LG A7150: Guidelines for safe and efficient use

Guidelines for safe and

efficient use

Read these simple guidelines. Breaking the rules may be dangerous or

illegal. Further detailed information is given in this manual.

Exposure to radio frequency energy

Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate

(SAR) information

This mobile phone model A7150 has been designed to comply with

applicable safety requirement for exposure to radio waves. This

requirement is based on scientific guidelines that include safety margins

designed to assure this 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 standardized method 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), which is 2W/kg averaged over

ten (10) gram of tissue.

• The highest SAR value for this model phone tested by DASY3 for use at

the ear is 0.638 W/kg (10g).

• 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 one (1) gram of

tissue (for example USA, Canada, Australia and Taiwan).

Guidelines for safe and efficient use

Efficient phone operation

To enjoy optimum performance with minimum power consumption please:

• Hold the phone as you speak to any other telephone. While speaking

directly into the microphone, angle the antenna in a direction up and over

your shoulder. If the antenna is extendable/ retractable, it should be

extended during a call.

• Do not hold the antenna when the phone is in use. If you hold it, it can

affect call quality, it also may cause the phone to operate as a higher

power level that needed and shorten talk and standby times.

• If your mobile phone supports infrared, never direct the infrared ray at

anyone’s eye.

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 the pacemaker, i.e.

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 areas

when you drive.

• Do not use a hand-held phone while driving.

• Give full attention to driving.
