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 authorised 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-H860 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 2 W/kg averaged over 10 g of tissue.
The highest SAR value for this model phone tested for use at the ear is
1.400 W/kg (1g) and when worn on the body is 0.682 W/Kg (1g) at 15 mm, which is 100% compliant with Indian Standards and Safe.
5
This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use
position against the ear or when positioned at least 15 mm 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 15 mm 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.
Product care and maintenance
Always use genuine LG batteries, chargers and accessories approved for use
with this particular device model. The use of any other types may void any approval or warranty applying to the device and may be dangerous.
Some contents and illustrations may differ from your device without prior
notice.
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).

7Guidelines for safe and efficient use
Precautions
Use a wireless hands-free system (headphone, headset) with a low power
Bluetooth emitter.
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 15 cm away from the implant.
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.
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving
conditions so require.
RF energy may affect some electronic systems in your vehicle such as car
stereos and safety equipment.
When 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.
8Guidelines for safe and efficient use
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.
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.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Do not use your phone at a refueling point.
Do not use near fuel or chemicals.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the same
compartment of your vehicle as your mobile phone or accessories.
9Guidelines for safe and efficient use
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.
Children
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.
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 maximise the
battery life.
Do not disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
Keep the metal contacts of the battery clean.
Replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. The
battery pack may 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 high humidity,
such as in the bathroom.
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, as this may deteriorate battery
performance.
10Guidelines for safe and efficient use
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used
batteries according to the instructions.
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 save unnecessary power consumption of the charger.
Actual battery life will depend on network configuration, product settings,
usage patterns, battery and environmental conditions.
Make sure that no sharp-edged items such as animal’s teeth or nails, come into
contact with the battery. This could cause a fire.

Register your fingerprint on your device first before using the fingerprint recognition function.
You can use the fingerprint recognition function in the following cases:
To unlock the screen
To view the locked content in Gallery or QuickMemo+
When confirming a purchase or signing in to an app, identify yourself by simply touching the fingerprint sensor.
Your fingerprint never changes for your whole life, and everyone has a
unique fingerprint. Therefore, your fingerprint can be used by the device for user identification. Very similar fingerprints from different users may be recognised by the fingerprint sensor as the same fingerprint. To enhance the device security, set the screen lock to a pattern, PIN or password.
If your fingerprint is unrecognised or if you forget the backup PIN,
bring your device to the nearest LG Customer Service Centre and both register a fingerprint and create a new backup PIN.
Precautions for fingerprint recognition
Fingerprint recognition accuracy may decrease. To maximise recognition accuracy, check the following before using the device.
The device's Power/Lock key has a fingerprint sensor. Ensure that the
Power/Lock key is not damaged by a metallic object, such as coin or key.
When water, dust or other foreign substance are on the Power/Lock
key or your finger, the fingerprint registration or recognition may not work. Clean and dry your finger before having the fingerprint recognised.
