Safety Guidelines  
TIA Safety Information  
Provided herein is the complete  
TIA Safety Information for  
Wireless Handheld phones.  
Inclusion of the text covering  
Pacemakers, Hearing Aids,  
and Other Medical Devices is  
required in the owner’s manual  
for CTIA Certification. Use of  
the remaining TIA language is  
encouraged when appropriate.  
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).

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.  
The design of your phone  
complies with the FCC guidelines  
(and those standards).  
116  
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;  
Phone Operation  
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the  
phone as you would any other  
telephone with the antenna  
pointed up and over your  
shoulder.  
Use hands-free operation, if  
available;  
Pull off the road and park  
before making or answering  
a call if driving conditions so  
require.  
Tips on Efficient  
Operation  
For your phone to operate most  
efficiently:  
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.  
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.  
117  
Safety Guidelines  
Pacemakers  
If you have any reason to  
suspect that interference is  
taking place, turn your phone  
OFF immediately.  
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.  
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.  
These recommendations  
are consistent with the  
independent research by and  
recommendations of Wireless  
Technology Research. Persons  
with pacemakers:  
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.

Blasting Areas  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Posted Facilities  
Turn your phone OFF in any  
facility where posted notices so  
require.  
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 butane); areas where

Charger and Adapter Safety  
The charger and adapter are  
intended for indoor use only.  
Battery Information and  
Care  
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.  
For Vehicles Equipped  
with an Air Bag  
An air bag inflates with great  
force. DO NOT place objects,  
including either 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.  
Safety Information  
Please read and observe the  
following information for safe and  
proper use of your phone and to  
prevent damage. Also, keep the  
user guide in an accessible place  
at all the times after reading it.  
Keep the battery’s metal  
contacts clean.

Replace the battery when it  
no longer provides acceptable  
performance. The battery can  
be recharged several hundred  
times before replacement.  
Recharge the battery after  
long periods of non-use to  
maximize battery life.  
Battery life will vary due  
to usage patterns and  
environmental conditions.  
Use of extended backlighting,  
Media Net Browsing, and data  
connectivity kits affect battery  
life and talk/standby times.  
The self-protection function of  
the battery cuts the power of the  
phone when its operation is in  
an abnormal state. In this case,  
remove the battery from the phone,  
reinstall it, and turn the phone on.  
Actual battery life will depend  
on network configuration,  
product settings, usage

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

Although the existing scientific  
data do not justify FDA  
regulatory actions, the FDA  
has urged the wireless phone  
industry to take a number of  
steps, including the following:

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

The FDA belongs to an  
interagency working group

aspects of RF safety to ensure  
coordinated efforts at the  
124  
federal level. The following  
agencies belong to this

research done already?

to measurable radiofrequency  
energy (RF) because of the  
short distance between  
The research done thus far  
has produced conflicting  
results, and many studies have  
suffered from 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

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  
levels of RF could accelerate  
the development of cancer in  
laboratory animals. However,

below the FCC safety limits.  
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  
126  
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 follow-up may be  
needed to provide answers  
about some health effects,  
such as cancer.  
127  
Safety Guidelines  
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  
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 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  
wireless 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

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

wireless phones must report  
the RF exposure level for each  
model of phone to the FCC.

the world.  
7. How can I find out how  
much radiofrequency  
energy exposure I can  
get by using my wireless

The Institute of Electrical and  
Electronic Engineers (IEEE)

standard for measuring the  
radiofrequency energy (RF)  
exposure from wireless phones  
and other wireless handsets

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  
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  
about the RF exposure from  
these products, you can use

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  
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  
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.  
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

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

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

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.

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

paying attention to the road or  
nearby vehicles.  
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  
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.
