❑ Guidelines for safe and efficient use (Continued)
Emergency calls
Emergency calls may not be available under all cellular networks. Therefore, you
should never depend solely on the phone for emergency calls. Check with your
local service provider.
Battery information and care.
› You do not need to completely discharge the battery before recharging. Unlike
other battery systems, there is no memory effect that could compromise the
battery’s performance.
› Use only LG batteries and chargers. LG chargers are designed to maximize the
battery life.
› Do not disassemble or short-circuit the battery pack.
› Replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance.
The battery pack may be recharged hundreds of times before it needs to be

❑ Guidelines for safe and efficient use (Continued)
Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information
This mobile phone model has been designed to comply with applicable safety
requirement for exposure to radio waves. This requirement is based on scientific
guidelines that include safety margins designed to ensure 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
standardized 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 ten (10) gram of tissue.
› The highest SAR value for this model phone tested by DASY4 for use at the
ear/body is [0.837/0.487] W/kg (10g).
› SAR data information for residents in countries/regions that have adopted the
SAR limit recommended by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE) is 1.6 W/kg averaged over one (1) gram of tissue.
