Please read these simple guidelines.

Not following these guidelines may

be dangerous or illegal.

Exposure to radio frequency

energy

Radio wave exposure and Specific

Absorption Rate (SAR) information.

This mobile phone model GS290

has been designed to comply with

applicable safety requirements for

exposure to radio waves. These

requirements are 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 standardised

methods with the phone transmitting

at its highest certified power level in

all used frequency bands.

• 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 10g

of tissue.

• The highest SAR value for this model

phone tested by DASY4 for use at

the ear is 0.993 W/kg (10 g) and

when worn on the body is 0.543

W/kg(10 g).

• SAR data information for residents in

countries/regions that have adopted

the SAR limit recommended by the

Institute of Electrical and Electronics

Engineers (IEEE), which is 1.6 W/kg

averaged over 1g of tissue.

Product care and maintenance

WARNING

Only use batteries, chargers and

accessories approved for use

it to a qualified service technician

when repair work is required.

Repairs under warranty, at

LG’soption, may include replacement

parts or boards that are either new

the parts being replaced.

Guidelines for safe and ecient use

LG GS290 | User Guide

heat sources such as radiators or

cookers.

mechanical vibration or shock.

• Switch off the phone in any area

where you are required by special

regulations. For example, do not use

your phone in hospitals as it may

affect sensitive medical equipment.

• Do not handle the phone with wet

hands while it is being charged. It

may cause an electric shock and can

seriously damage your phone.

• Do not charge a handset near

flammable material as the handset

can become hot and create a fire

hazard.

• Use a dry cloth to clean the exterior

of the unit (do not use solvents such

as benzene, thinner or alcohol).

• Do not charge the phone when it is

on soft furnishings.

Efficient phone operation

Electronics devices

All mobile phones may get

interference, which could affect

performance.

• Do not use your mobile phone

near medical equipment without

requesting permission. Avoid placing

the phone over pacemakers, for

example, in your breast pocket.

• Some hearing aids might be

disturbed by mobile phones.

• Minor interference may affect TVs,

radios, PCs, etc.

Road safety

Check the laws and regulations on

the use of mobile phones in the area

when you drive.

Guidelines for safe and ecient use

• Do not use a hand-held phone while

driving.

• Give full attention to driving.

• Use a hands-free kit, if available.

• Pull off the road and park before

making or answering a call if driving

conditions so require.

• RF energy may affect some

electronic systems in your vehicle

such as car stereos and safety

equipment.

• When your vehicle is equipped

with an air bag, do not obstruct

with installed or portable wireless

equipment. It can cause the air bag

to fail or cause serious injury due to

improper performance.

• If you are listening to music whilst

out and about, please ensure that

the volume is at a reasonable

level so that you are aware of your

surroundings. This is particularly

imperative when near roads.

Avoid damage to your hearing

Damage to your hearing can occur

if you are exposed to loud sound for

long periods of time. We therefore

recommend that you do not turn on

or off the handset close to your ear. We

also recommend that music and call

volumes are set to a reasonable level.

Glass Parts

Some parts of your mobile device are

made of glass. This glass could break

if your mobile device is dropped on a

hard surface or receives a substantial

impact. If the glass breaks, do not

touch or attempt to remove. Stop

using your mobile device until the

glass is replaced by an authorized

service provider.

Blasting area

Do not use the phone where blasting

is in progress. Observe restrictions,

and follow any regulations or rules.

Potentially explosive

gas, liquid, or explosives in the same

compartment of your vehicle as your

boarding any aircraft.

LG GS290 | User Guide

Keep the phone in a safe place out

of the reach of small children. It

includes small parts which may cause

a choking hazard if detached.

Emergency calls

under all mobile networks. Therefore,

you should never depend solely on

the phone for emergency calls. Check

with your local service provider.
