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.

Guidelines for safe and efﬁcient use

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.

Guidelines for safe and efﬁcient use

Efficient phone operation

Electronics devices

All mobile phones may receive 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 TVs, radios, PCs etc.

• Use your phone in temperatures between 0 ºC and 40 ºC, if possible. Exposing your

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 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.

• 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.

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 it. 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.

contact with the battery. This could cause a fire.

Guidelines for safe and efﬁcient use

Driver Safety Tips

Your mobile telephone gives you the powerful ability to communicate almost anywhere, anytime. But an important responsibility accompanies the benefits of mobile phones, one that every user must uphold. When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. When using your mobile phone behind the wheel of a car, practice good common sense and remember the following tips:

• Use a hands free device to add an additional layer of convenience and safety to your

wireless phone with one of the many hands free accessories available today.

• Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the

call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.

• Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Typing up a “to do”

list or flipping through your address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility of driving safely.

• Place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls

when you will not be driving.

• Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting.

• Use your mobile phone to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto accident,

crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call the emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.

• If you see a broken down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal,

a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance, local traffic authority or police station.

Touch screen tips

Here are some tips on how to navigate on your phone. Tap or touch – A single finger tap selects items, links, shortcuts and letters on the on-screen keyboard. Touch and hold – Touch and hold an item on the screen by tapping it and not lifting your finger until an action occurs. For example, to open a contact's available options, touch and hold the contact in the Contacts list until the context menu opens. Drag – Touch and hold an item for a moment and then, without lifting your finger, move your finger on the screen until you reach the target position. You can drag items on the Home screen to reposition them. Swipe or slide – To swipe or slide, quickly move your finger across the surface of the screen, without pausing when you first tap it (so you don’t drag an item instead). For example, you can slide the screen up or down to scroll through a list, or browse through the different Home screens by swiping from left to right (and vice versa). Double-tap – Double-tap to zoom on a webpage or a map. For example, quickly double-tap a section of a webpage to adjust that section to fit the width of the screen. You can also double-tap to zoom in and out while viewing the picture. Pinch-to-Zoom – Use your index finger and thumb in a pinching or spreading motion to zoom in or out when using the browser or Maps, or when browsing pictures. Rotate the screen – From many applications and menus, the orientation of the screen adjusts to the device's physical orientation.

NOTE:

• To select an item, tap the center of the icon.
