not be recognized. Make sure that your finger covers the entire surface

of the Power/Lock key.

proceeding. Please note that removing the USB cable during the upgrade

may seriously damage your mobile phone.

Anti-Theft Guide

Set up your device to prevent other people from using it if it's been reset

to factory settings without your permission. For example, if your device is

lost, stolen, or wiped, only someone with your Google account or screen

lock information can use the device.

All you need to make sure your device is protected is:

• Set a screen lock: If your device is lost or stolen but you have a screen

lock set, the device can't be erased using the Settings menu unless

your screen is unlocked.

• Add your Google account on your device: If your device is wiped but

you have your Google account on it, the device can't finish the setup

process until your Google account information is entered again.

After your device is protected, you'll need to either unlock your screen or

enter your Google account password if you need to do a factory reset.

This ensures that you or someone you trust is doing the reset.

• Do not forget your Google account and password you had added to

your device prior to performing a factory reset. If you can't provide the

account information during the setup process, you won't be able to use

the device at all after performing the factory reset.

Consumer Information About Radio Frequency

Emissions

Your wireless phone, which contains a radio transmitter and receiver, emits

radio frequency energy during use. The following consumer information

addresses commonly asked questions about the health effects of wireless

phones.

Are wireless phones safe?

Scientific research on the subject of wireless phones and radio frequency (“RF”)

energy has been conducted worldwide for many years, and continues. In the United

States, the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and the Federal Communications

Commission (“FCC”) set policies and procedures for wireless phones. The FDA

issued a website publication on health issues related to cell phone usage where it

states, “The scientific community at large … believes that the weight of scientific

evidence does not show an association between exposure to radiofrequency (RF)

from cell phones and adverse health outcomes. Still the scientific community

does recommend conducting additional research to address gaps in knowledge.

That research is being conducted around the world and FDA continues to

monitor developments in this field. You can access the joint FDA/FCC website at

http://www.fda.gov

(under “c”in the subject index, select Cell Phones > Research).

You can also contact the FDA toll-free at (888) 463-6332 or (888) INFO-FDA.

For Your Safety 154

In June 2000, the FDA entered into a cooperative research and development

agreement through which additional scientific research is being conducted. The FCC

issued its own website publication stating that “there is no scientific evidence that

proves that wireless phone usage can lead to cancer or a variety of other problems,

including headaches, dizziness or memory loss.” This publication is available at

http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/cellular.html

or through the FCC at (888) 225-5322 or

(888) CALL-FCC.

What does “SAR” mean?

In 1996, the FCC, working with the FDA, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,

and other agencies, established RF exposure safety guidelines for wireless phones

in the United States. Before a wireless phone model is available for sale to the

public, it must be tested by the manufacturer and certified to the FCC that it does

not exceed limits established by the FCC. One of these limits is expressed as a

Specific Absorption Rate, or “SAR.” SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF

energy in the body. Tests for SAR are conducted with the phone transmitting at its

highest power level in all tested frequency bands. Since 1996, the FCC has required

that the SAR of handheld wireless phones not exceed 1.6 watts per kilogram,

averaged over one gram of tissue. Although the SAR is determined at the highest

power level, the actual SAR value of a wireless phone while operating can be less

than the reported SAR value. This is because the SAR value may vary from call to

call, depending on factors such as proximity to a cell site, the proximity of the phone

to the body while in use, and the use of hands-free devices.

For more information about SARs, see the FCC’s OET Bulletins 56 and 65

at

http://ww.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Engineering_Technology/Documents/bulletins

or visit the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association website at

http://www.ctia.org/consumer_info/index.cfm/AID/10371

. You may also wish to

contact the manufacturer of your phone.

For Your Safety 155

Can I minimize my RF exposure?

If you are concerned about RF, there are several simple steps you can take to

minimize your RF exposure. You can, of course, reduce your talk time.

You can place more distance between your body and the source of the RF, as the

exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. The FDA/FCC website states

that “hands-free kits can be used with wireless phones for convenience and

comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF energy in the head because

the phone, which is the source of the RF emissions, will not be placed against the

head. On the other hand, if the phone is mounted against the waist or other part

of the body during use, then that part of the body will absorb more RF energy.

Wireless phones marketed in the U.S. are required to meet safety requirements

regardless of whether they are used against the head or against the body. Either

configuration should result in compliance with the safety limit.” Also, if you use your

wireless phone while in a car, you can use a phone with an antenna on the outside

of the vehicle. You should also read and follow your wireless phone manufacturer’s

instructions for the safe operation of your phone.

Do wireless phones pose any special risks to children?

The FDA/FCC website states that “the scientific evidence does not show a

danger to users of wireless communication devices, including children.” The FDA/

FCC website further states that “some groups sponsored by other national

governments have advised that children be discouraged from using wireless phones

at all”. For example, the Stewart Report from the United Kingdom [“UK”] made

such a recommendation in December 2000. In this report a group of independent

experts noted that no evidence exists that using a cell phone causes brain tumors

or other ill effects. [The UK’s] recommendation to limit cell phone use by children

was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health

hazard exists. A copy of the UK’s leaflet is available at

http://www.dh.gov.uk

(search

“mobile”), or you can write to: NRPB, Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11 ORQ, United

Kingdom. Copies of the UK’s annual reports on mobile phones and RF are available

online at

www.iegmp.org.uk

and

http://www.hpa.org.uk/radiation/

(search “mobile”).

Parents who wish to reduce their children’s RF exposure may choose to restrict

their children’s wireless phone use.

Consumer Information on SAR

(Specific Absorption Rate)

This model phone meets the government’s 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.

For Your Safety 158

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 1.6

W/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 values are:

* Head: 0.70 W/kg

* Body (Body-worn/Hotspot): 1.19 W/kg

(Body 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.

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

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid

after

searching on FCC ID ZNFH871. Additional information on Specific Absorption

Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association

(CTIA) website at

http://www.ctia.org/

.

* 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.

For Your Safety 159

FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC)

Regulations for Wireless Devices

On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Report and

Order in WT Docket 01-309 modified the exception of wireless phones under the

Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones

be compatible with hearingaids. The intent of the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable

access to telecommunications services for persons with hearing disabilities. While

some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and

cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some

hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and

phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for wireless phones,

to assist hearing device users to find phones that may be compatible with their

hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated have the

rating on their box or a label located on the box.

The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing

device and hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to

interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the

phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal

needs.

M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to

generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4

is the better/higher of the two ratings. T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC

requirements and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than

phones that are not labeled. T4 is the better/ higher of the two ratings.

Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing

health professional may help you find this rating. Higher ratings mean that the

hearing device is relatively immune to interference noise. The hearing aid and

wireless phone rating values are then added together.

For Your Safety 160

A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is considered for

best use.

In the above example, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating and the

wireless phone meets the M3 level rating, the sum of the two values

equal M5. This should provide the hearing aid user with “normal usage”

while using their hearing aid with the particular wireless phone. “Normal

usage” in this context is defined as a signal quality that’s acceptable for

normal operation.

The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The T mark is intended

to be synonymous with the UT mark. The M and T marks are recommended by

the Alliance for Telecommunications Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT

marks are referenced in Section 20.19 of the FCC Rules. The HAC rating and

measurement procedure are described in the American National Standards

Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.

To ensure that the Hearing Aid Compatibility rating for your phone is maintained,

secondary transmitters such as Bluetooth and WLAN components must be

disabled during a call.

For Your Safety 161

Caution:

Avoid potential hearing loss.

Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the most common

cause of preventable hearing loss. Some scientific research suggests that using

portable audio devices, such as portable music players and cellular telephones, at

high volume settings for long durations may lead to permanent noise-induced

hearing loss. This includes the use of headphones (including headsets, earbuds and

Bluetooth or other wireless devices). Exposure to very loud sound has also been

associated in some studies with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to

sound and distorted hearing. Individual susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss

and other potential hearing problems varies.

The amount of sound produced by a portable audio device varies depending on

the nature of the sound, the device, the device settings and the headphones. You

should follow some commonsense recommendations when using any portable

audio device:

• Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume at which

you can hear adequately.

• When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the people

speaking near you or if the person sitting next to you can hear what you are

listening to.

• Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings. If you choose

to listen to your portable device in a noisy environment, use noise-canceling

headphones to block out background environmental noise.

• Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume increases, less time is

required before your hearing could be affected.

• Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises, such as rock

concerts, that might cause temporary hearing loss. Temporary hearing loss

might cause unsafe volumes to sound normal.

• Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you experience

ringing in your ears, hear muffled speech or experience any temporary hearing

difficulty after listening to your portable audio device, discontinue use and

consult your doctor.

For Your Safety 162

TIA Safety Information

The following is the complete TIA Safety Information for wireless handheld phones.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal

Your wireless handheld portable phone is a low power radio transmitter and

receiver. When ON, it receives and 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. 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)

* American National Standards Institute; National Council on Radiation Protection

and Measurements; International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation

Protection.

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).

The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).

Tips on Efficient Operation

For your phone to operate most efficiently:

Don’t 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 Your Safety 163

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.

Pacemakers

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.

Persons with pacemakers:

• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) 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;

• Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that

interference is taking place.

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 (or call the

customer service line to discuss alternatives).

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your

device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your

physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Health Care Facilities

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 use equipment

that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

For Your Safety 164

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 notices so require.

Aircraft

FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch OFF your phone

before boarding an aircraft.

Blasting Areas

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 signs and

instructions.

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. 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 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.

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.

FDA Consumer Update

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health

Consumer Update on Mobile Phones:

1. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?

The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are

associated with using wireless phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless

phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency

(RF) energy in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low

levels of RF when in 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 been confirmed

by additional research. In some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in

reproducing those studies, or in determining the reasons for inconsistent results.

2. What is the FDA’s role concerning the safety of wireless

phones?

Under the law, the FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting consumer

products such as wireless phones before they can be sold, as it does with new

drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has authority to take action if

wireless phones are shown to emit Radio Frequency (RF) energy 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 exists. 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:

• Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type

emitted by wireless phones;

• Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user

that is not necessary for device function; and

• Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best possible

information on possible effects of wireless phone use on human health.

For Your Safety 170

The FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that

have responsibility for different aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts

at the federal level. The following agencies belong to this working group:

• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health

• Environmental Protection Agency

• Occupational Safety and Health Administration

• National Telecommunications and Information Administration

The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency working group

activities, as well.

The FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States

must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF exposure. The FCC relies on

the FDA and other health agencies for safety questions about wireless phones.

The FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networks rely

upon. While these base stations operate at higher power than do the wireless

phones themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these base stations are

typically thousands of times lower than those they can get from wireless phones.

Base stations are thus not the subject of the safety questions discussed in this

document.

3. What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?

The term “wireless phone” refers here to handheld wireless phones with built-in

antennas, often called “cell”, “mobile”, or “PCS” phones. These types of wireless

phones can expose the user to measurable Radio Frequency (RF) energy because

of the short distance between the phone and the user’s 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 have a base unit connected

to the telephone wiring in a house, typically operate at far lower power levels, and

thus produce RF exposures far below the FCC safety limits.

For Your Safety 171

4. What are the results of the research done already?

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 Radio Frequency (RF) energy 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 levels of RF

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

of the studies that showed increased tumor development used animals that had

been genetically engineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to

be pre-disposed to develop cancer in the absence of RF exposure. Other studies

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 do not

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 long-term

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 ten or more years follow-up

may be needed to provide answers about some health effects, such as cancer.

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 wireless phones. Many factors affect

this measurement, such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which model of

phone is used.

For Your Safety 172

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 animal studies are

conducted to address important questions about the effects of exposure to Radio

Frequency (RF) energy.

The FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organization

International Electro Magnetic 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

the scientific oversight, obtaining input from experts in government, industry, and

academic organizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted through contracts

with independent investigators. The initial research will include both laboratory

studies and studies of wireless phone users. The CRADA will also include a broad

assessment of additional research needs in the context of the latest research

developments around the world.

7. How can I find out how much Radio Frequency energy

exposure I can get by using my wireless phone?

All phones sold in the United States must comply with Federal Communications

Commission (FCC) guidelines that limit Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposures.

The FCC established these guidelines in consultation with the FDA and the other

federal health and safety agencies. The FCC limit for RF exposure from wireless

phones is set at a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per 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 effects. Manufacturers

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

the FCC. The FCC website (

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety

) gives directions for

locating the FCC identification number on your phone so you can find your phone’s

RF exposure level in the online listing.

For Your Safety 173

8. What has the FDA done to measure the Radio Frequency

energy coming from wireless phones?

The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical

standard for measuring the Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposure from wireless

phones and other wireless handsets with the participation and leadership of FDA

scientists and engineers. The standard, “Recommended Practice for Determining

the Spatial-Peak Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in the Human Body Due to

Wireless Communications Devices: Experimental Techniques”, sets forth the first

consistent test methodology for measuring the rate at which RF is deposited in the

heads of wireless phone users. The test method uses a tissue-simulating model of

the human head.

Standardized SAR test methodology is expected to greatly improve the consistency

of measurements made at different laboratories on the same phone. SAR is the

measurement of the amount of energy absorbed in tissue, either by the whole

body or a small part of the body. It is measured in

watts/kg (or milliwatts/g) of matter. This measurement is used to determine

whether a wireless phone complies with safety guidelines.

9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to Radio

Frequency energy from my wireless phone?

If there is a risk from these products — and at this point we do not know that

there is — it is probably very small. But if you are concerned about avoiding even

potential risks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize your exposure to Radio

Frequency (RF) energy. 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 does not

demonstrate that wireless phones are harmful. But if you are concerned about the

RF exposure from these products, you can use measures like those described above

to reduce your RF exposure from wireless phone use.

For Your Safety 174

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 Radio Frequency (RF) energy, 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 example,

the government in the United Kingdom 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?

Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless phones can interact with some

electronic devices. For this reason, the FDA helped develop a detailed test

method to measure Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac

pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless telephones. This test method 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 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 wireless phones for possible interactions

with other medical devices. Should harmful interference be found to occur, the FDA

will conduct testing to assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.

Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless phones in the areas where

you drive and always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please

observe the following:

• 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

or the law require it.

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:

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.

For Your Safety 176

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.

3. 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 voicemail answer it for you.

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.

5. Don’t 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 is common sense. Do not get caught in a

dangerous situation because you are reading or writing and not paying attention

to the road or nearby vehicles.

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. 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.

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’s 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 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.

For Your Safety 177

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 can still 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

number.

The above tips are meant as general guidelines. Before deciding to use your mobile

device while operating a vehicle, it is recommended that you consult your applicable

jurisdiction’s local laws or other regulations regarding such use. Such laws or other

regulations may prohibit or otherwise restrict the manner in which a driver may use

his or her phone while operating a vehicle.

by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) and will be conducted before a

single arbitrator under the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules that are in effect

at the time the arbitration is initiated (referred to as the “AAA Rules”) and under

the procedures set forth in this section. The AAA Rules are available online at

www.adr.org/consumer

. Send a copy of your written demand for arbitration, as

well as a copy of this provision, to the AAA in the manner described in the AAA

Rules. You must also send a copy of your written demand to LG at LG Electronics,

USA, Inc.Attn: Legal Department- Arbitration1000 Sylvan AvenueEnglewood

Cliffs, NJ 07632. If there is a conflict between the AAA Rules and the rules set

forth in this section, the rules set forth in this section will govern. This arbitration

provision is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. Judgment may be entered on

the arbitrator’s award in any court of competent jurisdiction. All issues are for the

LIMITED WARRANTY STATEMENT 183

arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of

the arbitration provision and to the arbitrability of the dispute are for the court to

decide. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this provision.

Governing Law: The law of the state of your residence shall govern this Limited

Warranty and any disputes between us except to the extent that such law is

preempted by or inconsistent with applicable federal law.

Fees/Costs. You do not need to pay any fee to begin an arbitration. Upon receipt

of your written demand for arbitration, LG will promptly pay all arbitration filing

fees to the AAA unless you seek more than $25,000 in damages, in which case

the payment of these fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. Except as otherwise

provided for herein, LG will pay all AAA filing, administration and arbitrator fees

for any arbitration initiated in accordance with the AAA Rules and this arbitration

provision. If you prevail in the arbitration, LG will pay your reasonable attorneys’

fees and expenses to the extent required by applicable law. If the arbitrator finds

either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the demand is frivolous

or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all arbitration fees will

be governed by the AAA Rules. In such a situation, you agree to reimburse LG for all

monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under

the AAA Rules.

Except as otherwise provided for, LG waives any rights it may have to seek

attorneys’ fees and expenses from you if LG prevails in the arbitration.

Hearings and Location. If your claim is for $25,000 or less, you may choose to

have the arbitration conducted solely on the basis of (1) documents submitted to

the arbitrator, (2) through a telephonic hearing, or (3) by an in-person hearing as

established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $25,000, the right to a hearing

will be determined by the AAA Rules. Any in-person arbitration hearings will be held

at a location within the federal judicial district in which you reside unless we both

agree to another location or we agree to a telephonic arbitration.
