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.

Important information about the device

• Device apps and services are subject to change or cancellation without notice,

depending on the provider’s situation and the software version.

• When the device is turned on for the first time, an initial configuration takes

place. The first booting time may be longer than usual.

Read before use

• To purchase optional items, contact the LG Customer Information Centre for

Exposure to radio frequency energy

Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information.
This device 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 device transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all used frequency bands.

• While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various LG device

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.

(10g)andwhenwornonthebodyis1.380W/Kg(10g).

• This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use

position against the ear or when positioned at least 5 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 5 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.

Device encryption

Encrypting your device

By default, data is encrypted before saving on the device to protect
the data. It is possible to read, write and copy data even when device
encryption is set. It is also possible to display a user confirmation prompt
when the power is turned on by using lock settings while in lock screen
mode.

Precautions for device encryption

You can use Secure start-up to increase your device's protection level.

Basic Functions 42

• If Secure start-up is turned on and an incorrect password is entered

more than a specified number of times, the device will automatically
initialise.

• If you forget your decryption password, you must initialise the device to

use it again. Initialisation will delete all data saved before initialisation.

• Encryption takes place when the device boots for the first time after a

factory reset. Stopping encryption before it is complete may damage
data.

Memory card encryption

encrypted data in the memory card cannot be accessed from another
device.

Basic Functions 43

• To encrypt the memory card, make sure that a screen lock is set using

a PIN or password.

• Once memory card encryption starts, some functions are not available.

• If the device is turned off while encryption is underway, the encryption

process will fail, and some data may be damaged. Therefore, be sure to
check whether the battery level is sufficient before starting encryption.

• Encrypted files are accessible only from the device where the files were

encrypted.

• The encrypted memory card cannot be used on another LG device. To

use the encrypted memory card on another mobile device, initialise the
card.

• You can activate memory card encryption even when no memory card

is installed into the device. Any memory card that is installed after
encryption will automatically be encrypted.
