Guidelines for safe and effi cient use
Please read these simple guidelines. Not following these guidelines may be dangerous or illegal.
Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information.
This mobile device, model LG-E615, 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.
7
Guidelines for safe and effi cient use
The SAR limit recommended by the
International Commission on Non-Ionising Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) is 2 W/kg averaged over 10 g of tissue.
The highest SAR value for this model
phone tested by DASY4 for use at the ear is 0.752 W/kg (10 g) and when worn on the body is 0.531 W/Kg (10 g). which is 100% compliant with Indian Standards and Safe
This device meets RF exposure guidelines
when used either in the normal use position against the ear or when positioned
8
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. To transmit data files or messages, this device requires a high-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 transmission is complete.
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 repairs are required.
Repairs under warranty, at LG's discretion,
may include replacement parts or boards that are either new or reconditioned, provided they have the same functionality as the parts being replaced.
Keep the unit 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.
9
Guidelines for safe and effi cient use
Switch off the phone anywhere 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 charging. This may cause an electric shock and could seriously damage your phone.
Do not charge a handset near flammable
material, as the handset may get hot and create a fire hazard.
10
Use a dry cloth to clean the outside of the
unit (do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner or alcohol).
Do not charge the phone when it is lying
on soft furnishings.
The phone should be charged in a well
ventilated area.
Do not subject this unit to excess 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 any sharp
object, as this may damage the phone.
Do not expose the phone to liquid or
moisture.
Use accessories such as earphones
carefully. Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily.
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. All mobile phones may receive interference, which could affect performance.
Do not use your mobile phone near
medical equipment without
11
Guidelines for safe and effi cient use
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.
Precautions
• Use a wireless hands-free system (headphone, headset) with a low power Bluetooth emitter.
12
• Keep your calls short or send text message (SMS) instead. This advice applies especially to children, adolescents and pregnant women.
• Use the cell phone in good quality network signal.
• People having active medical implants should preferably keep the cell phone at least 15cms away from the implant
.
Efficient phone operation
Electronic devices
All mobile phones may receive interference, which could affect their performance.
Do not use your mobile phone near medical
equipment without asking permission. Avoid placing the phone over pacemakers, for example, in your breast pocket.
Some hearing aids could be disturbed by
mobile phones.
Minor interference may affect TVs, radios,

13
Guidelines for safe and effi cient use
When your vehicle is equipped with an
air bag, do not obstruct it 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 while out and
about, please ensure the volume is at a reasonable level so that you are aware of your surroundings. This is particularly important near roads.
Avoid damage to your hearing
Damage to your hearing can occur if you are
14
exposed to loud sound 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 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 it or attempt to remove it. Stop using your mobile device until the
glass is replaced by an authorised service provider.
Blasting areas
Do not use the phone where blasting is in progress. Observe restrictions and follow any regulations or standards.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Do not use your phone at a refuelling
point.
Do not use it near fuel or chemicals.
15
Guidelines for safe and effi cient use
Do not transport or store flammable
gas, liquid or explosives in the same compartment in your vehicle as your mobile phone or accessories.
In aircraft
Wireless devices can cause interference in aircraft.
Turn your mobile phone off before
boarding any aircraft.
Do not use it on the ground without
permission from the crew.
16
Children
Keep the phone in a safe place out of the reach of small children. It includes small parts which may cause choking if detached and swallowed.
Emergency calls
Emergency calls may not be available on all mobile networks. Therefore you should never depend solely on your phone to make emergency calls. Check with your local service provider.
Battery information and care
You do not need to completely discharge
the battery before recharging it. Unlike other battery systems, there is no memory effect that could compromise the battery's performance.
Only use LG batteries and chargers. LG
chargers are designed to maximise battery life.
Do not disassemble or short-circuit the
battery.
Keep the battery's metal contacts clean.
Replace the battery when it no longer
gives acceptable performance. The battery pack can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.
Recharge the battery if it has not been
used for a long time, to maximise usability.
Do not expose the battery charger to
direct sunlight or use it in areas with high humidity such as bathrooms.
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold
places, as this may reduce battery performance.
There is a risk of explosion if the battery is
17
Guidelines for safe and effi cient use
replaced with the wrong type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the
manufacturer's instructions. Please recycle when possible. Do not dispose of it as household waste.
If you need to replace the battery, take it
to the nearest authorised LG Electronics service point or dealer for assistance.
Always unplug the charger from the wall
socket after the phone is fully charged to prevent the charger using power unnecessarily.
Actual battery life will depend on network
18
configuration, product settings, usage patterns and battery and environmental conditions.
