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 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
RadiationProtection(ICNIRP)is2 W/kgaveragedover10 goftissue.
•The highest SAR value for this model tested for use at the ear is 0.357 W/kg
(10 g)andwhenwornonthebodyis1.304 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.

•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 device in any area where you are required to by special regulations. For example, do not use your device in hospitals as it may affect sensitive medical equipment.
•Do not handle the device with wet hands while it is being charged. It may cause an electric shock and can seriously damage your device.
•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).
•Do not charge the device when it is on soft furnishings.
•The device should be charged in a well ventilated area.
•Do not subject this unit to excessive smoke or dust.
•Do not keep the device next to credit cards or transport tickets; it can affect the information on the magnetic strips.

Guidelines for safe and efficient use |
7 |
•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 device 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 device during or immediately after operation.
•If your device gets wet, immediately unplug it to dry off completely. Do not attempt to accelerate the drying process with an external heating source, such as an oven, microwave or hair dryer.
•The liquid in your wet device, changes the colour of the product label inside your device. Damage to your device as a result of exposure to liquid is not covered under your warranty.
•A mobile device requires proper air circulation in order to dissipate heat. Direct skin contact and inadequate circulation of air flow to the device may cause the device to overheat. The device must be at least 1.0cm from between the user’s body.
•Prevent dust of any other foreign substances from getting into the Charger/ USB cable port. It may cause heat or fire.
•Avoid exposing the device to low air pressure at high altitude.
•Do not expose the device to extremely low air pressure. Otherwise, it can cause explosion of the battery or leakage of flammable liquid or gas.
•Please ensure that the product does not get in contact with liquid. Do not use or recharge the product if it is wet. Once the product becomes wet, the liquid damage indicator changes color. Please note that this will limit you from receiving any free-of-charge repair services provided under warranty.

Efficient device operation
Electronics devices
All devices may receive interference, which could affect performance.
•Do not use your device near medical equipment without requesting permission. Please consult your doctor to determine if operation of your device may interfere with the operation of your medical device.
•Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that you leave at least 15 cm of space between other devices and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
•This device may produce a bright or flashing light.
•Some hearing aids might be disturbed by devices.
•Minor interference may affect TVs, radios, PCs etc.
•Useyourdeviceintemperaturesbetween0 ºCand35 ºC,ifpossible.Exposing your device to extremely low or high temperatures may result in damage, malfunction, or even explosion.
Road safety
Check the laws and regulations on the use of devices in the area when you drive.
•Do not use a hand-held device 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.
Guidelines for safe and efficient use |
9 |
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 device are made of glass. This glass could break if your 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 device until the glass is replaced by an authorised service provider.
Blasting area
Do not use the device where blasting is in progress. Observe restrictions and follow any regulations or rules.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
•Do not use your device 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 device or accessories.
Guidelines for safe and efficient use |
10 |

•Turn your device off before boarding any aircraft.
•Do not use it on the ground without permission from the crew.
Children
Keep the device 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 device for emergency calls. Check with your local service provider.
