Health and safety information from the manufacturer

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.

Third party equipment

>The use of third party equipment, cables or accessories, not made or authorised by LG, may invalidate the warranty of your handset and also adversely affect the handset’s safety or operation.

Service

>The handset, batteries and charger contain no user-serviceable parts. LG recommend that your LG U8360 handset is serviced or repaired by an LG authorised service centre.

Efficient use

>The handset has an antenna. For optimum performance with minimum power consumption, please do not cover the antenna area with your hand. Covering the antenna affects call quality and may cause the handset to operate at a higher power level than required. This decreases talk and standby time.

Radio frequency energy

>Your handset is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy (radio waves). The system that handles the call (the network) controls the power level at which the handset transmits.

Exposure to radio frequency energy

Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information:

>This handset model LG U8360 has been designed to comply with safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. The requirement is 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 a standardised method with the mobile transmitting at its highest certified power level in all used frequency bands.

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various LG handset 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-Ionising Radiation Protection (CNIRP), is 2W/kg averaged over ten (10) grams of tissue.

The highest SAR value for this model mobile tested by SASY3 for use at the ear is 0.904 W/KG (10g).

The SAR limit recommended by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), which is

1.6W/kg averaged over one (1) grams of tissue (for example USA, Canada, Australia and Taiwan).
