Guidelines for safe and effi cient use
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 GC900
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
0.974 W/kg (10g)
and when worn on the body is
0.840 W/Kg(10g).
The SAR limit recommended by
the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is 1.6
W/kg averaged over 1g of tissue.

Product care and
maintenance
WARNING
Only use batteries, chargers
and accessories approved for
use with this particular phone

types may invalidate any
approval or warranty applying

dangerous.
Do not disassemble this unit. Take
it to a qualified service technician
when repair work is required.
Keep away from electrical
appliances such as TVs, radios, and
personal computers.
The unit should be kept away from
heat sources such as radiators or
cookers.
Do not drop.
Do not subject this unit to
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 to 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.
The phone should be charged in a
well ventilated area.
10
LG GC900 | User Guide

excessive smoke or dust.
Do not keep the phone next to
credit cards or transport tickets; it
can affect the information on the
magnetic strips.
Do not tap the screen with a
sharp object as it may damage the
phone.
Do not expose the phone to liquid

Efficient phone operation
Electronics devices
All mobile phones may get
interference, which could affect
performance.
Do not use your mobile phone
near medical equipment.
Avoid placing the phone over
pacemakers, for example, in your
breast pocket.
Mobile phones may interfere with
some hearing aids.
Minor interference may affect TVs,
radios, PCs, etc.
Road safety
Refer to the laws and regulations
on the use of mobile phones in the
area when you drive.
Do not use a hand-held phone
while driving.
Use a hands-free kit, if available.
Guidelines for safe and effi cient use
11
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.
If your vehicle is equipped
with an airbag, ensure it is not
obstructed by your mobile device
or accessories. It may fail or cause
a serious injury if obstructed when
deployed.
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
important 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 when you use it.
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.
12
LG GC900 | User Guide
Blasting area
Do not use the phone where
blasting is in progress. Observe
restrictions, and follow any
regulations or rules.
Potentially explosive
atmospheres
Do not use the phone at a
refueling point.
Do not use near fuel or chemicals.
Do not transport or store
flammable gas, liquid, or explosives
in the same compartment of your
vehicle as your mobile phone and
accessories.
In aircraft
Wireless devices can cause
interference in aircraft.
Turn your mobile phone off or
activate flight mode before
boarding any aircraft.
Do not use it on the ground
without permission from the crew.
Children
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
Emergency calls may not be
available under all mobile networks.
Therefore, you should never depend
solely on the phone for emergency
calls. Check with your local service
provider.
Battery information and care

discharge the battery before
recharging. Unlike other battery
systems, there is no memory
effect that could compromise the
batterys performance.
Guidelines for safe and effi cient use
13
Use only LG batteries and chargers.
LG chargers are designed to
maximize the battery life.
Do not disassemble or short-circuit
the battery pack.
Keep the metal contacts of the
battery pack clean.
Replace the battery when it
no longer provides acceptable
performance. The battery pack
may be recharged hundreds of
times before it will need replacing.
Recharge the battery if it has
not been used for a long time to
maximize usability.
Do not expose the battery charger
to direct sunlight or use it in high
humidity, such as in the bathroom.
Do not leave the battery in hot or
cold places, this may deteriorate
the battery performance.
There is risk of explosion if the
battery is replaced by an incorrect
type.
Dispose of used batteries
according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. Please recycle when
possible. Do not dispose as
household waste.
If you need to replace the battery,
take it to the nearest authorized LG
Electronics service point or dealer
for assistance.
Always unplug the charger from
the wall socket after the phone is
fully charged to save unnecessary
power consumption of the charger.
Actual battery life will depend on
network configuration, product
settings, usage patterns, battery
and environmental conditions.

Driver Safety Tips
When driving 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:
Use a hands free device. If
possible, add an additional layer
of convenience and safety to
your wireless phone with one of
the many hands free accessories
available today.
Let the person you are speaking
with know you are driving; if
necessary, suspend the call in
heavy traffic or hazardous weather
conditions.
b Use your wireless phone to call
emergency services for yourself
or others.
In the case of fire, traffic accident
or medical emergencies;
• Australia: Dial 0-0-0,
• New Zealand: Dial 1-1-1,
• International: Dial 1-1-2,
• other local emergency number.
b Use your wireless phone to help
others in emergencies, if you see
an accident in progress or other
serious emergency where lives
are in danger, call the emergency
number, as you would want others
to do for you.
Do not take notes or look up
phone numbers while driving.
Jotting down a “to do list or
flipping through your address
book takes attention away from
your primary responsibility, driving
safely.
Guidelines for safe and effi cient use
15
If possible, place calls when you
are not moving or before pulling
into traffic. Try to plan calls when
you will not be driving.
Do not engage in stressful or
emotional conversations that may
be distracting. Make people you
are talking with aware you are
driving and suspend conversations
that have the potential to divert
your attention from the road.
