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 LG-C199
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 2 W/Kg averaged over
10g of tissue.
• The highest SAR value for this
model phone tested by DASY4
for use at the ear is 0.898 W/
Kg (10g).
Product care and
maintenance
WARNING: Only use
batteries, chargers and
accessories approved for
use with this particular phone
model. The use of any other
types may invalidate any
approval or warranty applying
to the phone, and may be
dangerous.
• Do not disassemble this unit. Take
it to a qualified service technician
when repair work is required.
• Repairs under warranty, at LG’s
option, may include replacement
parts or boards that are either
new or reconditioned, provided
that they have functionality
equal to that of the parts being
replaced.

• Do not handle the phone with wet
hands while it is being charged.
It may cause an electric shock
and can seriously damage your

• Do not charge the phone when it
is on soft furnishings.
• The phone should be charged in
a well ventilated area.
• Do not subject this unit to
excessive smoke or dust.
• Do not keep the phone next to
credit cards or transport tickets; it
can affect the information on the

• 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
without requesting permission.
Avoid placing the phone over
pacemakers, for example, in your
breast pocket.
• Some hearing aids might be
disturbed by mobile phones.
• Minor interference may affect

Road safety
Check the laws and regulations on
the use of mobile phones in the
area when you drive.

while driving.
• Give full attention to driving.
• Use a hands-free kit, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before

ensure that the volume is at a
reasonable level so that you are
aware of your surroundings. This
is particularly imperative when

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 close to your ear.
We also recommend that music and
call volumes are set to a reasonable
level.
Note: Excessive sound
pressure from earphones can
cause hearing loss.
