A voluntary recall was announced by LG Electronics Canada Inc., on the LG 150. It seems that the LG 150 mobile phone is no longer certified as meeting the Radio Standards Specifications 102 (RSS 102), Radio Frequency Exposure Compliance of Radiocommunication Apparatus and has thus becomes a primary concern for the health of people carrying this phone.

Health Canada is of the opinion that the past and current use of the LG 150 should not pose immediate or long-term health concerns.

Here is the official announcement made by LG Electronics Canada Inc.:

“LG has mobilized quickly in response to these findings on behalf of our customers,” says Mr. William Cho, president and CEO of LG Electronics Canada. “LG’s preliminary testing indicates that only LG 150 phones from specific production runs may be affected by this issue. LG is therefore recommending that all LG 150 phones manufactured within such production runs be returned in accordance with the guidelines set out below. LG is continuing to test the LG 150 phones. However, because customer satisfaction and safety continue to be our primary commitment, we are taking a proactive approach and working in cooperation with our carriers to recall all LG 150 phones in Canada.”
