other types of phones are not available.  
Product manufactured or sold in U.S.; This product is covered by U.S. Pat.  
5,818,437, U.S. Pat. 5,953,541, U.S. Pat. 6,011,554 and other patents pending.”  
People who must conduct extended conversations in their cars every  
day could switch to a type of mobile phone that places more distance  
between their bodies and the source of the RF, since the exposure  
level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, they could  
switch to a mobile phone in which the antenna is located outside the  
vehicle, a hand-held phone with a built-in antenna connected to a  
different antenna mounted on the outside of the car or built into a  
separate package, or a headset with a remote antenna to a mobile  
phone carried at the waist.  
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that mobile phones are  
harmful. But if people are concerned about the radiofrequency energy  
from these products, taking the simple precautions outlined above can  
reduce any possible risk.
