Important Information
This user’s guide provides important information on the use
and operation of your phone. Please read all the information
carefully prior to using the phone for the best performance and
to prevent any damage to or misuse of the phone. Any
unapproved changes or modifications will void your warranty.
FCC Part 15 Class B Compliance
This device and its accessories comply with part 15 of FCC
rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
This device and its accessories may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device and its accessories must accept
any interference received, including interference that causes
undesired operation.
Industry Canada Compliance
This phone complies with Industry Canada RSS 133. This
phone complies with the Class B limits for radio noise
emissions as set out in the interference causing standard
entitled "Digital Apparatus" ICES-003 of Industry Canada.
Technical Details
The LG 6190 is an all digital phone that operates on both Code
Division Multiple Access (CDMA) frequencies: cellular services at
800 MHz and Personal Communication Services (PCS) at 1.9 GHz.
Also, the LG 6190 works on Advanced Mobile Phone Service
(AMPS). We call it a tri-mode phone. Since the phone operates
on Cellular, PCS and AMPS, the call fail rate is less than on a
conventional dual-mode or singlemode phone.
CDMA technology uses a feature called DSSS (Direct Sequence
Spread Spectrum) that enables the phone to keep
communication from being crossed and to use one frequency
channel by multiple users in the same specific area. This results
in a 10-fold capacity increase when compared with analog
mode. In addition, features such as soft / softer handoff, hard
Handoff, and dynamic RF power control technologies combine
to reduce call interruptions.

The Cellular and PCS CDMA networks consist of MSO (Mobile
Switching Office), BSC (Base Station Controller), BTS (Base
station Transmission System), and MS (Mobile Station). The
following table lists some major CDMA standards.
* TSB -74: Protocol between an IS-95A system and ANSI J-STD-008
1xRTT system receives twice as many subscribers in the wireless
section as IS-95. Its battery life is twice as long as IS-95. High-speed
data transmission is also possible.

FCC RF Exposure Information
WARNING! Read this information before operating the phone.
In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) of the United States, with its action in Report and Order
FCC 96-326, adopted an updated safety standard for human
exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy
emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are
consistent with the safety standard previously set by U.S.,
Canadian and international standards bodies.
The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and
these international standards.
Bodily Contact During Operation
This device was tested for typical use with the back of the
phone kept 3/4 inches (2 cm) from the body. To comply with IC
and FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation
distance of 3/4 inches (2 cm) must be maintained between the
user’s body and the back of the phone, including the antenna,
whether extended or retracted. Third-party belt-clips, holsters,
and similar accessories containing metallic components should
not be used. Avoid the use of accessories that cannot maintain
3/4 inches (2 cm) distance between the user’s body and the
back of the phone and have not been tested for compliance
with IC and FCC RF exposure limits.
LG6190-(E).QXD 11/9/04 4:19 PM Page 10

LG 6190
Vehicle-Mounted External Antenna
(Optional, if available.)
A minimum distance of 8 inches (20 cm) must be maintained
between the user / bystander and the vehicle-mounted external
antenna to satisfy IC and FCC RF exposure requirements. For
more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov.
Caution
Use only the supplied and approved antenna. Use of
unauthorized antennas or modifications could impair call
quality, damage the phone, void your warranty and/or result in
violation of FCC regulations.
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with the skin a minor burn may
result. Contact your local dealer for a replacement antenna.
