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)is2W/kgaveragedover10goftissue.
• The highest SAR value for this model tested for use at the ear is 0.482 W/kg
(10g)andwhenwornonthebodyis1.587W/kg(10g).
• This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use
positionagainsttheearorwhenpositionedatleast5mmawayfromthebody.
When a carry case, belt clip or holder is used for body-worn operation, it should
notcontainmetalandshouldpositiontheproductatleast5mmawayfrom
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.
7Guidelines for safe and efficient use
Product care and maintenance

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

8Guidelines for safe and efficient use
• 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.

• 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.
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.

• Li-Ion Battery is a hazardous component which can cause injury.
• Battery replacement by a non-qualified professional can cause damage
to your device.
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.
12Guidelines for safe and efficient use

such as in the bathroom.
• Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, as this may deteriorate battery
performance.
• 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 device 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 claws, come
into contact with the battery. This could cause a fire.
Driver Safety Tips
Your mobile telephone gives you the powerful ability to communicate almost
anywhere, anytime, but an important responsibility accompanies the benefits of
mobile phones, one that every user must uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. When using your mobile
phone behind the wheel of a car, practice good common sense and remember the
following tips:
• Use a hands free device to add an additional layer of convenience and safety to
your wireless phone.
• Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary,
suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet,
snow, ice and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
• Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Typing up a “to
do” list or flipping through your address book takes attention away from your
primary responsibility of driving safely.
• Place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan
calls when you will not be driving.
13Guidelines for safe and efficient use
• Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting.
Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend
conversations that have the potential to divert your attention from the road.
• Use your mobile phone to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto
accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger,
call the emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.
• If you see a broken down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic
signal, a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you
know to be stolen, call roadside assistance, local traffic authority or police
station.
Securing personal information
• Make sure to protect your personal information to prevent data leakage or
misuse of sensitive information.
• Always back up important data while using the device. LG is not responsible for
any data loss.
• Make sure to back up all data and reset the device when disposing of the device
to prevent any misuse of sensitive information.
• Read the permission screen carefully while downloading applications.
• Be cautious using the applications that have access to multiple functions or to
your personal information.
• Check your personal accounts regularly. If you find any sign of misuse of your
personal information, ask your service provider to delete or change your account
information.
• If your device is lost or stolen, change the password of your account to secure
your personal information.
• Do not use applications from unknown sources.

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.
• 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.
Custom-designed Features 45
• 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.

This feature allows you to conveniently update the firmware on your
phone to a newer version from the Internet without needing to visit a
service centre. This feature will only be available if and when LG makes a
newer firmware version available for your device.
Because the mobile phone firmware update requires the user’s full
attention for the duration of the update process, please make sure
you check all instructions and notes that appear at each step before
proceeding. Please note that removing the USB cable during the upgrade
may seriously damage your mobile phone.
• LG reserves the right to make firmware updates available only for
selected models at its own discretion and does not guarantee the
availability of the newer version of the firmware for all handset models.
Appendix 173

Anti-Theft Guide
Set up your device to prevent other people from using it if it's been reset
to factory settings without your permission. For example, if your device is
lost, stolen, or wiped, only someone with your Google Account or screen
lock information can use the device.
All you need to make sure your device is protected is:
• Set a screen lock: If your device is lost or stolen but you have a screen
lock set, the device can't be erased using the Settings menu unless
your screen is unlocked.
• Add your Google Account on your device: If your device is wiped but
you have your Google Account on it, the device can't finish the setup
process until your Google Account information is entered again.
After your device is protected, you'll need to either unlock your screen or
enter your Google Account password if you need to do a factory reset.
This ensures that you or someone you trust is doing the reset.
• Do not forget your Google Account and password you had added to
your device prior to performing a factory reset. If you can't provide the
account information during the setup process, you won't be able to use
the device at all after performing the factory reset.
