Technical Details

The LG COSMOS™ 2 is an alldigital phone that operates onboth Code Division MultipleAccess (CDMA) frequencies:Cellular services at 800 MHz andPersonal Communication Services(PCS) at 1.9 GHz.

CDMA technology uses a featurecalled DSSS (Direct SequenceSpread Spectrum) that enables the

phone to keep communicationfrom being crossed and to use onefrequency channel by multipleusers in the same specific area.This results in a 10-fold capacityincrease when compared withanalog mode. In addition, featuressuch as soft / softer handoff, hardhandoff, and dynamic RF powercontrol technologies combine toreduce call interruptions.

The Cellular and PCS CDMAnetworks consist of MSO (MobileSwitching Office), BSC (BaseStation Controller), BTS (BaseStation Transmission System), andMS (Mobile Station).

* TSB -74: Protocol between an IS-95A system and ANSI J-STD-008

1xRTT system receives twice asmany subscribers in the wirelesssection as IS-95. Its battery life istwice as long as IS-95. High-speeddata transmission is also possible.

Safety

TIA Safety InformationThe following is the complete TIASafety Information for wirelesshandheld phones.

Exposure to Radio FrequencySignal

Your wireless handheld portablephone is a low power radiotransmitter and receiver. When ON,it receives and sends out RadioFrequency (RF) signals.

In August, 1996, the FederalCommunications Commissions(FCC) adopted RF exposureguidelines with safety levels forhandheld wireless phones. Thoseguidelines are consistent with thesafety standards previously set byboth U.S. and internationalstandards bodies:

ANSI C95.1 (1992) *

NCRP Report 86 (1986)

ICNIRP (1996)

* American National StandardsInstitute; National Council onRadiation Protection andMeasurements; InternationalCommission on Non-Ionizing

Radiation Protection

Those standards were based oncomprehensive and periodicevaluations of the relevantscientific literature. For example,over 120 scientists, engineers, andphysicians from universities,government health agencies, andindustry reviewed the availablebody of research to develop theANSI Standard (C95.1).

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

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or anapproved replacement antenna.Unauthorized antennas,modifications, or attachmentscould damage the phone and mayviolate FCC regulations.

Phone Operation

NORMAL POSITION: Hold thephone as you would any othertelephone with the antennapointed up and over your shoulder.

LG COSMOS™ 2 105

Tips on Efficient Operation

For your phone to operate mostefficiently:

Don’t touch the antennaunnecessarily when the phone is inuse. Contact with the antennaaffects call quality and may causethe phone to operate at a higherpower level than otherwise needed.

Driving

Check the laws and regulations onthe use of wireless phones in theareas where you drive and alwaysobey them. Also, if using yourphone while driving, please observethe following:

l Give full attention to driving --driving safely is your firstresponsibility;

l Use hands-free operation, ifavailable;

l Pull off the road and park beforemaking or answering a call ifdriving conditions or the lawrequire it.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment

is shielded from RF signals.However, certain electronicequipment may not be shieldedagainst the RF signals from yourwireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry ManufacturersAssociation recommends that aminimum separation of six (6)inches be maintained between ahandheld wireless phone and apacemaker to avoid potentialinterference with the pacemaker.These recommendations areconsistent with the independentresearch by and recommendationsof Wireless Technology Research.Persons with pacemakers:l Should ALWAYS keep the phone

more than six (6) inches fromtheir pacemaker when thephone is turned ON;

l Should not carry the phone in abreast pocket;

l Should use the ear opposite thepacemaker to minimize thepotential for interference;

l Should turn the phone OFF

106 LG COSMOS™ 2

Safety

immediately if there is anyreason to suspect thatinterference is taking place.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones mayinterfere with some hearing aids. Inthe event of such interference, youmay want to consult your serviceprovider (or call the customerservice line to discuss alternatives).

Other Medical Devices andHealth Care Facilities

If you use any other personalmedical device, consult themanufacturer of your device todetermine if it is adequatelyshielded from the external RFenergy. Your physician may be ableto assist you in obtaining thisinformation.

Turn your phone OFF in healthcare facilities when any regulationsposted in these areas instruct youto do so. Hospitals or health carefacilities may use equipment thatcould be sensitive to the externalRF energy.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperlyinstalled or inadequately shieldedelectronic systems in motorvehicles. Check with themanufacturer or its representativeregarding your vehicle. You shouldalso consult the manufacturer ofany equipment that has beenadded to your vehicle.

Aircraft

FCC regulations prohibit usingyour phone while in the air. SwitchOFF your phone before boardingan aircraft.

Blasting Areas

To avoid interfering with blastingoperations, turn your phone OFFwhen in a “blasting area” or inareas posted: “Turn off two-wayradio”. Obey all signs andinstructions.

Potentially Explosive Atmosphere

Turn your phone OFF when in anyarea with a potentially explosiveatmosphere and obey all signs andinstructions. Sparks in such areas

LG COSMOS™ 2 107

could cause an explosion or fireresulting in bodily injury or evendeath.

Areas with a potentially explosiveatmosphere are often, but notalways marked clearly. Potentialareas may include: fueling areas(such as gasoline stations); belowdeck on boats; fuel or chemicaltransfer or storage facilities;vehicles using liquefied petroleumgas (such as propane or butane);areas where the air containschemicals or particles (such asgrain, dust, or metal powders); andany other area where you wouldnormally be advised to turn offyour vehicle engine.

For Vehicles Equipped with an AirBag

An air bag inflates with great force.DO NOT place objects, includingeither installed or portable wirelessequipment, in the area over the airbag or in the air bag deploymentarea. If in-vehicle wirelessequipment is improperly installedand the air bag inflates, seriousinjury could result.

l When you use the phone inpublic places, set the ringtoneto vibration so you don't disturbothers.

l Do not turn your phone on oroff when putting it to your ear.

l Use accessories, such asearphones and headsets, withcaution. Ensure that cables aretucked away safely and do nottouch the antenna unnecessarily.

Caution: Avoid potential hearingloss.Prolonged exposure to loud sounds(including music) is the mostcommon cause of preventablehearing loss. Some scientificresearch suggests that usingportable audio devices, such asportable music players and cellulartelephones, at high volume settingsfor long durations may lead topermanent noise induced hearingloss. This includes the use of

headphones (including headsets,earbuds and Bluetooth® or otherwireless devices). Exposure to veryloud sound has also beenassociated in some studies withtinnitus (a ringing in the ear),hypersensitivity to sound anddistorted hearing. Individualsusceptibility to noise-inducedhearing loss and other potentialhearing problems varies.The amount of sound produced bya portable audio device variesdepending on the nature of thesound, the device, the devicesettings and the headphones. Youshould follow some commonsenserecommendations when using anyportable audio device:l Set the volume in a quiet

environment and select thelowest volume at which you canhear adequately.

l When using headphones, turnthe volume down if you cannothear the people speaking nearyou or if the person sitting nextto you can hear what you arelistening to.

l Do not turn the volume up toblock out noisy surroundings. Ifyou choose to listen to your

LG COSMOS™ 2 113

portable device in a noisyenvironment, use noise-cancelling headphones to blockout background environmentalnoise.

l Limit the amount of time youlisten. As the volume increases,less time is required before yourhearing could be affected.

l Avoid using headphones afterexposure to extremely loudnoises, such as rock concerts,that might cause temporaryhearing loss. Temporary hearingloss might cause unsafe volumesto sound normal.

l Do not listen at any volume thatcauses you discomfort. If youexperience ringing in your ears,hear muffled speech orexperience any temporaryhearing difficulty after listeningto your portable audio device,discontinue use and consultyour doctor.

FDA Consumer UpdateThe U.S. Food andDrug Administration’sCenter for Devices and

Radiological Health ConsumerUpdate on Mobile Phones:

1. Do wireless phones pose ahealth hazard?

The available scientific evidencedoes not show that any healthproblems are associated with usingwireless phones. There is no proof,however, that wireless phones areabsolutely safe. Wireless phonesemit low levels of Radio Frequency(RF) energy in the microwave rangewhile being used. They also emitvery low levels of RF when instandby mode. Whereas high levelsof RF can produce health effects(by heating tissue), exposure tolow level RF that does not produceheating effects causes no knownadverse health effects. Manystudies of low level RF exposureshave not found any biologicaleffects. Some studies have

suggested that some biologicaleffects may occur, but suchfindings have not been confirmedby additional research. In somecases, other researchers have haddifficulty in reproducing thosestudies, or in determining thereasons for inconsistent results.

2. What is the FDA's roleconcerning the safety of wirelessphones?

Under the law, the FDA does notreview the safety of radiation-emitting consumer products suchas wireless phones before they canbe sold, as it does with new drugsor medical devices. However, theagency has authority to take actionif wireless phones are shown toemit Radio Frequency (RF) energyat a level that is hazardous to theuser. In such a case, the FDA couldrequire the manufacturers ofwireless phones to notify users ofthe health hazard and to repair,replace, or recall the phones sothat the hazard no longer exists.

Although the existing scientificdata does not justify FDAregulatory actions, the FDA hasurged the wireless phone industryto take a number of steps,

LG COSMOS™ 2 115

including the following:

l Support needed research intopossible biological effects of RFof the type emitted by wirelessphones;

l Design wireless phones in a waythat minimizes any RF exposureto the user that is not necessaryfor device function; and

l Cooperate in providing users ofwireless phones with the bestpossible information on possibleeffects of wireless phone use onhuman health.

The FDA belongs to an interagencyworking group of the federalagencies that have responsibilityfor different aspects of RF safety toensure coordinated efforts at thefederal level. The followingagencies belong to this workinggroup:

l National Institute forOccupational Safety and Health

l Environmental ProtectionAgency

l Occupational Safety and HealthAdministration

l National Telecommunicationsand Information Administration

The National Institutes of Healthparticipates in some interagencyworking group activities, as well.The FDA shares regulatoryresponsibilities for wireless phoneswith the Federal CommunicationsCommission (FCC). All phones thatare sold in the United States mustcomply with FCC safety guidelinesthat limit RF exposure. The FCCrelies on the FDA and other healthagencies for safety questionsabout wireless phones.The FCC also regulates the basestations that the wireless phonenetworks rely upon. While thesebase stations operate at higherpower than do the wireless phonesthemselves, the RF exposures thatpeople get from these basestations are typically thousands oftimes lower than those they canget from wireless phones. Basestations are thus not the subject ofthe safety questions discussed inthis document.

3. What kinds of phones are thesubject of this update?

The term “wireless phone” refers

116 LG COSMOS™ 2

Safety

here to handheld wireless phoneswith built-in antennas, often called“cell”, “mobile”, or “PCS” phones.These types of wireless phones canexpose the user to measurableRadio Frequency (RF) energybecause of the short distancebetween the phone and the user’shead. These RF exposures are limited byFCC safety guidelines that weredeveloped with the advice of theFDA and other federal health andsafety agencies. When the phone islocated at greater distances fromthe user, the exposure to RF isdrastically lower because aperson's RF exposure decreasesrapidly with increasing distancefrom the source. The so-called“cordless phones,” which have abase unit connected to thetelephone wiring in a house,typically operate at far lower powerlevels, and thus produce RFexposures far below the FCC safetylimits.

4. What are the results of theresearch done already?

The research done thus far hasproduced conflicting results, andmany studies have suffered from

flaws in their research methods.Animal experiments investigatingthe effects of Radio Frequency(RF) energy exposurescharacteristic of wireless phoneshave yielded conflicting results thatoften cannot be repeated in otherlaboratories. A few animal studies,however, have suggested that lowlevels of RF could accelerate thedevelopment of cancer inlaboratory animals. However, manyof the studies that showedincreased tumor development usedanimals that had been geneticallyengineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to develop cancer in theabsence of RF exposure. Otherstudies exposed the animals to RFfor up to 22 hours per day. Theseconditions are not similar to theconditions under which people usewireless phones, so we do notknow with certainty what theresults of such studies mean forhuman health. Three largeepidemiology studies have beenpublished since December 2000.Between them, the studiesinvestigated any possibleassociation between the use ofwireless phones and primary braincancer, glioma, meningioma, or

LG COSMOS™ 2 117

acoustic neuroma, tumors of thebrain or salivary gland, leukemia, orother cancers. None of the studiesdemonstrated the existence of anyharmful health effects from wirelessphone RF exposures. However,none of the studies can answerquestions about long-termexposures, since the average periodof phone use in these studies wasaround three years.

5. What research is needed todecide whether RF exposure fromwireless phones poses a healthrisk?

A combination of laboratorystudies and epidemiological studiesof people actually using wirelessphones would provide some of thedata that are needed. Lifetimeanimal exposure studies could becompleted in a few years. However,very large numbers of animalswould be needed to providereliable proof of a cancerpromoting effect, if one exists.Epidemiological studies canprovide data that is directlyapplicable to human populations,but ten or more years follow-upmay be needed to provide answersabout some health effects, such ascancer. This is because the interval

between the time of exposure to acancer-causing agent and the timetumors develop — if they do —may be many, many years. Theinterpretation of epidemiologicalstudies is hampered by difficultiesin measuring actual RF exposureduring day-to-day use of wirelessphones. Many factors affect thismeasurement, such as the angle atwhich the phone is held, or whichmodel of phone is used.

6. What is the FDA doing to findout more about the possiblehealth effects of wireless phoneRF?

The FDA is working with the U.S.National Toxicology Program andwith groups of investigators aroundthe world to ensure that highpriority animal studies areconducted to address importantquestions about the effects ofexposure to Radio Frequency (RF)energy. The FDA has been a leadingparticipant in the World HealthOrganization International ElectroMagnetic Fields (EMF) Projectsince its inception in 1996. Aninfluential result of this work hasbeen the development of a

118 LG COSMOS™ 2

Safety

detailed agenda of research needsthat has driven the establishmentof new research programs aroundthe world. The project has alsohelped develop a series of publicinformation documents on EMFissues. The FDA and the CellularTelecommunications & InternetAssociation (CTIA) have a formalCooperative Research AndDevelopment Agreement (CRADA)to do research on wireless phonesafety. The FDA provides thescientific oversight, obtaining inputfrom experts in government,industry, and academicorganizations. CTIA-fundedresearch is conducted throughcontracts with independentinvestigators. The initial researchwill include both laboratory studiesand studies of wireless phoneusers. The CRADA will also includea broad assessment of additionalresearch needs in the context ofthe latest research developmentsaround the world.

7. How can I find out how muchRadio Frequency energy exposureI can get by using my wirelessphone?

All phones sold in the UnitedStates must comply with FederalCommunications Commission(FCC) guidelines that limit RadioFrequency (RF) energy exposures.The FCC established theseguidelines in consultation with theFDA and the other federal healthand safety agencies. The FCC limitfor RF exposure from wirelessphones is set at a SpecificAbsorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). TheFCC limit is consistent with thesafety standards developed by theInstitute of Electrical andElectronic Engineering (IEEE) andthe National Council on RadiationProtection and Measurement. Theexposure limit takes intoconsideration the body’s ability toremove heat from the tissues thatabsorb energy from the wirelessphone and is set well below levelsknown to have effects.Manufacturers of wireless phonesmust report the RF exposure levelfor each model of phone to theFCC. The FCC websitehttp://www.fda.gov (under “c” inthe subject index, select CellPhones > Research) gives directionsfor locating the FCC identificationnumber on your phone so you can

LG COSMOS™ 2 119

find your phone’s RF exposure levelin the online listing.

8. What has the FDA done tomeasure the Radio Frequencyenergy coming from wirelessphones?

The Institute of Electrical andElectronic Engineers (IEEE) isdeveloping a technical standard formeasuring the Radio Frequency(RF) energy exposure from wirelessphones and other wirelesshandsets with the participationand leadership of FDA scientistsand engineers. The standard,“Recommended Practice forDetermining the Spatial-PeakSpecific Absorption Rate (SAR) inthe Human Body Due to WirelessCommunications Devices:Experimental Techniques”, setsforth the first consistent testmethodology for measuring therate at which RF is deposited in theheads of wireless phone users. Thetest method uses a tissue-simulating model of the humanhead. Standardized SAR testmethodology is expected to greatlyimprove the consistency ofmeasurements made at differentlaboratories on the same phone.SAR is the measurement of the

amount of energy absorbed intissue, either by the whole body ora small part of the body. It ismeasured in watts/kg (ormilliwatts/g) of matter. Thismeasurement is used to determinewhether a wireless phone complieswith safety guidelines.

9. What steps can I take toreduce my exposure to RadioFrequency energy from mywireless phone?

If there is a risk from theseproducts — and at this point wedo not know that there is — it isprobably very small. But if you areconcerned about avoiding evenpotential risks, you can take a fewsimple steps to minimize yourexposure to Radio Frequency (RF)energy. Since time is a key factor inhow much exposure a personreceives, reducing the amount oftime spent using a wireless phonewill reduce RF exposure. If youmust conduct extendedconversations by wireless phoneevery day, you could place moredistance between your body andthe source of the RF, since theexposure level drops offdramatically with distance. Forexample, you could use a headset

120 LG COSMOS™ 2

Safety

and carry the wireless phone awayfrom your body or use a wirelessphone connected to a remoteantenna. Again, the scientific datadoes not demonstrate that wirelessphones are harmful. But if you areconcerned about the RF exposurefrom these products, you can usemeasures like those describedabove to reduce your RF exposurefrom wireless phone use.

10. What about children usingwireless phones?

The scientific evidence does notshow a danger to users of wirelessphones, including children andteenagers. If you want to take stepsto lower exposure to RadioFrequency (RF) energy, themeasures described above wouldapply to children and teenagersusing wireless phones. Reducingthe time of wireless phone use andincreasing the distance betweenthe user and the RF source willreduce RF exposure.

Some groups sponsored by othernational governments have advisedthat children be discouraged fromusing wireless phones at all. Forexample, the government in theUnited Kingdom distributed

leaflets containing such arecommendation in December2000. They noted that noevidence exists that using awireless phone causes brain tumorsor other ill effects. Theirrecommendation to limit wirelessphone use by children was strictlyprecautionary; it was not based onscientific evidence that any healthhazard exists.

11. What about wireless phoneinterference with medicalequipment?

Radio Frequency (RF) energy fromwireless phones can interact withsome electronic devices. For thisreason, the FDA helped develop adetailed test method to measureElectro Magnetic Interference(EMI) of implanted cardiacpacemakers and defibrillators fromwireless telephones. This testmethod is now part of a standardsponsored by the Association forthe Advancement of MedicalInstrumentation (AAMI). The finaldraft, a joint effort by the FDA,medical device manufacturers, andmany other groups, was completedin late 2000. This standard willallow manufacturers to ensure that

LG COSMOS™ 2 121

cardiac pacemakers anddefibrillators are safe from wirelessphone EMI.The FDA has tested hearing aidsfor interference from handheldwireless phones and helpeddevelop a voluntary standardsponsored by the Institute ofElectrical and Electronic Engineers(IEEE). This standard specifies testmethods and performancerequirements for hearing aids andwireless phones so that nointerference occurs when a personuses a “compatible” phone and a“compatible” hearing aid at thesame time. This standard wasapproved by the IEEE in 2000. The FDA continues to monitor theuse of wireless phones for possibleinteractions with other medicaldevices. Should harmfulinterference be found to occur, theFDA will conduct testing to assessthe interference and work toresolve the problem.

10 Driver Safety TipsYour wireless phone gives you thepowerful ability to communicate byvoice almost anywhere, anytime. Animportant responsibilityaccompanies the benefits ofwireless phones, one that everyuser must uphold.When operating a car, driving is

122 LG COSMOS™ 2

Safety

your first responsibility. Whenusing your wireless phone behindthe wheel of a car, practice goodcommon sense and remember thefollowing tips:1. Get to know your wireless

phone and its features such asspeed dial and redial. Carefullyread your instruction manualand learn to take advantage ofvaluable features most phonesoffer, including automatic redialand memory. Also, work tomemorize the phone keypad soyou can use the speed dialfunction without taking yourattention off the road.

2. When available, use a hands-freedevice. A number of hands-freewireless phone accessories arereadily available today. Whetheryou choose an installedmounted device for yourwireless phone or a speakerphone accessory, takeadvantage of these devices ifavailable to you.

3. Make sure you place yourwireless phone within easy reachand where you can reach itwithout removing your eyesfrom the road. If you get anincoming call at an inconvenient

time, if possible, let yourVoicemail answer it for you.

4. Suspend conversations duringhazardous driving conditions orsituations. Let the person youare speaking with know you aredriving; if necessary, suspendthe call in heavy traffic orhazardous weather conditions.Rain, sleet, snow, and ice can behazardous, but so is heavytraffic. As a driver, your firstresponsibility is to pay attentionto the road.

5. Don’t take notes or look upphone numbers while driving. Ifyou are reading an address bookor business card, or writing a“to-do” list while driving a car,you are not watching where youare going. It is common sense.Do not get caught in adangerous situation becauseyou are reading or writing andnot paying attention to the roador nearby vehicles.

6. Dial sensibly and assess thetraffic; if possible, place callswhen you are not moving orbefore pulling into traffic. Try toplan your calls before you beginyour trip or attempt to coincideyour calls with times you may be

LG COSMOS™ 2 123

stopped at a stop sign, red light,or otherwise stationary. But ifyou need to dial while driving,follow this simple tip -- dial onlya few numbers, check the roadand your mirrors, then continue.

7. Do not engage in stressful oremotional conversations thatmay be distracting. Stressful oremotional conversations anddriving do not mix; they aredistracting and even dangerouswhen you are behind the wheelof a car. Make people you aretalking with aware you aredriving and if necessary, suspendconversations which have thepotential to divert yourattention from the road.

8. Use your wireless phone to callfor help. Your wireless phone isone of the greatest tools youcan own to protect yourself andyour family in dangeroussituations -- with your phone atyour side, help is only threenumbers away. Dial 911 or otherlocal emergency number in thecase of fire, traffic accident, roadhazard, or medical emergency.Remember, it’s a free call onyour wireless phone!

9. Use your wireless phone to help

others in emergencies. Yourwireless phone provides you aperfect opportunity to be a“Good Samaritan” in yourcommunity. If you see an autoaccident, crime in progress orother serious emergency wherelives are in danger, call 911 orother local emergency number,as you would want others to dofor you.

10. Call roadside assistance or aspecial wireless non-emergencyassistance number whennecessary. Certain situationsyou encounter while driving mayrequire attention, but are noturgent enough to merit a call foremergency services. But you canstill use your wireless phone tolend a hand. If you see abroken-down vehicle posing noserious hazard, a broken trafficsignal, a minor traffic accidentwhere no one appears injured ora vehicle you know to be stolen,call roadside assistance or otherspecial non-emergency wirelessnumber.The above tips are meant asgeneral guidelines. Beforedeciding to use your mobiledevice while operating a vehicle,

124 LG COSMOS™ 2

it is recommended that youconsult your applicablejurisdiction’s local laws or otherregulations regarding such use.Such laws or other regulationsmay prohibit or otherwiserestrict the manner in which adriver may use his or her phonewhile operating a vehicle.

Consumer Information onSAR(Specific Absorption Rate)

This Model Phone Meets theGovernment’s Requirements forExposure to Radio Waves. Yourwireless phone is a radiotransmitter and receiver. It isdesigned and manufactured not toexceed the emission limits forexposure to radiofrequency (RF)energy set by the FederalCommunications Commission(FCC) of the U.S. Government.These FCC exposure limits arederived from the recommendationsof two expert organizations, theNational Counsel on RadiationProtection and Measurement(NCRP) and the Institute ofElectrical and Electronics Engineers(IEEE). In both cases, the

recommendations were developedby scientific and engineeringexperts drawn from industry,government, and academia afterextensive reviews of the scientificliterature related to the biologicaleffects of RF energy.

The exposure Limit for wirelessmobile phones employs a unit ofmeasurement known as the SpecificAbsorption Rate, or SAR. The SARis a measure of the rate ofabsorption of RF energy by thehuman body expressed in units ofwatts per kilogram (W/kg). TheFCC requires wireless phones tocomply with a safety limit of 1.6watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). TheFCC exposure limit incorporates asubstantial margin of safety to giveadditional protection to the publicand to account for any variationsin measurements.

Tests for SAR are conducted usingstandard operating positionsspecified by the FCC with thephone transmitting at its highestcertified power level in all testedfrequency bands. Although SAR isdetermined at the highest certifiedpower level, the actual SAR level of

LG COSMOS™ 2 125

the phone while operating can bewell below the maximum value.Because the phone is designed tooperate at multiple power levels touse only the power required toreach the network, in general, thecloser you are to a wireless basestation antenna, the lower thepower output.

Before a phone model is availablefor sale to the public, it must betested and certified to the FCCthat it does not exceed the limitestablished by the government-adopted requirement for safeexposure. The tests are performedin positions and locations (e.g., atthe ear and worn on the body) asrequired by the FCC for eachmodel.

This device was tested for typicalbody-worn operations with theback of the phone kept 0.79inches (2.0 cm) between the user’sbody and the back of the phone.To comply with FCC RF exposurerequirements, a minimumseparation distance of 0.79 inches(2.0 cm) must be maintainedbetween the user s body and theback of the phone. Third-party

belt-clips, holsters, and similaraccessories containing metalliccomponents should not be used.Body-worn accessories that cannotmaintain 0.79 inches (2.0 cm)separation distance between theuser's body and the back of thephone, and have not been testedfor typical body-worn operationsmay not comply with FCC RFexposure limits and should beavoided.

The FCC has granted anEquipment Authorization for thismodel phone with all reported SARlevels evaluated as in compliancewith the FCC RF emissionguidelines.

The highest SAR value for thismodel phone when tested for useat the ear is 1.25 W/kg and whenworn on the body, as described inthis user’s manual, is 0.60 W/kg.While there may be differencesbetween SAR levels of variousphones and at various positions,they all meet the governmentrequirement for safe exposure.

SAR information on this modelphone is on file with the FCC andcan be found under the Display

126 LG COSMOS™ 2

Grant section ofhttp://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/after searching on FCC ID.

To find information that pertains toa particular model phone, this siteuses the phone FCC ID numberwhich is usually printed somewhereon the case of the phone.Sometimes it may be necessary toremove the battery pack to find thenumber. Once you have the FCC IDnumber for a particular phone,follow the instructions on thewebsite and it should providevalues for typical or maximum SARfor a particular phone.

Additional information on SpecificAbsorption Rates (SAR) can befound on the CellularTelecommunications IndustryAssociation (CTIA) website athttp://www.ctia.org/

*In the United States and Canada,the SAR limit for mobile phonesused by the public is 1.6 watts/kg(W/kg) averaged over one gram oftissue. The standard incorporates asubstantial margin of safety to giveadditional protection for the publicand to account for any variationsin measurements.

FCC Hearing-AidCompatibility (HAC)Regulations for WirelessDevicesOn July 10, 2003, the U.S. FederalCommunications Commission(FCC) Report and Order in WTDocket 01-309 modified theexception of wireless phones underthe Hearing Aid Compatibility Actof 1988 (HAC Act) to requiredigital wireless phones becompatible with hearing-aids. Theintent of the HAC Act is to ensurereasonable access totelecommunications services forpersons with hearing disabilities.While some wireless phones areused near some hearing devices(hearing aids and cochlearimplants), users may detect abuzzing, humming, or whiningnoise. Some hearing devices aremore immune than others to thisinterference noise, and phones alsovary in the amount of interferencethey generate.The wireless telephone industryhas developed a rating system forwireless phones, to assist hearingdevice users to find phones thatmay be compatible with their

LG COSMOS™ 2 127

hearing devices. Not all phoneshave been rated. Phones that arerated have the rating on their boxor a label located on the box.The ratings are not guarantees.Results will vary depending on theuser's hearing device and hearingloss. If your hearing devicehappens to be vulnerable tointerference, you may not be ableto use a rated phone successfully.Trying out the phone with yourhearing device is the best way toevaluate it for your personal needs.M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 orM4 meet FCC requirements andare likely to generate lessinterference to hearing devicesthan phones that are not labeled.M4 is the better/higher of the tworatings.T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4meet FCC requirements and arelikely to generate less interferenceto hearing devices than phonesthat are not labeled. T4 is thebetter/higher of the two ratings.

Hearing devices may also be rated.Your hearing device manufactureror hearing health professional mayhelp you find this rating. Higherratings mean that the hearing

device is relatively immune tointerference noise. The hearing aidand wireless phone rating valuesare then added together. A sum of5 is considered acceptable fornormal use. A sum of 6 isconsidered for best use.

T3 + T2 = 5

M3 + M2 = 5

128 LG COSMOS™ 2

Safety

In the above example, if a hearingaid meets the M2 level rating andthe wireless phone meets the M3level rating, the sum of the twovalues equal M5. This shouldprovide the hearing aid user with“normal usage” while using theirhearing aid with the particularwireless phone. “Normal usage” inthis context is defined as a signalquality that’s acceptable for normaloperation.

The M mark is intended to besynonymous with the U mark. TheT mark is intended to besynonymous with the UT mark.The M and T marks arerecommended by the Alliance forTelecommunications Industries

Solutions (ATIS). The U and UTmarks are referenced in Section20.19 of the FCC Rules. The HACrating and measurement procedureare described in the AmericanNational Standards Institute(ANSI) C63.19 standard.

To ensure that the Hearing AidCompatibility rating for your phoneis maintained, secondarytransmitters such as Bluetooth andWLAN(this phone does not haveWLAN) components must bedisabled during a call. See Page 77for instructions to disable thesecomponents.
