or http://www. lg.com/common/index. jsp
----> select country.
This Feature allows you to update the
firmware of your phone to the latest version
conveniently from the internet without the
21
need to visit a service centre.
As the mobile phone firmware update
requires the user’s full attention for the
duration of the update process, please make
sure to check all instructions and notes that
appear at each step before proceeding.
Please note that removing the USB data
cable or battery during the upgrade may

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Please read these simple guidelines. Not
following these guidelines may be dangerous
or illegal.
Exposure to radio frequency
energy
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL
GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO
WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured
not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) recommended by international
guidelines (ICNIRP). These limits are part
of comprehensive guidelines and establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines were developed by
independent scientific organisations through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. The guidelines include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure the safety of
all persons, regardless of age or health.
The exposure standard for mobile devices
employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit stated in the international guidelines is
2.0W/kg*. Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions with the device
transmitting at its highest certified power level
in all tested frequency bands. Although the
SAR is determined at the highest certified
power level, the actual SAR of the device while
operating can be well below the maximum
value. This is because the device is designed
to operate at multiple power levels so as to use
only the power required to reach the network. In
23
general, the closer you are to a base station, the
lower the power output of the device. Before a
phone model is available for sale to the public,
compliance with the European R&TTE directive
must be shown. This directive includes as one
essential requirement the protection of the
health and the safety for the user and any other
person.
The highest SAR value for this device when
tested for use at the ear is 0.783W/kg.
This device meets RF exposure guidelines when
used either in the normal use position against
the ear or when positioned at least 1.5cm away
from the body. When a carry case, belt clip or
holder is used for body-worn operation, it should
not contain metal and should position the
product at least 1.5cm away from your body.
In order to transmit data files or messages,
this device requires a quality connection to the
network. In some cases, transmission of data
files or messages may be delayed until such
a connection is available. Ensure the above
separation distance instructions are followed
until the transmission is completed. The highest
SAR value for this device when tested for use at
the body is 0.880W/kg.
* The SAR limit for mobile devices used by the
public is 2.0watts/ kilogram (W/kg) averaged
over ten grams of body tissue. The guidelines
incorporate a substantial margin of safety to
give additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in measurements.
SAR values may vary depending on national
reporting requirements and the network band.
24
FCC SAR information
Your mobile device is also designed to meet
the requirements for exposure to radio waves
established by the Federal Communications
Commission (USA) and Industry Canada.
These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6W/
kg averaged over 1gram of tissue. The highest
SAR value reported under this standard during
product certification for use at the ear is
0.998W/kg and when properly worn on the
body is 0.937 W/kg.
Additionally, this device was tested for typical
body-worn operations with the back of the
phone kept 1.5cm (0.59 inches) between the
users body and the back of the phone.
To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements,
a minimum separation distance of 1.5cm (0.59
inches) must be maintained between the user’s
body and the back of the phone.
* FCC Notice & Caution
Notice!
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
Part 15.105 statement
This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in
25
a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference or
television reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
Caution!
Change or Modifications that are not specifically
approved by the manufacturer could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
