http://www.lg.com/common/index.jsp ---->
select country.
This Feature allows you to update the firmware
of your phone to the latest version conveniently
from the internet without the need to visit a
service centre.
22
As the mobile phone firmware update requires
the user’s full attention for the duration of the
update process, please make sure to check all
instructions and notes that appear at each step
before proceeding. Please note that removing
the USB data cable or battery during the
upgrade may seriously damage your mobile
phone.
Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Please read these simple guidelines. Not following
these guidelines may be dangerous or illegal.
Should a fault occur, a software tool is built into your
device that will gather a fault log.
This tool gathers only data specific to the fault, such
as signal strength, cell ID position in sudden call
drop and applications loaded. The log is used only to
help determine the cause of the fault. These logs are
encrypted and can only be accessed by an authorized
LG Repair centre should you need to return your
device for repair.
Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption
Rate (SAR) information. This mobile phone
model LG-B525 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.
23
• This device meets RF exposure guidelines
when used either in the normal use position
against the ear or when positioned at least
1.5 cm away from the body. When a carry
case, belt clip or holder is used for body-worn
operation, it should not contain metal and
should position the product at least 1.5 cm
away from your body. In order to transmit
data files or messages, this device requires
a quality connection to the network. In some
cases, transmission of data files or messages
may be delayed until such a connection
is available. Ensure the above separation
distance instructions are followed until the
transmission is completed.
24
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 discretion,
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.
• 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 to 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 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.
• 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 magnetic strips.
• Do not tap the screen with a sharp object as
it may damage the phone.
• Do not expose the phone to liquid or
moisture.
• Use the accessories like earphones cautiously.
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily.
25
• Do not use, touch or attempt to remove or fix
broken, chipped or cracked glass. Damage to
the glass display due to abuse or misuse is
not covered under the warranty.
• Your phone is an electronic device that
generates heat during normal operation.
Extremely prolonged, direct skin contact in
the absence of adequate ventilation may
result in discomfort or minor burns. Therefore,
use care when handling your phone during or
immediately after operation.
Efficient phone operation
Electronic devices
All mobile phones may receive interference,
which could affect performance.
• Do not use your mobile phone near medical
equipment without requesting permission.
26
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 TVs, radios,
PCs, etc.
• Use your phone in temperatures between 0ºC and
40ºC, if possible. Exposing your phone to extremely
low or high temperatures may result in damage,
malfunction, or even explosion.
Road safety
Check 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.
• Give full attention to driving.
• Use a hands-free kit, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before making or
answering a call if driving conditions require
you to do so.
• RF energy may affect some electronic
systems in your vehicle such as car stereos
and safety equipment.
• If your vehicle is equipped with an air bag,
do not obstruct with installed or portable
wireless equipment. It can cause the air bag
to fail or cause serious injury due to improper
performance.
• 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 of particular importance
when near roads.
Avoid damage to your hearing
To prevent possible hearing damage,
do not listen at high volume levels for
long periods.
Damage to your hearing can occur if you are
exposed to loud sounds for long periods of
time. We therefore recommend that you do not
turn the handset on or off close to your ear. We
also recommend that music and call volumes
are set to a reasonable level.
• When using headphones, turn the volume
down if you cannot hear the people speaking
near you, or if the person sitting next to you
can hear what you are listening to.
Note:
Excessive sound pressure from earphones
and headphones can cause hearing loss.
27
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
authorised service provider.
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 your phone at a refuelling point.
• Do not use near fuel or chemicals.
28

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 on all
mobile networks. Therefore you should never
depend solely on your phone for emergency
calls. Check with your local service provider.
