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
available dealers.
• The appearance and specifications of the device are subject to change without
notice.
• Do not use LG products for other purposes than those originally intended.
Using non-certified apps or software may damage the device and this is not covered by warranty.

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.
• The highest SAR value for this model tested for use at the ear is 0.665 W/kg
(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.
Product care and maintenance

with this particular device model. The use of any other types may invalidate 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.
6Guidelines for safe and efficient use
