Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal

Yourwirelesshandheldportabletelephoneis alowpowerradiotransmitterand receiver. Whenit isON,itreceivesandalsosends outradiofrequency(RF) signals.

InAugust, 1996,the FederalCommunicationsCommissions (FCC) adopted RFexposure guidelineswithsafetylevelsfor handheldwireless phones.Those

guidelinesareconsistentwith thesafetystandards previouslysetby bothU.S.and internationalstandards bodies:

ANSIC95.1(1992) *

NCRPReport86 (1986) ICNIRP(1996)

Those standardswerebasedoncomprehensiveand periodicevaluationsofthe relevantscientific literature. For example,over 120scientists, engineers, and physiciansfromuniversities,government healthagencies, and industryreviewed the available body of researchto developtheANSIStandard (C95.1).

Thedesignofyour phonecomplies withthe FCC guidelines(andthose standards).

Suggestions for a more efficient operation

Foryourphone tooperate mostefficiently:

Safetyinstructions

•Donottouchtheantenna unnecessarily,whenthe phoneisinuse.The contact withthe antennaaffectscall quality, andmay causethe phoneto operateata higher power levelthan otherwisewouldbe need.

Driving

Checkthe lawsandregulationsrelatedtotheuseofwireless phones in theareas whereyoudrive. Alwaysobey these regulations.Also,ifusingyourphone while driving,make sure to:

•Pay fullattentionto driving; drivingsafely isyourfirst responsibility;

•Use hands-freeoperation, if available;

•Pull offtheroadand park, beforemakingor answeringa call,if driving conditionsdemandso.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronicequipmentisshieldedfromRFsignals.

However,certain electronicequipmentmay not beshieldedagainstthe RFsignals fromyourwirelessphone.

Pacemaker

TheMedicalIndustryManufacturersAssociationrecommendsaminimumdistance of fifteen(15)centimeters,orsix(6)inches,between ahandheldwirelessphone andapacemaker,in orderto avoidpotential interference between them.

These advicesare consistentwithindependent researches, andwith recommendationsbased onwirelesstechnology research.

People withpacemakersshould:

•Alwayskeep theproduct more thansix (6)inches from their pacemakerwhen theproduct isturnedON.

•Notcarrythephoneina shirtpocket.

•Usetheear oppositetothe pacemaker, tominimize thepotentialinterference.

Fingerprint recognition

Fingerprint recognition overview

You must 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 the Gallery or QuickMemo+.

•Confirm a purchase by signing in to an app or identifying yourself with your fingerprint.

• 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.

•If the device cannot detect your fingerprint, or you forgot the value specified for registration, visit the nearest LG Customer Service Centre with your device and ID card.

Precautions for fingerprint recognition

Fingerprint recognition accuracy may decrease due to a number of reasons. To maximise the recognition accuracy, check the following before using the device.

•The device has a fingerprint sensor. Ensure that the fingerprint sensor is not damaged by a metallic object, such as coin or key.

•When water, dust or other foreign substance is on the fingerprint sensor or your finger, the fingerprint registration or recognition may not work. Clean and dry your finger before having the fingerprint recognised.

•A fingerprint may not be recognised properly if the surface of your finger has a scar or is not smooth due to being soaked in water.

Custom-designed Features

•If you bend your finger or use the fingertip only, your fingerprint may not be recognised. Make sure that your finger covers the entire surface of the fingerprint sensor.

•Scan only one finger for each registration. Scanning more than one finger may affect fingerprint registration and recognition.

•The device may generate static electricity if the surrounding air is dry. If the surrounding air is dry, avoid scanning fingerprints, or touch a metallic object such as coin or key before scanning fingerprints to remove static electricity.

Registering fingerprints

You can register and save your fingerprint on the device to use fingerprint identification.

1 Tap Settings General Lock screen & security Fingerprints.

• A lock screen must be set in order to be able to use this feature.

•If the screen lock is not active, configure the lock screen by following the on-screen instructions. See Setting a screen lock for details.

2Locate the fingerprint sensor on the back of the device and gently put your finger on it to register the fingerprint.

• Gently press the fingerprint sensor so that the sensor can recognise your fingerprint.

•Ensure that your fingertip covers the entire surface of the fingerprint sensor.
